Sean's crew catered my daughter's wedding yesterday, and everything was amazing! I usually try to…read morebe as "real" as I can in these reviews, but I cannot find one negative thing to say. They were there on time, dressed professionally, and had the food ready to serve when it was supposed to be. I spent some time in the kitchen, and watched as the prepped, and everything was clean and sanitary. Sean did pull a menu item that he said couldn't be properly prepared in the kitchen facility we had available. There was still more than enough food, so none of the guests ever knew. I really appreciated his honesty in doing that-now people walked away saying how amazing the food was, and not talking about that "one thing that didn't work". For me, that makes this a positive, not a negative. Big props also go to his staff-we had an ice cream sundae bar as well, and the person who was hired to serve didn't make it. His folks stepped up and made sure that part went off without a hitch. I would trust this man and his staff to cater any event I had. Oh, and if you're in Lawrenceville, they do a lunch delivery thing that's great!

Hands down, the service was great and the food was excellent! I can honestly say, they delivered quality with my budget of $1,200. The price was reasonable and we got a lot of food.

THE FOOD was just wonderful. It was fresh, hot and abundant. THE STAFF was delightful...ready to help with absolutely everything we needed. CHEF DAVID was the icing on the cake. He was full of personality and moved table to table interacting with those in attendance. He truly spread Christmas joy. We have never had an experience like this (and we do at least 2-3 events a year). This was his 5th event for the day and they all seemed fresh and happy to be there. He has 5 stars on all his reviews for a reason. I highly recommend and will be using him again.

Chef David Catering - the food and the staff - is OUTSTANDING! I'm writing a five-star review…read morelong-distance from Washington, DC, as Chef David and his assistant Lisa went above and beyond to make Mother's Day special for an extended family of 12. One week before Mother's Day, the beloved mother of my best friend died very unexpectedly at home in the Atlanta region. With Mother's Day on the horizon, the only way that my friends and I here in DC felt that we could bring some joy to the family while celebrating their mother was through food... and we decided to cater a meal for everyone on Mother's Day. I did some research, and picked up the phone and called Chef David Catering. A lovely woman named Lisa answered the phone. I took that as a good sign, as my name is Lisa as well. I explained the situation, and asked if they would be able to provide a meal for 12? She said that the typical minimum party order was 25 people, but that Chef David would make an exception based on this particular circumstance. I also was very well aware of how hard it is to source certain ingredients during this COVID-19 pandemic, so I told Lisa that I didn't even have a menu in mind, but could she please speak with Chef David to see what he'd be willing and able to prepare? The next day, Lisa sent me a menu of: - Pan Seared Chicken with Gravy - Baked Salmon in Lemon Dill Sauce - Mixed Vegetables - Wild Rice with Cranberries and Almonds - Mixed Green Salad served with Ranch and Vinaigrette Dressings - Rolls and Butter - Strawberry Shortcake The menu sounded amazing, and I approved it immediately. This afternoon (Mother's Day), Lisa called me to say that Chef David was already on his way to the family's house, and gave me details about the beautiful Strawberry Shortcake cake to share with the family. Chef David arrived at the exact time he promised, and told the family that he'd even made an extra pan of mashed potatoes for everyone to enjoy. A couple of hours later, I heard from my friend, expressing her sincere thanks for the DELICIOUS MEAL, that was above and beyond what her family had expected. It was enjoyed by everyone. Particular favorites were the Baked Salmon and the Wild Rice. There were still plenty of leftovers for them to enjoy over the coming days... but that the lovely cake was devoured by all! THANK YOU Chef David and Lisa for bringing joy back to this family through your delicious food! It was truly appreciated! :)

I would highly…read morerecommend AE catering & events without hesitation, which is not something I do often and unfortunately not something I can say about all of our vendors. Every aspect of the service was impeccable. Allison helped me figure out what I wanted on my menu to make my guest feel welcome and appreciated. She helped me understand which dishes would go well together and remain in my budget, which is another thing most of my vendors didn't seem to comprehend. Allison also considered aesthetics and helped me come up with a menu that was aesthetically pleasing, which it was! The photographer took several photos of the food because it was just so pretty and fancy looking!!! I get hungry just looking at our wedding photos lol on the front end Allison was awesome in helping me think about things I didn't know to think about. She was friendly and a quick responder which is so helpful with you are trying to plan a wedding. Then, on the day of my wedding, it was as if the food magically and beautifully appeared. Allison and her team were almost invisible - super professional appearance and they didn't stand out at all (which was important to me) I trusted AE catering & events with a big part of the most important day of my life and they were awesome. I can't wait to have a reason to use them again!

On top of the outstanding quality and service, the pricing is very fair. I highly recommend AE Catering and will be using their services in the future.

They were one of the less expensive caterers in our search, but you certainly couldn't tell from the experience we had! Cathy was pleasant, flexible and patient as we went through the process of figuring out what we wanted, and we appreciated that she tried to incorporate local and seasonal ingredients into her menus. Both the passed hors d'oeuvres and the buffet service went smoothly, and our guests raved that it was some of the best wedding food they had ever had. Some of the favorites were the beef short ribs, the "shrimp and grits" hors d'oeuvres, and the rice middlins risotto, which was so creamy that bets were being placed on whether or not the grits had made another appearance. We did provide our own desserts and alcohol, which helped with the bill considerably, but everything else was provided. The service was excellent, the timing was perfect, and they had no problem working with our venue, which was on the slightly unusual side (Paris on Ponce). We highly suggest going with Avalon for your next event!
