    Craig is a true professional that you can trust. He takes pride in his work and will go above and…read morebeyond to make sure your event exceeds your expectation and impresses your guests. I hired Craig and his team to cater my wedding, which took place at a remote venue about 2 hours outside of Tucson. The event was a challenge because not only was it remote, but I was also planning the event from the other side of the country. That meant I didn't have the benefit of meeting with caterers in person, trying food in advance, and undertaking all the traditional steps of finding vendors for a wedding. I knew I had found the right person to handle the event from the very first call. He was cordial, asked the right questions, clearly communicated his requirements, and was honest. He didn't disappear or go radio silent after I signed the contract and he was communicative all the way through the planning process and leading up to the event. About two months before the event, he graciously drove the two hours out to the venue to conduct a property walk-through with me when I was in town for the holidays. He refused additional reimbursement for his time or gas money to get out to the venue. In the last month leading up to the event, I communicated to Craig that a few of my guests had some allergies, and one was vegan. This was a quaint wedding of only about 20 people, so that meant coming up with some original alternatives for those few individuals. Furthermore, I hired him to prepare breakfast, lunch, and dinner the day of the wedding, which exasperated those challenges. On the day of the event, he had a custom vegan-friendly dish prepared for all three meals and took extraordinary precautions to prevent allergen cross-contamination. Every single meal was punctual, artfully presented, and delicious. This is not your standard wedding food or copy-and-paste banquet meal. Craig is extraordinarily talented and was continuously present throughout each meal to greet guests and present his dishes. Every guest was impressed and raving about the food. In addition to the tremendous food, Craig also helped to arrange servers for the event and even helped bring additional tables for the event. Craig is just a genuinely good person and you cannot do better than hiring him for your next event.

I was just thinking about the holidays the other day. Chef Craig will go to your home and teach "how to cook the best holiday dinner ever". It'd be a fun at-home class/pre-holiday party with friends who also want to learn how to wow their friends and families. Or, I could always get a private lesson and take the credit for myself ; ).

She…read morewas the chef for a recent retreat I attended, and not only was the food stellar, but Chef Karen is a total hoot. She is the exact personality you want for events, easygoing, funny, kind, and dedicated. (And she has great taste in music!) I also want to share that when some of our participants were stranded by a car they had booked that never showed, Chef Karen went way above and beyond the call of duty, and made sure that the attendees got to their plane on time. Obviously, this isn't a thing that should be expected, but it's important to name things out loud when folks are extra-awesome. And Chef Karen is 100% extra-awesome! My only complaint is that she lives on the other side of the country, so it will be awhile before I get to have her food again. But if you're near Tucson, get some Chef Karen in your life!

Karen took the time to work with us to make delicious food we could both fully enjoy. She was so patient with us and so willing to make everything right. The quantity was generous, the taste delicious, and the care she put into the meals was most evident. We've moved from Tucson but if we were to return we'd hire Karen again. I most highly recommend her.

    A masterpiece of culinary intention - my 70th birthday dinner!…read more When I decided to celebrate my 70th birthday with seven beloved guests, I knew I wanted something truly extraordinary. Chef Adrian Ortega of ADOR Cuisine delivered what I can only describe as the ultimate experience -- and that is exactly what he promises. Chef Adrian designed a stunning five-course dinner, each course paired with a cocktail or mocktail from his custom elixir menu. What made the elixirs truly remarkable is that they were crafted from all-natural ingredients -- including fresh vegetables -- and tasted absolutely wonderful. Who knew butternut squash could be the star of a cocktail? My personal favorite, the Butternut Fresca, was a vibrant, silky blend that was as surprising as it was delicious. The evening flowed beautifully from the opening Sonoran Beets appetizer through a vibrant Spiralized Roots salad, a soulful Smokey Chili Broth, and the artfully composed Metamorphisis -- a course as beautiful to look at as it was to taste. With a secret change, hence the name Metamorphosis. Dessert was a double delight: a showstopping Capirotada Baklava followed by a delicate Citrus Olive Oil Birthday Cake that brought the evening to a perfect, luminous close. What sets Chef Adrian apart is that he cooks with intention. You feel it in every course -- the cultural depth, the creativity, the genuine desire to honor his guests. My table was filled with joy, laughter, and pure amazement all evening long. If you are looking for a personal chef who elevates any occasion into an unforgettable memory, look no further. Chef Adrian Ortega and ADOR Cuisine are in a class of their own. He made my 70th birthday one of the greatest nights of my life.

