They handled everything, made us feel calm and relaxed, adapted to weather and venue challenges, and hit it out of the park. When dozens of guests from all walks of life and all parts of the country seek you out to ask who is responsible for the "Best wedding with the best food" they've ever attended, you know it's a hit. I will be using Atlantic for every corporate event we do from now on, and refusing to attend any wedding that doesn't have them as the caterer. Well, maybe not the last part. Thank you , thank you, thank you for literally MAKING her day.

We've used Class Act Catering by Jim Britton twice. Both times the food was outstanding; however,…read morewe had a horrible customer experience on 10/14/2023 that obliterates any possible positive rating. Last Saturday 10/14/2023 we were hosting a 3pm event at our home. I signed and returned the contract to Class Act on 10/10/2023 for a 1pm pick-up on 10/14/2023. My husband went to Class Act at 9631 Liberty Road to get our food at 1:15pm. When he first arrived, he saw employees walking by, but no one offered to help him, no one acknowledged his presence for a couple of minutes (strike one). When he finally caught the attention of an employee and explained why he was there, the employee went to check on our order and argued that the pick-up time was 2pm, not 1pm (strike 2). My husband told him he was wrong. The argumentative employee finally asked my husband if he had paperwork. Prepared, my husband showed him the contract which really angered the employee. The employee was unprofessional (strike 3) and now my husband is hot. The unapologetic employee finally loaded the food in my husband's truck and my husband left. My husband returns home fussing and promising to never have any future dealings with Class Act. He's almost done unloading the items when I hear him yell from the kitchen. I went to the garage to see about the commotion. He dropped half of the sweet and sour meatballs in the driveway, because he burned his hand. Unbeknownst to him, someone put a lit sterno (chafing fuel can) in his vehicle. I can't use enough adjectives to express how angry he was at that moment. I called Class Act Catering by Jim Britton at 1:54pm last Saturday to report what just occurred (an employee placed a lit chafing fuel can in our vehicle), but no one answered. Someone needed to know what just occurred, so my daughter and I drove to Class Act to return a dish that we didn't order and to report the incident. {(FYI... I had to omit a lot of this story; it exceeded the maximum character length for leaving a rating, but I spoke to Jim Britton's brother in-law last Saturday before our event.)} Disappointingly, I did not hear from Class Act by Jim Britton on Monday (10/16/2023) or Tuesday (10/17/2023), so I called at 10:04 a.m. on Wednesday (10/18/2023) and the phone went to their answering service even though they opened at 9:30am. (Strange!) I left a message with my name and number asking for Mr. Jim Britton to return my call. I never received a call on Wednesday, so I called before business hours (at 8am) on Thursday (10/19/2023) and left another message- still no response from Class Act. You probably guessed - no response on Friday (10/20/2023) either. My husband noticed burn marks in the back of the truck today when he was cleaning it (10/21/2023). There is damage to the rear carpet and door. As I reviewed my credit card statement today, I noticed that CLASS ACT CATERING by JIM BRITTON OVERCHARGED ME. My signed contract and confirmation email say one price, but they billed my credit card a higher price (yes more than the contracted price). I get the privilege to pay even more money for: 1) last year's damaged stovetop that they ignored 2) rude argumentative employees 3) an INSULTING CONDESCENDING brother in-law 4) a burnt hand 5) half of a dish (half the meatballs were dropped) 6) a lit item that damaged our vehicle 7) no follow-up phone call, no doing right by the customer, no attempt to fix the problem, no prioritization, no empathy! It looks like Jimmy Britton has arrived. As his brother in-law told me... "it's not about the money... this here, we can do 50 times over!" after exclaiming that Mr. Britton's business was built on EXCELLENT customer service and always giving more than expected. We definitely did not expect what they gave us. They've had two opportunities to do right by us, and they haven't done so yet. For this reason and because I cannot give zero stars, I gave a rating of 1 star. The food is excellent, but at what cost?

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.

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.

The reception's Mediterranean station was beautiful and fresh. The dinner buffet menu imaginative and delicious. One particularly surprising touch was they sent passed items to the tables to tempt the guests AFTER they had already been thru the buffet. Very thoughtful! I've had spanikopita countless times before but not with their herb crusted filo. Oh my God they were good! Their wait staff were friendly and well trained, not some hacks off of Craig's List. They never let dirty glasses or plates pile up. The bartenders didn't let long lines build up and we never ran out of glasses, ice, or liquor. Per request, we had plenty of non-alcoholic options. (You must try the Persian Iced Tea; it is sooo refreshing!) I met the kitchen staff and they were as organized, professional, and polite as could be. The venue we chose (Cylburn Arboretum) loves them. I'm sure The Pantry can pull off a traditional American wedding menu but we went for a foodie experience and they delivered.
