“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.

“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?!“

“My first time here was a month ago having dinner in the steakhouse! If I could give 10 stars for the food, servers and atmosphere I would have. Last night we returned to dine in the tavern, food was absolutely delicious, Mariah our server greeted us with a friendly warm smile that she never lost each time she came to our table. We will be back very soon to sit on the balcony this time ! CANT WAIT!!!!!!!!!“
