Rebecca was very communicative during the planning phase and had a wide range of delicious food options to select from that were able to accommodate a nut allergy and gluten intolerance. The biggest takeaway from our experience with Chef Rebecca (outside of an amazing meal with creative and unique dishes) was her attitude given the unforeseen circumstances - the power went out at our VRBO and then running water stopped working. Chef Rebecca kept a positive attitude and made the entire meal on the grill with one flashlight and a couple of candles. The food was outstanding and was of high caliber even with the nontraditional kitchen setup. Thank you again Chef Rebecca!!!

He made my wedding a party all night long just like I wanted. He was great at announcing different events throughout the night and stuck to the playlist we gave him. On top of that, his prices were amazing. Super affordable, which is why we originally went with him, since we were on a small budget. He has all of his own equipment from microphones, separate set up for ceremony location, and lights. Cannot recommend enough!

I inquired about reserving a lane because it was my husband's birthday the following day. Sabin answered the phone and told me they were having a tournament that Saturday but anytime after 3pm was available to reserve a lane. I asked if they needed any deposit. He said no, just my name and phone number is fine. He told me they have an arcade and a full kitchen and bar. We arrived at the alley on time and were welcomed by Joe. He confirmed our reservation, got us set up with shoes and asked if we needed anything else. He showed us where our lane was and wished us a good time. Joe came by several times during the 2 games asking if we needed anything it if he could get anything for us from the restaurant or bar. My husband needed help with his bowling ball. Done! We did order some sodas and fries. They were cooked to perfection! Not greasy or overcooked at all. The overall experience was fantastic. Even the other patrons were friendly and nice. It is clean and the equipment is well maintained. Everyone was friendly and respectful. No children running up and down the alley. Lots of families there. It is so refreshing to be able to enjoy yourself in a nice, wholesome environment. Thank you, Starlight Lanes. We will definitely be back.

Simply Plated crushed it on both the quantity and the quality for our wedding! Jeanna and Breanna were an absolute dream to work with! From our tasting to the day of, they were super responsive, answering all questions, helping us plan our menu, helping us make accommodations for dietary restrictions, working with our venue to provide licensing information for the bartender, and even being so kind as to adjust our count when a family emergency caused our numbers to shift one week before the wedding! They were incredibly kind and attentive, the servers and bartender were great, and they not only made a special arrangement of appetizers and a beautiful mini charcuterie board for our sweetheart table so we too could enjoy appetizers while we were doing photos but checked on us throughout the night to make sure we got enough and even boxed up all of the extra food into meals for us to enjoy later! They made it as stress free and enjoyable as possible and the food was absolutely delicious!!! We got the goat cheese bruschetta, stuffed mushrooms, and charcuterie board for cocktail hour, chicken Marsala and tri-tip for entrees, and the s'mores bar for dessert. Our guests also raved about the food! Thank you Simply Plated!!!

Fortunate to have been invited to a dinner where Chef Dustin cooked and served a five course meal,…read moreeach course paired with wine. Every single dish was fantastic and contained some unique element that took it over the top! Best part - the dinner was purchased at a silent auction so part of the proceeds went to Feed Them Fresh. Win/win. We started the evening with some bubbly and appetizers on the heated patio. The hostess had requested a paleo style and Chef Dustin delivered. Smoked salmon on gluten free toast points was one of my favorite appetizers! So flavorful and satisfying and I didn't miss the gluten. The bison meatballs sitting on a bed of tomato jam and shaved Parmesan was a huge hit. we requested a spoon to get every bit of that tomato jam! We then moved inside and started our dinner with a gorgeous baby green and spinach salad topped with pistachios and pomegranates, adding both crunch and a bit of tart sweetness. It was the perfect starter. For the main course we enjoyed beef tenderloin which was expertly cooked, the inside pink and the meat so tender. The side of seasoned cauliflower rice was buttery and flavorful. The cherries gave a nice bit of sweet tartness to compliment the rich meat. Wines were specifically chosen for each course and when done right, as it was, it enhanced both the food and the wine. We ended the evening with a very light panna cotta topped with a crumble that added texture and crunch. The perfect desert! It was such a treat to have a chef come into one of our homes and prepare such an elegant dinner. Every single dish was well thought out, there was a flow and cohesiveness to the menu. Each course was plated artistically with colorful edible flowers and herbs. Chef Dustin was a humble chef, letting us know about the dishes and ingredients, but always staying a bit in the background letting our conversation flow. He came early, cleaned up throughout the night, and left leaving us all fully satisfied and content. I have no hesitation hiring or recommending Biscuit & Pickles for catering events or private home dinners. Chef Dustin will work with you on ingredients, both those you want and those you want to avoid so your guests needs will be accommodated and no one will feel singled out. Five stars all the way!

Pretty approachable course, mostly flat. There were some challenging, narrow holes. The guidebook provided some hints on where to hit your drive or approach shots. It was a nice day. The clubhouse and dining area was a little outdated, but decent. They have a nice balcony seating area with a small firepit. The event and eating was held outside naturally, the staff working their tail off in the heat re-supplying the food table. Pro-shop staff friendly. There weren't scorecards provided on the carts, so had to get one from the shop. The cart we used was a little shabby, but I guess they had to recruit spares from another source, since it was a large tournament. Course was in nice shape, not decadent, but pretty good. Plenty of parking and restrooms clean and tidy in clubhouse and out on the course. Saw deer family while golfing. Watchout for scat or deer waste (whatever it's called).
