Tamale Spaceship absolutely knocked it out of the park with their food, drinks, and service for our wedding. It was clear they put immense care and attention into our day. Also as someone who grew up eating Hispanic food, I can honestly say their dishes were some of the best I’ve ever had. And my mom, who has been cooking for decades and is famously critical of other people’s cooking, could not stop raving about the food. Latina mom stamp of approval. Their food was authentic and flavorful, and their service was personal and heartfelt. They even left us a handwritten card to congratulate us. So thoughtful, they went above and beyond. Gracias tanto Tamale Spaceship!!

      Jewell Events Catering 

      5.0

      Chicago, IL

        We know you dream of an extraordinary wedding day. Let Jewell Weddings help make that dream come true. The beauty of a Jewell wedding is legendary. Whether simply stated or extravagant, every wedding we cater has the signature Jewell Weddings style, that “step beyond,” which has set us apart for decades. Our consultants are passionate about entertaining, combining creativity and expertise, so that even the smallest detail is not forgotten. With a knowledge of Chicago special events, extending beyond just weddings, we will make sure that everything, down to the last fork, fits your style.

        My (now husband) and I booked with Jewell Events Catering probably a year and a half before our wedding. During that 1.5 years, we spoke regularly with Greg Jenkins (President), Hailey, and Maria (the Jewell Catering team) and I can not verbalize enough how helpful, involved and willing to go the extra mile they all were. Greg truthfully felt like an additional day-of-coordinator the way he helped us create our table design, source beautiful chargers and draping, discuss the timeline of the day, and get into the nitty-gritty details of every.single.aspect of the day. Not to mention the food is UNBELIEVABLE. Everyone complimented are food and I'm not shocked it was perfect based on the incredibly attention to detail Greg has. Everything (and I mean to the crumb) is under a microscope with Greg team, which makes the end product better than you could imagine. There are not many vendors that you leave the wedding planning process feeling like you are REAL friends, but with Greg and the Jewell Catering team, both my husband and I are genuinely sad to no longer have regular planning meetings with them! Greg team will show up to the venue with multiple-onsite walkthroughs, coordinate with the venue to resolve issues, and will handle last minute external issues without it coming to us so we can be blissfully happy on our special day. I never really leave reviews, but I HAD to leave a review for this team as they were the shining star of our vendor list without question. It's also worth mentioning we looked at 10 caterers for our event and could not be HAPPIER with our choice to go with Jewell. A Chicago wedding is overwhelming and exhausting to plan, but Jewell made it so much easier. Do not question it and do not price shop (believe me we did and it's a waste of time as they are aligned pricing wise with other lower-service options) - BOOK JEWELL EVENTS CATERING.

        Huegah Catering Co. 

        5.0

        Chicago, IL

          At Huegah, we believe that there is no client more important than you. When you work with us, we promise you our uncompromising attention to detail, food of the highest quality, and to be treated the way you want to be treated. We describe our cuisine as “dressed up eclectic comfort”. Our artful and delicious chef-crafted menu is guided by the season, inspired by you and your event, and begins with the freshest, hand-selected ingredients.

          We cannot recommend Huegah Catering enough! Our journey to finding the perfect caterer wasn’t easy—we initially tried another vendor and were disappointed even with just a small tasting for the two of us. But from the moment we walked into Huegah and met Angie and Paul, we knew we had found something special. From the very beginning, they made us feel welcomed, valued, and completely at ease. The entire experience was personalized beyond our expectations. Paul and Angie went above and beyond to accommodate every request—offering to drive to Wisconsin just to get Spotted Cow for our special day and even offering to follow a cherished family recipe from scratch if we wanted to include it in our meal. Their dedication, flexibility, and passion for what they do were evident in every interaction. They were the warmest and friendliest vendors we had and made our planning a joy! When it came to the food, they absolutely delivered. We chose filet and salmon, and every single plate was cooked to perfection—warm, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The quality was impeccable, and we lost count of how many guests came up to us raving about how much they loved their meal. The service was just as outstanding as the food. Paul and Angie were not only professional and attentive but also radiated joy, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. They seamlessly coordinated with all our other vendors, ensuring that every detail of our wedding night was perfect. We truly cannot thank Paul and Angie enough for everything they did to make our wedding so memorable. Without a doubt, we will be calling them again for any future family events. If you are looking for caterers who are passionate, accommodating, and will go the extra mile to make your event exceptional, look no further than Huegah Catering. Thank you, Paul and Angie, for making our wedding unforgettable!

            Ted joined J&L Catering in 1995 and was hired originally as a waiter for a corporate account within the company. Quickly moving up the ranks, he settled in to full-time event planning for the company, where he has remained working with our social, corporate and private clients for over 10 years. He has designed events for clients around the country, but particularly loves working in Chicago. Ted purchased the company in 2001 with his business partner and executive chef, Kevin Kelly. Along with the responsibilities of running a successful business with over one hundred-thirty employees, Ted is very active in Chicago’s fundraising community.

            I wish I could give them more stars, more reviews, more everything because they were INCREDIBLE. We are still getting compliments on our food a month later and, of course day of, everyone was RAVING. Jim was beyond helpful. He was there for us every step of the way and so supportive. The entire staff was fast, efficient, professional, supportive and just beyond friendly. I want to do it all over again just to see them all! I absolutely recommend J&L and will happily continue to do so!
