From the owner: Hello and thank you for your interest in Chef It Up! My price is $100 per person plus the cost of…read morefood. The food cost will depend upon your menu choice. Your meal will consist of an appetizer, entree, and dessert. I try to make each meal tailored to you as much as possible. So, I will ask you what are some of your likes and dislikes when it comes to meat, seafood, and dessert. I will use this information to create your menu. I will go ahead and purchase the ingredients a couple of days before your dinner. That way, I am able to prep some of the things that will take longer. You can just reimburse me the food cost the night of your dinner. Cash is best! But I also accept Venmo, PayPal, and CashApp. I will use all of my own pots, pans, plates, and silverware so you will not have to worry about a thing. I will just need your kitchen and your appetite! Generally, it takes about three and a half hours from the time that I arrive, until the time that I am done cleaning up and out the door.

We got the combo with Chef Q's Madison Smashburger, & pretzel bites with beer cheese. Our thought was to just split it...we ended up getting another burger because it was SO GOOD! I struggle eating beef, but I'm pretty sure I could eat these several times a week! The sauce, the meat and even the bun, combined to make the best burger I think I have ever eaten. I don't leave reviews or give shout outs, but here I am, telling you to get this burger in your belly, now!

There was no one to restock multiple pans of food despite what was promised via email. Representative showed 15 min before party started so food was not hot in time for party. Representative said they would provide plates/platic ware but provided none. Appetizer bruschetta was stale bread with the equivalent of italian "salsa" to build your own...."stuffed mushrooms" were button mushrooms not cleaned with corn bread dressing on top served as a casserole dish. Green beans were obviously reheated out of a can. Food was not seasoned. Would not recommend. Will not use again.

They created a special, thoughtfully tailored menu that gave us a wonderful "taste" of Kentucky during our visit. They were so professional and discreet that we barely knew they were there, yet they created an unforgettable dining experience for our group. They set up the perfect presentation for the appetizers and used items from around the house to create a beautiful, thoughtful tablescape. Every detail was handled with care, and the cleanup was absolutely spotless. The food was delicious, and the homemade salad dressing was truly the best we've ever had! Communication was excellent throughout the entire process, and they were both incredibly kind, warm, and accommodating. Their service was worth every penny, and we would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a special meal or memorable experience. Such a sweet couple and truly talented chefs--we would love to have them back again!

For anyone in search of a catering company for any event please do NOT hire Comfort Eats & More…read morebased out of Louisville. They catered our wedding in October and it was AWFUL. The quality was atrocious, meat was overcooked and barely edible and they outright ignored food allergies they specifically agreed to take precautions for (and it was even in our contract). I have waited to share my experience because I was trying to find a resolution with the business but they have ignored all attempts to make this right and even ignored the Better Business Bureau's attempts to mediate. For anyone interested, I will post more details below: We hired Kendell Sheppard, chef and owner of Comfort Eats & More to cater our wedding on 10/16/2023. We paid for a serviced buffet for 75 people. We also had a clause added to our contract stating he would prepare a separate meal without garlic for my (the bride's) father with a garlic allergy and a separate meal for our groomsman who has several deadly allergies. For our groomsman we specifically added the allergens he was allergic to and asked that the meal be prepared in a separate space with separate utensils to ensure no cross-contamination. We not only spoke with Kendell about these concerns at our initial food tasting but also ensured it was added to the contract. Kendell assured us verbally, through the contact, and via email that he would take full precautions. However, on our wedding day, Kendell not only neglected to have a separate plate at all for our groomsman but actually served him food blatantly containing one of the specified allergens (a salad with a bourbon glaze- when we specified his wheat allergy) and he only realized his mistake when our groomsman pressed him for details on the contents of the salad before agreeing to eat it. Kendell, by his own admission, said it would be safer for our groomsman to not eat the food because he had not taken precautions and could not ensure it was safe for him to eat despite our contractual agreement. Additionally, he provided my father with only a partial meal prepared without garlic leaving out half of the options from the buffet. Lastly, the meat options that were served to the rest of the guests were horribly overcooked, tough, and dry. Which led most of our guest unable to eat the meal we paid for them to have. Kendell not only severely endangered the life of our groomsman by ignoring our contractual agreement but also underserved my father at his daughter's wedding and served poor quality food to the rest of the guests. We emailed Kendell following our wedding on 10/21/23 to express our concerns and the breach of contract and that we expected a refund. When we had not received a response we sent a follow up email on 10/27/23 stating that if we did not receive a reply by 11/01/23 that we would be submitting a formal complaint to the BBB. Kendell responded that day stating the maximum refund he could offer was a "15% managers compensation refund" and if this was not satisfactory that we could "explore mediation as an option" and to let him know our thoughts. We responded on 11/01/23 stating that we felt the disregard for safety in addition to the poor quality of the service delivered was worth more than the 15% he offered and would accept a minimum of a 50% refund. Kendell has not responded as of 11/15/23 and ignored all attempts by the Better Business Bureau to mediate this situation. DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY.

What a cool dinning experience as advertised. About 30 folks were seated around the cooking area…read moreor at hightop tables behind the cooking area. We were very pleased to have been seated at the bar, I do not think it would have been as an immersive an experience if we had we been at a table where you could not see the chef as he prepared our 4 course meal. Upon arrival you are seated and given a cocktail menu (not included in the cost of the meal). My hubby had a very strong bourbon and water and I had a cream, liquor, vodka drink that was very tasty, similar to a White Russian. At around 6 pm chef Todd began by telling us his history and passion for cooking inspired by his grandmothers as he prepared our appetizers. I am a bit fuzzy on the details of the ingredients of all the dishes since I fell later that evening, broke my hip and shoulder and spent the next 6 days in the hospital but I'll do my best, keeping in mind all 4 courses were expectional. Appetizer was a baked pear with goat cheese and a crostini with cranberry goat cheese, walnuts and honey drizzle. Second course was a bean soup and corn bread. Main course was pot roast, carrots, potatoes and mushrooms. Mine was super tender and very flavorful. Mu husbands portion had a lot of fat but what he could eat was tasty. And for dessert he served bananas foster bread pudding. We were given a sample of the bread pudding upon arrival to whet our appetites and it sure did. The whole experience was first class; food, service, cocktails, interaction with the chef, owner and wait staff, atmosphere was just plain fun, entertaining and satisfying. We were there about 2 hours. Street parking, comfortable setting and a unique dinning experience. I highly recommend for a special occasion. They offer different menus, prepared by different chefs and other special events. Check the webpage for availability as they sell out and reservations are required, paid in advance.
