We called Olivia after speaking with many caterers about about approach, cuisine and budget, and we were honestly getting a bit defeated. My first conversation with Olivia was so incredibly refreshing in that I told her we are trying to decide between tacos or barbeque and she responded with a very effortless, "why choose?". This immediately put me at ease as we started to brainstorm together. All other caterers were now subpar. She crafted a beautiful menu for us that included mini (single-bite) sized tacos as part of the hors d'oeuvres and an upscale barbeque with hometown roots for the entree. Our guests have not stopped RAVING about our food (strong accolades for the BBQ still rolling in from our Texas and Tennessee-native guests, so you know it was great!). We received a truly personalized experience with Olivia. She even stepped in to work with us directly when we had questions and get saleswoman was unavailable! From the first conversation through the tasting and our wedding, Olivia was one of our top vendors. Her saleswoman, Christina, was excellent at offering advice and ideas as well as suggestions from other events they'd catered (either at 501 or otherwise). On staff, Olivia also has a food design team member who created the most instagram-worthy displays! Definitely an added bonus. Would 10/10 use and recommend Olivia!

One of my favorite meals from Chef VanKline was her culinary presentation for my 50th birthday celebration with my entire family in New York City. The magic she created for the entire weekend was unmatched. My family was so impressed that many of them have hired her themselves. Since then. Her food is equally as beautiful as it is tasty. There's such a wide variety of flavors in each dish. She prepares. To have the gift of watching her cook in front of us was a big treat. Her customized menus always hit the mark. She's great at taking your desires, your culinary preferences, and the mood and theme of your event to create an out-of-this-world experience for your five senses! I can't wait to have another event for her to wow us again.

I'll be dreaming of this meal for a long long time!!

This review has been long over due…read more Intro My husband and I are big fans of Chef Kelvin, so much that when he has a private pop up event we are there. He's cooking at a restaurant we show up, he's selling coquito and his famous arepas, we are buying. He cooks for you at home for a private event we hire him. We even followed his recipes when he posted them on social media and his YouTube channel. As you can see we are big fan of his work. Private Event In June 2022, we hired him to cook for my 40th birthday. Everything we expected out of his work that night, he delivered plus more. I was 36 weeks pregnant at that time as well and everything he made was to die for. The great thing about him cooking for you for a private event is that you pick out what you want from his menu and he has various options to select from. Him and his team cleanup afterwards and you wouldn't even know they were there. Our choices from his Spring/Summer menu was the following: Peach salad, his award winning arepas, lobster rolls, chicken cordon bleu, salmon, filet mignon, with 3 sides: potatoes, squash & zucchini's and coconut rice. oh and croissant & maple glazed doughnut pudding. Nine months later my family and friends can't stop talking about that night. 2022 Valentine's Day Pop-Up This was our second Valentine's Day pop-up we attended from the Chef, this time he incorporated his Italian dining experience from his European trip last year and combined it with his traditional dishes and made it his own. Each dish had a touch of Italy and I loved every bite. from the red wine beurre blanc sauce on the filet mignon, pesto rigatoni and the vanilla panna cotta dessert. Our first Valentine's Day Pop-up was right before the world shut down in February 2019. We met a lovely couple at our table and we are friends with them ever since. Both pop ups included cocktails perfectly paired with all individual dishes and what a way to celebrate love with his beautiful wife Chachi singing in the background. Just like his food and drinks that night Chef Kelvin and Chachi were the perfect pair.

So this brings me to this...how did I not discover Jason's Kitchen until recently? Where has this Chef been and why has he not blown up bigger than he has?!?! Jason is actually a classmate of mine from my hometown in New Jersey. I've followed him lightly on social media platforms through his culinary journey from birth of his unfathomable determination and skill to break out on his own - a self taught Chef running a full service catering company. Encompassing Private and Personal dining experiences in the luxury of your private home or event space, Chef Jason brings not only his complete professionalism, but also a mind blowing culinary exploration of perfectly balanced ingredients that not only touch each of your five senses, but envokes a feeling of complete bliss. Each dish is thought out with culinary precision and executed beautifully. You can taste each ingredient as it rolls around your mouth and tongue. Balanced with the simplicity of what brought this dish to concept. This culinary journey his menu takes you on is unreal. I have never worked for or with a more talented Chef, who's personal energy is calm and humble, and confident not cocky. We had a dinner party to celebrate a birthday and a divorce with 9 close friends. Chef Jason, his Sous Chef June, and our lovely servers Karl and Cara really made this evening special. Everything flowed seamlessly. Any anxiety I had walked out the door as soon as this team went to work. It was a quiet calm and focused energy. They also didn't mind me being in the kitchen watching and tasting and asking a million questions. I can not recommend enough Jason's Kitchen for your next event. Exceptional! Thank you Chef Jason and Sous June. You blew our minds away!

Never have I ever been more disappointed... that Yelp doesn't let users give more than 5 stars…read more Because Jason's Kitchen deserves at least 100. My now-husband and I were searching for chefs to cater our small, intimate wedding of 13 people in our home. We found Jason on Yelp and from his first friendly email and sample menu, we knew it was a perfect fit. Thank you, Yelp! It is not hyperbole when I tell you that Jason's Kitchen is some of the best food you will ever eat. Jason and June are phenomenal chefs; to eat their Michelin Star-worthy food in your own home feels like a decadent privilege reserved for royalty. A few of our favorite dishes were the yellowtail crudo (to die for), tuna tartare (floated up to heaven), mini french onion soup bites (became reincarnated), burrata salad (was reborn), paella (lived a full other life), and rack of lamb with pesto sauce (found enlightenment). They worked with attentiveness, diligence, and grace, but what was most impressive was the down-to-earth, calm, and good-natured attitude throughout the night. The spectacular food AND their presence was truly an amazing addition to our day. Special shout-out to Jason for being a fellow Petty fan. The server, Marybeth, and the bartender, Anthony, carried the same good-natured, relaxed, and kind presence. Marybeth was gracious and friendly, and I swear my kitchen was cleaner at the end of the night than before. I only had a vacuum and small dustpan and brush on-hand and Marybeth used that little brush to clean everything because she didn't want to disturb us with too much noise with the vacuum. The small things! Anthony prepared copious amounts of cocktails with a smile and a good laugh throughout the day and evening. The drinks were as smooth as his pours and I am fairly certain every family member personally bonded with him in a way that I wouldn't be surprised if he is invited to another family wedding. Or a golf match. Overall, my husband and I agree that Jason's Kitchen was the best decision we made on that day, as well as deciding to spend our lives together. I'm now scheming other events we can have just to work with Jason's Kitchen again. 1 month wedding anniversary? And then again for our 2 months? Jason, we'll be in touch. In all seriousness, I would like to extend the most heartfelt thank you to this team. We are beyond grateful for your help to make our day the most special. For everyone else, why are you still reading this? BOOK NOW! You won't regret it!

I had told everyone at home about what I was doing, and how much I was looking forward to it, and how cool it was. And then Chef Denis canceled the day before our reservation. I know things can happen but he did not use the word "emergency" when leaving his message that he was canceling. Fortunately I have world's greatest nephew so he took me to an amazing Italian restaurant, instead, for my birthday, after we spent a glorious day at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. And he bought me beautiful earrings. He really is the greatest nephew. I had a wonderful birthday. When considering this business, I think it's important to know that canceling can, and does, happen, and apparently in the absence of an emergency.
