Report
I have used C&C for all my events. I just used them for my wedding. While the food was good, the service was terrible. My mother found 2 of the waiters hiding trays of food under their coats towards the end of the night. This is food we paid for. Why in the world would someone do that, especially at a wedding?! About 6 trays of food were uncovered. Classless and caddy. I'll recommend the food, no doubt! But the service-beware!

Report
The office staff were always helpful and informative. When placing our order we asked about their popular dishes. They were correct. Everyone loved the rice balls and the penne alla vodka. The food we ordered was enjoyed by ALL. The wait staff that assisted at our event were on time, wonderful to us and our guest, professional and attentive. The only thing I'd change was that I had ordered too much food for our event. I was left with food and about half my guest had taken food home.
