“Gayle at What's Cookin catered my mother-in-law's 80th birthday party, and the food—especially the variety of sandwich wraps—was both delicious and beautifully presented. Gayle was incredibly responsive and even added a personal touch to the display when she learned my mother was a lifelong equestrian. Her helpful and friendly service made the event special, and I highly recommend What’s Cookin for any occasion.“

I had a very tasty onion soup, a perfectly prepared prime rib w high end fries (could have been a huge potato), a Yorkshire pudding bread, and a dark dark chocolate cake dessert w real whipped cream. Relaxing and satisfying, has become a favorite.“

“For my first time going to The Wharf, it did not disappoint at all. The ambience of the place is beautiful, so I could only imagine how wonderful it would be during the summer. Our waitress was very helpful and attentive when it came to getting orders in, and honestly couldn't have been any better. My girlfriend and I decided to split the crab cakes first, then she got the sea scallops and I got the short rib. Honestly, all three of these entrees delivered on all fronts, whether that was taste or presentation. What was the cherry on top for such a grand and delightful experience was the dessert we ordered, which was their pumpkin cheesecake. The fact that it was shaped like an actual pumpkin made my jaw drop but in the best way. If you want to go somewhere elegant and fancy, this might be the place to go to.“

“We have been enjoying Chow for years and everything we have ever had from them has been delicious but yesterday… Father’s Day, they went above and beyond! They were packed and after waiting for a while for my take out order (understandable for a busy night) they confessed and profusely apologized because in the rush of the busy evening one of my pizzas had been dropped. Without missing a beat they promised my pizzas would be remade and delivered to my house…. Half hour away!!! That is stellar customer service!!! So, amazing food AND wonderful customer service, what more could anyone want?!“
