Our guests are still talking about the exquisite food, unique from any other wedding they've attended. They recall every ingredient that was in the dishes at my wedding- something I never remember at others! Linda puts her whole heart into her craft and not only does she make delicious food and cake, she also makes it look gorgeous on the table like a work of art. Thank you Linda for my unforgettable wedding.

It was an absolute pleasure to work with Linda and the Grounded team. They were kind and supportive as we worked through creative menu options and budget goals, Linda herself walking me through recommendations to customize the menu for our large crowd (a special dinner for 20) over a call that felt like I was talking with a long friend. I had reached out to three different groups as options for the event, and after this experience there was no contest that Linda's genuine excitement and creativity for showcasing quality and local ingredients (plus warm and amazing personality overall) was going to be a perfect fit. Linda not only delivered on what we planned but exceeded expectations by adding some just-foraged (that day!) fabulously fresh ingredients in a delightful bonus preparation. The proteins were perfectly executed, and I basically could not stop eating every single vegetable preparation -- the way these elements shined really showed what local is all about. Top that off with more great conversation, I couldn't have hoped for a better experience. I look forward to the opportunity to work with Linda and the team again!

I've had the fried chicken twice now and it's perfect -- The mashed potatoes are an ultra smooth purée. I had the garlic greens and must say I like them even better than the mashed potatoes!!

It's worth a lot to walk into such a cute place and have a great experience every time. Still 5 stars!!!

Country-chic style, cozy+dim feel and the black and white in-your-face white checkerboard floor make up the inside design. The only thing missing on an unseasonably cool August summer was a crackling log fire. Their menu, is the main catch here. The menu changes often(?) depending on what's in season. Go for the prepped veggies+proteins or order from the menu like I did. Their 'Specials' menu lists items you can tweak and their regular menu offers fixed items. I ordered from both. Hubs enjoyed the grilled chicken panini with Swiss+raw onions and mayo I picked for him. My mixed green salad with feta+walnuts+apples+cranberries was great on its own- but I added a grilled salmon piece for added protein. Purely wholesome. I hesitated using their provided balsamic 'dressing' for fear it might include any kind of mustard- but that sucker was a silky balsamic emulsion that made my entire salad come together- even drizzled it on my salmon. And the soup in all this? Hubs liked the meat chili and I thoroughly enjoyed my Vegan Chili. If you're having your meal here, be ready for the laid-back mood and pleasant service from Deb.

During the wait, I saw multiple other people check on their orders and that's when the staff realized they lost order tickets. My friend had ordered the rogue (braised short rib sandwich) and did not enjoy it at all, stating there was no flavor to the meat. Do not bother trying Wandering Dago.

We found Chef Deanna through Instagram and were intrigued. I sent her a quick note, and next thing…read moreyou know, we're on a phone call for over an hour that felt like 10 minutes. We asked Deanna to cater our 115 person, mountain top wedding with as much fire-prepared food as possible. Think Francis Mallmann (google him if you arent familiar). No running water. No electricity. She was game. She was more than game. She came ready to rumble and was cooking on the fire pit from morning until late night. Deanna is warm, talented, energetic, charming, and generous. She made amazing, locally sourced, fresh food our guests are still raving about. She has real relationships with farmers and producers in the area - her local connections are priceless. Her whole team never broke their professionalism and wowed us with their service and hospitality. She helped our moms serve apple pies instead of wedding cake. She sprinkled flowers all over the buffet tables. She shared with us all her beautiful old plates. She surprised us with a late night round of sloppy joes. She let us borrow all the props and baskets and water jugs for our whole wedding weekend, even for events that she wasn't specifically there for. I could go on and on. Book with Deanna, she is a true unicorn of the catering world.

We postponed two times, and Chef Deanna was incredibly accommodating throughout it all. In fact -- she supported our decision to postpone (even the second time!) when so many people questioned why we were doing it. Postponing twice was absolutely the right decision, and we had our dream wedding on 4/9/22 of this year. Chef Deanna worked with us to create a menu that was rustic and aligned with our tastes/personalities. We did a barbecue buffet for the main course -- with macaroni and cheese, multiple types of meat, cornbread, etc. -- and a more classic cocktail hour with charcuterie/cheese etc. Everything was delicious. My only regret is that I didn't go up for seconds! In ADDITION to that, Chef Deanna provided her gorgeous vintage plates that were a perfect fit with our venue. This really helped make our planning easier, and added to the beauty of the tables on the day. Everything went seamlessly -- We could not have been happier with Chef Deanna's catering!
