High-quality fruit, cheese, and crackers. Our guests loved the food! Presentation: Each tray was BEAUTIFULLY presented!

My friend from Highland Park said their potatoe salad was the best she had. My Vegan friend said there pasta veggie salad was a meal in itself. They served chicken, burgers and Italian sausage.

I used them in the past for a celebration of life at the Knights of Columbus in Arlington Heights as they were one of their vendors. Veggie Trays, mini sandwiches, etc. The feedback from that was why I hired them again for something completely different. Both occasions have made them my vendor of choice.

From the very beginning, we knew FFT was the right vendor for us because they took our favorite foods and crafted a completely customized menu perfectly tailored to what we enjoyed and what we envisioned for the event. From there, they then worked with us to refine the menu as we kept coming up with crazy ideas. We literally emailed Anna about how we had just tasted a delicious Oreo brownie and she had it added to our desserts right away. We also wanted a very custom bar menu, and they worked with us to get us all the different brands we were looking for, going so far as to drive to Indiana to source some of them. The other aspect of their menu that made such an impact was all the interactive food stations. Everything is so creatively presented and designed. At our tasting, Anna had literally taken elements of our décor and paper goods and other motifs and woven them throughout the presentations from custom serving trays to glass designs. Everything felt intentional and thought out. Guests were constantly praising this attention to detail. Every station had some element of action to it as well, making everything feel like a unique experience. In all of this, the food was all delicious. We wish we can eat and experience it all over again. We still dream of Chef Arlene's Guava and Cheese Empanadas. Throughout the process, Anna was extremely easy to work with and very responsive. One thing we wanted to highlight was that we wanted to be very careful with allergens. Despite the high number of dishes, Anna did a fantastic job working to highlight all the possible allergens in every item, taking the request very seriously. We also wanted to praise the service for the actual day-of catering. They had their full team there, and the professional service was fantastic from top to bottom. Our guests praised the food endlessly, and people who were planning their wedding wanted to know all the background details into our catering choice. That is just more proof that Food for Thought was the perfect caterer, and we couldn't have asked for anything more.

Considering I am from Texas, I will admit I can be a little particular when it comes to BBQ, but this was pretty good BBQ, especially this far north. The smoked meats were flavorful, tender, and had a good slow-cooked taste. The brisket, pulled pork, rib tips, and sausage all brought something different, and the variety made the meal feel like a true sampler experience. The sides were just as good. The mac and cheese, red beans and rice, collard greens, apple slaw, and cornbread all had that comforting soul food feel and paired really well with the BBQ. Overall, Soul & Smoke delivered on both the smoke and the soul. Great flavor, generous portions, and a satisfying meal from start to finish. Definitely a spot worth visiting if you are in Evanston and looking for good BBQ and soul food.

My friends and I hit Noon at least once a month for our "vent session" and the waitstaff know us by now. They know we will need a nice glass of wine (heavy pour is needed-lol). And they bring the food in waves so we have time to sit and enjoy. I love this place on a weeknight because it is always bustling with people. Families, groups of older gents out for their weekly get together and friends like my table. Love the vibe! Please know- you can choose the dine in "north side" of the building for a nice outing with full bar service or you can choose the "south side" entrance for a casual faster service vibe geared for delivery pick up and tv to watch for a quick dine in. I find the staff to be very nice, welcoming and they will explain anything you don't know about. The menu is very detailed and lots of pictures.
