We all fawn over the gorgeous crudite platters. It's a feast for your eyes for sure. Beyond the amazing food, the service is top notch. Great communication from Kristen, and super thoughtful after-service follow through. We order a lot of lunches at my office, and Plates and Bowls is a frequent request. Love the song title names of their lunch spreads, too.

I truly cannot say enough good things about Dawn and Party In A Box Catering. They catered both our…read morerehearsal dinner and our wedding dinner, and they were absolutely incredible from start to finish. For our rehearsal dinner, we had an Italian spread, and I am not exaggerating when I say the lasagna was literally the best lasagna I have ever had in my life. I ate the leftovers for an entire week and was genuinely sad when they were gone. For our wedding dinner, we had a taco bar, and it was a dream. The chicken was freaking phenomenal, the food was fresh, flavorful, and exactly what we hoped for. Dawn also made our wedding dessert dreams come to life with an assortment of desserts that were just as beautiful as they were delicious. Beyond the food, their professionalism, presentation, and display were unlike anything I have ever seen. Everything looked amazing, ran smoothly, and felt so thoughtfully done. I genuinely cannot imagine our wedding weekend without them. The only downside is that the food was so good I felt morally obligated to ask Dawn and her team to move into our home, because I'm honestly not sure how I'm supposed to live without their cooking now. We are so grateful for them and would recommend Party In A Box Catering a million times over!

She promptly returned my emails, answered my calls, and gave me great guidance when I asked her about set up, food amount, etc. I ended up doing a full-service themed buffet, and I'm so glad I did. The Fork in the Road crew took care of everything! (Shout out to Natasha, Andrew, and Lana!) They set up a gorgeous display and food just kept magically appearing. They gauged the crowd to see when they should start and stop tray passed hors d'ourvres, when they should start buffet service, and when to clean up. They cleaned everything up like they had never even been there, and packed up all the extra food and put it in my fridge. This crew knew what they were doing and took care of everything! I wish I had pictures to share but I was so busy mingling and not worrying about catering that I completely forgot! I am definitely using them the next time I need a caterer.
