We have been here for breakfast 2 weekends in a row. The food is amazing and the service is great! Huge portions- plenty to take home. This has definitely become a new favorite spot for us!

What kind of meat was that Pattymelt? Fair price, big "burger" but I had to wonder what was in it. Was it fake meat or cereal.

Stopped here on my way to the airport and was extremely surprised on the taste of the food. The service was quick, nice, and made you feel like you were at home.

Yo Chef catered our wedding of 180 people and it was EXCELLENT. Truly 10/10, food was phenomenal. As someone that’s attended a lot of weddings and has experienced subpar food, my husband and I were blown away and forever grateful. Thank you for making our wedding so memorable, we received so many compliments on the amazing food!

When my husband and I booked the pizza cart with Yo Chef's Catering for our wedding, we were so excited! Communication ahead of our wedding was professional and timely. We had asked very specific questions to Andrea in an effort to ensure that our guests would all be happy, eat in a timely manner, and have plenty to eat. She answered all of our questions and we were thrilled with the responses. However, after talking to many of our guests after the wedding we noticed some issues that were not handled the way we had previously discussed in our email conversations. We were told that it was highly encouraged to have two double sided buffet tables, so that is what we had planned and what was set up by our venue. This included using an extra two table cloths through the caterer. We were also told that the pizza would continue being cooked until every guest was done getting their share - seconds and beyond if wanted - and to expect each guest to get the equivalent of at least one pizza for themselves. The second buffet table was removed without our knowledge by the serving staff, despite paying for the linens and being told by Andrea that it was necessary to keep the lines going smoothly. The one buffet table that was left was single sided and took forever to get our guests through. Guests were only able to take a few pieces of pizza and were unable to get seconds as the serving staff began tearing down as our last table was getting their first plate. I reached out to the staff after our wedding to discuss these issues and did not receive a response. I reached out two more times, the last time giving them a timeframe to respond in before I got our venue involved (they are on a preferred catering list with our venue). I got a prompt response of the resolution they were willing to make. However, it has been several weeks and I have not received any follow up or follow through on this decision. The communication post-wedding has been subpar at best. I would not recommend this company for a large wedding, which is quite a bummer because the pizza and appetizers were a hit for our guests that were able to eat within a timely manner.

We used Yochef for our wedding last month at Ivy House! The food was amazing. Everyone raved about the spinach dip and meatballs for cocktail hour. Then about the cherry sauce on the chicken and how big the slices of salmon were for dinner, plus the mashed potatoes! Andrea was great to work with, she was so kind and would email back quickly. Thank you Yochef for being such an amazing and important vendor for our big day!!

Used for my wedding. Food was bland and not worth the money. Lack of communication was also an issue.

Yo Chef catered my daughter's wedding at Port 393 in Holland, it was a plated meal with either chicken or beef tenderloin as the options. Everyone raved about the food and also the generous portion size. The staff was friendly, did a wonderful job taking care of our guests and the planning and communication was excellent by Andrea and the team prior to the wedding. I would highly recommend.

We used Yo Chef Catering for our wedding and I can’t tell you how satisfied we were! Andrea and Chef Joseff were incredible. Their communication throughout the whole process was seamless and easy and they really made sure our special day was going to be perfect. Chef Joseff allowed me to tweak the menu to how we wanted and exceeded our expectations. Everyone at our wedding was super impressed from the appetizers to the main meal to the late night snacks! The service was amazing and the whole process was just perfect. Highly recommend using Yo Chef! Especially for the price!

My daughter had her wedding at the GR art museum and Yo Chef catered the event. We wanted to have fun food so we chose a bbq menu and it was delicious. Everyone raved about the brisket. I would tell anyone to get the charcuterie board for cocktail hour. It was beautiful. The napkins were folded perfectly. I would recommend Yo Chef to anyone.
