I joined 10 others retirees for lunch at The Brookside Market. We have been here before and they…read morehave never disappointed. The menu is simple, yet varied. The portions and quality are a great value for the money. You start by placing your order at the counter getting your beverage, and taking a seat. They bring your order to your table in a timely manner, we had 11 men, everyone was served together. The store also offers the whole menu for take out. A great selection of wine, beer, and spirits are available as well. Very clean operation with plenty of parking. Do yourself a favor and try them out. Beautiful ride through Baltimore County country side.

I usually enjoy Brookside Market, but my experience at brunch today was disappointing. One thing to…read moreknow is that during brunch there isn't table service, you have to order at the counter first, even though they offer wait service later in the day. The biggest issue was the customer service. The woman working the ordering counter, who had dark brown hair pulled back into a ponytail and a small white necklace (not Izzy) was unfriendly and came across as irritated from the moment we walked in. When I placed my order, every time I asked for something she either looked at me like I had asked a ridiculous question or didn't respond at all. It made the whole interaction feel uncomfortable and unwelcoming. I understand everyone has off days, but if you're working in customer service, it's important not to take a bad mood out on customers. A simple response or friendly attitude goes a long way and would have made for a much better experience.

Chef's Expressions at the Manor truly made our wedding magical. Sarah Armstrong was our event…read moreconsultant and she was AMAZING. She helped us get better deals on aspects of our big day, figure out how to get what we wanted within budget, and mapped out every detail to perfection. Sarah made sure that everything was planned in a way that made the most sense and following her guidance led us to a day I dreamed of. When there were hiccups with a bartender being out due to COVID, she was quick to come up with a solution and I didn't even know of the issue until after the night was over. Sarah handled everything on the day-of, even transporting our personal décor, so I only had to concentrate on being with my people and soaking it all in. On top of all of that, the food was AMAZING. I would eat their short ribs for every meal and the fennel and ricotta flatbread was to die for. Everyone says you don't eat at your own wedding but Chef's Expressions made sure we got served a little of EVERYTHING so we got to eat every single dish at our wedding and they were all phenomenal. I didn't think pasta would hold up well served en masse but the pesto especially was really phenomenal. Every hors d'oeuvres, station, and dessert was delicious. Our cake was also provided through Chef's Expressions and was one of the best wedding cakes I had ever eaten. Sarah and the team at Chef's Expressions at the Manor do a phenomenal job and I would recommend them to everyone looking for phenomenal food on a reasonable budget.

I worked with Chef's Expressions for my wedding this September. The venue I used only used Chef's…read moreExpressions so it was obvious they would be our caterer. *We were told from day 1 that they also do Day-Of organizing for an event and we would not need a wedding planner as it would be redundant.* This was reiterated through the 7 months we worked with them. Pros: - The food was delicious - The tasting was also delicious as the food is very good -The servers at my wedding were awesome and helpful - They helped create a layout for the wedding - They seemed to listen to what we wanted - They created a timeline of the wedding Cons: - They had last minute questions that should have been addressed at the tasting/ questions were asked that we had reviewed at the tasting (cake flavor, types of alcohol, etc.) Instead of asking them the month before the wedding they were asked the week of the wedding. - The day-of coordinator that was promised was invisible. - The clean up of the event was disorganized. I ended up taking items with me that were supposed to go to a point person that was known by all parties. As a bride, this is the last thing you want to have to think about. If the event coordinator were present they would have known this. - A gift was lost and chef's expressions did not seem concerned. With hindsight 20/20, I would have hired a wedding planner and waited until the year 2020 where The Maryland Historical Society will allow other caterers.

Brendon and Kristen got back to me promptly and happily with answers to my questions. I was nervous to turn over the reins to my daughter's micro wedding to anyone but Liliahna gave me peace of mind. They were so knowledgeable and willing to please. On the day of the wedding, they sent me a crew of 5 people who worked together like a well-oiled machine. If we needed or wanted something, it magically appeared...served up with a smile. The food was excellent and beautifully presented. Brooke, our bartender was so kind and efficient. Everything was done with a feeling of family. I would never hesitate to recommend Liliahna to anyone looking for a caterer. They have my highest recommendation! As I told Brendon, I may have to invent another celebration just to have them back. Liliahana provided us with a first class, stress-free fairy tale wedding. I am so grateful!

Chef brendon catered my sisters wedding and all I can say is that he was a disaster. both my sister…read moreand I have backgrounds in catering (i ran my own very successful catering business in NY for 25 years and retired during covid) My sister was very thorough and is very detail oriented so she had many requests for Brendon, which he said he could and would do, but then didn't, as he never put her requests into the contract, although she has the request Texts and Brendons positive response 1. she had 100 guests, Brendon said a staff of 7 was plenty, both my sister and I felt 10 staff but he assured her they were a well oiled machine and all would be fine. He only had 6 staff, three of which were University of Maryland students who knew nothing about set up, break down, presentation etc... it was a very ungracious level of service. Tables perpetually were filled with dirty plates and glasses. 2. she specifically discussed not having a tip cup at the bar, I walked out to find one anyway, and bar tenders said Brendon allowed it 3. most of the food was frozen, or Purchased from a store like Costco, her " Grilled protein mains-chicken, beef and shrimp-were pregrilled and cold (actually the shrimp looked raw), all of his salad dressing were bottled dressings from the grocery store (appaulling). He was so understaffed he was never able to wash and cut berries to add to his fruit platters, so he took them all back to his facility 4. he assured her his staff would help with set up, break down and they would clean up. His three boys didn't know what they were doing-fortunately since I had my own catering business, MY family, quite seasoned in catering, stepped in to help and finish. 5. At the end of the evening someone side swiped one of his staffs car (staff was parked on a public street) that was the end of work for the staff member and the other two staff he transported that day, leaving cleanup to Brendon and his two bartenders.... They didn't fully clean the kitchen, not a single counter was wiped, nor the floor swept, and the two desserts provided by me and a guest were just left for us to clean. garbage wasn't emptied , rentals not packed and back together. My family came the next day and broke down all the tables and chairs. In the end, what could have been a spectacular wedding (decor was stunning, and the band great) was only beautiful. I read all of Brendon credentials, but his food didn't reflect his credentials at all and his service was ungracious and lacking. Anyone hiring him should make sure all details discussed and agreed to are then actually transferred and written into the contract. To have to clean up a wedding as a guest in my wedding cloths was horrible. I actually wanted to cry.....not to mention what it meant to my sister I her bridal gown
