We were ver fortunate to find Andrej and his team to cater our daughter's home wedding. He was very patient and accommodating to our specific requests. The food was absolutely perfect from start to finish. The presentation was beautiful and the dinner was better than any restaurant. Our guests were blown away. Next time we need a caterer, Andrej will be the first and only call I make! Thank you.

We’re so happy we found Andrej! Due to COVID, I shifted my wedding plans at the last minute and he was able to cook us such a special, memorable wedding dinner. He was easy to work with, made a delicious meal (printed, personalized menu included!), could add in 2 guests at the literal last minute and left our kitchen spotless. He even wrapped the top tier of my wedding cake for me, which I definitely appreciated. He truly made our downsized wedding reception one to remember!

Andrej and his team catered our micro wedding on Cape Cod in August 2020. The food, drink, and service exceeded our expectations! We met with Andrej two months prior to the event and finalized the menu. There were so many amazing menu options to choose from and Andrej was able to adjust based on allergies and aversions within our small group. My husband really loves brownie sundaes, and Andrej was willing to make that happen, even though it was outside of his normal menu options. We were particularly impressed with how knowledgable Andrej was with COVID-19 safe options for serving food - he was very ahead of the curve in this regard!
The day of the wedding, Andre and his team were incredibly professional. They arrived on time and got to work in the kitchen. The appetizers were amazing, including a raw bar. The bartender was very friendly and responsive and able to make the signature cocktail and a range of other drinks. The meal itself was amazing - so, so delicious! We had beef tenderloin and swordfish as our two meal options, and started with a wonderful, fresh, seasonal salad and warm bread and butter. The dishes were truly incredible and everyone loved their meal!
The service from Andrej and his staff was top notch - from start to finish, including leaving the kitchen spotless and making sure rental dinnerware was ready to return.
We would highly recommend Andrej for any private dining event, and certainly feel he is well equipped to meet the changing needs of couples and hosts during the pandemic and beyond.

I was looking for something very specific for my small Cape Cod wedding. My husband is from Russia and was hoping to incorporate some Eastern European food into our menu. I felt like I hit the jackpot when I found Andrej. Not only was he able to meet our needs for Eastern European food, but his local dishes were also OUTSTANDING. He was responsive, professional, and a joy to work with, helping me throughout the planning process. Our wedding was a huge success and everyone raved about the food. I would recommend Cape Cod Private Dinners to anyone having an intimate or even larger event on the Cape. Thank you Andrej!!!

Andrej and his team did our Backyard micro wedding after our big celebration had to be postponed. The food was amazing and his team looked after us so well. We ended up with most people having the surf and turf, and I can say it was delicious. Each of the appetizers was great, and the arugula salad was decadent with the truffle oil dressing. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect dinner.

My husband and I used Andrej and his team to cater our small COVID micro-wedding at my parents house on Cape Cod this past June and I can not praise them enough! If you are a bride looking to cater an upscale, intimate, delicious yet affordable wedding or COVID elopement on Cape Cod, look no further than Andrej and his team! They made a somewhat bitter-sweet situation into the best night of our lives. Andrej helped us plan and set up a beautiful intimate dinner with our loved ones in just 3 short weeks - he made our sudden change in wedding plans due to COVID feel like it had been our plan all along. The service was amazing and the food was beyond delicious (every guest is still raving about his dishes). Highly recommend!

Chefs Andrej and Monika helped to transform our "corona" wedding into what we were worried would be bleak affair to a flawless and breathtaking event. The food was spectacular and beautifully prepared. Andrej and Monika were extremely flexible to make all of our visions come true in just a quick time with pleasure and with grace, and beautiful presentation. Not only were we so relieved to have found gourmet home chefs so that our immediate families did not have to cook and clean at our intimate ceremony, but we felt completely safe and trusted in the cleanly and professional manor of Andrej and Monika who went above and beyond to adhere their standard professional cleanliness guidelines in addition to added measures against the coronavirus. All in all their wonderful food and attitudes made them a pleasure to work with and was a fantastic element of our beautiful day. We enjoyed them so much that we have hired them back for private dinners! We highly recommend chefs Andrej and Monika.

We had to pull together a last minute smaller “Covid” wedding and we were lucky enough to find Andrej and his team. He really bailed us out of a tough situation.
The food was unbelievable. Everyone was raving about how tasty everything was. The service was great. We went with passed appetizers which were all delicious.
They left the kitchen spotless and they washed all the rented dishes / glasses and put them back into the racks for the rental company.
Super easy! Would highly recommend for your wedding.

Andrej and his private dinner company go above and beyond with service, taste, and responsiveness. The food is out of this world - some of the most delicious high end food we have ever experienced! He was very flexible and willing to accommodate us on such short notice, customized our menu, and even provided cute menu cards for our table settings! He and his servers brought top notch service from start to finish, and cleaned up so well afterwards it was like they were never there. HIGHLY recommend. We will be talking about our wedding for years to come and their food and service are a highlight of that conversation. Thank you again!!

Andrej responded immediately and put together a menu that was exactly what we wanted. We had many changes occur at the last minute due to COVID-19 restrictions and he stayed very positive and helped us navigate a new plan. It was great to have his experience and professionalism working with us. You will not be disappointed.
