For the past 2 weeks these wonderful, polite, hardworking people have been spoiling us with their delicious catering! Everyday has been something different from individually packaged lasagna, chicken enchiladas, curry chicken, pot pies, and even chicken lo mein! They always provide a vegan choice along with a very pleasant mixed greens salad! (Not just lettuce and cheese) They top if off with desert too!
Individual wrapped cakes, brownies, and one day even cheesecake (which was my favorite) and sweet or unsweetened tea. Thanks again guys for all your hard work and delicious food while we train out here in these elements!

The food was amazing! We picked Paul Kennedy Catering for our wedding in Savannah, Ga and couldn't have been more happy with the food, presentation, and the timing of everything. For the rehearsal we choose the fajitas bar which was amazing! For the reception we choose the grilled chicken and beef tenderloin which was also amazing! Highly recommend!

Report
Paul Kennedy and his team were absolutely fantastic. We received a ton of compliments on our food and our guests seemed very happy. More importantly, I am from the Savannah area but live out of town, so getting into town for a tasting was very difficult. The staff at Paul Kennedy made themselves available to me at a time they would normally be closed just so that I could taste their food. They were the ONLY caterer I reached out to who did that for me.
At the end of the night, each member of the waitstaff came over to thank me and congratulate me on my wedding. We were also able to bring home leftovers, which is awesome, because the food was awesome. In all, they were an EXCELLENT pick.
