Today I helped serve at a beautiful wedding for some lovely friends that was almost completely…read moreruined by Urban Chef. I'm at a loss for words at how unprofessional Rachel and her partner were/are and to be frank, I can't believe they've stayed in business this long. The stress that they put on all of the coordinators, vendors, guests, family and most importantly, the bride and groom prior to the event and during the event was disheartening at best. Where to begin... As the time ticked towards the start of the wedding, there was no sign of Rachel or her team. Multiple panicked phone calls were made over a 3 hour time span to her, none of which she responded to. We all figured she was going to be a no-show so we started gathering volunteers to make Costco runs so that there would be some sort of food to eat. When she finally answered, she rattled off excuse after excuse as to why she was not there yet, none of which seemed the least bit legit (including "the sim card in my phone broke"). But she assured us that she was on her way and would be there soon. An HOUR LATER, she finally arrived (about 10 minutes BEFORE dinner was to begin). She showed up solo with minimal decorations and zero food. Food ended up arriving in a different vehicle much later which just added more stress on an already stressful situation. Now you would think that the food would be prepped prior to the wedding. Nope... fruit was not sliced and items were missing. One guest even had to go and buy salad dressing and syrup because she forgot that, as well. At this point, the guests were getting slightly impatient and hangry. Since the dining room was rapidly being decorated by volunteers (doing the job of the catering company), the guests had to wait outside in the scorching sun for an absorbent amount of time until it was done. Because of the time crunch for the venue curfew, we had to go ahead with the toasts and first dance outside on a patch of dirt. The couple and the guests made the most of it, but as a fellow vendor, I thought it was embarrassing that it had come to that point. The food was mediocre at best. The salad was a pile of kale with light dressing and as I was taking a bite, I noticed a fleck of aluminum foil in the kale leafs. The waffles were cold and she ran out of bacon, too. The buffet looked unpresentable, which of course was no surprise given the lack of effort in preparation. Honestly, it looked and tasted like high school cafeteria food. We all made the most of the situation and ended up having a great time by the end (thanks to really good music and a delightful couple). But Urban Chef was a catastrophe and an embarrassment. It doesn't surprise me from the other Yelp reviews that say she has been in small claims court with past and current customers. She's running a shady business, teetering on a scam. As a vendor myself, I have worked plenty of events and weddings with fantastic catering companies who care about who they are serving. Urban Chef is not one of them.

I really like Rachel. I hate that I have to give 2 stars about our experience with The Urban Chef. When we put our $1000 deposit down in the end of December for our wedding, we were very excited as our tasting we had just had with Rachel was exceptional and we found her knowledge great and prices very reasonable. A couple days later I received an additional charge for $645 on my credit card. I could not get ahold of Rachel or her assistant Alicia for a whole week about this charge. When I finally heard back I was informed that it was a mistake and was supposed to be for another event and a promise to get my money returned to me. I never received that money back, so about a month a half away from the wedding we just agreed to put it toward my final bill. There were also some problems with the final bill as after I had paid our final bill a week before the event, I was informed that they had not charged me enough for the rentals they had so I would have to pay again. This all happened the day before my wedding. The day of the wedding, the food was good but multiple family and friends have informed me (after my wedding) that the bartender was rude. Rachel had to have the bartender come and apologize to my dad for making an inappropriate joke to him that night. My father-in-law had also bought us a nice bottle of champagne for our toast and was reassured that they had served my spouse and I the champagne for our toast. That did not happen, they had served us the champagne everyone else had. They also missed giving 2 whole tables champagne for our toast. If there are no problems that come up for your event, you should be fine with the Urban Chef. But getting in communication when there is an urgent problem that needs to be resolved was practically impossible. I would also recommend working on professionalism with some of the serving staff.

I don't hold that against them because the organizer should've had a hotspot for the event, so that's not on them. However, I ran my card a few times and the last time I did it, it worked, but the cashier added a tip of $8.42. Why would I tip that much when I was in line for so long and they weren't bringing food out to my table or anything. Of course I would tip something, but the amount should be my choice, not theirs. Add to that the amount of food you get for the price they charge is stingy. I got the Kamayan plate which is 4 lumpias, two scoops of macaroni salad, rice, a half cup of what was supposed to be stew but was more like soup and a fist sized lump of vegan pancit. $35 for no meat? So I also got the bbq plate and it was small too. In spite of the tiny portions, and the long wait I was super nice to the cashier and even offered to let her keep my phone adapter when she was having connectivity problems. The whole time I didn't complain and was very understanding, but tip stealing just put me over the edge. Little did I know that I'd be robbed two ways. That's what you get for being nice. Now I gotta go to my bank to dispute the tip and I have to check my dad's credit card because we ran it through the scanner twice and I have a bad feeling they might have somehow managed to charge us those times too. Unreal. Avoid these guys like the plague.
