Reviews

Pink Cloud Catering/Chef Mike's is the best catering service I've ever used. They were prompt, had great communication before and during our wedding reception, planned carefully and executed their jobs flawlessly! Dianne was especially easy to work with and the rest of the staff was pleasant and helpful. I had several guests comment on how wonderful and delicious the food was. In addition, [Chef Mike SRQ] was willing to make modifications to their usual menu based on food restrictions shared by many of my guests. So they were pleasant, extremely competent, discreet and flexible, all while serving amazing food in a stylish manner. I would highly recommend them to anyone!
