We recently hired Chef Mel's catering service to provide breakfast and lunch for our C-suite team during their visit to our office last week, and we couldn't be more impressed. The food was absolutely spectacular—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Our executives were thrilled with every meal, praising the quality and taste. The service was exceptionally professional. Chef Mel is incredibly talented and went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. Her culinary skills and attention to detail truly made a difference. Chef Mel has now become our go-to caterer whenever our executives are in town. Highly recommended!

Details: Corporate event • Lunch • French • Family style • No, drop off only • Office • No kitchen • Fewer than 20 guests • Disposable plates, utensils, and cups • Premium (high end ingredients)

Mel is amazing! She did the food for my daughters sweet sixteen and it was delicious. She was very responsive to me and all my questions. Her her professionalism is unmatched. We will definitely be using her again in the future. Not only was the food delicious and top quality, but it was far cheaper than other caterers I had checked with. You will not regret using Mel's table for sure!

We hired Chef Mel for a few weeks while I was recovering from surgery, and she was truly a lifesaver! She handled breakfast and dinner for our family and made the whole process so easy from picking our meals, the packaging, and delivering them to our door. The food was delicious, and she was super open to feedback and requests. She even encouraged us to ask for meals we were craving. It was such a relief to have someone we could trust during that time. Highly recommend!
