I cannot say enough great things about Black Dog! The communication leading up to the event was very no pressure. (which is exactly what I needed leading up to my event. ) The food was delicious. every one of my guests has asked for the contact info. We will for sure be using Black Dog in the future!

I hired Black Dog Catering for a private dinner party. Wanted sit down service, and let me tell you, it was exceptional from beginning to end. Communication, planning, and ultimately the dinner was absolutely incredible. The service that comes along with the experience was the cherry on top. All of my guests were so impressed, they all have in mind to hire for future events. 10/10 experience!

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 6 - 10 guests • Dinner • Premium (high end ingredients) • American - formal • Italian • Mexican / Latin American • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc.

The incredible chef Collin!! ✨ I booked him at the very last minute (21 hours before the event), and I still can’t believe how everything turned out. From the moment he arrived, he brought not only flavor, but a calm, cool energy that made everything feel effortless. He was the perfect balance of professionalism and down to earth charm like someone you’ve known forever. Now let’s talk about the food. Every single dish was a hit! Guests were going back for seconds (and thirds!) and I lost count of how many people asked me, “Who made this?!” Whether it was the appetizers, the mains, or the presentation, it was all top tier, yet still warm and comforting. He understood the assignment and then some! Even with short notice, he delivered like a pro. No stress, no drama, just good vibes and even better food. I honestly felt like I had a family member in the kitchen, taking care of everything with love and pride. This chef helped turn our celebration into a truly special event. I’m officially keeping him on speed dial for future gatherings, because when the food is that good and the energy is that right, you don’t let that go.

Details: Regular meal • 11 - 20 guests • Dinner • Standard (basic ingredients) • American - casual • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc.
