I had Sara's Cooking and Catering do appetizer platters for an event for my company. They were so…read moredelicious. One was Mediterranean and other fruit, cheeses and crackers. Somehow they make things that stand out and "wow" people. Several attendees mentioned that they enjoyed the food, and that the food disappeared quickly, let's me know that is true. They delivered it and were so gracious. As I plan more events, I look forward to other opportunities to work with them.

Now this company has gotten to the point where they are making knowingly false comments to…read morethird-parties in an attempt to blackmail me into taking my reviews down. This behavior is beyond unprofessional, which was my grievance in the first review to begin with -- not that they made a mistake with my order, but that their response to their mistake was rude and unprofessional. There were several points since MAY this situation could have come to a peaceful end, or at least an end, period. They could have refunded me and the issue would have been resolved and I would have updated my review to reflect that. They could have done nothing, or they could have responded to the reviews myself and my family left, and then we all move on with our lives. Instead, she decided to make up factious stories for no other reason then to defame and harass me. I once again question how many people were bullied into taking down honest reviews because this company is willing to resort to unethical tactics to try and suppress bad reviews. I stand behind my original review and every time this business decides to take irrational and spiteful actions against me, whether it be through her lawyers or members of her family stalking my Linkedin profile, I am more convinced in my assessment that this business is unprofessional. Since Sara has already responded to my review and I've written my rebuttal, I personally see no reason to update my review or to write new ones. However, if she continues to slander me, then I will continue to update my reviews to reflect the chaos that she is deciding to perpetuate. I will, however, under no circumstances, take down my reviews. The facts stated are truthful and the conclusions I've come to are my opinion.

Stephanie has been cooking for our family for about 1.5 years on a monthly basis, and we are so…read morehappy with her cooking! Some time ago I made a resolution to eat more home-cooked meals, and less take-out, but that didn't magically add time to my life to actually cook (go figure). Stephanie expertly fills in that need - home-cooked meals, without us doing the cooking! We have several dietary restrictions in our family, as well as some picky eaters, and Stephanie is able to modify recipes and substitute ingredients in a way that keeps food delicious. The amount of time I save by not aimlessly surfing the web, trying to figure out substitutions, is 100% worth the cost of her service. Stephanie is very easy to work with, always responds to emails/texts, and leaves the kitchen spotless. I can never tell what she's actually used. If I don't have some piece of equipment that she needs, she brings her own. The food that Stephanie cooks is amazing, and we have several dishes that we frequently request because they are so good, and there's no way we can replicate them at home: chicken paprikash, ají de gallina (shredded chicken in a creamy garlic sauce), Brazilian fish stew. We wholeheartedly recommend Stephanie! The food is delicious, and you'll love having a fridge full of delicious goodies without doing any of the work!

Best decision I've made!...Hiring Stephanie. She has cooked for us a few weeks now and everything…read moreis wonderful. Somehow she outdoes herself each week. My husband and I really enjoy her cooking and professional work in cleaning after she is done. The meals are fresh and easy to reheat for dinner to give us a couple days off from cooking. I can't believe I didn't do this sooner when my children were younger. Would highly recommend! I tell all my friends about her.

I was referred to Natasha Wellness by my Chiropractor after years of dealing with lingering upper…read moreand lower back pain. I was wasting away; gaunt and underweight, losing my mind, numb, anxious, and depressed. From healthy eating to healthy living habits, emotional intelligence and physical perseverance were some of the stepping stones in Natasha's wellness plan for me. I learned a lot from her mentorship and counseling. She caters to all walks of life and is able to adapt, pivot and provide accountability for anyone that wants to take control of their life. Natasha is extremely knowledgeable, well spoken, and empathetic to her clients. I made a financial investment in her services and my life, and it paid out in spades. A few of the things I learned in her program include: Emotional and physical health is one interwoven infinity string. A proper nutritional plan is critical to maintaining the dexterity and durability for your life's path. Gaining or losing weight is an attainable goal if you make the time, create the healthy habits, and maintain your discipline. Life can be hard, just find your middle way. A pessimist can transmute to an optimist. The glass is half full or half empty based on your current state of mind. Stay present and the rewards in not giving up are SO WORTH IT!

She's been really thoughtful about getting to know me, my story, my needs, and the foods I like and dislike, so I feel super taken-care-of. She's kind, easy to communicate with, and delivers the meals to me by hand. And, yes -- the food is incredibly delicious! I am in great hands and really couldn't ask for more. Thank you, Natasha!

JJ and her whole team were incredible to work with for our unconventional wedding party. From the…read moreoutset it was clear how important it was to her to understand what we wanted and the vibe we were going for, and she drew on her expertise in food and entertainment to help us bring it to the next level! So many helpful ideas and options without ever being pushy in the slightest. Every part of the process was met with great care and flexibility. From early planning to coordination day-of, it felt like we completely avoided the stress typically associated with a several-hour, eighty person event like this. That genuine spirit and passion for food really extended to her entire team, who were uniformly wonderful to work with during all portions of the event. If you're looking for delicious food and a nimble team with a solid ethos, look no further

We have only the most positive things to say about JJ and her team! They were extremely…read moreprofessional throughout the planning phase and the day-of, while also being so calm, warm, and friendly to communicate with. JJ is clearly extremely passionate about her craft and proposed a creative menu that featured local ingredients and had plenty of options for our guests with dietary restrictions. Each dish that JJ came up with was deliciously prepared, perfectly fresh, and arrived piping hot. The food was also very generously portioned for our buffet style wedding meal. Over the course of the evening our guests raved about each of the dishes that JJ and her team put together. In the days that followed, we continued to hear from friends about how much they loved the lamb, lasagna, etc., even while we were still enjoying the leftovers! JJ and her team went above and beyond in preparing food for our special day and for this we are extremely grateful. We would recommend JJ and her team to anyone without hesitation.

Great entrees. Their pastries are beautiful ! Sandwiches come in a box and are labeled , so there is no confusion. They have always been reliable. Fiona and her team are lovely to work with. The deliveries have always been a great experience. Only thing I will note is they often come EARLY so maybe be prepared for that ? I don't use that against them since they come to Boston from Everette. They have lots of deliveries so they have to be precise when it comes to timing and I know that can be difficult. Better early than late :) Their food is worth the price. Happy to work with Rita's and will continue to feed my hungry department with their yummy food.

Topped with fresh Parmesan cheese Dessert: None I ate here Tuesday night 12/30/08. It's a nice small little place with plenty of street parking. There was a group of us so we went family style on the appetizers. The mussels were delicious. The calamari was also very good, it was great to eat some calamari that wasn't fried for once. But call me biased, because I love crab cakes, but these ones were absolutely delicious! I ordered the Fettuccine with Pan Seared Shrimp. This was more so because my brother ordered the Shrimp and Scallop Brochettes, and I wanted to see as many entrees. But I definitely see myself going back to try so many entrees that look absolutely divine. My entree was good. I don't know much about Caribbean food, but didn't really picture it with the paremsan cheese and some melted cheese, but then again I did order fettuccine. I have to say that the mixture of the vegetables and sauce made it absolutely delicious! Unfortunately I couldn't finish it because I dabbled in so many of the appetizers.

And my salmon was delicious - the sauce was perfect. I equally loved the rice and veggies, although they were far from healthy! Clearly cooked in butter or oil. Our only disappointment were the plantains -- maybe it was us, but they just didn't hit the spot. I'd love to come back for lunch sometime as their salad and sandwiches sound fantastic! Be prepared though, I saved half my entree for lunch the next day and still walked out over stuffed!
