CHUY'S WAS SUCH A GOOD CHOICE! Danny is the lead for catering and he was great through the whole process from scheduling a tasting, accommodating gluten allergies, and answering questions as the event approached. Even when my numbers changed quite a bit from invites sent out to RSVPs closer to the event, they flexed easily. Chuy's doesn't do contracts, which may weird some people out, but they are absolute professionals. Danny and the staff provided service with a smile, bussed tables, (I heard even helped some with clean up), and made to-go boxes for the groom and I (when we inevitably did not eat enough at the reception). The price was great, the food was amazing, and the staff were awesome. Highly recommend Chuy's for your event! We are so glad we worked with them!

Danny and his team were amazing from start to finish. While some couples go to several wedding food tastings, Chuy’s was our one and done stop! Danny provided an tasting for me and my now husband and displayed the options available for our wedding day. During wedding planning, Danny was always available and answered questions very timely. I really appreciate that Danny was so organized and I trusted him 100% with our day. On our wedding day, the staff was so kind and accommodating to us and all of our guests. The staff took care of all serving and clean up needs. Danny even made plates for me and my husband and checked in on us and guests throughout the reception. The food was outstanding and we received compliments from several guests on our wedding food choice. I could not recommend Chuy’s enough for your special event or wedding. I am so glad we trusted Chuy’s with such a big part of our special day.

My fiancé and I were searching for a good caterer for our wedding that is taking place later this year. When meeting the Chuy’s staff and coordinator, they were very welcoming and ...

answered all of our questions. We thought we had found the one—personable, dependable and the food was great. However, upon following up with the restaurant about forming a contract and placing a downpayment, we were told things such as “we’ve never really had this much back and forth with someone about catering, especially for a smaller wedding.” Upon explaining that most of our vendors immediately sent contracts and requested some form of down payment, and that we just wanted to make sure our bases were covered, we were told we could seek another caterer if we were uncomfortable. After about 2-3 months of having confirmed with them, we were more than a little shocked to get backlashed for checking in and trying to get a contract put in place. It felt very unprofessional and very different from how we had communicated with them in the past. If you want a caterer that allows for payment plans or putting half down early on, this is not the one for you. We were very disappointed and had to search elsewhere due to their reaction on something we assumed needed to be taken care of. What’s sad is I have liked Chuy’s and their food for years. Now I am not sure I will be going back.

t to help set up and ask if there was anything he could do to make the day easier. At dinner, he and the team helped deliver food to guests and clean up the tables. I honestly wouldn't have anyone else cater an event, it was such a good experience. The food was great and a big hit with the guests. I had more than one person come up to me during the wedding to compliment the caterers. I would highly recommend hiring Danny and his team.
