Hired on Thumbtack

My wife and I hired Mary and her team to cater our 60-person outdoor wedding this September and she was amazing to work with. The options she gave us for dinner were much more interesting than you'd see at a normal wedding (chicken picatta, red-wine braised short ribs and eggplant parm for dinner!!!) and she was flexible and helpful during the menu-creation process. She was also very transparent about the price and worked within our budget without trying too add more to the bill or upsell us on different options. She was also happy to accomodate a couple of our vegan guests with their own personal plates. On the day of the wedding, Mary was professional and was able to create a feast in our tiny little kitchen. Her team was friendly, funny, and a pleasure to work with. Most importantly, Mary's food was delicious. From the passed appetizers to the buffet dinner to the wedding cake and dessert, all of our guests raved about how tasty the food was and how it far exceeded their expectations of "wedding food." I would hire Mary again in a heartbeat for any event and would encourage anyone considering working with her to do it before someone else does!

Mary catered a 30th birthday/bachelorette dinner for my sister’s bachelorette party and I can’t recommend her enough! She spoke with me on the phone when we were planning the menu and knew exactly what we were looking for. She prepared an incredible 4 course meal with appetizers, salad, main course and dessert. Each course was perfectly prepared and absolutely DELICIOUS! Not only was the good amazing but Mary was so efficient and left the kitchen perfectly clean and started the dishwasher. Thank you Mary - this truly was the highlight of the weekend!

Mary did an eight person dinner party for us and it was fantastic. She was very responsive during the planning process and her food and presentation were both top notch. She left everything just as she found it and overall just did a great job, I would highly recommend hiring her for your next event or party!

Mary and her team were SO awesome. Not only was the food incredible, they were timely, thorough (prep, cooking and cleaning up), and talkative/friendly. The food was honestly so delicious, we've all been talking about it ever since!
