“I recently got married at age 70. When searching for a caterer, my new husband and I knew exactly what we wanted for our mid- morning ceremony & reception. A delicious seated brunch buffet with options for various dietary needs was our top choice. I'm the bride and am vegan and gluten-free. The majority of our guests were not, but some had certain sensitivities. We also had a budget to work within.

When we met Erin from Catered by Design, we knew we had found the perfect caterer! Erin listened to our needs rather than offering us a package. She then wrote a proposal and waited for us to comment. When we had a menu that sounded right, she offered us a complimentary tasting. From the first bite, we knew that Catered by Design was the perfect choice.

Erin had worked with our Venue many times and her team could help with everything from set up to tear down on our Big Day.

Erin showed up during set up to make sure everything was going according to plan. She was professional, compassionate and easy to communicate with during our entire planning process.

Our wedding was magical and joyous. Everything went perfectly!
Our guests are still talking about how delicious the food was and how much they enjoyed the entire day!

I highly recommend Catered by Design for your special event!“

“Very tasty, very good!“

“Hats off to Michelle and her entire group for the beautiful rehearsal dinner she helped me put together a few weeks ago. Besides her precise attention to detail, she put together the absolute best team to serve our guests.“

“We almost didn't go to their tasting buy boy are we glad we did. We went to two other caterers before our scheduled tasting with Hearty Boys and figured they would each be good, but for some reason we went to Hearty Boys and were blown away! The food is such a step up from any other wedding caterer we tried. The chef came out with each course to walk us through what everything was and how the flavors worked together. Their presentation was also way better than the other options we saw and took our critiques to heart to make the meal ours. Neither of us are tomato fans so even though the salads came with tomatoes ours didn't, my wife has a garlic sensitivity so her meal was able to be made with other flavors to avoid and issues. All of the food on the night of was amazing and they had a server dedicated just to me and my wife so we never were without a drink and appetizers were always on their way to us as we mingled with guests. It's also obvious that Derek and their entire team are passionate about your night going exactly how you want it to. We cannot recommend them enough.“

“After trying Hortiport for a couple of weeks I can say that, compared to the other grocery delivery services, Hortiport eliminates the untrained ‘middle man’. This guarantees your box of goodness will be the freshest and most eye-pleasing, as if you hand selected them yourself! I also appreciated the well curated selection of foodie items from local vendors. (One of whom, coincidentally, is based just 2 blocks from my home!) Helping local farmers and small producers is a ‘feel good’ for me and don’t we all need more of that these days?!“

“I thank you Kasia pierogi for your donation today to our benefit Stay with Ukraine. We sold all pierogies, and people loved them. My family always buys your pierogi, and we wish you have your business to blossom.“

“I had the pleasure of experiencing Catering Out The Box after winning their service as an auction item at the Chicago Scholars Gala last fall and let me just say… this was one of the best auction wins I’ve actually used. From the start, working with the owners was seamless. We collaborated to create a progressive menu that felt completely tailored to our evening. What I appreciated most was the flexibility. There were plenty of options to choose from, and they were open to curating beyond the standard menu to bring our vision to life. The execution was next level. Their team arrived fully prepared with everything needed. Setup, prep work, bar service, cocktails, table presentation, and serving utensils… all handled. Truly a turnkey experience. All we had to provide was the alcohol and kitchen space. A special shoutout to Sergio, our server, and Chef Berta. The food was fresh, light, and the ingredients were perfectly balanced. And I have to say… having our own branzino each was such a standout detail. Anthony, the owner, personally checked in at both the beginning and end of the evening to ensure everything from setup to breakdown was flawless. The kitchen was left spotless, which says a lot about their professionalism and attention to detail. Highly recommend. We will absolutely be using them again. What a beautiful way to kick off our 3-year anniversary 🥂 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“We had a party with 75 ppl. catering was delivered on time, hot, fresh, and packaged expertly. Everyone raved about the food! Fried Chicken, meatballs, and the jello were the favs. thank you!“

“Was driving past and saw a Jamaican flag in the window so I turned around. Thank God I did the food is so good ya'll I had the lamb, spinach and mashed potatoes. I'm still outside the restaurant in my car posting this cause the food is gone already!! An amazing Shout out to the owner miss tanya and her staff a wealth of knowledge a true blessing. Also thank you to Mario from Goebbarts farms for serenading me with live music while I waited!!“

