We had such an amazing, beautiful, and joyous wedding at Chef’s Dinner Table that we wanted to share our review and recommendation.
From top to bottom, our wedding, dinner & celeb...
ration was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment we met Ronnie, we knew it was going to be special.
Ronnie and his entire staff could not have been more gracious, attentive, and full of enthusiasm for our milestone event.
We have attended and had many events over the years, but, this one, was by far the most perfect from day one of meeting Ronnie and seeing the beautiful space through to the end of the evening festivities. Ronnie is a radiant bright light and clearly loves what he does. His energy and professionalism is clearly contagious to all of those around him. There was no request or detail that presented any pause or hesitation on anyone’s part. They even added many suggestions that made the occasion even more special.
And Jeannie, the event manager - where to even start. She could not have been more helpful, accommodating, and generous with her time and hands on assistance throughout. From the stunning flower arrangements throughout the space, to the endless supply of tea lights and tapered candles. The atmosphere was intimate and truly magical. Her management of the entire event coordinating all the moving parts seamlessly was outstanding. She made all of us feel totally taken care of, including all of the guests.
And then there’s Chef Julie! Everyone is still raving about everything…from the delicious burrata salad to the sumptuous chocolate mousse dessert (and all the courses in between). The presentation was gorgeous down to every last detail. And all of their servers were absolutely lovely anticipating everyone’s needs from the passed hors d’oeuvres to making sure everyone’s glass was full.
We can’t thank the entire staff at Chef’s Dinner Table enough for making this the most perfect, effortless, joyous occasion that we will cherish for years to come. We recommend Chef’s Dinner Table for any event that you want something far and beyond anything you’ve experienced in the past. They far exceeded all of our expectations.
