Unfortunately, Ana is one of the worst people I've ever worked with professionally. She has a…read moreterrible attitude and will lash out at you whenever things don't go perfectly her way. Working with Ana is like walking on egg shells. You never know what's going to set her off. If you send her a text and she interprets it the wrong way, she likely to immediately quit on you. This is what happened to me. Ana is a very selfish person that expects everything to go her way and on her terms. If she even perceives that things aren't going her way, she can't handle it and will overreact and make irrational decisions. The main reason Ana quit without any notice for me after using her for over two years is because I paid her $275 for not working one week for me and she didn't like me doing that. It is the craziest reason I've ever heard for quitting. I was always very nice to hear, but it is never enough with Ana. You can compliment her every week for her services, and she still isn't happy. This is because she never feels adequate enough inside. Ana has personal and mental health issues that also affect her work and get in the way of her communication and how she handles situations. It's pretty much impossible to please Ana, as she always finds a way to turn things against you, including good deeds. I wish I would have stopped using Ana sooner so I didn't have to deal with all her drama and have her quit on me without any warning. She has tried doing this to me before, but I tried appeasing her against my better judgment. In hindsight, I should have stopped working with her when she blew up on me over how she interpreted a text message in the past and threatened to quit on me. Ana is a good cook, but her personal and mental health issues, as well as her short-temper and selfish tendencies are not worth the hassle. I highly recommend never taking a chance with Ana. There are much better cooks and people to deal with than Ana.

I am from Denver but live in CA currently and am planning from afar. Sent an incredibly detailed inquiry with day-of event timeline by hour, menu ideas, location (just a few blocks from their prep kitchen) and a bit about the event. Received two separate responses from he and his wife, Holly, seeking details already provided in my initial inquiry like guest count, location, time. Sent several emails back and forth clarifying capabilities, menu ideas, rentals etc. and finally had to set up a call in October (initiated by me after many proposal mistakes) to align. There was constant confusion regarding the style of the event and rentals - TBH, the many proposal revisions due to their mistakes maybe should have been the hint this might not be the best fit. But we went ahead! Terrence was late to the call on October 15 but let me know ahead of time and I genuinely didn't have an issue with it. After aligning, I paid $100 to have a menu tasting on Monday, December 22 when my husband and I would be visiting Denver from CA. So, this is a tasting that has been on the calendar for at least a month. When we arrived at our tasting (after confirming via email the week before and day of) 15 minutes before (6:45p) the scheduled time of 7pm, Terence is irate. Mistakenly, the event in my calendar was in PT (since we live in CA) instead of MT. He says that he refuses to serve us because we have "disrespected him and wasted his time and he has a 4-month-old at home." He continues to say that we are disorganized and lack care and that in addition to not offering a tasting, he will not put in the effort to cook for our wedding after how we've treated him. We are SUPER apologetic - this is something we've spent money on, confirmed via email and have been looking forward to. When asked why he didn't call to check on our arrival time, he said he "doesn't have my phone number. And you confirmed with Holly so that should have been enough." Because I filled out an entire inquiry on their website and spoke with him personally to schedule this tasting, it's BUCK WILD to say that you don't have my number and think sending an email is problem solving enough. We would have literally hopped in the car and been there in 15 minutes had we been given the courtesy of a phone call. All of this to say, we made a mistake, were very apologetic and were treated super rudely and given no tasting despite paying. 0/10 for TBD Foods.

She helped us create the perfect menu, was super flexible and responsive, and most importantly, the food was to-die-for. We finished the night by planning out when the next event we could have Shelby/Eat Dank Foods host (which can't come soon enough!).

The whole team was…read morecompletely blown away by the quality of the food, the experience, and how great everything turned out. Everything was so delicious and the process of working with Shelby was completely painless and could not have been easier. She sent over a list of menu options with so many great choices that it was difficult to narrow it down. In the end we settled on crispy pork belly and eggs for breakfast, beef and lamb birria tacos for lunch, and a three course dinner including elk empanadas, oxtail osso buco, and pistachio tiramisu. We could not have been more happy with the experience. The food was spectacular, Shelby was a joy to work with, and it's clear she really loves cooking for people and takes great pride in what she does. It was fun to watch someone who is so good at what she does execute on some of the best meals we could have asked for. Highly recommend Eat Dank Food and will definitely work with Chef Shelby again without hesitation.

I had the pleasure of having chef Paige Kraft cook a meal for me and my family thanks to a raffle I…read morehad one and the experience was fantastic. Firstly I spoke with Chris at the concierge desk via email and let him know the number of guests, date and type of food I wanted and he connected me with chef Paige who then provided a list of menu options to choose from (which was hard because they were all fantastic!) Chef Paige came about an hour prior to us wanting to eat and did everything from laying out the cutlery with a copy of the menu to cleaning up every last dish and even offering to take out the garbage. It's pretty rare to be able to talk directly to the chef about what's in every dish and how they made it. Besides being beautifully plated, every dish was delicious and fruits/veggies were picked out that day from a local farmers market. I don't know how she managed it but every dish was served right after the last was completed without delay. Our favorites were the stone fruit gazpacho and harissa halibut. I cannot recommend chef Paige and intueat in general enough for a special occasion or a time you want to host and actually be able to sit down throughout.

The food was absolutely incredible--our guests are still talking about it! Every dish was beautifully prepared, full of flavor, and felt so thoughtful and elevated. You could really tell how much care and talent went into every detail. Beyond the food, Chef Pukar and his team brought such a calm, professional presence to the day. Hosting a wedding at home can be stressful, but they made everything feel easy and taken care of so we could actually enjoy the moment. We would 100% recommend Chef Pukar for any type of event and are already looking forward to having him cook for us again in the future!

He did a special kids menu as well for our little ones of chicken tender and fries to accommodate them as well. He was such a pleasure to work with and a great communicator from start to finish. The steak tasted amazing and the sweet potato dish he served was the best sweet potato dish I've tasted in my entire life. He and his sister did an amazing job cleaning up afterwards as well, even packed our leftovers and put them in the fridge and our kitchen was cleaner than before he got here. I would definitely use him again for a special occasion. He is based in the Denver area, but it sounds like he frequently also travels to mountain resort communities as well.
