I hired Hey Chef to help with the stress of entertaining up to 36 guests over the Thanksgiving…read moreweek. They were scheduled to serve lunch for 21 and dinner for 36 on Wednesday 11/26, as well as 32 for dinner on Friday 11/28. Wednesday lunch was tasty, however the brioche slider buns per the menu were actually regular Safeway rolls, not brioche. 12 for $6.49! The dessert fell short of anything remotely high level. The brownies on skewers with fruit were dry and fell off the skewers. Wednesday dinner was a disaster. I ordered food for 36 people. We only had 32 including 6 kids, so we should have had plenty. We ran out of asparagas 2/3 of the way thru the line. the platter had enough for 12-15 people. The shrimp - one of the two main courses - ran out as well. I will try to attach a picture of the shrimp before anyone touched it! The photo (pre-serving) looks like there couldn't have been more than 40-50 shrimp. The chef told me he purchased 4-5/person. That would have been 180 shrimp! That was an out and out lie. I ate nothing, as we ran out of food. The owner did tell me afterwards that she looked at the grocery receipt, and he hadn't purchased enough. The dessert was not cake as planned. It appeared to be more of the same brownies, and they were not great. Friday dinner was okay. It was a taco bar. The chef put too much rice in the pot, and it boiled over onto our hardwood floor, rice and all. Then lots of wet garbage was put into the trash compactor, breaking it. The food was tasty and there was enough, but there was nothing high-end about it. Since the event, the owner admitted to me that they had never used the chef before. This was a huge mistake to send out an unknown for 3 large, very expensive meals. There was nothing "gourmet" about his preparation or presentation. Also, the owner admitted to me that the chef knew he was going to be short on dinner on Wednesday. He had a 3 hour break between the two services when he could have purchased more food. We believe that we were grossly overcharged for the chef's time. We were charged over 24 hours for his time alone on Wednesday. The food was supposed to be prepared in our home, but most of it was not. I was not presented with the grocery receipts, so I imagine those could have been inflated. With 21 for lunch, and 32 for both of the dinners, I paid $150/person/meal - over $13,000. And when you consider that one of the meals was a taco bar, the price was outrageous. I hired Hey Chef to ease my stress through the week-long holiday with a lot of guests. Instead, I was embarrassed by the shortcomings and more stressed. I expected the owner to handle these issues more professionally and issue a decent partial refund. I was offered a $300 credit towards a future booking! I am disappointed in Hey Chef for not taking responsibility for failing to come close to our expectations. I would certainly not use their services again, nor would I recommend them.

First off, Stew was super responsive and helpful in crafting the bar menu and coming up with our signature cocktails. Speaking of which, I had numerous friends come up to me throughout the night and specifically comment on how delicious the cocktails were. It's true -- at many weddings, I see people stop drinking the cocktails by dinnertime, but at our wedding, I noticed people still ordering the specialty drinks throughout the entire night. If you have a chance to work with them, do it!

We just had Mountain Magic Catering (MMC) cater our wedding at The Gatekeeper's Museum this past…read moreSunday. While we did have an issue arise, Peter and Martha quickly made it right again which is why I decided to give a 5 star review regardless of the oversight. Searching for a caterer for my wedding was a difficult feat because I have so many food allergies and intolerances that it makes it a little more difficult to cook for me. I really wanted to have a meal that I would be able to enjoy, and MMC was able to make that happen. So, if you have food allergies or concerns, I would 100% recommend them since they are so accommodating in this sense. The initial email I received from them explaining everything they do for a wedding was a little overbearing and confusing, but eventually I made sense of it all. Martha is a funny character and always made me smile after talking on the phone, mostly due to her very random tangents. They sent us a menu to choose options from, and there was a fair amount of different options to select. We were nervous about the fact that they don't offer tastings, but we did end up walking by another event of theirs before our wedding and the food smelled great so we were relieved. All of the food we had at the wedding was great! It wasn't your typical boring wedding food. Peter really knows what he is doing flavor- wise, and I was so happy that he was able to cook everything in a manner that I could still enjoy. We ended up getting our desserts catered by them too, we had lemon bars, chocolate dipped strawberries, and puff pastry with peach. All of these were a hit and ended up working out so that we didn't end up with a bunch of cake left over at the end of the night like people usually do. Martha made the lemon bars with white rice flour so I could have them and they were so yummy. In the end, everyone really enjoyed the food we had at our wedding. I do think it would be smart for them to add gratuity into their contract that way it is clear to couples what MMC is expecting. We were following the tipping guide from our wedding coordinator for tips, but they wanted more which caused a bit of an upset with my dad. A wedding is not the place to be discussing tip amounts, especially with the father of the bride. Regardless, things were made right and I appreciate that. I am glad we chose MMC. Choose them if you want fresh, delicious and allergy friendly food for your event.
