My husband and I had a wonderful experience working with My Chef Catering for our wedding. Their communication was excellent - they always responded quickly to our questions and were incredibly helpful and accommodating throughout the planning process. On the day of the wedding, their service was impeccable and the food was absolutely delicious. The coffee station was a huge hit with our guests! Jamie, our point of contact, was amazing to work with - she was always available to help and made sure everything ran smoothly. We highly recommend My Chef Catering to any couple planning their wedding.

Since day 1, My Chef has been an excellent catering company. They were on a preferred wedding vendor list, and I can see why. They were so responsive with every request. We saw them at a wedding expo event and they were beyond friendly. When we signed and did our tasting to pick our exact meals, the chef was amazing and the service could not have been better. We walked out of there so excited to have My Chef catering our food. The day of, everything went smoothly, they helped us remain on schedule and SO many people gave so many compliments on the appetizers, dinner and late night snack. We are hoping to use them again for our next catering event!

My Chef Catering was amazing! The food was incredible! All of our guest raved about their meal choices! And we had such a great experience all the way through our process. From the initial consultation to the tasting to the wedding day, everything went so smoothly. We brought our own appetizers and cake and My Chef was so kind enough to put out the appetizers during our ceremony and cut and serve the cake they didn't even provide! I would recommend My Chef catering to anyone!!

My Chef was perfect all around. The food was so amazing, I heard such great things about all who ate it. That is nothing compared to the staff though! The staff went above and beyond throughout the night. One server even heard my mom talking about our cake that we cut. She went and grabbed it to show the guests who she was talking about. It was so sweet and generous and just heartwarming. They saved us a whole plate of our hors d'oeuvres that we (the bride and groom) got to enjoy during dinner since we did not have a chance to grab a lot during cocktail hour. Again, the food was absolutely amazing but what really really dropped my jaw was the service and the extremely amazing people they have representing their company.

Our experience with MyChef was nothing short of fantastic. We coordinated our wedding with Andrew, and he was extremely present throughout the entire process, keeping us up to date with everything and answered all questions and made adjustments as necessary.
After our tasting, one of the thing my husband and I could not stop telling everyone that the thing we were most excited for was the food- we started to get a little concerned that we were overselling it, but if anything we might not have be complimentary enough.
We heard all night how incredible the food was- members of the wedding party went on a hunt for some of the hors d’oeuvres and they were so popular that they had to work as a team to get what they wanted before they were snatched up. The entrees were incredible, the late night snacks were a hit, and the coffee bar had extra touches that gave the whole experience such personality and elevated the whole dessert table to another level.
On top of that, that staff was absolutely wonderful to have at our wedding. The servers were so professional and speedy, and Andrew was so present and involved all night, not only checking in with my husband and I and making sure we didn’t miss out on anything and hearing our concerns, but also making sure he sought out my mother and other members of the family who could make executive decisions so that we could enjoy ourselves throughout the night as well. They were even able to make some unexpected last minute adjustments for certain guest with dietary restrictions that were unexpected- and while we certainly had no expectations of them to adjust so last minute, the fact that they were able to accommodate our guests was such a lovely touch to our night.
We had one comment that really stood out- one of our groomsmen said that they paid twice as much money as we did for the food as his wedding, and it wasn’t even half as good. That probably sums up our entire experience- worth every single penny that we spent and beyond. We really can’t recommend working with MyChef enough, and we’re so thrilled we chose them for our wedding!

My Chef was a star right from the get-go. Our coordinator, Chloe, did an excellent job with staying on top of our requests and helping us make sure we had everything we needed for a buffet at our wedding. On the day of our wedding, everyone was raving about how delicious the hors d'oeuvres were and about how much they enjoyed the main course. A really memorable thing My Chef did for my husband and I was bring us a big plate of all the hors d'oeuvres we ended up missing during cocktail hour because we were busy taking photos. Thank you for taking care of us and our guests!!

My Chef Catering was one of the preferred vendors for our venue and we can understand why. From the start, the were super communicative and didn't hesitate to answer any and all of our questions. We personally worked with Jamie and we could not give her enough praise. She helped us through choosing our menu and let us come in for tastings to get it all just right and be able to accommodate multiple dietary restrictions. All our guests raved about the appetizers and told us they couldn't believe how great the entrees were as well. The staff were very attentive and continued to make sure us (as the bride and groom) and our immediate family was taken care of. They even saved us some appetizers and placed them at the sweetheart table, knowing we made it at the end of cocktail hour. We truly only have good things to say about My Chef Catering.