“I've had many meals pizza,egg rolls shrimp ect. All fantastic, it just that thiers nobody to greet you is the only issue..
Just an idea maybe someone should come out and see if it customers every 10-15 minutes coming to get food...“

“We have now catered from Spiced two times for large events of around 75 guests. Each time the experience was very professional and the food was of high quality and great taste. Definitely recommend them for any size Indian catering in the North suburbs.“

“Excellent food and ambiance, The brick chicken is my favorite. Our friends who have lived throughout the country said the pork chop is the best they ever had“

“Blue Plate catered our wedding and did an EXCEPTIONAL job. People cannot stop talking about the food at our wedding. It was out of this world! We worked directly with Alexis Kniaz who is absolutely tremendous and so gifted at what she does. We look forward to working with Alexis and the team at Blue Plate for future events!“

“These are fantastic! I'm always so excited when they're at a market I'm near. I buy extra as they heat up very well so don't hesitate to buy more. The pastry is perfect, the fillings divine.“

“Eat Fine is a special place. Not only is their menu extensive and their food incredible, they really care about their community, the service is amazing and they always do whatever they can to help you out. But most importantly, their food is top notch. There isn't anywhere I know of that makes such delicious, fresh tasting Thai food, and I'm so lucky to have it in my neighborhood. You really owe it to yourself to visit.“

“Erin and the rest of the team were amazing! We unfortunately had to reschedule our wedding due to the pandemic and Erin stuck with us every step of the way during one of the most difficult periods of our lives and always went out of her way to help us. And let's not forget the food... all of the the selections were 🔥🔥. Hire The Caterist and ask for Erin!“

“If I could give more stars, I would. Over the last couple years I have used many food delivery services, Hello Fresh, Freshly, Cook Unity, and now Wholsesome 360. The difference, QUALITY!!! Fresh ingredients, no fillers, high quality oils and fats, nice portions. Not that the other services are bad, but I compare them to frozen entrees at the grocery store, but taste a bit better. My Wholesome 360 entrees were restaurant quality, but with farm to table fresh ingredients-I could literally taste each of the food elements. If you are considering a food delivery service, I recommend paying the extra dollar per meal to get local fresh meals that are good for you, that heal you.“

“I hosted a Thai cooking class with a dozen of my clients. Naveen was a tremendous host and teacher. The group had a blast. I'd encourage you to take part in one of his classes or schedule a fantastic custom event for your friends, colleagues or clients. Great team-building event!“

“Awesome food and services. Talented team, highly recommended!“

“Zelda’s catered my daughters reception. Everything was great! Food, drinks,staff were wonderful! HIGHLY recommend!!“

“Very professional and the food is amazing“

“Phenomenal food, that’s arguably the best in the north shore.“

“Gpay didn't work and I had no physical card. After trying the Gpay several times, I gave up. The manager asked for the drink I was drinking back, lol. I got in the car, saw my wallet in the seat and decided not to go back in. I drove out of my way to try this food, but this experience with being asked for the drink back was shocking. #theapartmentlady“

“We have had wonderful experiences here. We have had delivery and they catered a party for us. We had a lox platter, pasta salad and an assorted sandwich tray. I typically do not eat lox anywhere other than buying from the fish monger but their nova lox is fantastic. I’ve had it three times now and it’s been excellent every time. They have fantastic corned beef and turkey.“

“If I could give Tri-Star Catering more than 5 stars, I absolutely would. They provided catering for our two-day conference in Chicago, and from start to finish, the experience was nothing short of exceptional. Philip, my main point of contact, set the tone early with an incredibly thoughtful and detailed intake process. It felt less like a transaction and more like a true partnership. He took the time to understand exactly what I wanted, and then elevated it beyond my expectations. The range of menu options was honestly mind-blowing. We had a pretty diverse group with a lot of dietary needs, and somehow everyone was happy—which is not easy. No one felt like an afterthought. The attention to detail was impeccable. From beautifully designed menu cards to a perfectly executed cocktail station at dinner, every element was curated with care. Nothing was overlooked. And I have to highlight Gabe—because WOW. Having him onsite was a game changer. He stayed on top of everything: refilling food and drinks, maintaining the space, and making sure guests were taken care of without ever being intrusive. Now let’s talk about the food. I love food—and I can be a tough critic—and they gave me absolutely nothing to complain about. Every dish was flavorful, fresh, and beautifully presented. The team was punctual, professional, and engaging. Setup and breakdown were seamless, and their communication throughout the entire process was consistent and clear. My only “complaint”? I wish they were based closer to me so I could hire them for everything. If you’re looking for a caterer in Chicago, stop searching. This is your company. Philip and his team take real pride in their work—and it shows in every detail.“

