I have used chefs for hire for years, for many different events and every expirence is amazing! The staff and food is always beyond my expectations. Both servers that worked my grandmothers repass were attentive and even helped my family in ways thar their jobs didnt call for. The decor was breathtaking, also the servers kept the buffet spotless and well stocked! I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of full service catering!!! The office manager is very helpful and patient. They accomadated our budget and were very compassionate with what my family and i were going through. Thank you chefs for hire for helping my family during thid tough time .
