Knoxville, TN

“Manis & Co. absolutely exceeded our expectations at my daughter’s wedding reception and played a huge role in making the day such a success. One of our biggest concerns when planning the reception was ensuring that guests with food allergies would have safe and delicious meal options. Manis & Co. handled this flawlessly. Our guests with dietary restrictions were able to enjoy both the appetizers and dinner with confidence, which meant so much to our family. The food presentation was inviting and reflected the same level of care and attention to detail that went into the menu itself. The staff was professional, friendly, and accommodating throughout the entire event, ensuring that guests felt well taken care of from start to finish. During our final planning meeting about 30 days before the wedding, Kristen confidently told us that they had never run out of food. We joked that our guest list might put that claim to the test! As it turned out, our guests loved the food so much that many went back for seconds and even thirds. The steak and chicken were especially tender, and guests repeatedly commented on how flavorful the accompanying sauces were, including the dairy-free option. In fact, people were still talking about how wonderful the food was at our breakfast send-off the following morning. If you are considering Manis & Co. for your wedding or special event, I cannot recommend them highly enough. For anyone hesitant about choosing a buffet-style service, don't be. Our venue did not have a kitchen, making a buffet our only option, and we initially had concerns about how it would compare to a plated meal. Manis & Co. completely changed our perspective. The food was fresh, beautifully presented, plentiful, and absolutely delicious.”

Everything was fresh and tasty and Sara served it all up with a smile. I would definitely recommend to anyone who is looking for great food and great service.”