My Chef was the exclusive caterer through our venue, Venue 5126. They were AMAZING to work with and the food was PHENOMENAL! We first met with Susan for our tasting and she was so sweet and kind, and made the experience 100x better! I really loved the pear salad but we ultimately decided on the caesar salad for our guests as it’s more universal. Susan went out of her way to bring one pear salad to our wedding for me and it was the kindest gesture. The apps we chose were so good, all of our guests kept complimenting all of them. We had chosen Mac n cheese bites (guest favorite), stuffed mini peppers (my favorite), stuffed mushrooms and these stuffed cheese balls. The staff was great with getting all of these passed out before dinner. We splurged extra to get the filet medallions and vodka chicken, but it was so worth it! All the food was fresh when served and tasted the exact same from when we tried it at the tasting. Susan was a great communicator and she added three gluten free meals one day prior to the wedding for a few guests. Susan and the My Chef crew made our wedding go seamless and she was even there during the event to check on everything. If you need a sign to choose this caterer, this should be it!

My Chef Catering should be at the top of anyone's list for wedding reception catering in the Chicagoland area. From the time of the first meeting with the My Chef Catering team all the way until the end of the wedding reception, My Chef Catering provided us with a first-class experience that has received several compliments from our guests. We are so thankful to have found such a well-trained and professional staff for our wedding reception!

So happy we chose this caterer for our wedding. It was one of the talks of our weddings. So many of our guest LOVED how tender and juicy the beef medallions with red wine reduction was and how tender and not dry our chicken with bacon jam was. I also loved the salad. It was amazing as well. I had so many fears the food wouldn’t be as good as the tasting but it was amazing if not better day of wedding. We had the pleasure of working with Andrew and he was professional, knowledgeable of our venue setup and speedy with responding to my emails. The runners to make sure all tables were cleared of empty plates were awesome to have, food was fresh and hot, and servers of the buffet did amazing. I truly couldn’t be happier with this company and can’t thank them enough for making our food the talk of the wedding. Thank you all at My Chef.

The food was absolutely delicious—our guests raved about the food served, and we kept hearing compliments throughout the night and for weeks after! Not only was the food exceptional, but the service was top-notch. Jamie and her team were such a pleasure to work with, making the entire night stress-free and enjoyable. We highly recommend My Chef for any event! They truly went above and beyond to make our day perfect. Thank you for everything, My Chef!

My Chef is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! Jamie, the coordinator, contacted our venue before our tasting to provide us with the most accurate quote possible and we didn't know she was calling the venue. The tasting itself was presented nicely and the food was absolutely delicious!! They accommodate dietary restrictions at no extra cost. My friend is gluten-free and she said their food was amazing as well as did not upset her stomach. Jamie also scheduled a meeting to see the venue prior to the wedding without our knowledge then contacted us to say we can adjust a few things in our contact. One was the time for cleanup would take 30 minutes less than anticipated so she took that amount off, which lowered our total amount due (I never had anyone do that before). Jamie was there the day of the wedding and she continued to impress my husband I. She was beyond attentive to our needs and her crew was well seasoned. I saw them have a team meeting and everyone worked so well. We did buffet style and they got through all 160 guests in 15 minutes. Jamie cleaned up messes and kept checking on my husband and I. Their customer services, professionalism, communication, and everything about them is stellar!!! Definitely use them. Worth the cost!! We also did a dessert bar as well, which everyone loved!

My husband and I were so impressed with the exceptional service we received from My Chef Catering for our wedding. From the very first interaction, their communication was attentive, courteous, and perfect. The quality of their work and value was truly unremarkable - the food was immaculate and our guests raved about it. The caterers were always on top of making sure everything was top-notch, and they even made sure we had everything we needed, with zero errors. In fact, they were so attentive that they even gave my husband a second plate of food because it was just that good! We are so grateful to My Chef Catering for helping make our special day truly unforgettable.

