So I decided to try something new. I enjoy going out to great restaurants, but how about having a…read moregreat chef come to your house? It was a surprise for my spouse who is an awesome chef. She had someone come to her to make her a great dinner. Chef Deanna makes it easy and will make pretty much make whatever you'd like. She gives you some suggestions of things that have been popular in the past. She is so unobtrusive that once she gets started, you hardly realize she is there. Everything she made was delicious and our favorite was the creme brûlée. It was very quick, she was done in an hour and all the dishes were done and put away. She also does meal delivery (like a yummy take-out). I am going to explore that service further in the future.

We recently used Chef4rent for our son's wedding reception at Fair Haven State Park in NY. The…read moreowner, DeAnna Germano, was excellent to work with! She was professional, knowledgeable and friendly in all our interactions often making great suggestions to make the whole affair just what we wanted. At the event DeAnna was very organized and prepared incredibly good food.....we got nothing but compliments from all our guests! The staff that assisted her were so friendly, helpful and very focused. We were especially appreciative of the attention she gave to special diets (i.e.: gluten free, vegetarian, etc). I highly recommend this company for your catering needs!

Redstart Foods was one of my favorite food finds of the summer. If I lived in the area I could see…read moremyself being a regular here, and I'm jealous of those who are regulars. I tried both dinner and brunch over a short weekend stay in the area and both were 10/10. Everything here is homemade and beyond fresh. I had a grits special and it was the best I've ever had. The chicken dinner seems to be the most popular dinner item here, but I broke the mold and went with the pork and it was fantastic. I am not a potato person, but the side potatoes were phenomenal. The back patio makes for a great place to enjoy a meal and linger over a beer or tap natural wine. The inside is a little more hectic and not somewhere I would linger. There is also a little market with some grab and go items and beer/wine. A true neighborhood gem!

We've also had kale with a sesame dressing and the sausage by itself ... this is really delicious. Bonus points to them for taking back the box, the insulation, and the cold packs so they don't all end up in the trash.

My wife and parents-in-law chose to use the Food Fairy to cater our wedding in Pittsboro, NC (June…read more2016). I had gone on a spearfishing trip to Baja and caught a bunch of yellowtail to serve at the wedding. She served it seared, on a stick, with watermelon and basil. It was incredibly creative, made an amazing presentation and was mouth-watering good. I have high standards and especially with fish. The other dishes were all amazing and we still talk about them today. Aside from the top-notch quality, Terri was very responsive in communications and her whole staff is a pleasure to be with. I'd highly recommend her and look forward to having an opportunity to work with her again in future. Terri, thank you so much for our Food Fairy wand/stirring spoon. To this day it's one of our favorite kitchen utensils.

We placed a large Thanksgiving order with Chef Mario, Inc. in Raleigh, and they never delivered it…read more Not late -- never. We tried calling multiple times and only reached an answering service that couldn't provide any real help. No one from the actual business ever called us back. No updates. No explanation. No apology. Nothing. For a holiday order that families rely on, this level of disregard is unacceptable. We were left scrambling at the last minute because this company simply did not show up or communicate. Based on our experience, Chef Mario, Inc. feels completely unreliable, and we strongly urge others to think twice before placing an order. A business that takes holiday payments and then disappears is not one you should trust with something this important. Avoid the headache -- look elsewhere.
