Everything from introducing herself, to getting our menu ready, to the actual dinner day from start to finish was exceptional service!!! She made us feel so special and took her time catering to us. We could barely hold a conversation during dinner because her food was so good! We will definitely be using get again for everything!!

Donna was professional, pleasant and energetic. We loved all the dishes she cooked! Her lamb and salmon were a big hit even with some guests who were not expected to venture outside of traditional chicken/beef dishes! She came a couple of hours early to set everything up to our satisfaction and made sure everything was clean before she left. Looking forward to hiring her team again for our next catered party. I highly recommend Donna without any reservations!

Details: Birthday or anniversary party • Cocktail hour or hors d'oeuvres • French • Small bites • Yes, full service • Outdoor venue • Yes, full kitchen • Fewer than 20 guests • Plates, utensils and glasses • Cloth napkins • Serving and warming equipment • Table décor • Standard (basic ingredients)

My wife and I absolutely love Donna and her team. We weren’t sure where to start having never booked a chef before, but knew that Donna was the one after our first conversation. We absolutely adored her willingness to please, and her incomparable quality of food. Our wedding dinner was a gift from us to our friends, 14 total, and Donna just did not miss a beat. Everything was absolutely delicious! I’d recommend ‘Simple Delights’ a dozen times over - you’d be pleased to have her!

Details: Special occasion (birthday, anniversary, etc.) • 11 - 20 guests • Dinner • Standard (basic ingredients) • American - casual • Mexican / Latin American • Italian • Barbecue • Vegetarian or vegan • Dairy intolerant • Meal prepared onsite • Only once • My home, venue, etc.

I wanted to have a special dinner for my girlfriend. I had everything mapped out nicely and then my chef cancelled. I found this app and posted my project. Simple Delights contacted me and was able to go along with what I had planned. I would recommend her to anyone and plan to use her in for future events.

This review is coming in a little late; however, I can’t say enough good about Simple Delights. From beginning to end, everything was fabulous! They were so easy to work with and so accommodating to any and all allergy concerns. The food was fantastic and they were fantastic. Fun, sweet and made my guests feel special and so helpful. I would recommend them highly!!!! I would give 20 stars if I could!