Sue and My Chef were absolutely amazing. The food was SPECTACULAR and I am a very picky eater. I was surprised with myself enjoying the food so much. The staff took the time to make sure I had a special meal due to my food allergies. They also took the time to make sure my food would stay warm and make sure we had enough of it. They got us a separate tray of appetizers since we were too busy taking photos during cocktail hour to enjoy them. We loved My Chef and would gladly book them for any other catering event we needed.

Sue and her team at My Chef were incredible to work with throughout the entire wedding process. Their communication leading up to the event was wonderful. They were quick to respond to all our needs, straightforward, up front and open about the process and pricing the entire time. They were easy to work with and schedule a tasting, an even they went above and beyond to prepare so many dishes. We appreciated the fun and relaxed atmosphere of the tasting, it was one of the highlights of the wedding process. When it came to the event the food was incredible, somehow it tasted better than at the tasting. The service was impeccable. They were cautious and courteous of guest dietary restrictions, including serving plated dishes to a table of sober guests just in case the buffet contained alcohol, something we didn't ask for and meant a lot to the guests. Sue even got the bride a pack of Tums and Sprite when she noticed the bride may not be feeling well. Overall we'd highly recommend My Chef to anyone!

Through our Venue, we were introduced to My Chef Catering! We specifically worked with Susan-who was simply amazing and a joy to be around and plan with. Our tasting went extremely smooth and their rating system allowed us to pick everything with ease while ensuring all guests will be satisfied! We chose the family style option for our wedding and it was magnificent! Everything was delicious and well plated! It rained on our wedding day, and of course during dinner there was a break in the clouds, so we had to step out and get some good pictures! While we were out, they took our food to keep warm, and when we returned they served it to us! Such a thoughtful gesture. 5/5 star experience for taste, professionalism, communication! Everything was amazing! Highly recommend.

My Chef was an incredible service to cater our wedding in Wheaton, IL. The options provided were diverse and delicious all around. They offered customizable catering offerings where we could pick either buffet style or plated with a cuisine of anything you could possibly think of. The dessert table with our late night snack was definitely a hit. However, we think one of the best parts of the catering service was our wedding coordinator, Alex Van Peenen. He worked with us every step of the way from the tastings, to the linen choices, to being there on site for the wedding day. He was incredible throughout the entire process and made sure that all we had to worry about was each other and celebrating with our friends and family. Would HIGHLY recommend to anyone looking for a wedding caterer in the Chicago land area to choose My Chef as your vendor of choice!

My Chef Catering was really top notch from the beginning. We used them through Venue 5126 for our wedding in June 2024 and could not be happier. I will say I was nervous at first since we can only use them through Venue 5126. We had to sign our contract with the venue before ever tasting the food. Looking back, there was nothing to be nervous about. Our tasting was done privately, and was invited to bring others along. We got to sample literally everything and anything we wanted. Also, Sue is a hoot! You will not be disappointed with this caterer, but if nothing else, there is definitely entertainment from Sue. She made us laugh and helped us feel at ease with the overwhelming task of wedding planning. She also has a heart of gold and takes her job seriously. On our wedding day, she personally came up to us at the head table, asking if we need anything, including putting out plates back in the stove to come out piping hot. It was hot when it came out originally! She also allowed us to be her “boujie bride and groom”. We were able to have a separate meal each from our guests. We would use Sue and her services again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Sue!!

We worked with Chloe from our inquiry to our wedding day. She was quick to respond and made the whole process so easy. Her coordination with other vendors was seamless, and they set up and broke down efficiently without any disruptions. This level of organization took a lot of stress off our shoulders. We received numerous compliments from our guests about the food and service. We highly recommend My Chef for any event—they truly made our day special.

We worked with Andrew Iozzo and he was fantastic to work with. He was very helpful, very detail-oriented, very flexible, and was such a kind person to work with. Everything we slected for our wedding tasted amazing and our guests were gushing about the dinner all night long! The food was quite affordable for the high quality of food you're served.

