My friend from Highland Park said their potatoe salad was the best she had. My Vegan friend said there pasta veggie salad was a meal in itself. They served chicken, burgers and Italian sausage. And although they packed up in the dark, the next morning there was not a scrap of evidence that anyone had been there. And there where 121 guests for dinner. I used them in the past for a celebration of life at the Knights of Columbus in Arlington Heights as they were one of their vendors. Veggie Trays, mini sandwiches, etc. The feedback from that was why I hired them again for something completely different. Both occasions have made them my vendor of choice. Thank you Tom and Gina along with your crew for making me look so good!

Ivan, Cathie, and the entire Gourmet Food Works team knocked it out of the park at our 9/5/15…read morewedding! We've been regular customers of the Picnic Basket (restaurant side of this business) for years and Gourmet Food Works actually catered my husband's christening years ago, so there was little doubt they'd be the best choice for our big day. That said, we were very budget conscious, so we definitely did our homework (checked with other caterers, etc.), but in the end no one compared from a price, quality, or service standpoint, and I know we made the right choice going with Gourmet Food Works! From our initial meeting with Ivan, where he answered our million questions and clearly laid out our options.. to the food tasting where he provided us with so many delicious options to choose from.. to the morning of the big day where he and his team showed up early to ensure everything was ready to go.. and finally to the day-of coordination and food service, everything was excellent and far exceeded our expectations. We had our wedding at an amazing but non-traditional location (see: Cypress Resort & Marine in Antioch) which required a bit more logistical consideration than some of the other more traditional venues out there. Ivan and his team actually went out to the site to scope things out ahead of time (on more than one occasion, I believe) to ensure what we were envisioning was feasible. There were also a number of changes and several 'special requests' we made during the process (which I know caused a lot of extra work for Ivan), and throughout everything, he was patient, responsive, and extremely helpful. Arguably most importantly, the food at our wedding was fantastic! We received a number of compliments from our guests, which of course was great to hear. It was also very nice knowing that the day was fully taken care of, as Ivan & Cathie & crew did a great job working with us and our other vendors to ensure everything went off without a hitch. We'd HIGHLY recommend having Gourmet Food Works cater your wedding or party!

He was very familiar with our venue and helped with alot of the planning for the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. He really made the whole process a breeze! We had some menu ideas when we arrived for the tasting, months before our wedding, but Ivan brought out samples of SO much food and we ended up picking something completely different. As the bride, I have food allergies (allergic to gluten and dairy) and Ivan was SO accommodating with all the menu choices. Alot of our guests were also GF and he made sure our buffet was all clearly marked with tons of options for everyone. We also had two vegan guests, which had their meals prepared on the side, and they raved about their dish! The day of the wedding, Ivan and his staff were very prompt, professional and smiling all night! At the end of the dinner, the food was packed up for us to take home! They also handled our cake perfectly. I would HIGHLY recommend using Gourmet Food Works for their wedding or special event!

Their recommendations of passes appetizers and food for the buffet were fabulous and the quantities were spot on for this modest sized, 18 person fete.

Recommend them highly.

We did have a nice table for 6 close to the back so it was quiet and we had privacy.

I personally cannot recommend True Cuisine enough. I was an out of state bride (I live in Michigan…read morebut the wedding was in Chicago). Overall, communication, pricing transparency, and customization to my event were 100/10. The person I worked with Sara R was so sweet and was able to quickly provide recommendations and suggestions for whatever questions I had. Since I could not do a tasting immediately after making contact with them, they were able to not only notify of their capacity (like if they were becoming booked out for the day) but were also able to reserve some offers for me. During the event, everyone worked like a well oiled machine. Everyone was fed on time and the team adapted to the event as needed. From my guests, I got several compliments on how wonderful the food was. They were even able to offer an event decorator last minute. If I had to do it again, I would book True Cuisine again.

The food was incredible--our guests are still raving about it weeks later! Every dish was beautifully presented, full of flavor, and perfectly timed. Their service was impeccable, and their attention to detail was unmatched. We felt so taken care of throughout the entire evening. The staff went above and beyond in every way--even taking it upon themselves to carefully take down and pack up our decorations at the end of the night so we didn't have to worry about a thing. True Cuisine not only delivered an unforgettable dining experience, they made our entire day smoother, easier, and more special than we could have imagined. If you want a team that truly cares and delivers excellence in every bite and every detail, look no further than True Cuisine!
