Chef Elisa is a rock star ! We planned a wedding ten weeks out. We had checked out the preferred vendors for the venue and they were beyond our budget. We checked out a caterer in our budget and got depressed with their proposal. Enter chef Elisa. Chef had a proposal that we could work with. She was able to handle every constraint of our budget and challenging venue as it was outdoors and devoid of a functioning kitchen. The cocktail hour was awesome and our buffet exceeded everyone's expectations. Because of her vast culinary experience Elisa handled every challenge like it wasn't any big deal. I love that she listens and provides what's needed while at the same time gave peace of mind that everything would be great. She wasn't kidding. I like real people who are real straight with me. Chef definitely was. I'm a foodie with a long history of food service earlier in life so without sounding egotistical I can confidently say I know what's good. This event was great thanks to chef Elisa. I know she has the culinary chops to handle any event. Big and small within any budget. She makes it work. My beautiful bride and myself are so happy we found her to handle this day for us. By the time it was over we felt like family. Look no further. She's the real deal. One last thing. Her staff is incredibly helpful and professional. They were courteous throughout and did an amazing job. Thanks chef Elisa !

Let's start with fantastic, that pretty much covers it all. The food produced raves from our guests, especially the potato pancake with smoked salmon sour cream and chive. Not to mention the delicious black olive palmier with warm brie cheese. Great sushi presentation and great sliders and let's not forget the layered chocolate mousse dessert. Chef Elisa was in control and did it all, turn-key, beginning to end. Very professional. We were outside with a large tent and had pre-party weather challenges but she did not let that impact her preparation and delivery. Everything came off smashingly! In buyer beware South Florida, Chef Elisa is someone you may count on and entrust to deliver. Your guests will enjoy and remember your event! Thanks again Elisa, until next time!

Chef Elisa's catering was fantastic. We recently hosted a Christmas Party for roughly 50 people, and chef Elisa, along with her staff, was very professional and accommodating. When we initially consulted with Chef Elisa, she was more than willing to work with our budget while creating a delicious menu. Chef Elisa was always available and quick to respond when presented with questions or requests regarding the menu, staff, or general services being provided. The party itself was a real success, in large part to Chef Elisa and her staff. Chef Elisa arrived 2 hours before the party to set up and prepare the food and bar prior to the guests's arrival. She and her staff were completely self sufficient and at no time required our assistance during this preparation process. Throughout the party, the food was delicious and more importantly, consistently passed to our guests the entire evening. The server and bartender were very attentive and our guests were never hungry nor without a drink. We would absolutely use Chef Elisa's Catering for other events and we look forward to having her back at our house for next year's party.

Chef Elisa and her AMAZING staff was the perfect highlight to my event.  She immediately responded to my needs for estimates, menus and planning. Together we created a custom menu that went above and beyond my expectations (but within my budget), including staffing, decor, dietary limitations and an overall positive presence during my VIP Art Gallery Opening.  I received calls the next day from visitors requesting referrals for our catering team.  Tip:  try the potato pancakes with salmon!  DELISH!
