We've been coming here as a family for a while, so trust me when I say the food is ALWAYS amazing--but when they catered my son's high school graduation party?? They did NOT come to play. The food? Soul-healing, plate-licking... They handled everything flawlessly, and the setup matched the restaurant's elegant vibe . It felt upscale, warm, and just... special. Our guests are STILL texting about the food and asking, "Wait... where was that from again?" So yes, it's a hidden gem ... but honestly, they deserve all the shine! Thank you!

The Saturday morning crowd was not out yet but soon would show up. We had a great table, middle of the restaurant and Caleb helped us out. He was very nice and took care of us. Ivory also came out and greeted us. We chatted a bit about how we liked the food. We got boudin balls with fries. The fries were amazing, just regular fries. The boudin balls needed a little work but Ivory was very receptive to feedback. Mimosas were good too. I had the cranberry, it came in a carafe. We finished 2 of them between the 3 of us throughout our meal. I ordered the shrimp and grits. Grits were excellent, shrimp was a little salty but if I mixed with the grits, worked out well. We had the endless catfish and amazed that it just kept coming. Also ordered a special priced wing and waffle dish that was 2 wings and a waffle, a little snack. By time we left, all tables were full. Make reservations is my best suggestion. I will go back. I enjoyed the food.

Throughout the planning process, Lionel was always quick in responding to questions and helpful in guiding me to a rental company for a beautiful dinner table set up of fine china, crystal glasses and sterling silverware. His menu options were perfect for my husband who can be a very picky eater. My husband and I are big foodies and have been to most of the top restaurants in Houston, Lionel's cooking was as good if not better than the best in town. Every course was absolutely delicious! The mussels were perfectly cooked, the caprese salad couldn't have been any better and everyone's filets were cooked spot on. He made a carrot purée that we have been talking about for days! On top of the amazing food, Lionel himself was as personable and friendly as he could be in addition to being extremely knowledgeable about the food he was serving. Each course came with an explanation of the ingredients and where they were from. I hope to have Lionel back in my home again soon and will be recommending him to everyone I know in the Houston area. I've only had one other private dining party and Lionel's food was wayyyy better than that. Thank you, Lionel!

I went on the website and decided to take the Jamaican themed class. It was priced at $180 per couple. The menu for the night was black bean soup, rice and peas, jerk chicken and shrimp, and rum cake. They already had everything prepped for us. The chef told us exactly how to make each dish. Everything we had was bursting with flavor. The class was so much fun! The chef even threw in some cooking education and he made us laugh while doing it. I highly recommend this class to everyone! It's easy for even a novice cook. They even had a little music going on. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and the service provided. It was definitely a vibe and a fun date night. I would love to go back for the other classes. Also it's BYOB!

Culinary Character: A Flavorful Adventure with Deja…read more I recently had the pleasure of experiencing Culinary Character, helmed by the talented Deja, for my little brother's bachelor party. From the very beginning, it was clear that this was going to be more than just a catering service; it was a culinary journey. Deja, with over 5 years of professional experience, brings a unique blend of gourmet fusion food that is not only inspired by various cultures but is also executed with simplicity and attractiveness. Before the event, we had a detailed discussion about our preferences, and I was impressed by the custom-made menu options that were tailored to accommodate the needs of our gathering. The service provided by Deja and her team was top-notch. They arrived at our AirBnB rental fully equipped with groceries and an infectiously positive attitude. The entire process, from meal preparation to serving, was handled with utmost professionalism and skill. Each meal - breakfast, lunch, dinner, and even dessert - was a masterpiece. The dishes were packed with flavor, and the portions were generously sized. Deja's cooking ensures that you're not just satisfied, but pleasantly full. A fun fact indeed - you won't be left hungry after Deja's culinary creations! Post-meal, the team's efficiency continued to shine. They cleaned up impeccably and even took care of the trash, leaving our space as tidy as they found it. Their friendly demeanor and great attitudes made our experience, especially in our post-party hangover state, extremely pleasant and enjoyable. If you're on the lookout for exceptional culinary services, I can't recommend Deja and Culinary Character enough. It's not just about the food; it's about the experience, the flavors, and the memories you create. Book with Deja, and you're in for a treat that goes beyond the plate!
