Hire Antonio immediately!!!!! You won’t regret it
We loved his food and were excited to have him handle our wedding. Having attended many weddings and talked to many brides/grooms, we expected the food to be good on our wedding day but not as good as when we tasted considering he’d be cooking half in his kitchen and finishing at the venue and cooking for 150 people, not 4.
The food on our wedding day was FANTASTIC. One of our groomsman who loves shrimp said this was a top 3 shrimp he’s ever had. Another guest said they’ve never left a wedding thinking the food was memorable but that ours was truly delicious.
They also executed our drinks to perfection.
I could not recommend Antonio more. Hire him immediately!!!!
Amazing food and great customer service
