I got the two meats with two sides, Smoked Brisket and Pork Belly, Rice n Beans and Mac n Cheese. The Brisket was FANTASTIC, great smoke ring and flavor, the bend and pull was exactly what you'd want, The bacon was a good complement with good chew and taste. The Mac n Cheese was delicious much better than I expected, Smokey taste but there was something else that made me want more, the rice was good, but the Mac n Cheese was just that good!! Best BBQ I've had since Martins in Nashville Tennessee. I can't wait to go back, this time I'm going to eat it there and just enjoy the atmosphere!!

Saw a review of Code 1 on tv Saturday. As a veteran, a sucker for good bbq, and a near resident of…read moretheir location, I decided to give it a try Saturday afternoon. It was not crowded. There was no one waiting for takeout. So I was a little-no, a lot- miffed to be waiting for my brisket sandwich. When I pointed out to the "chef," who was the only food preparer, who did double duty as front counter sandwich maker, that having five waitstaff standing around chattering, might be a poor allocation of help, and that I didn't think I would be back, she said "Suit yourself." I should also report that the brisket, served on a roll the size of a Thomas' English Muffin, was flavorless and tough. How do these places get good reviews? Do they write them themselves?

Ordered pick-up catering for a larger event than I am used to planning, and the owner/chef, Josiah,…read morewas kind enough to field my (several) questions regarding the correct amount of food, allergen safety, and appropriate food options for the event. When I arrived the day of the event to pick up my order, everything was packed in a way that was easy for me to transport, gluten and dairy free items were clearly labeled, hot items were piping, cold items were chilled, and when it came to the taste and presentation? Excellence. I called five other different catering companies in the greater Lowell area for info and quotes for this event, but Coleman came out on top with their clearly defined prices, pleasant service, and ability to help me out in keeping a crowd of people fed without having to worry about whether or not they would be allergic to something served. I have no personal dietary needs but having family that does, I know how sub-par in taste and texture GF and DF foods can be, but everything Coleman made was absolutely delicious, flavorful, and made with care. There were very, very few leftovers. :) Having never dealt with a catering company for a mid-size event that was being thrown for someone else, my anxiety for making sure everything was perfect was quite high, but dealing with Coleman was such a pleasant experience that it made things very easy despite the pressure. 10/10.

We recently used Coleman's Catering with only one week's notice, and they were amazing. Even though…read morethey were already busy that Saturday they still managed to provide a wonderful meal for 90 people. We did not hear one negative comment - but we did hear so many people praising the wonderful salads, sides, steak tips (cooked to perfection), the blueberry balsamic chicken, and especially the brisket- which was the best I ever had. I highly recommend Coleman's Catering; they were amazing to deal with and take great pride in both the food they serve and their service.

My son and daughter in law just had their wedding at the Carriage House at Lynch Park Beverly with…read moreVinwood. From the start Jessica from Vinwood was the most responsive of any caterer we contacted. She was very professional and easy to work with. As the wedding date approached we also worked with Gary who was great to work with and was a wonderful day of the wedding manager. He took the worry out of anything before it became a concern. They were both awesome to work with. The entire staff at the wedding were great. The chefs, waiters and waitresses as well as the bus boys and clean up crew to the bartenders were all professional, friendly and extremely helpful. The food, what can I say about the food...The kids wanted a bbq and Vinwood offers various buffet themed events. We went with the Western BBQ which included salad, bread, steak tips, ribs, sausage, chicken, corn and potato salad. All were excellent and our guests were raving about the food. There was something for everyone which was great. Prices for the buffet were very reasonable and lower than some that we looked into. All in all we expected great food with professional service and Vinwood delivered. We are very glad we went with them, they made the wedding very special.

Finally, they helped the couple spend their money wisely, making suggestions on where to spend and where to save. Thank you!!!

It was luncheon food starting with assorted cheeses, fresh fruit, three different types of quiche, three different gourmet sandwiches, a delicious tropical pasta salad, and a spinach strawberry salad. They provided yummy cookies and brownies for dessert. I received many compliments for the food. They provided two servers to set up and clean up and they did a wonderful job. They were very pleasant, attentive, efficient and unobtrusive. We also had a cake that we bought separately and the staff was more than willing to cut it for us. Jamie was very pleasant to work with and was very patient with all of my questions, requests, and changes. I am looking forward to hosting another event so I can use them again!

I spent a long time trying to decide on a caterer since food (and cost) were very important to me…read morefor my wedding. Alison, the event manager, not only acts as your caterer but she really does handle the event coordinator role too, and she is very familiar with it, so ladies, you can sit back and relax. Rentals, decorations, food - they handle it ALL so don't bother hiring an event coordinator - trust me, with these guys you don't need one. Budget: The people at Two Chefs really do work with your budget. In fact, they work harder than the typical caterer to be within your budget, whatever it may be. Alison understood me from the get-go and knew straight away what things could be done to lessen the numbers while still being completely honest with me. Actually, I think they ended up making it UNDER-my budget. Tasting: I ended up doing a tasting with Walter (one of the three head chefs) and he was phenomenal, staying with us to joke around and answer any questions we had. When we gave him our opinions on the food (the original chicken we had was a little dry and we weren't fond of the foccacia for a wedding setting), he didn't get upset. Instead, he pondered for a while and recommended a ton of other chicken dishes. That's what I call being a great chef. You don't take things personally, instead you aim to help your client as best you can. The meats at the tasting were all tender and juicy, the salad was extremely fresh (we had a choice of 3!) and the mashed potatoes were silky smooth and left you wanting more. Issues?: There was a slight problem with the linen numbers the day before the wedding and I started to get a panicky, but Steve (another head chef) stepped in and said that he'd take care of it. He even called me a second time to reassure me and tell me not to be worried about a thing. Again, amazing. Day of: Kathy (event coordinator) was a comforting presence at my side at all times to make sure I had everything I needed and to remind me of when I needed to do things. Steve (one of the 3 head chefs) was always there bringing me food so that I would be able to eat. Thank you Steve! What people said?: It was the best food they've ever had at a wedding. One friend said that normally the beef is either way undercooked or really dried out, but this was perfectly cooked beef and he had several helpings. And they were extremely efficient at clearing away plates, the place was spotless! More importantly, you're not a number to them - you become someone they want to get to know personally and to make happy - which is something you really can't pay for. Forget the big expensive caterers who end up costing you a fortune for food and service, Two Chefs works the service cost in so that you can see the final number and they work extra hard to make your wedding (or any event) perfect.
