Hired on Thumbtack

I work for a large apartment community. We decided, very last minute, to host a catered BBQ for our residents and were scrambling to find a caterer with about 2 weeks to pull everything together. I managed to find Lori on Thumbtack and she was immediately very responsive and professional. She set up a great menu for our residents and gave us an unbeatable price. The day of the event, there was a little miscommunication on what time we were to start (this is why I did not check punctuality, I wanted to be honest, but also emphasize that it was a misunderstanding and not just her staff showing up late). Her staff got here with less time than planned to set up and start cooking and they FLEW getting everything set up and ready to go. In the end, we were only behind by about half an hour and no one seemed to really notice or mind. The food was delicious, very high quality, and her staff was amazing, very efficient, kind and professional. I cannot say enough good things about this experience and would highly recommend Lori for any sort of catering event. She knows how to take care of her customers! Thank you so much Lori for making this a memorable event for our community! If we do decide to cater another event in the future, we are definitely coming back to you!

We wanted to cater an event for several of our accounts during a conference in another state. Lori helped us with the planning and catering. The event was set up well and the food was delicious!

Lori's team - Cindy and Ben - were simply incredible. Every step of the way was a great experience: from designing a unique menu with Lori in preparation for our micro-wedding in our own home, communication leading up to the event, arrival and set-up by Cindy and her team, the absolutely delicious food cooked by the team, to managing everything during our wedding, and leaving our home spotless clean - it was perfect. Cindy and Ben even stopped our dog from eating our whole wedding cake (he got a few licks). The best thing was that Lori's team worked with our schedule, communicated clearly without ever intruding in our celebrations, made adjustments to how they served the food, and managed our champagne toasts, our cake-cutting (and serving), and cleaned everything whenever they had a free minute. I can't stress enough how professional Lori's team was, and how friendly, forthcoming, helpful, and stress-free they were. They made our micro-wedding special. The food was absolutely incredible, high-quality, delicious and tasty, everything was cooked (and served) to perfection - exactly how we imagined it. THANK YOU to everyone - Lori, Cindy, Ben and her team, who helped make our day unforgettable.

Lori was great. I had a tight timeline and she made it happen with ease. She also followed up after the event to make sure everything went well. I will use her service again.
