The food was absolutely delicious, with a wide variety of flavorful options that truly pleased the crowd. The presentation and overall setup were beautiful and added an elegant touch to the event. Chef Darryl was professional, organized, and a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process. The pricing was very reasonable, and he even offered a wonderful tasting prior to signing the contract, which gave us great confidence in our decision. I highly recommend A Family Affair Catering for any special occasion.

To consider this a legitimate "business" is laughable, just like their food. Arrived over an hour…read morelate to an event and instead of being apologetic, had an attitude. Dinner was for 25 + people and there was barely enough food for 12. Not that this mattered, as EVERYTHING was inedible and there were no plates, cutlery or napkins provided. I take that back, the store brought $2.00 (price still on) cornbread and $16.00 cake were the ONLY items edible. The Mac and Cheese was dry and bland. I will give them credit for it being both overcooked and undercooked all in the same batch. I'm still trying to make sense of that! The only adjective that even remotely describes this Mac and Cheese is "disrespectful". Like, seriously, the disrespect was 10/10. The chicken was undercooked and bland. How do you make jerk chicken bland and soggy? I'm actually curious. The "blackened" salmon was overcooked yet not blackened, creating another "make it make sense" moment. I immediately spat out the greens. They were undercooked, not under-seasoned but literally "not seasoned". Wait, I take that back too, if you count the dirt and grit as seasoning. They should be ashamed of themselves for ripping people off. Pictures don't lie. The fact that they were sent pictures and still stood behind their product tells you all you need to know. Please, please, PLEASE do not let these people ruin your event and more importantly your special moments and memories. There are so many other respectable and legitimate Black-owned catering companies i.e. Ohhs and Ahhs, Henry's, Hitching Post.

She was very professional, kind, cared about my function worked with me to find the right menu and allowed changes with my menu selections up to almost the event, all with a great sense of humor. The food arrived before time. It was hot, smelled great and the delivery person was polite and did a great job at setting up. The food was exceptional, some of the best macaroni and cheese I've had since I've moved to the DMV area. Everything was seasoned just right. All my guest were asking who did the food, typical I would have some food left over, however this time the pans were bone try.

Usually we have Sardi's, which is perfectly fine, but tonight's choice was most def an upgrade. The salmon patties, rice pilaf, and dinner rolls were all DELISH. I wasn't a fan of the kale but that's not a deal breaker ... I still declare #TwoThumbsUp and would absolutely order the rice, salmon patties and dinner rolls for a future event of my own. The flavor of the rice and salmon; the garlic butter spread on the rolls; the unified shape of the salmon patties; the fluffiness of the rice ... all noteworthy. The salmon may have need a bit more binder because they were a little soggy and broke apart too easily during serving buttt that could have just been a hazard of sitting in the serving pan too long. Again, not a deal breaker, just an observation. Unfortunately, my camera didn't eat first this time but please trust me when I say even her presentation was on point. Not sure how many people my school ordered for but there was enough to serve huge portions to all who were there (and, of course, there was a significant amount of attendees who didn't even RSVP). Will definitely personally promote her for a couple of upcoming events. If YOU book Chef April/Reign's Kitchen please tell her you saw it on Yelp and come back to update us!

Knowing that she's a local Washingtonian instantly made me want to support her even more. Chef April is incredibly kind and genuinely passionate about her craft, and rightfully so. Now, let's dive into her food. We hosted a brunch where Chef April prepared shrimp and grits, potatoes, eggs, and waffles. The waffles were like funnel cake; it was absolutely delicious and savory. We didn't even need syrup; they were perfect on their own. But the shrimp and grits... they were incredible! I can't stress enough how amazing they were. I will definitely be booking her again. Don't just walk, run and book her. I'll gladly recommend her to anyone who asks because I believe in quality and taste, and she delivers on both.

It's truly difficult to express how amazing Danny and his staff made our wedding event. As we were working to find a chef for our small wedding reception/garden party, Danny stuck out simply because we liked the pictures of his food, but after we met with him, we knew he was the perfect chef for us. He made us feel comfortable from the start (LGBTQIA+ friendly) and understood our tastes and interests from just a 30 minute intro call. We signed our contract with him several months out from the event, but he always kept in touch to make sure our heads were still in the same place in how we wanted to celebrate our wedding. Moving to the actual event, we hosted ~22 people for a cocktail style garden party. Danny came up with an amazing menu including: - Cheese plate (very high quality cheeses; these leftovers made for spectacular girl dinners) - The popcorn project (very cute apps with a special, Danny-made seasoning I can't stop thinking about) - Guacamole three ways (fabulous) - Black bean mango salsa (so refreshing for an outdoor party) - Pimento cheese dip (if you only have one stationary plate option, you should definitely get this) - Black bean hummus (added to our menu last minute and it did not disappoint) - Gazpacho shots (refreshing and elevated) - Shrimp lollipops (perfect way to start the event) - Scallop ceviche (my wife's favorite dish) - Brisket sliders (my favorite dish) - Mini cupcakes (soooooo cute and the perfect size to allow you to try all of the flavors) - Thin mint drunken milkshakes (a perfect way to cap off the night) For drinks, we had a few signature cocktails, lots of wine, and a few non-alcoholic drinks. Danny has a knack for coming up with differentiated cocktails that still bring together all of the flavors you know and love, just at an elevated level. I highly recommend the Santero (mojito adjacent) and my wife loved his bourbon cocktail. We had a few non-alcoholic drinkers and they loved the blood orange margarita. And beyond the food, Danny's staff was perfect. Jessalyn and Camilla were so warm and welcoming and we couldn't have asked for anyone better. The kitchen was a little tight to begin with, but they made more than do with the resources they had and left the kitchen in better condition than how it started. Danny and his sous chef, Cat, were busy and possibly overwhelmed, but didn't show it at all. The cadence the food was sent out was perfect and we loved that we got to chit chat with the whole staff in between courses. When we first met Danny, we told him that with all of the money in the world, we still would want to have a very small wedding reception with a private chef. Danny's personality, food, staff, etc. etc. made it better than we ever could have anticipated.
