Great Lakes chef catering was a wonderful experience. Both chefs came right on time and made an unforgettable meal. They were professional and very warm and kind. Everything was portioned correctly and was worth the price. I would recommend them to anybody.

We thoroughly enjoyed our brunch prepared by Chef Tamara. She prepared creatively delicious vegan dishes! The watermelon gazpacho was my absolutely favorite dishes!

We recently hired Chef Tamara and her team to cater a birthday party for 65 guests, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. From start to finish, the entire team was exceptionally professional, organized, and attentive to every detail. Chef Tamara created a delicious salad and taco bar featuring a variety of protein options that catered to all ages and dietary preferences. The food was a huge hit with both adults and kids — everyone raved about it! Beyond the outstanding food, the team went above and beyond to ensure our event was a complete success. They handled everything with ease and left the venue spotless, taking care of cleanup thoroughly and efficiently. Their dedication and service truly allowed us to relax and enjoy the celebration. I highly recommend Chef Tamara and her team for any event — they are reliable, talented, and a pleasure to work with. We will definitely be using their services again in the future!

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 36 - 50 guests • Lunch • Standard (basic ingredients) • Dessert • Cold beverages (non-alcoholic) • American - casual • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.
