Although we've only had a food tasting for our wedding, I have to say, they were very professional! The food was great! Seasoned to perfection! The wait staff was great, and they were in training. This young lady has a very bright future ahead of her! She's going to be someone's celebrity or private chef one day soon! I know her family is proud of her!

Great service and follow-up. One big suggestion: When serving the appetizers, I suggest offering a napkin or small plate with the chosen appetizer. The sliders and deviled eggs can be a bit challenging without one.

I worked with Miyah from Melanin Bistro with not much time to plan my event and she was very responsive and very helpful with the questions I had. Our decor was beautiful and our food was undeniable ! We appreciate the dedication Miyah puts into her work.
