Chef Ron was wonderful to work with. We even had to change the dates once! We had wonderful appetizers, homemade chips, followed by a great meal! The beef tenderloin melted in your mouth and chicken was so tender and delicious. The fresh parker house rolls were heavenly! The presentation was also very good. Chef Ron and his staff pay attention to small details like a bird made out of vegetables! So beautiful! Would definitely recommend!

I had the pleasure of working with Chef Ron and his team while coordinating the food for a banquet of 150. Chef Ron was easy to work with, responded promptly to phone calls, texts and emails. The food was abundant in quantity, hot and tasted wonderful! Please consider Chef Ron and team for your next catered event!

I Hosted an event at Bonita Spings Estero Elks Lodge 2753 for 443 in attendance. The service was excellent the food was plentiful. The Hors D' Oeurves abs the dessert were fantastic and would recommend this Caterer. We'll gave them again. Ron was great to work with

I highly recommend Bernwood Catering Company. I am fairly new to Naples and this is the first time I have needed a caterer here, and Chef Ron came to my rescue. I found him online and liked the reviews. I count myself extremely lucky that he was willing to fit me into his busy weekend. Chef Ron is delightful and very accommodating. He was always easily reached and very responsive to my needs. He had great suggestions regarding the menu, and honestly everyone who attended raved about the food and the presentation.Thank you Chef Ron! The dinner party for 20 was a huge success!

I couldn't recommend this catering company more. Wonderful service and excellent food. They arrived promptly and got everything set up in time for our 50+ guests. The food was delicious, and many compliments were given to the chef. Thank you to the entire staff for making our event special and a breeze.

Chef Ron and his staff created an excellent event for my daughters rehearsal party. The food was outstanding and Chef Ron and his staff were a pleasure to work with. I had confidence that he would do a great job from our first conversation and he didn’t disappoint. I would hire him for any event!

We just completed our second event with Bernwood Catering. They’ve been amazing to work with. The food is always delicious! And it’s so well presented. Chef Ron and his staff are first rate event planners. We highly recommend them!!!

We were initially excited to have Ron cater our son and daughter in-law’s wedding. They booked him months in advance. But the closer it got, the more stressful it became to work with him. They needed a coordinator to make sure the day went smoothly. All the other vendors enjoyed working with her and complimented her organization. Ron refused to talk with her and hung up on her multiple times. Yet she had all the details he needed from the HOA rules, etc. This led to the night before the wedding Ron yelling at the bride on the phone (we heard it all and were shocked). He even said to her “you picked quite the venue!” This venue was chosen 13 months prior, right after Hurricane Ian, when there weren’t a lot of choices, but it was a lovely venue. It was so inappropriate to make a bride cry on the phone the night before her wedding. Unprofessional! He truly owes her an apology!!The day of the wedding the food tasted good. The staff and service left a lot to be desired. One of the ladies on staff directed us, the parents of the groom, to the salad and appetizer table, but it was actually the children’s food table. Mind you, it wasn’t even her job to do that, that was the DJs job. She had already called other tables to do so sending them the other direction to the correct table, like friends tables, so we were far back in the line by then. It was so annoying. Just unacceptable service. I wondered if she had ever served at a wedding before to know proper protocol.The bartenders didn’t know how to pour drinks. Also, they were so strong that we had dozens complaining how strong they were (an unusual complaint). The bartenders were wearing shorts for a fairly formal indoor reception. Then at the food line, other staff couldn’t tell us which way the line began. Poor communication all around. In my opinion Ron may work best when he doesn’t need to coordinate with other vendors, as that was a disaster for our event. He seems to have a lot of experience, but he couldn’t handle the exceptions at this venue with about 100 guests without making quite a problem the day before the wedding. So as a result, we can’t recommend Bernwood catering for weddings of 100 or more. I wouldn’t wish what he did to my daughter-in-law on any bride. And she is simply the sweetest girl.
Working with Ron at Bernwood catering was a great experience. He helped us develop a menu for our event and stay within our budget. The food was delicious and the presentation was beautiful!

Chef Ron and the Bernwood team executed another successful event at the Off The Wall event at the Center For Arts Bonita Springs. All guests were overly satisfied with the culinary fare. It was presented artistically and service was spot on. Chef Ron is the best in the area and I highly recommend him for your next event no matter what the size.

We have had Ron owner of Bernwood Catering for two Christmas parties, over 60 people in attendance, food was wonderful, staff were equally as good and friendly to our guest. Ron delivered everything we wanted, we have booked him for 2024. Do I need to say more about him this staff than this. ?????
