Chef Mike (and Randy) were phenomenal. We hired Chef Mike for our wedding anniversary. We tailored the menu to our desires, and the quality of the food was outstanding. Amazing experience, will definitely use again! Our menu was Spinach Artichoke Dip on Homemade Sourdough Crostini Tuna Tartare Bite on Fried Wonton Truffle Bombs 14 oz Prime Dry Aged N.y Strip, Sea Bass/Halibut, Mixed Greens, carrot slaw and Pomegranate Extra Bread and Butter Tiramsu

Chez Mikey delivered a most delicious meal that was timely, plentiful, beautifully plated, and just overall spectacular. He and assistant, Randy, were friendly, easy to talk to, and so accommodating. We highly enjoyed their service and would definitely hire them again.

We used Mikey for a small graduation party. He came up with a great menu. My daughter has dairy allergies and he was very accommodating. We loved the summer pizzas as appetizers. The halibut was delicious. We also loved the specialty cocktails that Randy served. We definitely will use them again.

Mike catered a private dinner for our anniversary, it was just my husband and I. Since we can't go anywhere it was great to have the restaurant experience at home. Mike and Randy were super professional and cooked outside with safe social distancing observations, including wearing masks. The menu was discussed before hand and the quality was suberb. The price was fair for a 4 course meal with wine pairings. I would highly recommend Chez Mikey and will consider him for future events.

Mike did an outstanding job catering last weekend’s bridal shower on very short notice! Guests devoured the appetizers with speed and alacrity. Consider this one standout example amongst many. There was no outdoor grill available, so Mike prepared Thai marinated chicken satay on a griddle. The chicken was melt-in-your-mouth tender (so often at restaurants the chicken is dry/chewy from overcooking) and the creamy peanut sauce was a perfect blend of smoky and sweet with a spicy kick. To take care of guests with nut allergies, he also prepared a separate batch of satay chicken using teriyaki. The light, sweet and salty teriyaki glaze on the chicken had a distinctive umami flavor, found only when the chef strikes the delicate balance between key ingredients. Next time I will double the order for both.
