My sister and I hired Kerri Out to cater my other sister's birthday/PhD graduation party and we were so pleased with the food and the service! In fact, many of our guests commented on how wonderful the food tasted and the great service provided by the cater. Perhaps most telling is that Kerri Out managed to impress one of our guests who is a long-time restaurateur in the Annapolis area. Kerri Out provided a variety of desserts for the party as well as some savory dishes such as their pistachio crusted chicken and mini caprese salads (bite size deliciousness). Everything tasted wonderful and was presented well. In addition to the food provided by the cater, my sister and I also wanted to provide a few family favorites such as my Mom's popular crab appetizer and my sister's beloved cheesecake squares. Kerri Out was fine with us supplementing with our own food and in fact, they were accommodating and flexible, in general. It is clear that they are focused on not only providing great food, but also terrific experiences for their cliental. During the party Jessica, a long-time staff member of Kerri Out was on hand for the actual catering and she was a gem! She showed up in professional attire with everything she needed to make our party a success. She had her "to do" list memorized and immediately got to work. As she prepared food, she worked in a calm and expedient manor. I was also pleased with all of the smart questions she asked (Where would you like trash and recycling? Do you have anything special you need me to do tonight? In case your guests are wondering around looking for the powder room, where can I tell them it is located?) It was evident to me from the very first few minutes that she would do a great job. Throughout the night she replenished food, picked up trash and kept the kitchen tidy. It is important to note that she did not need much direction at all and took the initiative to make sure things were moving along smoothly. At the end of the night when the party ended the house was already clean and Jessica and Kerri Out catering were certainly heroes in my book. I would most definitely hire Kerri Out again and I wish Kerri and her staff all the luck in the world with her catering business.

I had my wedding on October 8, 2022 at the National Aquarium catered by the The Classic Catering…read morePeople. Between COVID and having a baby, we had to reschedule our wedding three times. They were super flexible with the changes that we had to make. During these unprecedented times, it was refreshing to work with a company that was understanding of the challenges we were facing with wanting to keep everyone safe, and then again when my baby's due date was a mere 2 weeks after one of the dates we had scheduled. Our experience with planning was fabulous as well. They responded to all of our questions and concerns within a timely manner. They invited us to their location to work with us to come up with a menu. They had a few snacks prepared for my husband and I. They asked several questions about our vision for the wedding, about any allergies or special diets that might require a special meal. They even let us know that they could prepare some staples for a children if we needed (we had no need to take advantage of that). They were also able to ensure that my favorite wine would be available at the event as part of the bar package. Once we had the menu planned, we were able to schedule a tasting for the event a few months out. They encouraged us to invite my in-laws to the event as well (which we did, and my FIL really enjoyed being able to take part in that with us.) They prepared the entire menu for the 3 of us, and confirmed that everything was perfect for our wedding, and it was. They also had linens set out for us to pick from. When I gave them the colors for my wedding, they were able to pick a few different options for us. They also were able to suggest ways to make the linens the most cost effective for us. The day of the wedding went perfectly. Our ceremony was at 7pm, and they arrived to begin setting up at 5pm. They set up for the ceremony. As we walked around the venue for cocktail hour, I was able to spot tables prepared for them to switch the ceremony space to the reception space. This was done within an hour, and went so smoothly. Nobody was standing around waiting for them to switch things over. They also set up my centerpieces, card box, guest book, seating chart, and table numbers. I didn't have to put someone in charge of worrying about that, and was able to have peace of mind that it was taken care of. When packing everything up, they also packed up everything for us as well so we could retrieve it the next day. Every single person I interacted with was super helpful, kind, and respectful. I could not have asked for a better experience.

