I waited awhile to write this review because I was so upset and needed the time! I hired above and beyond for my daughters wedding in February. The planning process was very simple...
and the food was great at the taste testing and the chef even changed one of the chicken menu items up to accommodate my daughters request. Sam the planner was great as well. However on the day of the wedding was another story. One of the food selection was the London broil. It was suppose to be Honey Hoisen and it was something completely different. Whatever we tasted at the taste testing was not that. The portions were extremely small and there were a lot of people that complained about it being really tough and chewy. Mine was barely warm as was another complaint from several guests. The chicken tasted good as they used the ingredients we asked for but was also warm at best. They took a really long time to deliver to every table as well. All in all the food was sub par! And not worth almost $30 a plate. Also we had roughly 20 people not show up and when we asked to have a few of the meals to bring home as we already paid for them Sam informed me there were no extra meals. However the people cutting the cake are close friends of mine and said all the staff was in the kitchen with mounds of food on plates eating when my guests literally had extremely small portions! It was very disappointing! A lot of my friends there are in the food industry and could not believe what we were served! Over half of the people were still hungry while their staff was in the back just eating away at food I purchased! I will not recommend this company at all! They only got a 2 star because the planning process was simple.
Sam and team at Above and Beyond catering were amazing to work with. They made the process of meal and logistics planning a breeze. Out of all of our tastings we are most impressed...