“Catering is such a huge part of your wedding, and it's the part that seemed so overwhelming and intimidating to me. Once we received the list of our preferred vendors and began reaching out to them, Sue from Butter and Vine immediately stood out to us. She was warm, friendly, informative, and hilarious. She was flexible and worked with us through our COVID-induced postponement and changes up until the day before our wedding (seriously!). And the best part--the food was INCREDIBLE. The meals were delicious, creative, accessible, fresh, and plentiful. Appetizers were unique and so tasty--our guests were very fond of the mini Patron bottles of margaritas! Months after our wedding, we still receive compliments that Butter and Vine provided the "best wedding food ever" and "didn't even taste like 'wedding food!'" We are so happy we worked with Sue and her team at Butter and Vine and highly recommend them!“

“We had a great experience working with Biagio for our daughter’s quinceañera. Specially with Blanca she is dedicated, honest and always willing to go the extra mile for us. The appetizers, diner, deserts, gelato cart, hot dog cart, delicious! We had all great reviews from our guests. We were able to have an outside organizer decorate the hall for us and they worked very well together which made it possible for us to relax and enjoy the process. All of the vendors were able to communicate effectively with Blanca which helped to make the night very special for our daughter. Unforgettable memories were made that night and we have nothing but gratitude with Blanca and her team at the Biagio. 👏🏼“

“Nice ice cream shop and a bonus as they have entertainment“

“Jewell was fantastic to work with. The food and people we worked with were excellent. We booked before tasting the food as they were the exclusive caterer for our venue so we were a bit nervous but we can’t imagine a better experience than we had. Everyone was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. Our guests raved about both the food and the service staff. The servers and bartenders were incredibly helpful, friendly, and professional. We would highly recommend them to anyone planning a wedding or other event.“

“the best tacos you will find in the area!!!!!!!!!!!“

“Yes, of course I recommend this catering company. The food that I wouldn't touch anywhere else smells so good that I have to taste for myself! When I do it doesn't disappoint!“

“Great food as always! We have used them for St Patrick’s Day for years and also used them for holidays due shutdown.“

“Attended a wedding at Manzo's last night and the food was absolutely delicious, wait staff was fabulous and the venue was beautiful. Highly recommend!!“

“I ordered a St Patty’s day lunch for my office. I have experienced J and L cuisine many times, including my Son and Daughter in Laws rehearsal dinner. Their menu’s are so unique and can be personalized to every occasion. Our Irish lunch today drew rave reviews from my team. If you don’t know J and L you need to. Premiere catering company in Chicago 🍀“

“The best tacos al pastor are at this place. The staff is incredibly friendly, and the prices are unbeatable. You must try their tacos!“

“I just had a dish delivered to me to try out. Wow! This is amazing! Delivered to my home. The staff is so friendly and so informative. Delicious healthy choice Veggie Almondine was the best I have ever had. So convenient too. I can’t wait to try their other dishes. New Year, New Resolutions, healthy choices. Thank you Parkside Meal Prep!!!“

“Once again TriCafe does not disappoint. Their food is amazing, all of it from the appetizers to the desserts. American Airlines Cargo have used them everytime for our Cargo Cup celebrations. Thank you again Bob and team for making our celebrations a huge success!“

“Solid food every time! Had great risotto last night, their pastas are always good & great cocktails. Take home family meals are delicious and a lot of food for the money. Recommend!“

“Honest Foods is a fantastic, well-priced catering company!

I ordered catering for 30 friends and family members celebrating my daughter’s baptism. Their menu is extensive; I chose ciabatta sandwiches, pasta salad, and a green salad. Everything was absolutely delicious. In fact, I had several family members tell me “this is the best salad I’ve ever had.”

Tad, the owner, is a wonderful person too— very easy to work with. He was nice enough to send one of his staff to my house to drop off serving utensils, as I had forgot them during pick up.

Will definitely use Honest Foods again!“

“Great Ribs and Brisket, the slaw is Slawtasic, ask for extra pickles 😋“
