They exceeded our expectations for quality, and they were able to work within our price range. We were really hoping to find a caterer that values the healthfulness of the food as well as flavor. It turns out that the food was fresh, healthy, and friendly to guests with special dietary restrictions as well (vegan, vegetarian, no sulfites, gluten-free, etc.). For instance, we ordered the mushroom napoleon (it's all vegetables, no pastry) as an option for our vegan guests, and it turned out to be a big hit with everyone who tried it. Also, the tasting was fun, as it should be, and they really cared about our responses and helped us modify the menu so it was right. As in any project, there was inevitably one small glitch (and even that was a miscommunication on my part) where some guests who hadn't ordered the salmon took it anyway, not leaving enough for those who wanted it, but Tailgators was savvy enough to offer the non-meat eaters the mushroom napoleon instead, which as I said was very well-received, so everyone had something they liked to eat. All in all, with all the stress of planning a major event on our own, dealing with this caterer was really a pleasure.

At the beginning of our planning process, we met with Ati to discuss our specific vision for food and planned a tasting to select our entrees/appetizers - this helped us feel confident in the quality of food and we also had an absolute blast at the tasting! Ati worked with us every step of the way to make sure that everything went off without a hitch, and kept us feeling comfortable throughout the entire process. And truly - whatever you think when you hear 'wedding food' - throw it out the window. This was restaurant quality, amazing food! I've been dreaming about the short rib for days!

I normally prefer family style since you get more food. But the plating was so beautiful we selected plated.

Tad responded via email and shared about his pending commitments and availability and then we set a timeline to touch base again closer to when we'd make concrete arrangements. When we did, he again he shared that he had a big commitment during the day but then as we talked through what I envisioned and needed, he committed to me that based on my order, he would be able to drop it off for my party, himself, if necessary. And truly, that's what he did. He dropped off the food, set it out, put out labels for all the food, etc. He was generous in every way imaginable. Oh, and the food! It was great. Everyone raved. The favorite by far was the spinach artichoke dip. Guests started looking up right away if that was something they could buy from Honest Foods directly. I also ordered smoked salmon, which was delish, and sandwiches, salads, an AMAZING fruit tray, and other dips. One person said that the ceaser dressing was the best she'd ever had and took home the leftovers. Highly recommend. Felt great to support a local business. Tad was responsive, professional, helpful, punctual and overall an amazing person to deal with.

The fruit in the Fresh Fruit Salad was fresh and juicy. We also decided to hire a server to help during the party, and were very pleased with Natalie who helped us so that we could enjoy the party ourselves. All in all, a great experience!

We thought the price was fair for what was included, and they were definitely still cheaper than some comparable options. It was great to hand off all food prep and clean up to some professionals instead of cooking ourselves during the party. They have their system down to a science at this point, and both setup and cleanup were super efficient. They estimated the amount of food very accurately based on the numbers we gave them, and boxed up the leftovers for us to put in the fridge. Highly recommend them for any party!

The front picture pays homage to our home country of Laos and everything was packaged well and neatly. The back had a QR code for people to find the reheating instructions of each meal you received. Food: Laap Gai (Lao Chicken Salad with Herbs)- 5/5 Flavorful and delicious. Had the aroma and fragrance of all of the correct herbs in this dish. Tasted like my family's cooking. Mok Gai (Steamed Chicken and Herbs in Banana Leaves) with Cabbage- 5/5 All of the flavors worked perfectly with each other and I paired it with homemade sticky rice to make it an even more authentic meal. Meat Sampler (Beef Jerky and Lao Sausage) with Jasmine Rice- 5/5 The flavors were so yummy! They each had their own personal flavor profile and each one was amazing on its own. Jeow Bong (Lao Dipping Sauce)- 10/5 Yes, a 10/5! Loved every bit of this sauce and dipped the meats and sticky rice in it, put it on my Jasmine rice, and ate it with my cabbage. It was just the perfect accompaniment to everything I ordered! This is a definite must-have!! All in all, they have found a lifetime customer in me. For someone who is missing homemade Lao foods but can't get to it where you are or just need a break in cooking, give them a try! It's cheaper and tastier than DoorDash!!

The food is delivered via FedEx. (It's even better if you also have the FedEx zoo for precise tracking and delivery)Frozen but still 5 stars. You order online and can select from delivery dates available in your area. (Also available for some local delivery or pickup but I live too far). The box arrived on time. It was well packaged with insulation and freezer pack. My food was still frozen. I also sent some to friends in the Boston area and their box arrived perfect to. It's really nice. All the entres are individually packed and LABELED in Laos and English. There is a QR code to link to the heating instructions. For the monthly special (Deep Fried Fish in a tomato sauce) they provide written instruction instructions. I signed up for the monthly subscription which include 3 meals which you can select yourself or let them choose. It's been a while so I picked my favorites- the sweet jerky meal, the pork noodles and the monthly special. As always it is fabulous. More to good news is that there are a number of lower carb options. You can get the jerky and spicy sausages without rice. Or the protein (chicken or fish ) steamed in banana leaves. Or the classic minced chicken salad. Or the spicy red curry. I was told that they specifically selected items that would travel and freeze well. They hit the mark. Over time I Have worked my way through almost the entire menu. I could personally vouch for other items that freeze and reheat well- sometimes better in the air fryer. So fingers crossed that we see the egg rolls and yellow potato curry on the menu soon. Would DEFINITELY RECOMMEND

I found Robin to be delightful, accommodating and easy to work with. She had a large list of hot and cold hor d'oeuvres from which to select. The size of the list was a bit overwhelming. She talked further with us to get a concept of what we were wanting to achieve. She then guided us through some of the appetizers she though we might find interesting, approximately 16. With Robin's help we narrowed it down further to eight items plus deserts. The trays of food were beautifully displayed. Everything was absolutely scrumptious! Many of our guests asked for her name and phone and said it was all so delicious. We received countless complements on the event. The biggest hits were rare beef tenderloin w/ horseradish sauce, shrimp and tortellini skewers w/ pesto dip, homemade potato chip topped w/ cocoa spice rubbed pork tenderloin, cabernet cupcakes and the biggest hit of all.... oreo truffles! OMG! They are to die for! In my opinion, she was quite reasonably priced. We would have paid far more to have this event at restaurant with the same amount of food she provided. I would not hesitate to use Robin again and again and again.
