We hosted a party for around 40 people in October, with food and beverage service provided by Kraving Melodies. They were fantastic! The food was delicious and they we very easy to work with, responsive, flexible and real professionals. We highly recommend them and would definitely use Jerron and Lauren again.

I talked over a few menu options with Jerron. I explained that there were more than 40 guests invited and 40 definite eaters at that moment. He suggested 3 mains based on the age range of guests coming, which were Salmon, Roasted Chicken and Talapia. He then had 2 appetizer suggestions, which were, Cajun Shrimp Scampi and Strawberry Spinach Salad. Then 2 Main/Sides., whic were Roasted Potatoes, Mixed Veggies of Cauliflower, carrots and broccoli. People went back for seconds. There was more than enough tasty food and absolutely nothing was left behind. I think that the completely empty plates spoke to the awesome food supplied. It was truly a meal that people loved and there were so many compliments. My only regret is that rather than picking up the food I had had Jerron serve his food. He should have heard the compliments.

This was a bridal shower for my niece. I talk to these chefs and told them that I want this event to be extra special . They told me ‘no problem Teresa everything will be great’! I asked him what time they were gonna be at my home and They said about 12 -12:30pm because most of the food will be prepared at their home and they will bring it with them. Well, they showed up about 12:45 with absolutely no food Booze on the lady chef breath and told me that they had to go shopping. The two chefs went shopping and came back a little bit after two when all my guests were arriving. there was absolutely no food prepared ,the chef lady disappeared for like an hour. She was drunk ! Three of my company left, and the other half were very very patient but , pretty disgusted on how things turned out. No one ate until 6 PM. Three hors d’oeuvres were never made . I paid these chefs $1600 for all this chaos. I totally forgot that I gave them $1000 ahead of time and I want that thousand dollars back. I probably will never see it again but, I hope that no one else ever has to go through what I went through for this bridal shower. That was supposed to be extra special. I must say I’m very upset about this and just devastated and very embarrassed. I will never use kraving melodies ever hear again ! I’ll never use Thumbtack again! Kraving melodies should be ashamed of themselves. I would never recommend them to anyone! I would’ve had better success buying 15 pizzas. I have to say that the man chef is a good chef the 4 hors d’oeuvres that we finally did get were very good ! I had this bridal shower on June 24th and I’m still very upset and can’t get this whole terrible ordeal out of my mind. I feel like I got totally ripped off! 😔

Details: Shower (baby, bridal, etc.) • 11 - 20 guests • Cocktail hour / hors d'oeuvres • I'm flexible • Italian • I'm flexible • Only once • My home, venue, etc.
