An A+ Amazing quality & Freshness. We had family for Xmas from overseas. They would not stop talking about the flavor, freshness and superb quality. We are so impressed of the amazing customer service provided to us. Professionally packaged items. We ordered the "Holiday Dinner Package" for 10 people, but had only 7 people. Plenty of left over for following day and next. Absolutely Recommend! Will order in future and years to come. Thank you Michael's!

We are so incredibly grateful to the Catering by Michael's team for making our foodie dreams come true at our wedding last month! We could not have had a better experience. Stacey worked with meticulous detail to make sure every little detail was executed perfectly. We loved collaborating with the CBM team on our menu, especially our international/fusion appetizers.

We had a vision of serving a Nashville hot chicken bao bun appetizer (inspired by one of our favorite Nashville restaurants) and Stacey truly moved mountains to make sure it was executed perfectly. The team did an excellent job at accommodating our guests' dietary restrictions. The servers and bartenders were attentive, responsive, and had great attitudes.

Our guests were raving about our food, with many saying it was the best food they'd ever had at a wedding. We are so lucky to have such an incredible catering company on the North Shore!

Have so many great things to say about Michaels. The entire process was super easy, the food was delicious and the service was outstanding. Used Michaels for a 50th reunion and it was even better than expected. From dealing with Nathan in sales, to Emily coordinating the event, to Modesto, Eban and all the other servers it was simply the best! Modesto and Eban had me laughing all night.

The food was extremely tasty. Consummate professionals and would highly recommend for all your catering events. Love Catering by Michaels. Thank you for making my life easier and turning the event into a memorable occasion.

Michael's did an outdoor party for us on 8/14/21. They did an excellent job for us, they were responsive and professional, and it was one-stop shopping - they provided the food, tables, chairs, tent - we couldn't ask for more! The weather was great too, and we got a lot of compliments on our party. We will definitely use them again!

I wish I could give them 10 stars! Michaels was highly recommended by my most trusted sources and more than lived up to our highest expectations. They are consummate professionals. Everything was absolutely delicious, perfectly prepared, attractively displayed, courteously served. Moriah thought of everything and was always responsive and easy to work with.

We were planning the wedding from two coasts to take place in the middle and it was postponed for a year due to the pandemic, but Michael's kept it all running smoothly. A++.

Catering By Michael's is the one and only company to use for your events. They were best of class from the initial phone call all the way through the cleaning up at the end of our wedding. David and his entire team treated us like VIPS! They seamlessly coordinated our wedding and made it absolutely perfect. It was like being in a movie! Do you yourself the biggest favor and call Catering By Michael's for your next event!

I talked to a bunch of caterers about a housewarming party, and Catering by Michaels was by far the best. They "got" what I was trying to do, and what I wanted to do, and customized everything to be exactly how I wanted it to be. They were responsive, and the team on the night of the party was professional. but I think it was accommodating those little details that will make me come back. Highly recommend.

Catering by Michaels was wonderful to deal with. They were professional, responsive and were able to change course when needed. Our dedicated contact person was responsive, creative and worked with in our budget. The day of providers quietly performed their duties and cleaned up! We recommend Catering by Michaels!

I have used Catering by Michaels for several family holidays (including Thanksgiving) and have been incredibly pleased with them. The food is delicious, instructions are thorough and everything arrived. organized and without leaks. When hosting a large group it is wonderful to know the food will be perfect and I can focus on setting my table.

I ordered Passover dinners sent to my children and one for myself. Each was labeled for two people. They could have served 6. The food was excellent, the quantities extremely generous and the instructions to reheat very simple. It was a very pleasant surprise and we would not hesitate to order again on other occasions. Great job

I am the least qualified hostess on earth and I just hosted the best family event ever thanks to Catering by Michaels. I cannot say enough about the quality of the food, the simple, no-spill packaging, the easy to follow instructions. Everything tasted like it came from my grandma's kitchen and it was no hassle no fuss for me. I am a fan for life.

My entire family appreciated the wonderful, perfect Passover meal that was prepared and organized for us. From ordering the meal, to the pickup, to the reheating/cooking instructions - everything was so well. done. None of that to outshine the meal itself - everything was so perfectly prepared it was truly as if we made the meal ourselves - even better! There is no doubt we will all not hesitate to use Michael's again and again. Thank you all for making our Passover perfect! Leslie Pickus Mazza and family

Catering by Michaels served onsite at our office reception. Not only was the service and food excellent, the decor they arranged was incredible! Everyone was floored by the entire experience and cannot wait to. secure them for future events. Stacey, David, Victor and their teams were an absolute dream to work with. 5 stars, A-Plus and 100%!

They were so accommodating and delicious! They catered our wedding and still 3 years later people talk about the food! We cant say enough great things about them from the flavor combinations to the. professionalism and options offered. They came on after I wasn't thrilled with the food from another top Chicago caterer and we made a last minute switch and Im SO GLAD WE DID! 5 star all around! One of the best decisions from our wedding day!
