So, during this time of quarantining and stay at homing and not going crazy. . . ing, we have been…read moretrying to help support local businesses by ordering food from various restaurants on a regular basis. Not that my wife isn't a fantastic cook. Because she is. But these businesses are all working hard to try and stay afloat and I just hope and pray that they can manage to survive until people can start dining out again. So we are doing what we can and ordering from various types of restaurants. As we were researching places to try, a dear friend recommended that we check out Gregory Paul's. "Prepared meals? What is this strange beast?" I thought to myself when my wife first mentioned it. Oh, I forgot to tell you that when I think to myself I sound like I'm straight out of a Charles Dickens novel. Yeah, I'm a bit weird that way. "Methinks so as well dear friend." Shhhh. Anyway, we perused this week's menu and decided to give Gregory Paul's a try. And by try I mean that we placed an order for the hearts of palm salad, the eggplant parmesan and the pasta bolognese. We scheduled a convenient time for pick up and bam! it was done. Easy peasy. And I say that because the wife did both the ordering and the pick up. Thanks honey! Isn't she the best? You know it! Anyway, the food comes in great little containers that simply need to be heated up in the oven. As opposed to regular take out, it isn't a race home to see if it remains hot enough to eat. You do need to put these dishes in the oven. Which worked out just fine for us. It gave my wife time to do all of the other prep work before dinner. Kidding! I set the table. I'm awesome. The hearts of palm salad was delicious, filled with hearts of palm and other veggies. You know, the typical salad thing. We added some additional lettuce because there are 3 of us currently quarantining, but overall it was really good. The eggplant parm was just what you would expect from, you know, eggplant parm. Cheese, breaded eggplant and sauce. Also included? Basil. Which really added to the dish. The eggplant wasn't greasy and the breading was certainly not overpowering. The red sauce was very well done. And the amount was deceiving. Although the order states that it feeds 2, it was more than enough for 3 people. In addition we ordered the pasta bolognese. Which I loved. The meat sauce was tender and tasty. Be forewarned that it does have carrots in it. My wife would have preferred it without. I have no idea if that is how traditional Bolognese sauce is prepared (I'm lucky I even know how to type bolognese let alone know what's supposed to be in it) but overall I thought the dish was fantastic. The two dishes together (along with the salad) was way more food than 3 people should eat. I of course finished most of it. urp. At the end of the day, we really enjoyed our first experience with ordering from Gregory Paul's. And we certainly look forward to the different items that will be available on future menus. If you are looking to support local businesses then I would definitely recommend that you give this place a try! Now I'm off to read A Tale of Two Cities!

The waitress was friendly, and helpful with the menu with us as first timers. Chips, salsa and queso all came out super quick! Better than that, our food came out quick as well! And the food was amazing!!!! I had three tacos ( Blackened Mahi, Blackened Shrimp, & Filet Mignon) that blew my mind. I have been thinking about these tacos ever since I had them, trying to plan my next visit. The margaritas are great as well, not watered down like a lot of these other Mexican spots!

He made a HUGE paella which fed 60 very happy guests with a great portion. The week before, they called me to confirm and Juan, the owner, let me know that he would be the chef the day of our event. I warned him that my mother is a very picky woman that's from Spain and that he would have his work cut out for him to impress her. He said he would be up for that challenge as he's from Valencia and has been making paella all of his life. Fast forward to the wedding, when we arrive at the reception space and are greeted by the most amazing smell of paella being cooked. The guests were in awe as they watched the chef finish making his masterpiece before their eyes. I felt bad for the guy as the before mentioned picky Spanish woman had arrived and was standing over his shoulder waiting for her chance! Moment of truth comes and the matriarch of our family tries the paella. Never before have I seen this woman finish her entire meal!! She was so impressed! Phew!! The paella was amazing, and the owner is a delight. We will definitely use him again for future events. If you are looking for a great caterer that will wow your guests, this is it!

I don't care if it was grouper or not (it definitely tasted like the real thing), it hit the spot. The fries were yummy too. Our server was kind and attentive and made us feel welcome. Drinks were generous. Cheers to the bartender.

I don't even know where to begin. Olivia and her team absolutely knocked it out of the park. From…read morethe early beginnings when I first sent an inquiry in, Olivia has been in complete contact with me since. From my random phone calls, late text messages and emails, she was so prompt and wonderful to speak with throughout the entire process. She helped my husband and I build the absolute dream menu and helped us stay within budget at the same time. Olivia was able to make room and squeeze us into the last tasting before our wedding day, so we were able to experience what her catering team had to offer. We truly feel like Olivia puts her customers first no matter the cost and treats us more as friends which really makes the entire process a breeze. Vendors can be difficult to deal with during the high stress wedding planning, but I have nothing, absolutely nothing negative to say about Olivia and EFS Catering. We originally hired a wedding planner with a different company, and we were quick to change over to have Olivia and her husband William orchestrate our wedding. A decision we will never regret! Even before actually hiring them to coordinate, I was told to contact her with ANY questions or help for planning. She helped me do my entire floor plan and gave me input my other planner did not. Between her killer personality and her awesome organizational skills, we felt as though a boulder was taken off our shoulders. We trusted them 100% and our wedding was an absolute DREAM COME TRUE. EFS provided our passed appetizers, buffet station, bartending services, a carving station, and butler service for each table. Nobody went hungry, glasses were never half empty, and everyone had an awesome night! Kyle, was a server who stood out to my husband and I. He specifically catered to us and made sure we were greeted to our table with drinks, our plates fixed and checked on us multiple times throughout dinner. As for the rest of team, THANK YOU! The bartenders made drinks in a timely manner considering the enormous line of people after the ceremony. And the waitstaff was constantly checking on tables, filling glasses and removing dirty dishware. We were also packed multiple to-go boxes to take home and boy that was great to munch on! I truly have no complaints and my guests are still raving about the awesome food, and services EFS provided for us!! If it were an option I would rate 100000000x stars. Olivia - Your personality is one like no other! We are so grateful for you and what you have personally done for Tyler and I. We've maybe even gained a friend in the process Also, the relationship you have with William is GOALSSSS. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, and I don't doubt you will continue to make everyone you encounter as happy as we are now! William - My highlight moment for you would be when you came in to check on me in the bridal suite. Everyone had left to line up and I was alone, and the anxiety was really kicking in. All it took was a smile and you truly comforted me! Thank you for that. P.S. You and Olivia are a freaking dream team!! Our wedding wouldn't have been possible without all of you! THANK YOU!