From the beginning at the taste tasting to the day of, Chloe and My Chef Catering were amazing.
They gave us a wide spread of food that was elegant and tasty!
We want to thank them for all the hard work that went into making the day go on perfectly!
They have a wide selection of options to choose from to make sure that you get exactly what you want. Chloe was amazingly helpful with answering all our questions, going over little details, and making sure the service didn't interrupt any of our speeches.
They checked in on us several times throughout dinner and were flexible with our guests who had allergies or special dietary needs.
We had a late night snack and had plenty of compliments from our guests over the food choices!
The team they had on the day was amazing! Everything was timely and they always made sure that we had what we needed. We felt pampered and well taken care of!
We definitely recommend MyChef catering for your catering needs and we would definitely use them again!
Thank you Chloe and MyChef, for helping make our day special! Words can't thank you guys enough!

My Chef Catering was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding this past September. We worked with Chloe and she was friendly, professional, organized, and everything else you could want in an event coordinator. She went above and beyond for us on the big day and words cannot express our gratitude for her enough. As for the food, we had a hard time at our tasting choosing what to serve because everything was so good! Our guests were blown away by how delicious the food was and still rave about it. Everything was perfect down to the napkins. I cannot recommend this company enough!

We are very happy with the service and quality of food we received with My Chef Catering.

We appreciated that they did their best to keep pricing and our menu as close to what we originally planned as possible. And the food turned out to be delicious. We did the buffet and we are still getting compliments on the food weeks after the wedding.

MyChef was truly amazing for our wedding. We signed with another caterer that unexpectedly went out of business and sent their contracts to MyChef and I AM SO HAPPY THAT THIS HAPPENED! We liked the food with MyChef even more than our original caterer AND they kept pricing as similar as they could to our original contract but their quality was so much better! We dealt with Chloe at our tasting, who was great, and Andrew did most of the contract, emailing, etc. Both were so professional and helpful. Now, the day of is what really blew me away. We had butler passed appetizers and then a plated dinner for almost 200 people. The real challenge was we wanted dinner to take up as little time as possible.. who wants to be waiting around to get the party started? MyChef and their employees got our food served, and HOT, in an hour's time. It was truly amazing and my guests won't stop raving about the food. LOVE THIS CATERER! Give them a look for your event!

My Chef came highly recommended by our venue and did not disappoint! Chloe was a dream to work with and everything was absolutely delicious. After I raved to my mom about the tasting, she used My Chef for my bridal shower as well, and on both events both the food and staff were fantastic. Chloe and her team were professional, friendly, and blended in seamlessly. Everything went off without a hitch. Communication was super easy throughout the process and I so appreciate how easy it was to work with them. My Chef even prepared the bride and groom's entrees early, so we could eat during cocktail hour and visit with our guests during dinnertime. I also appreciated the options for flatware and dishware that helped to elevate the tables and make them look more elegant.
Specifically on food, our guests RAVED about the donut bar. We almost cut it and I'm so glad we didn't! On entrees, there were so many great choices and we ended up with a his and hers -- his was bistro steak with to die for mashed potatoes and hers was a parmesan crusted chicken with bowtie pasta and a pesto sauce, YUM! The mac & cheese bites as one of the appetizers was my personal favorite. Thank you My Chef!

My Chef really elevated our wedding experience through their tasty food and amazing service. Due to our previous caterer closing their business, we ended up booking with My Chef semi-last minute. They really took on a lot and made strives to ensure we were getting the same quality of service our previous caterer was offering. They truly believe above and beyond in their service. We mostly worked with Chloe and Jamie, who were both terrific in their communication and hospitality. They were really flexible on what we envisioned for the menu and perfectly implemented all of our requests. The food itself was delicious and visually pleasing. We got a ton of compliments on the food from the guests. Among the favorites were the Italian Sausage and the goat cheese tart but we don’t have any complaints on any of the food that was offered. We really appreciate all your staff’s work as everyone was very attentive and polite. We would love My Chef for future catering needs and would definitely recommend their services to friends and family.

My Chef did my nieces wedding in my backyard. They were the best. Chloe was the best throughout the whole process. Never having done this before she guided me through everything. Things I hadn't even thought of. She was the best. The day of Janet and her team did an excellent job. Food was amazing. Everyone raved about everything from the table arrangements, linens, food and the service etc. Would absolutely recommend My Chef Catering.

I am so glad I went with MyChef for my wedding! Working with Chloe was seamless, she really made sure that everything was covered even with multiple changes throughout the planning! Not to mention, I received many compliments about the food from our guests!

