Take a moment and let us know. I just received my party box and could not have been more surprised and pleased. While I was expecting yummy food, as always, the presentation in the glossy black boxes, tied up with ribbon, with the treats all nestled in the fun confetti and tied up with more bows, made it all seem so special and fun.

I went to a work event this week and they had hired Max Ultimate Food to cater for this 75 person event in the office. The food was the best passed appetizers I have ever had - the presentation of each dish was amazing and the flavors of each was delicious - mini tacos but each laying on their own lime, wanton in a chinese spoon with flavors that burst in your mouth, real crab meat crab cakes (the opposite of flat fried patties), waffles and chicken with an incredible sauce drizzled on top, mini empanadas. Three days later and I am still thinking about how yummy it was.

We used MAX Ultimate for a dinner party this weekend. They were FABULOUS! They were professional, courteous, efficient, left the house in immaculate condition, and the food was absolutely outstanding. I was able to completely enjoy myself with my guests and didn't worry about one thing. Would definitely hire them again!

My husband and I used Max Ultimate for our wedding in June, 2014 and could not have been happier. Food and drinks were very important to us, so we did a lot of research to pick a vendor. Max Ultimate worked with us to customize the menu between some of their popular choices and creating personalized offering that we suggested based on inspiration we had from some of our favorite restaurants.
In addition to the food, drinks were also very important to us and we were able to work with Max Ultimate to create 6 signature cocktails to offer our guests, and they all were amazing! To top off the delicious food and drinks, the service was very attentive and well organized. Overall, I highly recommend Max Ultimate to anyone who wants to make food one of the top priorities of their wedding. We heard from so many of our guests that the food, drinks and service was some the best of any wedding they had attended.

Used them for our foodie wedding and everything was PERFECT! We are a big tequila family and our signature drinks were sangria, margaritas which were awesome, but Max created little tequila shots with a passionfruit mixer that were so fun! People felt like they were doing shots, but they weren't getting hammered before things even got going. We didn't do a traditional wedding cake, but instead had passed desserts- salted caramel brownie pops, mini apple crisps in tiny mason jars, peach hand pies, chocolate turtles. Amazing. Everything. It is almost a year later and my friends still close their eyes when reminiscing about all of the food at our wedding! Cannot recommend them enough.

Need your formal event to be PERFECT? Call Max. My organization recently held a 10th anniversary party and we were so grateful that we made the decision to go with Max's. The food was exquisite, and very attractively presented. But I think what made the strongest impression was the service. All of the servers were very professional and helpful, but the manager truly stood out. Jason was an absolute sanity saver.his poise, diplomacy, and sense of humor when it was needed saved the day. He is a total gem, and interacting with him and his staff was actually one of my favorite parts of the party! Couldn't recommend this business more highly.

Wow! These guys are as good as catering can get. They catered a dinner at our home. The food was amazing, with appetizers like mini lamb burgers and Vietnamese garden rolls, followed by monkfish over risotto and braised short ribs with lentils, topped off by a trio of delicious mini-desserts. Every dish was outstanding and perfectly seasoned. In addition, the service was pleasant and elegant, and they cleaned up impeccably. They totally surpassed our expectations. Wow!

We used MAX Ultimate Catering for our wedding. My husband's sister had used them for their 150 person wedding two years ago and was really happy with them. We had 60 people at our wedding and they executed everything from food to the decor perfectly. Dan, the owner of the business, made these really cool rustic tables for the reception and decorated them with different vases and flowers of various shades of yellow.
There were candles everywhere and sparkling lights inside the tent. It looked so sweet and elegant. I heard that the appetizers for cocktail hour were delicious even though i didn't get a chance to try any. My maid of honor loved the peking duck pockets. I did have dinner though, and it was delicious, way better than I could have imagined. They came up with this really cool concept of eating family style, so we passed dishes around the table, which really complemented the intimacy of the wedding. MAX Ultimate Catering took care of everything from the tent to the food, to the clean up. They even made the wedding cake, which looked like we had gone to a cake-shop. They were wonderful and made the wedding a huge success.
