Everything is always cooked perfectly and the flavors are next level. He works together beautifully with his wife who makes awesome desserts. It is a full service experience from start to finish--preparing a menu, cooking food on site at your home, and then they take care of all the clean up when it's over. Not only is Chef Al an amazing chef, but he also is a pleasure to talk to, he's engaging, and he's happy to answer questions. Our kids love him too! If you're looking for an amazing private chef to deliver the ultimate luxurious dining experience, look no further. Chef Al is your guy!

WOW what an incredible dinner experience!…read more We provided Chef Al with a rough idea of our dinner preferences along with a couple food allergies and he created a stunning menu in no time. He was also able to make adjustments as needed. The private dinner was absolutely phenomenal and delicious. Chef Al is no ordinary chef, you can tell he has some upscale culinary training and experience. The food was so delicious we didn't want to stop eating lol. Ahi with an incredible soy orange glaze over crispy wontons and Chilean sea bass cooked to perfection were just a couple of the highlights from our dinner. Chef Al is so great this was actually the second time we booked him! And his encore was just as incredible as the first private dinner he did for us last year. Super friendly and professional - would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for the perfect private dinner experience.

Food was delivered timely. We didn't need coffee, water, or paper products since the venue provided these. The only thing that was a bit off putting was that the sausage wasn't cooked all the way through. I suspect because they figured it would sit in chafing dishes longer and cook in them. We had enough left over to provide a nice breakfast option for the church the next morning for their community breakfast. Would use them again.

Just recently my friends wedding was catered by Creations Catering and Events in Sanford, and I…read moreattended the initial tasting, as I am a bridesmaid, have attended many weddings, and am a decent cook, and expect a lot for the money. We worked mostly with Monica, but met the chef as well. I could start chronologically, but let's just cut to the chase. From the tasting, the personal service, the variety of choices, and almost most importantly, the price, we got it all!!! Almost $20 pp cheaper than a wedding recently involved with at a fancy downtown Orl.Historical Bed and Breakfast, and CCE was soooo much more delicious! Monica came with several attendants/servers/set-up on time, had all of her linens, supplies, everything she needed. Her people were sweet, and we had a cash bar with a very nice bar tender, who also served free tea and lemonade. The food was perfect. Fancy salad with cheese, fruit, special greens, very flavorful and seasoned vegetables and loaded mashed potatoes, rolls, Tender Beef Burgundy, Chicken Piccata-I think-it was a few months ago-... We had desserts in addition to the wedding cake (read review for Patricia Ames "Cake Designers-Wedding Cake Creations" in Sanford , who was recommended by this caterer and is the best ANYWHERE). Busing of tables was discrete and prompt (former waitress talking here), cleanup was thorough, and there were no areas that we could have asked to be better.

The flavours were nice, so decided to get one of the Chicken and Yellow rice bowl along with Shirley's special salsa for $8. While I thought the chicken by itself was good, how the food was put together seriously sucked. Firstly the yellow rice seriously tasted super oily and I kept biting into under-cooked grains. Also Shirley's special salsa was just really not to my taste - there was some herb in there that just overwhelmed the salsa. The icing on the cake was the two stale tortilla chips that we were given as garnish. My fault was in not checking out the Yelp reviews before purchasing. I would not purchase food from their stall again. Note: #378 of Yelp 100 challenge for 2016

We used John and Shirley for a wedding recently…read more The first red flag came a couple of weeks before the wedding, when Shirley called to say they would be about 75 plates short... meaning we had to go buy our own plates just a few weeks before the event. We also found out just days before the wedding that they would be unable to provide the agreed-upon linen napkins... cue panic attack. It was also slightly alarming to have to explain to what a charger was to their "office manager"... caterers should probably be aware of basic table setting lingo, no? Fast forward to the night of the event. The food was mediocre at best, but the service was appalling. Unfortunately it was raining that evening, and the reception was outdoors. They left food out, uncovered, in the rain, resulting in soggy salad and inedible appetizers (which, of course, we still paid for)... Saran wrap, anyone? Despite the servers' incredibly rude enforcement of portion sizing, we still ran out of several menu items, which is especially concerning since our total guest count was lower than anticipated. Alcohol was unmarked, placed next to iced tea, resulting in children and recovering alcoholics nearly unknowingly drinking vodka-based punch. As soon as the last guest was through the line, John, Shirley and crew hurriedly packed up and left. Silverware and dirty plates were left everywhere. The entire wedding party spent the evening cleaning the mess John and Shirley left behind rather than enjoying the reception. But the real icing on the cake? When Shirley asked if she could keep those 75 extra plates... for free. The plates we had to purchase out of our own pocket to compensate for her unpreparedness. Classy.

Vegan Halloween Wedding - Absolutely hit it out of the park!…read more My brother enlisted me to help him find a vegan caterer for his Wedding on Halloween and I'm so grateful I found Arthur's. I had reached out to a couple of caterers in the area prior with the only requirement being the food had to be 100% vegan (very important to my brother and his bride). Every other caterer I spoke to pushed back on this and tried to get us to consider at least vegetarian (I think it might have been because they were intimidated by planning that type of menu?) but not Arthur's. Patty was our coordinator and she was a delight to work with - responsive, accommodating and put our minds at ease. The food itself was phenomenal! During cocktail hour there was a harvest table with all kinds of dips, roasted veggies, and a vegan sausage. They also had passed h'orderves which included a falafel, polenta cake and spring rolls which were to die for! The staff kept the plates coming so guests were never without something to munch on while enjoying drinks. At dinner there were 3 stations: 1.) americana/BBQ (buffalo cauliflower, jackfruit sliders, mac and "cheese", collard greens) 2.) Wok/Stir fry (tofu, rice, veggies, spicy sauce) 3.) Italian (eggplant rolitini, creamy veggie pasta, rolls) And then there was a late night snack! mini black bean burgers to satisfy the late night dancing and drinking craving. Needless to say no one went hungry and while this was a fully vegan menu there were only about 7 actual vegans at the whole wedding, yet the entire guest list raved about the menu. I can't recommend Arthur's highly enough. Thank you to Patty and her staff for an amazing night and for making my brother's wedding so delicious and so special!

I generally make it a point to only leave positive reviews, but I cannot stay quiet about the…read moredisrespect we experienced at Levan's. The red flags started immediately. The staff was difficult to reach, and when we finally spoke, they rushed the conversation. When my fiancée politely asked them to slow down so we could take notes, the attitude shifted from impatient to openly condescending. The breaking point was when they actually laughed out loud at us while we were discussing our budget. Disrespecting a potential client is bad business; disrespectful behavior toward a groom or bride during a stressful planning process is unforgivable. A catering company should offer grace and hospitality, not mockery. I strongly advise other couples to take their business to a vendor that respects their clients regardless of the budget.