We used Classic to cater our wedding. To be honest, we feel a bit mixed about the experience. TLDR:…read morewe wound up giving four stars because although our bar situation was a disaster, food is more important and the food was better than most other wedding food. The food - as foodies, we felt like Classic gave us very good wedding food (but it fell short of very good restaurant food). During our tasting, we were pretty blown away by the food -- all the flavors were excellent and all the food was perfectly cooked. Day of, a lot of the food was overcooked, and things were under sauced, so we missed a lot of the flavors from our tasting. The food was certainly better than most other weddings I've been to, but if I would have gotten the food at a restaurant I would have been disappointed. I know it's really difficult to cook in bulk. (FWIW though, people really loved the mashed potatoes -- and were still talking about them a week later.) We were also extremely pleased with how Classic handled dietary restrictions. We had a number of people with restrictions, and everyone was able to eat, and no one got sick. They even worked with us to make our whole menu gluten free so that all of our (many) celiac guests could partake. The drinks - our drinks were a disaster. And I think part of this is because our catering manager switched just a few months before the wedding. Our original catering manager had allowed us to create our own cocktail recipes. We love mixology so it felt very fitting for our wedding. We wanted our wedding to feel like a cocktail bar and not just have the standard wedding cocktail. However, our new catering manager pretty much lost her mind when she heard this, saying it's never done. Our conversations were weird, and we never figured out what the issues were so we assumed it was reluctance to do something different and thought they'd figure it out. However, it seems the issues were the bartenders can barely make a drink. Although we sent VERY specific recipes, i think only one of the bartenders followed them. The first drink I was given when I came down to my cocktail hour was supposed to be a lavender chamomile play on a French 75. But what I was actually given was lemon juice, soda, and gin. I literally spit it out, and had a mild panic attack that my guests were being served undrinkable drinks for our whole cocktail hour. It turns out, that only one bartender was making undrinkable drinks (and they continued to for most of the evening). Another one was making ok drinks, and one was making drinks correctly. No one could remember which bartender was making which drinks, so everyone remarked how inconsistent our drinks were. A number of times people had to toss drinks because they picked the wrong bartender. I was also pretty pissed that although we had confirmed with our planner and classic a half a dozen times that they would pass drinks during cocktail hour, they never did. Afterwards my planner said it was because the drinks were too complicated. But they could have passed wine, or beer, or prebatched drinks (which we thought they were doing). We really didn't want a line at the bar, and there was one, so a month later, I'm still fuming about the disaster that was the bar. I think had we had more time, or better communication from the new catering manager, we could have worked something out that would have worked for us and them. But, instead, trying not to piss us off, I think she gave in knowing they couldn't hold up their end of the bargain. The service - the service (aside from the bar and our catering manager) was good. All the catering staff were very kind, and rushed like crazy to finish our room flip. We appreciated that they designate one server just for the bride and groom! The process - Our process was a bit of a mess because of the catering manager flip. But, were it not for that, I think it would have gone pretty smoothly. Classic are def pros at putting on events. We were happy with the process before the switch. Afterwards, we didn't really jive with the new catering manager, who was much more rigid than the original one. We might have been less off put by this, but, she also wasn't great at communicating the reasons behind her "nos" or "yes, with reservations". Our planner had told us that your classic experience very much depends on your catering manager, and based on our experience with two of them, that seems accurate.

We were fortunate to work with Martin's Crosswinds in Greenbelt in 2009 when they catered the Inaugural events for the Recording Industry Association of America and Montana State Inaugural Ball hosted by our clients. Bringing in Martins to cater these events for some of the most prominent individuals of the Political and Entertainment world proved to be successful. And the 2 hour tasting was nothing short of amazing! So, it goes without saying that we already had an exceptional experience with Martin's and this time was no different. The staff's professionalism and execution of the tasks performed helps to identify your unique value in the event planning arena. From the onset we communicated with Karen Baker and she set the tone for our interaction with the rest of the staff. We understand hospitality positions are often thankless positions but we had to take a moment to say thank you for the incredible service that your staff provided. While, everyone provided amazing service there are those that stood out; Franklin, Shari, Angelica and Nick went above and beyond the call. They were consummate professionals and made our jobs seamless. Franklin executed tasks flawlessly. He was extremely pleasant, professional and personable and we appreciate all that he did. We were thoroughly impressed with the service, décor, venue, food, and most importantly the staff. We will be sure to refer future clients to Valley Mansion
