From the very beginning, communication was prompt, professional, and easy. They arrived right on time, fully prepared with a clear plan and a fantastic team. The food was phenomenal--delicious, beautifully presented, and the portion sizes were perfect. Everyone left full and happy! Pricing was very fair for the quality and service we received. What really stood out was how well the team balanced professionalism with personality. They were fun, engaging, and added to the vibe of the evening. I would 100% work with them again and highly recommend them for any special occasion. They helped make our night unforgettable! Thank you Chef D and team.

They came and catered our bachelor party breakfast, and it was just what we needed to bring our crew back to life. Chef D took care of everything, all we had to do was approve his suggested menu.

Highly recommend Chef D for your breakfast, and based off my experience I'm sure he's great for lunches and dinners as well.

I have worked in hospitality and event planning industry in Austin for many years, and finding a good caterer has always proven extremely difficult. Leading up to the event, Brandi was extremely communicative and flexible with my needs. There was a long period of time where things kept getting delayed on my end due to my organization's policies, but Brandi remained so patient, kind, respectful and accommodating throughout the whole process. On the day of the event, her and her team arrived on time and set up a stunning buffet complete with layered linens and touches of greenery. For the price I paid I was expecting just a standard black tablecloth and chafers on a table, so I was very impressed with the presentation. It made it very clear to me that this is a business that takes pride in their work. On top of this already great experience, the food was fresh and delicious. I am not exaggerating when I say every single thing was seasoned to perfection! I went around to each table and asked everyone how they liked everything, and they all commented on how flavorful the food was. Even our staff with dietary restrictions that received alternative proteins were impressed. I had only paid for the basic-level buffet service, so I was't expecting them to do anything beyond serving the food- but I was yet again pleasantly surprised when I looked up and saw Brandi and her team walking around to each table bussing plates. This was not expected of them at all and I was so amazed with the level of service throughout the entire event. I will absolutely be hiring them for more events in the future, and I recommend you do too!

My husband and I initially wanted another well-known BBQ Asian fusion restaurant to cater our…read morewedding and were pretty set on it. But after our guest list grew, we had to move locations and our venue was no longer within their catering vicinity. I searched high and low for different vendors that fit the fusion that we wanted, but couldn't find anything that fit just right (or that didn't break the bank). Then I somehow stumbled across Rebel Catering on Google. They had a wide variety of packages for food varying from Asian, to bbq, to Mexican. They didn't have a ton of reviews, and it seemed like they mostly did corporate events, but I gave them a call. I'll be honest, I was a bit apprehensive of how incredibly chill Rahul is at first (because I was already stressed out), but when I told him about our vision, he immediately checked with his chefs and created an incredible menu for us. My mom and mother in law's primary request was copycats of the other restaurant's corn fritters, and he even delivered on that. I'll attach a picture of the menu, but our minds were blown at the quality and freshness of the food. Buffet style brisket is HARD and he and his team crushed it. I even had friends with allergies and he accommodated them without question. The most popular part of the night though was the shaved ice. Part of Rebel Catering is their shaved ice package with alcoholic shaved ice (TABC bartender included). They had custom flavors to match our Asian fusion theme, and even brought their truck in to serve our guests! They also created a custom flavor named after our cat and created a sign with a cute cartoon of him. They also had tons of other drinks including sodas, jelly drinks, boba drinks, and energy drinks. TLDR: HIRE REBEL CATERING. Your guests will love you forever.

I had to organize a corporate reception at a private home and I could not have chosen a better business to work with. I did diligent research and talked to multiple business owners about my event, received various quotes and I. The whole picking process Gourmet Gals were a front runner. I was very happy that they were able to offer catering services as well as bartending services. I did not have to deal with 2 different companies. I was impressed with their professionalism, quick response time, thorough follow up, and putting together a menu that was exactly what I asked for. Sherri was a pleasure to work with and she responded super quickly to all requests, including a slight budget change. The food was delicious. Exec. Chef Mark prepared food on site and it was the most fresh, tasty beautifully presented. Passed Hors d'oeuvre Chicken Diablos had a little kick to them, as the bacon wrapped chicken had some pickled jalapeños. Parmesan Stuffed Mushrooms were particularly tasty for me, with flavors singing and dancing together. Beef on sliders was very high grade, and had even two slices per each slider. Grilled veggies were a hit, and Feta and Garlic dip was very popular as well. Petite sweets and berries with fresh whipped cream topped the party. We had 4 people on site from Gourmet Gals: Mark the chef who did an amazing job, Rebecca the manager to make sure everything goes smoothly, Vivian who passed around food and made sure food was presented and replenished, and our bartender who made sure everybody had a drink in their hands. Thank you Gourmet Gals for your professionalism and for going extra mile to have a successful event!

Sherri worked with us for several months leading up to the event and did her best to tailor the dinner to our needs. Her team showed up early and then disappeared into the background.

I would highly recommend them. Thanks Sherri and team.

We had multiple meetings and interactions with Morgan and Ruby. We were impressed with their professionalism and attention to detail. We did a formal sit down dinner with cocktail hour prior. We also hired them to cook our late night food. Of all the vendors we hired we were not worried about Vestals delivering everything they promised. Sadly the night of the wedding was a completely different story. The service was extremely slow and chaotic. My guests were left wondering if they would ever get dinner and it made our wedding time line run way behind. The tables were not bused and the bartenders had to start grabbing glasses off tables since Vestals was not doing it. Waters were not refilled and it was an overall scene we never ever expected. Lastly they didn't cut the grooms cake and left it sitting on the cake table. I give them 2 stars because the food was good but honestly the service was less than 1 star. I warn other Austin brides that they will promise everything but deliver a different experience.

A delicious and creative menu was important to us and they went above and beyond in working with us to create a customized menu that fit our preferences and budget. Alicia and Jackson hosted a customized and intimate menu tasting for us at their beautiful home/farm which was such a memorable experience! Their amazing team created the most beautiful roasted vegetable display at our rehearsal dinner (along with a mouth-watering taco bar) and a stunning exotic fruit and cheese display at our wedding (plus grilled chicken and vegetables with chimichurri sauce and sweet potatoes with a blueberry bourbon glaze - YUM!) Alicia was incredible at communication and answering all of my questions throughout the planning process. Pearl Snap handled set-up and clean-up for our wedding at Canyonwood Ridge in Dripping Springs, along with fantastic service, passed hor d'oeuvres, cake cutting, and even entertainment with live cooking demos! (The Cafe Brulee is a must!) I can't say enough amazing things about Pearl Snap Cuisine - our food was fresh, memorable, incredibly delicious, and our guests cannot stop talking about it even a month after our wedding!

A few even said how they hated to eat from the displays because it was like disturbing a work of art! All of the dishes were crafted with hand, beautifully displayed, and prepared fresh on site.
