About
Hello! We are Ali and Terry with Ali's Personal Chef Service. We are a family owned and operated business located in Kennesaw, Georgia. We have had a background in the food industry for a total of 21 years. We put a lot of thought into your menu, everything from color, to texture and taste, foods should work with each other not compete. There's no enjoyment in that.
We love working with a client in designing a menu for your specific event. We put our heads together in customizing your menu to suit your taste. We then love the shopping, at local stores, farmers markets and at times specialty stores. This allows me to purchase the freshest ingredients possible for the event. We focus on making the experience pleasurable and assisting in removing the stress from the planning process.

We cannot stop raving about working with Allie during our recent event. Her food was fantastic and her service, outstanding. She was so easy to work with throughout the planning process and during the event itself. We highly recommend working with Allie and her team!

Ali was extremely responsive and professional. We scheduled an in-home appointment to discuss our party and view the space. She quickly provided a quote based on our selected menu items (out of a vast list). We found the quote to be quite reasonable. Prior to arrival, she provided a detailed list of preparations which was very helpful to ensure that we cleared out what was necessary for her to prepare and store the food. She and Terry arrived timely and started to work. They were very professional and prepared, which provided us with assurance that we could enjoy ourselves and our guests would be well fed! The food was wonderfully presented and delicious! We had profuse compliments from our guests. They packaged all of the leftovers neatly and cleaned up the kitchen like they were never here. We will definitely use them again and highly recommend them for your party or event.

I cannot say enough about how fantastic Allison and her team were. Leading up to the event, she was very professional and responsive in helping to plan the perfect menu. On the day of, she arrived on time and was so prepared to execute everything. We had several issues with our venue (unrelated to her services) and she navigated them (and helped us navigate them!) with patience and was an asset to us. To say that she went above and beyond to make our party special would be a huge understatement. Most importantly, her food is incredible. Every single guest at our party made a point to let me know how amazing the food was. The spinach artichoke dip is the best I’ve ever had! My guests were so blown away that several have already asked for her information to use her services in the future. Allison and team, thank you so much for your professionalism, patience, kindness, and delicious food. The next time we host an event, there is no question as to who we will use for catering.

I had a brunch for 40 at my home this past weekend. Right from the get-go Ali was very responsive. She has a great variety of offerings and we were able to quickly select the menu. I chose to hire her for service as well, which was great because the food was fresh out of my kitchen and she also decorated my dining table beautifully. Ali came to the house before the event to see the kitchen and how to layout the buffet. She arrived early for the brunch, along with her husband and son, and stayed afterwards to completely clean up. All the food was delicious - beef tenderloin, shrimp creole, grilled vegetables, fresh sliced fruit, and particularly the Kentucky Derby bars. I also asked for bagels and salmon, and Ali added special butters and nut butters to the spreads. Ali is very professional and obviously takes great pride in her work. I will definitely be using her services again in the future!

Working with Allison was a pleasure in every way. Allison is knowledgeable, personable, and passionate about the success of your event. The food was a wonderful combination of flavors beautifully displayed, and abundant! She came early to prepare, was punctual in serving, and left everything in order. I would not change one detail of our experience, and certainly look forward to the opportunity of employing her talents again. Excellent!!!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
For my catering services, each job is different based on factors such as clients budget, and type of service the client wishes. We currently accept cash, checks and credit/debit cards as forms of payments.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to meet with a new customer in person as I feel it best we meet each other, have a conversation which allows us to discuss what their vision is for either an upcoming event or my cooking in their home. By doing so we cover everything and I'm able to prepare and customize menus to suit their palate.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Having owned a catering company with my husband in the past we were successful for catering to parties both large and small
