    Our beautiful sweet table for our outdoor wedding from Viola's Kitchen

    Viola's Kitchen went above and beyond to make our wedding beautiful, unique, and exactly how we dreamed of. The food was INCREDIBLE - a modern take on traditional food that's not only plated beautifully, but tastes delicious. Our guests are still talking about it! Viola's Kitchen also helped coordinate the vendors and decor, which made my life so much easier. I cannot recommend Viola's Kitchen enough! 5++ stars.

    5 stars are not enough to rate Viola's Kitchen and their exceptional services and phenomenal food. They offer wide range if options for appetizers, entrees and sides and is needless to say the food is delicious. Variety that tastes great! I expected excellence and in fact, all they did for my party was beyond my expectations! The guests to my party were amazed as well. I was happy to offer them the best. I highly recommend their services and am thankful that they did everything so that we had the best party ever! Thank you, Viola's Kitchen!

    Sweet table

    I highly recommend Viola's Kitchen! The food is unique, tasty and has so much soul and love cooked into it! From last minute small friend get togethers to well planned family events, Viola and her team is always professional. Starting from great communication before to clean-up after! Viola's experience and attention to detail is out on a table :) You can not go wrong with this one...

    I cannot say enough positive things about Viola! Her professionalism, aesthetic and food is unmatched. She catered both my Bridal Shower and the late night food for my Wedding both of which received rave reviews. She also acted as my Day-Of Wedding Coordinator/Event Planner Extraordinaire. She has a great eye for detail and is very patient and understanding of your needs. She honestly goes above and beyond with each task handed to her. Whether you're having a small gathering or a 300+ person wedding, Viola will pull it off seamlessly.

    I'm so glad that I stumbled across Unforgettable Edibles! I planned my sister's bridal shower (from…read morethe West Coast) and trusted the rave reviews and this women-owned business did not disappoint! Ordering Process: I got the mini sandwiches and the fruit and cheese tray. Ordering was super easy and stress-free. They could customize the type and number of sandwiches with no problem and I also added the fruit and cheese tray after the fact, which was accommodated. Quality: I ordered the mini-sandwiches - chicken salad, turkey gouda, and veggie caprese. Each was so delicious. The cheese and fruit tray were beautifully presented and had plenty of variety. High-quality fruit, cheese, and crackers. Our guests loved the food! Presentation: Each tray was BEAUTIFULLY presented! I also loved that the little card labels came with the order so it was easy to set things up. (see picture). Overall: I'm beyond thrilled with the whole order, From start to finish it was so smooth and the food was well presented and delicious. You cannot ask for more. These gals go above and beyond. I will order from them again and am so proud to support a women-owned business!

But from the moment we started working with Greg, all of those worries disappeared! Our experience was the complete opposite -- everything was absolutely fantastic. The food was amazing, our guests loved it, and the staff was kind, friendly, and professional throughout the entire day. Greg exceeded every expectation I had. He stayed in constant communication, answered all of my questions, reassured me every step of the way, and truly delivered on everything he promised. Thank you so much, Greg, for making our day so special and stress-free. You did an incredible job, and we are so grateful! Highly recommend Catering Made Simple!

    Catering Made Simple Full Transparent Review - BRIDE BEWARE: How This Vendor Nearly Ruined My…read moreWedding (With Proof) LONGER AND FULL REVIEW IS ON THEIR FACEBOOK PAGE FROM ME and also in video format @blurrybutblooming on TikTok: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1BLwhwhgft/?mibextid=wwXIfr If I could give zero stars, I would. Catering Made Simple was, without question, the most stressful, unprofessional, and disappointing vendor of my entire wedding. What makes it worse is that the owner chose coercion over accountability -- attempting to pressure me into deleting my review before even agreeing to speak with me. That alone should tell you how they handle their mistakes. I posted multiple public notices tagging them and gave them a deadline -- Friday, September 26 at 12:00 PM -- to reach out and make things right. Despite several attempts, they ignored every one. Planning Failures: Our contract clearly stated a plated dinner, and I provided a detailed color-coded diagram with guest names, allergies, and meal choices weeks in advance. Despite this, staff insisted it was a buffet while we were lined up for our ceremony. I had to walk into the reception in my gown minutes before walking down the aisle to correct them. Because of their confusion and refusal to listen, our ceremony was delayed -- critical time lost as we were already working around rain. Execution Failures: We paid for full cake service, but utensils were missing, and flimsy tools from a décor box labeled "Do not use" were handed to us. Our cake, made by a close friend, was ruined when staff shoved a fragile custom topper -- still in its frame -- into the cake, splitting the top tier. One staff member even called it "cheap." They also failed to provide the highboy table we paid for and placed our cake awkwardly in the back of the dessert table. Guest Service Failures: Staff hovered over tables and repeatedly asked guests if they were finished. My own half-eaten meal was cleared while I was in the restroom, leaving me hungry at my own wedding. When I asked for water, I was escorted to the bar instead of being served. Professionalism & Accountability: My coordinator was harassed to the point of tears, and staff even threatened to pull me aside during the reception to complain about her. The owner, Greg, was present all night, saw me address problems directly, and never once spoke to me or apologized. Instead, he posted defensive public comments and tried to coerce me into removing my review. The only positive: the food was warm, tasty, and as expected from the tasting -- but that's where the good ends. The impact on our wedding was significant: * Our ceremony was delayed. * My coordinator was harassed. * Our cake -- lovingly made by a friend -- was ruined. * Guests felt uncomfortable. * I was left hungry. * The owner refused to take responsibility. To top it all off, I have since been blocked from a major Chicago wedding vendor group -- likely due to a complaint from Catering Made Simple -- instead of them engaging in constructive dialogue. Catering Made Simple failed in planning, execution, professionalism, and accountability. They caused unnecessary stress and ruined key moments of a once-in-a-lifetime day -- and then tried to silence me. Brides and grooms: do not risk your wedding on this company.
