I hired MCG Events for my husbands 40th birthday and I would hire them again for any occasion. Lindsey was great on responsiveness to messages and adaptability including the requests on altering of the menu, the price, the ingredients and equipment used. The food was AMAZING made by Chef Chris and the guests could not stop raving about it. We had a Taco bar with Taco’s made fresh on the spot for our guests. We also had a bartender that lindsey set up as well for us which turned out great and convenient for the guests to enjoy the open bar service. Thank you again for adding a wonderful experience to my husband’s special day.

Both Lindsey and Chris did a fabulous job for my scientific meeting reception on March 25, 2024. Chris arrived on time and his dishes from proteins of meatballs and chicken on the skewers to dessert of pistachio baklava were cooked to perfection. The herb salad dressing was extremely light and tasty with the garden vegetables. Everything was delicious and delightful. I highly recommend MCG Catering for your next event. Thank you Chris and Lindsey.

Hands down the best wedding food I’ve ever had! I loved working with Lindsey and Chris. They hand crafted a menu to our taste once we provided a budget. We felt it was worth every penny. My guests didn’t stop talking about the food for days after. I couldn’t have asked for a better group for our micro wedding - thank you so so much ❤️

MCG events was great to work with - super prompt and responsive and very professional. They were able to work with me and my budget to create a lovely experience. We hired them for a 40th birthday party and was a great experience. Started with a amazing grazing board, shrimp succotash and salmon with a pea risotto that was very filling. Chef cleaned up everything afterward which was the best part!