    When I first started researching person chef's, I was spending way too much money eating out and…read morefeeling very sluggish. My workouts did not feel productive and my energy level was not the same. I wasn't sure if this would be feasible for me but I dove in head first. The first person I spoke to was not the right fit and I was then referred to Chef Beverly. We spoke by phone and after a great conversation, set a time to meet to see if this was something that would work for both of us. I liked her instantly and felt very comfortable with her. She took the time to really listen as I told her about my crazy, hectic life. She took notes as I told her my various likes, loves and dislikes. We talked about my nutritional goals and needs.. She was very easy to talk with and I was so impressed at how much time she spent with me and gave me ideas in how we could make this work for both of us. Over a few emails, we worked out the menus, times and days and then we were off to the races. It has been a wonderful partnership and education for me. I wanted to become familiar with my kitchen again and Chef Beverly has helped me to do that. With her help, I have gotten my shopping down to a science and have learned when extra is good and will get used up and when it's overkill. She has introduced me to new foods and flavors that I never expected. I needed high protein and she spent time researching my nutritional needs. In the time that we have been cooking, I feel great. She is always great about checking in mid week to see how things are going and how the food is tasting and if the amounts are right. She is open to opinions and ideas and is such a joy to work with. The convenience of being able to look in my refrigerator and grab what I want for the day and just go has made things so much easier. I do not have those carb cravings that we all survive on when we are exhausted. I can tell you that my goals were to eat healthy, clean foods, learn how to prepare these meals on my own, not waste money at the grocery store and graduate to doing this on my own. Thanks to Chef Beverly, I am on my way to meeting all those goals and it wouldn't have happened without her fantastic cooking skills, her knowledge, her patience, the lessons in time management, grocery shopping 101 and the camaraderie in the kitchen. The rates suited me perfectly and I was happy to trade all the take out for this healthy alternative.

    Stillwater Catering is beyond sensational!! Roxanne and her whole crew (Alex, Charlene and Sonia)…read moredid an incredible job at my mountain wedding on Mt. Lemmon in Tucson, AZ. From the beginning, communication and planning with Roxanne was easy and fun. When it came to the big day, everything was even better than I could have imagined. So many of our friends that attended said it was the best food they had ever had at a wedding. Everyone was talking about it the day after! The dishes were not only beautiful, they were absolutely delicious as well. The team also endured with us through extremely cold temperatures, blistering wind, rain and an episode of hail. I will forever be grateful for Roxanne and her crew at Stillwater Catering for helping make my wedding an incredible night to remember. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

    I hired Roxanne/Stillwater Catering to cook onsite at my house for a 2nd wedding reception (1st…read morereception was out of state). Roxanne was so easy to work with to create the perfect passed appetizers, dinner and dessert for our event. She arrived with one other lady about 5 hrs prior to event time, and once she started cooking, the house smelled amazing (prime rib)! From the appetizers to the main course, the food was absolutely delicious. It's a scary thing hiring someone that you have not used before, as you don't want to find out at your wedding reception, that the chef wasn't that great. It's been 2 weeks since Roxanne and her team catered my reception, and I still hear today how wonderful the food was and how nice and accommodating all the staff was (4 more ladies showed up later). Staff was amazing and super sweet, but honestly...the food...all the food was so delicious; I couldn't be happier. The prime rib was the best I have ever had! I can't recommend Roxanne enough, and I will definitely use her for any future events I have.
