Thumbtack only let me select three qualities that I liked about Chef Craig, but I would have selected all five! He tackled the challenge of hosting a cooking class with 10 kids for our 10 year old’s birthday party. From the beginning he was very responsive and we had a planning conversation over the phone where we were able to completely customize the experience. On the day of the party, he showed up early and organized, executing a wonderful experience for the kids, with safety as his top priority. The kids made a delicious chicken parm (our son’s choice), flavored sodas and decorated cupcakes. I would highly recommend Craig’s services and happy to be a referral.

Details: 6 - 10 people • I'm flexible • I'm flexible • Child (under 13) • Beginner • My home, venue, etc.

We had the pleasure of hiring this caterer for our office party, and they exceeded every expectation. From the very beginning, communication was clear, professional, and easy, which made planning the event completely stress-free. The food was absolutely outstanding—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. You could tell a lot of skill and attention to detail went into every dish. Our entire team kept going back for seconds What really set them apart, though, was their professionalism and attitude. They were punctual, organized, and handled everything smoothly, allowing us to relax and actually enjoy the party. It’s rare to find someone who delivers both incredible food and such a high level of service.
