She spent time curating a meal that met our dietary restrictions (one family member is GF, dairy free, and sugar free), while maintaining delicious flavors and not making some feel left out of the experience. We enjoyed the evening she put together from the appetizers and themed cocktails (plus mocktails for the kids), to her photographer that captured special moments from the evening, to savoring the yummy food. She also had wines picked out to match our meal and preferences. Every bite was yummy and enjoyed by all! She even prepared a special kids meal and kept the younger family members entertained with kid friendly foods and activities (like helping roll out the dinner rolls), we loved this special event, and will remember it forever! We strongly recommend Chef Katherine and her team to anyone visiting the Bic Island.

From the signature cocktails to appetizers to the main course and dessert, every single bite was delicious. All of our courses were explained to us, too, which was really cool! Through Outrageous Gourmet, we were also able to coordinate floral centerpieces, beautiful table ware, tables and chairs to seat us all comfortably, and locally made leis for both of our parents on this special night. Chef Katherine and her team made this a night and our family will remember forever, and we're so grateful. Thank you!!

We've traveled to all the Hawaiian Islands and have sampled each island's best restaurants, but I can honestly say my entire group agreed that the meal Patrick created for our celebratory gathering was undoubtedly the absolute best. The sashimi dishes were the freshest and most flavorful I've had- on par with the best Japanese restaurants we've experienced (and we've been to Japan). His salads were fresh, light, and creative, as were his side dishes. And his desserts were top-notch. Each course flowed beautifully into another, and every bite was delicious. We truly appreciated how much care Patrick dedicates to his craft- the quality and thought Patrick puts into sourcing ingredients is evident in the taste, flavor, and depth of his dishes. The service was also impeccable. Our house was left spotless, and his wife was absolutely charming. I would not hesitate to recommend them again. Thank you, Patrick, for all of the hard work and love you put into your dishes! Outstanding job!

I booked Gabrielle to prepare two dinners for our group at our rental house and after the first, we…read morewere all incredibly excited for the second! Being a chef myself, I feel like I may have thrown down the gauntlet for her with asking her to create meals that were high end, telling a hawaiian story using local ingredients. Boy did she deliver! Everything she put out was visually and tastefully stunning and I feel like she really understood the assignment. Furthermore, the sense of ohana that she brought really was above and beyond and she really provided the luxury of feeling completely spoiled. You MUST try her Lillikoi Mouse!

Caution we paid for three meals and only got one. Communication was spotty. Here's the scoop:…read more I booked dinner for Monday 4/11, brunch Thursday 4/14 and dinner for the same day. I spoke with Gabrielle weeks before we arrived and we planned the meals. She emailed me a confirmation and I sent her 50% via Venmo. Big mistake! The day of the first meal I hadn't heard for from her so I text and called her and learned that she would be sending her sous chefs because she was overbooked. The meal was excellent, her sous chefs set the table beautifully, asked us details about about the meal such as food allergies and preferences. The food was delicious. It was great. The morning of the next two meals I couldn't reach her. No one showed up. I texted her and let her know that by my calculations she still owed me $600. She called and explained she had a personal emergency. I'm waiting for her to Venmo me. Update- After returning home we received a Venmo for the $600 so we are set.

He delivered more food than we had expected, and everybody was completely stuffed. Really enjoyed his rosemary roasted chicken, his version of Macaroni salad, our swimmers decimated the pesto penne... but the thing that personally made me the happiest was the purple sweet potatoes, done to perfection! Sweet potatoes are such an excellent food for athletes. And Anthony's potatoes were just right with a tiny hint of salt, perfectly cooked, not soggy, but also not dry. Can I just say this man delivers gorgeous sweet potatoes! He also arrived with extra tinfoil pans for us to keep everything double insulated and warm. Arrived 10 minutes early to deliver the food which put my mind at ease. He sent me pictures of his progress as he was cooking so I felt like I got to see things coming together. Best caterer I've ever worked with.

We had a larger sized group visiting the Big Island and we knew didn't want to cook every night or deal with the hassle of finding a reservation so we hired Angela for a couple meals on our visit. From start to finish she was so attentive to our dietary needs and likes and even came up with ideas that we wouldn't have thought of ourselves to help please our entire crowd. Angela and her crew and came and made us a couple of beautiful and delicious dinners-we were all wowed with how gorgeous her presentation was! She even made us a couple quiches for our mornings. She was such a delight to work with and made our trip so much more fun. My favs- ahi won ton nachos, her homemade sourdough bread, lilikoi cheesecake, Waimea filets with her purple potatoes- all were so yummy. We can't recommend her enough.
