Our experience was absolutely delightful. The food was top-notch and the interaction was also top-notch. Josh was very professional as was his server. We will definitely use him again. Thank you very much for making our 30 year anniversary when we will not soon forget.

Josh is amazing! He’s so easy to work with on menu and wine pairings. Everything was made from scratch and all of it was excellent. Provided a menu, flowers and candles. First class experience. Will hire him every time we are in town.

We used Josh to cater a high-end wine dinner for 10 people. The dinner involved matching food with wines from the 80s, and had a number of logistical challenges including multiple dietary restrictions and very specific timing of when wines would be poured and food served. Josh was extremely communicative and very detail oriented. He and his team went above and beyond to make sure everything was just right, and each dish he served was fantastic. Our guests are a hard group to please, and everyone very much enjoyed the meal. I will definitely be using Josh again and I would highly recommend him.