We can't thank My Chef Catering enough for all they did for us. Our original caterer had to back out due to unforeseen circumstances. My Chef stepped in with only few months to coordinate and they did an amazing job. They honored our entire original contract and went over every single detail to ensure we had a great experience. Their professionalism was outstanding. But lets talk about the food. I have never heard as many compliments about our dinner as we have. My boss even said just yesterday "you don't go to a wedding expecting excellent food but it was the best I've ever had"! We had a buffet with 3 main dish options and the beef, chicken, and fish were all cooked to perfection. The servers were so attentive and dishes removed immediately. Oh and lets not forget about the appetizers. My guests were still talking about them the next day. Andrew was our coordinator and he was so patient with me the days leading up to the wedding as my guest count changed 4 times in the last week. We can't recommend My Chef Catering enough. Thank you Andrew and Dominck!

We used My Chef Catering for our daughter's wedding and it was AMAZING. During the 18 months of planning, Alex was efficient, knowledgeable, calm and detail oriented. He was incredibly patient with my numerous emails and questions! The communication leading up to the event was always timely and so helpful. Wedding Day was seriously perfect. The tables were beautiful. The food was absolutely delicious; appetizers, entree and the most incredible sweets table that our guests are still talking about! (Shout out to Lisa)
The servers were friendly and professional and took care of everything. Our guests loved the bartenders, Nick and Gregor.
Thanks to Dominick, Alex and the entire My Chef staff for making my daughter's wedding the amazing day it was. They exceeded our expectations and we confidently and highly recommend them to cater any event.

Sue Jacobs and the staff at MyChef was absolutely amazing on our wedding day. We had a blast doing our tasting, and our guests only had great things to say about the food on our big day. They even saved us a tray of appetizers for our sweetheart table as we were off taking photos during cocktail hour! They checked in on us several times throughout dinner and were flexible with our guests who had allergies or special dietary needs. Sue felt like part of our family taking care of us, and I would highly recommend MyChef to anyone getting married in the Chicagoland area!

We are so glad that we chose My Chef Catering for my daughters wedding! I was told repeatedly how delicious the food was. I totally agree. I did tell the chef how delicious everything was and he asked if it was hot. He was concerned that the food was cold. it was not! The groom's mother ordered a vegan meal which she said was delicious as well. The Roasted Romano Cauliflower was fantastic and my husband is now searching for a recipe for it!!!
What I was unaware of was how helpful the staff was going to be especially at the end of the evening. Christine kept shooing me away telling me that they would take care of cleaning up and getting things together. I did not expect that but then I don't hire caterers! I automatically go into help/clean up/organize mode so it was not unusual for me to gear up. I also did not want my daughter to have to do anything.
It was a wonderful day and I thank My Chef Catering for helping make it so.

We got notice that our cater could no longer support our wedding 2 and a half months out from our date. We desperately were reaching out to find people to help accommodate and knowing that MyChef was going to be overwhelmed with other couple also reaching out they still managed to help deliver the most delicious food and service for our wedding day. Chloe was amazing to work with through the planning process and was very responsive and Jaime was there the day off to see that everything was executed perfectly. We’ve had multiple guests tell us it was the best food they’ve had at a wedding and we couldn’t agree more. Thank you MyChef for being such a big part of our most perfect day!

My Chef Catering exceeded our expectations when it came to customer service and taste! We had the pleasure of working with Sue who was the sweetest and most thoughtful coordinator. She was a great representation of what this caterer and vendor cares about most and that is delivering quality to its couples on their big days. We had so many of our guests compliment the service and taste of the appetizers and main courses. Sue went above and beyond to help us accommodate some special meal needs, and also supported us through our entire day ensuring everything was in place well in advance of me walking down the aisle. I felt so secure and at ease knowing My Chef Catering was there to help us celebrate our big day! We can’t recommend them enough for any of your catering needs. If you are a bride to be who wants the assurance of a great coordinator and catering partner, on top of delicious food, then look no further than My Chef Catering! Thank you to Sue and My Chef for our beautiful day!

My Chef Catering was a pleasure to work with. About a month before our wedding, we needed to change catering companies unexpectedly, and My Chef swooped in to save the day. The team was timely and professional throughout the whole process. The food was absolutely delicious and our guests loved it.
