I hosted a couple of financial workshops recently, and we catered our lunches through The Hometown Chef Catering Co. First of all, the food was very delicious, fresh and tasty, and lots of it. Yasmin delivered our lunch for both of our workshops so we were happy to see her again. Set up was on time and everything was nicely laid out and ready for us when lunch break came. I can't give 10 stars to Tiffany and Julio and their team, but I would if I could. Simply the best for catered meals and events.
Response from the owner:Amanda, thank you for your amazing review and compliments. Working with professionals like you make us love what we do even more! We are always here for you!

We'd been talking non-stop about this food ever since we had the tasting. I know my husband loved the salmon but I think the potatoes stole the plate. Silvia and everyone at this company was so easy to work with. She was one of the first caterers to respond to us with an estimate and mock up menus as soon as the query was put out. You can tell she knew what she was doing. Highly recommend!
Response from the owner:Brian and Nick, the two of you were a dream to work with!! Thank you for your kind compliments on Silvia and the team. We pride ourselves on quick responses because we want you to know how important you and your event are to us. We truly wish you two a lifetime of love and happiness!

You cannot go wrong working with the Hometown Chef Catering Co. This was our third time having them host our event for us. The very first one was only 48 hours away as an emergency and we've been fans ever since. The staff is professional, kind, hard working, and take care of everything so you don't have to from beginning to end.
Response from the owner:Kristen, your words truly made our day! You are always a pleasure to work with and our team always has great things to say about your event so the feeling is mutual! Cheers to many more events together! Tiffany

Hometown was our vendor for the cocktail hour passed hors d’oeuvres for our wedding at The Springs Event Cypress and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. So many of our guests came up to us and told us how delicious everything was! They were also very accommodating for some of the special requests that we had. One of my guests wasn’t able to consume black pepper so they made a special plate for that guest, all the Hors d'oeuvres without black pepper for him, which was very thoughtful. We loved meeting Tiffany and Julio because we can feel the passion behind Hometown and they are just genuinely great people. You can tell that they make their food with love. Our guests absolutely loved the Hors d'oeuvres! Some of them included: - Braised pork belly bites - Tender churrasco skewers - Mini birria taco shooter - Smoked bacon wrapped shrimp - Mini BLT - Short rib and potato vol au vent The owners are easy to work with and really go out of their way to make sure your wedding day is filled with delicious bites. My husband and I were blown away when we went to the tasting, not only by the food but by Tiffany and Julio. They are the sweetest people, seriously! We knew that we made the right choice. I highly recommend and you definitely won’t regret it. Thank you again Hometown!! It was an absolute pleasure working with you.
Response from the owner:Saki and Raymond!!! We love you guys and the fact that you close us to be a part of your big day made us so very happy! Then to get a review like this… wow!!! Thank you for your glowing praises. As you said, we do it with love. Cheers to many, many happy years of love and laughs together. Tiffany 🥰

The Hometown Chef is one of my favorite caterers to use. Not only is their food delicious and their menus creative and always fit our themed events perfectly, but their presentation is always over and above anyone else's. No two times is it presented the same. Similar maybe, but there is always something new to look at! They're easy to work with too and can pretty much cater any type of event size-wise. 10/10 - Highly recommend!
Response from the owner:Tracie! Thank you so much for kind words and praise! It’s always such a joy to work with you! Cheers to many more events together!

We had the pleasure of working with this caterer for our PRSA Excalibur Awards, and they were absolutely amazing! From the start, they went above and beyond to accommodate our needs—even adapting their usual service to provide a plated dinner, which they don’t typically offer, just to make it work for our venue. They brought a full team who were all incredibly professional, friendly, and easy to work with. Their flexibility and attention to detail made the entire experience seamless. And the food? Delicious! It was a huge hit with our guests and truly elevated the event. Highly recommend—an outstanding team that delivers both exceptional service and quality!
Response from the owner:Emely, you are a true gem to work with. We love doing plated meal service and thanks for having us be a part of your Awards event! Cheers to next year!

Hometown Chef catered our wedding a couple of weeks ago. Every single person we talked to after our wedding raved about the food. Everyone absolutely loved it. The service was immaculate throughout the entire time. I requested for servers to speak Spanish if possible (as our family is mostly Spanish speaking), and every server spoke Spanish! They took great care of my husband and I! They constantly checked in on us and grabbed us whatever we needed. I could not recommend this catering service more. If you want excellent service, tasty wedding food, and a company that cares about your wedding book Hometown Chef!
Response from the owner:Oh my goodness!! Your rave review is so super amazing! Thank you for your amazing words of praise! It was one for the books! Your review is top front and center on our socials! Many wishes to you both for a lifetime of love and happiness. Thanks for letting us be a part of it!!
