Quick responses and seamless customer service. Ordered for 100 guests and we were impressed by the amount of food received; there was more than enough to feed our additional last-minute guests we hadn't included in the original headcount. Everything was so light & colorful and tasted just as delicious as it looked. Appreciated the beautiful floral touches to the platters. We got the seasonal fruit platter, assorted viennoiseries, chia pudding, yogurt parfaits and coffee/tea. Per Katie's recommendation we added cookies--which were a huge hit with guests (and staff)! The menu was curated for dairy free/GF/vegan options. The delivery with Ramon went smoothly: right on time, clear communication via text and help with the set up. The whole Bites & Bashes team did such a professional job. You won't regret working with this family-owned business!

From the menu options to working directly with Mariah, who patiently answered my hundred questions and was so accommodating with all the little tweaks I made to our order, to the delivery and presentation, everything turned out so wonderfully. And, most importantly, our guests LOVED the food! We went with the Mexican menu, along with some appetizers and the Gochujang tofu. My only regret is that I didn't order more of the tofu! We had a few vegetarians in attendance, but EVERYONE was eating it. My husband and I served ourselves last, so by the time we made it to the buffet, there was barely any left. Honestly, though, I think that says everything about how much our guests loved the food! It just gives us an excuse to host another big party so we can have Bites and Bashes cater again. I truly can't recommend them enough. Everyone we worked with was incredibly kind, helpful, and professional, and the entire experience was wonderful from beginning to end. JUST WOW! Thank you, Bites and Bashes, for helping make our wedding day so delicious and special! 5 stars isn't enough of a high rating.

Food was prepped and ready at the time requested, and was still warm and ready to eat. Packaged well and nothing missing. Usually I get Korean catering from k-town, but it was too inconvenient this time around. I was pleasantly surprised at how good everything was, and I was not disappointed by anything. The galbi was a bit pricey, but galbi costs now are ridiculous so not shocking. It was tender and the marinade was solid. The chicken wings though...wow. They really stood out and were some of the best Korean chicken wings I've had. Banchan all solid and good to go. If you need kfood catering, give them a try!

I was really looking forward to trying some authentic American Soul food after our office manager…read moreannounced that we were ordering catering from Grandmas House, and I researched the background behind this place. I wasn't expecting fried chicken, but I have to say this place offered way more healthy options and variety than I was expecting. The highlights of my experience were the fried chicken, corn bread, and the super cheesy mac n cheese. The herbs and the crispiness of the chicken was definitely a league above any thing I've had at fast food places that serve fried chicken. The seasoning was done just right without any of bit of saltiness. I am not sure what kind of cheese was used, but the mac n cheese had a firmness to the cheese that was refreshing (I don't like my mac n cheese too runny), and the flavor profile of the cheese tasted of a high end caliber. Corn bread was just the best darn corn bread I've had, with mild sweetness, strong corn flavor, and even good bits of corn mixed in. Very moist and tender, yet crumbles a bit when you handle it. Mixed greens were crisp and fresh and really balanced out the meal with much needed fiber for me. I felt the mushroom and string beans were pretty good, but nothing earth shattering. The shrimp on skewer sticks I felt were a little dry and plain so I don't recommend this as highly as the other items. Sheperd's pie was made from a ground beef layer along with a top layer of mashed sweet potato. The potato layer was very delicious, but the bottom meat layer could have used a little less salt IMO. Overall I had a very positive experience, and even my kids sampled a little of everything. They echoed my sentiments, except for the sheperd's pie, which my daughter was not a fan of.

Because of the number of good reviews for Made by Meg, I decided to try them for a Celebration of…read moreLife event I was hosting in honor of my mother who passed. After reaching out to them, was finally able to get a response concerning their interest. They referred me to their website to review food choices. Their offerings are really extensive, which made selection rather daunting. Brenda called me to help with putting something together. However, when I asked to meet with her, was told that their policy was not to meet in person until they had a signed contract. For me, that was like the chicken and the egg. How do I get to the point of signing a contract when I'm not sure what to request. She volunteered to put together a proposal for 20-25 people. Her initial proposal called for 5-7 catering staff since I wanted to have my guests served. After a conversation regarding the many staff for the size of my party seemed excessive, we agreed on a bartender and a server. That seemed more reasonable so a contract was issued which I signed and returned. Prepayment was made for the contract items. This was roughly two weeks before the event. When I didn't hear anything from Brenda about the details and logistics for about a week, I became concerned about knowing who was doing what. Her response came in a timely manner so we both knew who was doing what. There was no offer to meet to work out details. There was no offer to stop by my home to set what the situation called for. But again, because to the number of positive reviews, I wasn't overly concerned. On the day of the event, I went to the service for my mother and delivered her eulogy. Minutes before I was to speak, got a call from Brenda who wanted to know about getting in the house because no one seemed to be a home. The front door was left unlocked and my neighbor was supposed to be watching for the van to park in our driveway and apparently didn't see Sedrick arrive. When informed about the unlocked door, Brenda passed that info along to the bartender to begin setting up. Jane left the service early to come home and see if our bartender, Sedrick, needed anything. This is where things went off the rails. From the moment Jane arrived home, it was clear that there was way too much work to do before guests from the service began to arrive. She enlisted the help of my neighbor to help with the setup. Why? Because the server I paid for who was supposed to help with the setup was NOT going to be there to help with either setup or serving. The bartender was scheduled to arrive at 2pm, giving MBM about an hour and a half to get ready for my guests. Well, Jane and my neighbor were working diligently to help with setup, they are not professional caterers. While Sedrick was trying to get things set up, my guests started arriving a little before 4pm. Since Sedrick was busy with set up, I stepped in to begin serving drinks to my guests. That was NOT what I planned. Once setup was pretty much completed, I was relieved of my bartending duties and able to spend time with my guests, some of which had traveled thousands of miles to be here. Things finally began flowing and my guests enjoyed themselves. So why such a poor review? Well, you should be able to get my drift about what didn't go well. Let me expand on that. If l were just rating the performance of the staff, Sedrick was 5-star. He's personable, professional and has a "can do" attitude. As good as he is, he cannot do the work of two people and succeed. He was setup for failure by MBM, and darn near did. Also, I paid for a server, yet none was provided. I'm writing this review several days after the event because I wanted to give MBM an opportunity to follow up with me. They have NOT as of yet. That leaves me to believe that even though they knew my event was going to be a challenge with a lone bartender, they have little concern for me as a client. If you're looking for a caterer to just drop off food, MBM gets my recommendation. The food was excellent. But if you want to have a caterer who will handle everything for your event, like Chef Dora does, look for someone else.
