Wedding Rehearsal Dinner and Wedding Reception
Chef Michael was simply fantastic. He was referred to us by a friend and from the very first contact, Chef Michael was professional, personable and flexible. We really enjoyed the tasting experience to determine the menu. The tasting setting and atmosphere was great and we were treated like VIP's. Chef Michael completely handled both of our dinner events (rehearsal dinner and wedding reception) with class. He was flexible as we modified the schedule and attendee count leading up to the events and made mid-course adjustments as needed. The food was perfect and his price was right. I highly recommend Chef Michael for your event. He is a top notch Chef and a top notch gentleman! He will enhance your experience like he did for ours.Chef Michael was simply fantastic.

Great food and service
I have used Chef Michael's service for 2 events and have been very pleased. A celebration of life (125 people) and a wedding in my home (25 people). He is excellent from menu planning to food preparation for the day. Everything was delicious and fresh. Many compliments from my guests.
Both my events were unique. I request special items that were family favorites and multicultural. Chef Michael made everything on my list and had great ideas for additions to round out the menu.
Chef Michael was easy to work with and very flexible. He invited us to his kitchen for tastings for the first event. It was great to "test drive" the menu. The second event it was not necessary because I knew it would be delicious.
His employees were also very hardworking and friendly.

Perfect from tasting to last bite
From the first tasting, to the last bite. Chef Michael and team went to world’s end to make sure our wedding was perfect. My wife is a bit picky, me a bit flashy, we wanted an abundance of options at a reasonable price that tasted fresh and perfect… Chef Michael executed that vision amazingly.
I can’t even begin to describe how awesome their team was from finding somewhere to get my wife’s favorite ice cream, to endless iterations of the menu to make sure everything to the sides was perfect, the team worked to design and fully customize everything to our exact specification. Special shout out to Amber for being one of the most professional, responsive, and amazing organizers I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with.
Overall, Chef Michael may be one of the best choices we made with our March 2021 wedding. They went out of the way to tour the venue with us and come up with a unique game plan for our food being cooked on site and even left us the cutest picnic basket with treats for us to take home afterwards. Food was a big focus of us for our wedding and I couldn’t recommend anyone better than Chef Michael. We tried caterers from all over Houston and Austin big and small to find the perfect one and no one ever even came close to Chef Michael for quality, taste, and value.
I’m honestly going to need to book Chef Michael again in the future just to eat that great food again.

Great fare, attention to detail, and loyal to your event!
When we first met Chef Michael in Oct. 2019 to sample his food, we were looking for the best dining experience for our daughter's upcoming wedding in May. We chose him based on the quality of his meals. What we didn't know was several months later Covid-19 would enter the picture and we had to reschedule to Aug. 15. While some of our other vendors were dropping like flies during this chaos, Chef Micheal told us "I'll be there and I'll do what I agreed to do". It was a difficult time for everyone, including us, but you'd never know that by listening to Chef Michael. He was rock solid throughout the whole ordeal and delivered a wonderful meal and experience. I can't begin to tell you how much we value and appreciate his product and service!When we first met Chef Michael in Oct. 2019 to sample his food, we were looking for the best dining experience for our daughter's upcoming wedding in May.

I will never ever use anyone else for any catering I have to do. The whole staff just took over and went above and beyond. Food was amazing, staff is amazing. They literally calmed my soul.I will never ever use anyone else for any catering I have to do. The whole staff just took over and went above and beyond. Food was amazing, staff is amazing.

Catering by Chef Michael provided the food for my daughter's wedding on October 24, 2015. Their service was excellent and the quality, appearance and taste of the food was excellent. We chose parmesan crusted chicken, chopped beef steak with mushroom gravy, garlic mashed potatoes, grilled vegetables and garlic toast. Everyone loved the food. They were on time, set up professionally and the buffet line moved very quickly. They offered us a professional tasting experience, and were very accommodating. The only reason for four stars under flexibility was because it rained that day, well poured. Our plans had to be moved in doors and when we requested an earlier delivery/setup time, they indicated that it would be an additional fee. I thought that was a little inflexible considering this was a weather issue. Other than that, I would highly recommend them.Catering by Chef Michael provided the food for my daughter's wedding on October 24, 2015.
