If I could give these guys 10 stars I would. We had a private wedding with 35 people and from start to finish everything was perfect. The food was some of the best I’ve ever had and everyone could not stop talking about it. The staff was professional and so nice. Would 10/10 hire them again!

We celebrated our 30th Wedding Anniversary with our 4 adult children and 5 grandchildren with this beautiful meal and the cake of my dreams. Our 4 course meal appetizer: Arancini, salad: Brussels Sprouts and Pomegranate Salad, main: Short Rib with Polenta, dessert: Chocolate Soufflé, & Lemon Cake with Lemon Bavarian Cream. The children had Arancini, Fruit salad & Chicken Alfredo. They ate it all and the 2 year old said it was delicious! This was an amazing experience & I plan on using them for future events. Thank you Alexis for making my day come true and to all your wonderful staff and Chef Kurtis, it was absolutely an amazing experience and the food was so Delicious!!!

Great experience! The Phoenix Palate was able to pull together a private dinner party just a few days before the event. The contact person was extremely quick to respond to all communication.
