We placed a large Thanksgiving order with Chef Mario, Inc. in Raleigh, and they never delivered it…read more Not late -- never. We tried calling multiple times and only reached an answering service that couldn't provide any real help. No one from the actual business ever called us back. No updates. No explanation. No apology. Nothing. For a holiday order that families rely on, this level of disregard is unacceptable. We were left scrambling at the last minute because this company simply did not show up or communicate. Based on our experience, Chef Mario, Inc. feels completely unreliable, and we strongly urge others to think twice before placing an order. A business that takes holiday payments and then disappears is not one you should trust with something this important. Avoid the headache -- look elsewhere.

We recently hired Chef Cheri to cater a 95th birthday party in Chapel Hill. She is extremely easy…read moreto work with in terms of planning a menu. We chose a chicken dish and portabella mushrooms as our two entrees. We then had a beautiful salad and two vegetable sides for dinner. She also provided a beautiful charcuterie tray to start the night as well as infused water to accompany the meal. She arrived at the home early with her partner and set up the buffet. They were both friendly, professional and attentive to our needs. It was beautifully presented and kept fresh for the evening. At the end of the event, everything was left clean and sparkling in the home. I highly recommend Cheri for any event you choose to cater. Her prices are reasonable, her service is excellent and the food is truly delicious!

My wife and parents-in-law chose to use the Food Fairy to cater our wedding in Pittsboro, NC (June…read more2016). I had gone on a spearfishing trip to Baja and caught a bunch of yellowtail to serve at the wedding. She served it seared, on a stick, with watermelon and basil. It was incredibly creative, made an amazing presentation and was mouth-watering good. I have high standards and especially with fish. The other dishes were all amazing and we still talk about them today. Aside from the top-notch quality, Terri was very responsive in communications and her whole staff is a pleasure to be with. I'd highly recommend her and look forward to having an opportunity to work with her again in future. Terri, thank you so much for our Food Fairy wand/stirring spoon. To this day it's one of our favorite kitchen utensils.

I cannot say enough good things about Terri, the Food Fairy. I also cannot say enough good things…read moreabout the mind-blowingly delicious food she presented at my wedding two weeks ago. Terri truly went above and beyond to craft a menu that was reflective of our personalities and tastes. Balancing my needs as a pescatarian with his cravings for red meat was no easy task. Add to that my southern roots and his Cuban culture and you could have a real mess! No such thing occurred, though. The appetizers and dinner presented were like a work of art - variations on a theme. We received many compliments on the food from our guests. Terri and her team created mouth-watering dishes and presented them gorgeously. Who could ask for more?
