Hot dogs, Hamburgers, Walking Taco, Nacho Bar, Circus Food, Grill service, BBQ, Chicken, Ribs, October Fest, Hawaiian Luau, Italian Fest, Potato Bar, Breakfast, Halloween Festival...need I say more? BUT the best is the ice cream carts and delivery. Great old fashion carts that stay cold unplugged for several hours. Several packages available. We supplied a cart for the 4th with ice cream popsicles, sandwiches and cones. So much fun we did an Italian wedding with Gelato and Italian ice in perfect sized 3oz cups. A big hit. Lots of fun in the heat. The owner Bob and assistant Jennifer are very nice, professional, and deliver on time. Ice cream stays very cold and arrives very cold. cartsofchicago.com

I had a really solid American burger from this food truck at our neighborhood 4th of July event…read more The brioche bun was toasted and flavorful. It held up the beef patty and toppings quite well. The beef patty had a good sear but wasn't real juicy. Apparently the side of the day changes and today was watermelon which I thought was weird. It wasn't as bad as I thought because, despite everything being served together, the burger and the watermelon remained fairly separated.

Next time I'm trying the fried chicken sandwich.

When I had my pizzeria, I tried making Italian beef in house but I could never get it consistently…read moregood enough to my satisfaction. I tried various vendors and Bari was the best by far. Consistently solid Italian beef and gravy every time. Consistency is major in the restaurant industry. They have a retail outlet at their facility for the general public. Every once a while I make the trip out there to load up. It's not near me but worth the trip. Their beef is great and prices are too. 3, 4, + 5 pound packages along with the gravy are available at the outlet. If you're having an event, they're the way to go. They have a website where you can order and have it shipped to you anywhere. They also have sausage, meatballs, + giardiniera but I've never had anything but their Italian beef so I can't comment on those items. For their beef, they've got my vote. Italian beef sandwiches for supper tonight!

Their food is seriously the most amazing we have ever had the pleasure of enjoying. We are blessed to have the world's best Syrian/Arab food so close to my mom's house in Lombard, IL.

I'm so happy with my experience that I want every potential client to know that they can trust Alrayes Catering for all of their events.

My company has been catering from Northern Fork for years and I'm always excited every time their…read morefood is brought in. For me, Northern Fork is excellent at doing elevated versions of familiar food with excellent flavor combinations and textures. I don't think I've ever had any item that I didn't enjoy but in general am delighted by what I have. Two things about the ingredients really stand out for me from this caterer. For most all of them, the vegetables are fresh and delicious, but Northern Fork's fruit is perfectly ripe and sweet. This way I never have to worry about getting a sour piece of fruit. The other thing is that I don't normally choose vegan food, but Northern Fork has managed to make everything taste delicious. Overall, everything about the food here seems to be on the healthier but still extremely tasty side and many items I've tried beat the flavor of local restaurants nearby.

I was super impressed with my first experience ordering from Graze Craze Schaumburg. I called for a…read moresame day pick-up and my tray was ready in just a few hours. The board I ordered was to serve eight people and I needed something for a work potluck. It was pricey, but worth it as everyone loved it. The red pepper beet hummus was centered on the tray and everyone who tried it complimented it. I was delighted to see the wooden tongs and scoops for the dips included with the board. While I did ask for nut free, due to allergies at our work location, this place is not a nut free facility, so be aware if you have anyone with a severe allergy. I attended a grand opening event at a Woodfield Mall store and they had the individual cups from Graze Craze for their event. They were so delicious and easy to hold while shopping the store event. This business also donates to local charity and cares about community impact and reducing waste. Kirsten was a joy to work with and very accommodating. I will certainly be back for another board for future parties.

I've had my eye on this place ever since I saw their "Coming Soon" sign in the window. I mean, who…read moredoesn't love charcuterie boards?! But arrange those salami roses on my own? Not happening. I was lucky to try their classic board for a party I hosted this week. It had a little bit of everything: strawberries, blueberries, grapes, blackberries, dried cherries, bread, crackers, delicious cheeses, carrots, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, peppers, nuts, meats, and chocolate! It was a colorful feast for the eyes (and belly!). Their homemade pickles, beet and red pepper hummuses, and seriously delicious jams added the perfect touch. Everyone at the party grazed until they were stuffed! Party goers said they would love to have Graze Craze cater their next party or work lunch. I will definitely order from Graze Craze again! I hope you'll stop in too!

We did the chef's choice option so we could try many of the meat and veggies options, and I enjoyed the combinations chef put together for us. Meat was cooked perfectly, the veggies were fresh, and the meals left us feeling satisfied. Delivery was also easy and meals came with no issues. I would highly recommend this for your meal prep needs. We look forward to ordering more meals from Meadowlark.
