From the moment he arrived, Chef Jon felt like an old friend. He was warm, funny, and engaging, making the entire evening feel relaxed and special. The food was phenomenal--perfectly cooked steaks, incredible parmesan risotto, the best shrimp we've ever had, delicious broccoli, and a caesar salad with homemade dressing that even won over the anchovy skeptics! The lava cake was the perfect ending to an unforgettable meal. What made the evening even more meaningful was that Chef Jon recreated the very first meal Marcus made for Jennifer when they were dating, adding such a thoughtful, personal touch to their anniversary celebration. When dinner was over, the kitchen was spotless, and his generosity extended beyond the meal--he even offered us his own fishing poles when he learned our rental didn't have any. Chef Jon doesn't just prepare amazing food--he creates unforgettable experiences. If you're considering hiring him, don't hesitate. You'll get an exceptional meal and memories that will last a lifetime.

We placed a large corporate order. They arrived punctually, set everything up which included all of the serving pieces. After the party, they picked everything up promptly. The food was delicious, flavorful and plentiful! We ordered chicken with mushrooms, vegetarian lasagne and the pork. All three were a hit with the guests. The order with a side, salad and drinks. I received compliments all evening from the guests. I would highly recommend Dish & Design and will be ordering from them going forward including for my personal parties.

Dish & Design catered the food for us during our Family Reunion in Charleston. My husband had been…read morespeaking with Sarah, who was new to the company, since the beginning of January 2024. Sarah was extremely helpful in promptly providing the meal options and quotes for the weekend. The prices seemed reasonable and the menu options appealed to us. He took the information provided to him back to our family reunion committee, so we could vote on whether or not to proceed. The committee voted and it was decided to proceed with Dish & Design. We decided on the menus for both nights and signed the contracts. We thought everything was finalized after signing the contracts until we were notified that the menu prices had increased for 2024. Unfortunately, we were not initially provided this information at the time we received the quotes, menu options, and contracts. We reached out to Sarah, who needed to speak with her boss, Ana, about this issue. Ana spoke with my husband and stated we would need to sign new contracts due to the menu prices increasing. He provided this information to the chairperson of our committee and she reached out to Ana directly about this issue. Ana was extremely unprofessional and unwilling to honor the initial signed contracts. She really left us uneasy about this issue and extremely unsatisfied. She even went as far as to say, Sarah was new and inexperienced and that was the reason for the mistake. As the manager, she never took ownership nor accountability for the mistake and just played the blame game. After many discussions and much reluctance from Ana, she finally agreed to honor the Sunday meal contract; however, she did not honor the contract for Saturday's meal and stated we would have to sign a new contract and pay the increased prices for that particular meal. With limited time and resources, since we are not residents of Charleston, we opted to stick with Dish & Design. While, some of the guests thought the food was decent and the service during the event was great (special thanks to Christina), it still left a less than desirable interest to ever hire them again nor recommend them for catering services. Although, everything wasn't bad, Ana's attitude and lack of professionalism is the main reason I cannot recommend Dish & Design for catering services in the Charleston area and can only rate them with 3-stars.
