Chef Lemaire has featured on several TV shows: he was the host chef of the “Taste of Haiti” episode of the "Luda Can't Cook" series on Discovery+ with award winning rapper, actor, restauranteur Chris "Ludacris" Bridges.

Maison D Events and Hospitality 
Rating: 5.0 (9 reviews)
  • Serves Lake Wales, FL

With over 15 years of experience Maison D is the premier catering and hospitality company you would ever need. We do everything from catering to event planning and everything in-between. We take your event to the next level and elevate it in every way possible

I don’t usually take the time to write reviews, but after my experience with Maison D Events and Hospitality, I felt like they truly deserved one. From the first conversation all the way through the end of the event, everything was handled with so much professionalism, care, and attention to detail. Planning an event can be stressful, especially when you’re trying to make sure the food, setup, timing, and overall experience come together the way you imagined. The team at Maison D made the entire process feel so much easier. They listened to what we wanted, communicated with us throughout the process, and were very accommodating when it came to the little details that mattered to us. The food was honestly one of the highlights of the event. Everything tasted fresh, was seasoned really well, and the presentation was beautiful. Our guests kept talking about how good the food was, and several people even asked who catered the event. The portions were great, everything came out looking professional, and you could tell that they actually take pride in what they serve. What impressed me just as much as the food was the service. The staff was friendly, respectful, attentive, and professional without making things feel stiff or overly formal. They made sure our guests were taken care of and handled things behind the scenes without us having to constantly check in or worry about what was happening next. That allowed us to actually enjoy the event instead of spending the entire time trying to manage everything. There were also little touches throughout the event that showed they genuinely cared about the experience and weren’t just there to provide food and leave. That type of hospitality is hard to find. Overall, we had a really great experience with Maison D Events and Hospitality. If you’re planning a wedding, birthday, corporate event, private dinner, or any special occasion and want a team that cares about the details, provides great food, and treats your guests well, I would definitely recommend them. Thank you to the entire Maison D team for helping make our event such a great experience. We will definitely be using them again in the future!

Welcome! Our focus when dining with Ez Eats is to deliver an unforgettable food experience. Everyone who dines with us is considered a guest, not a client. We bring the fun, a vibe, and most importantly, amazingly delicious food!

From our first conversation with Eli at Ez Eats, we knew we had found our caterer. He was clear about what he could do, responded quickly to our questions, and stayed friendly throughout the whole process. What really impressed us was how he worked with our budget to create a meal that felt special without breaking the bank—something we were honestly surprised by. The food itself was incredible, from the plated rehearsal lunch with options for everyone to the buffet spread on our wedding day, and he even stepped away from the dinner and brought us (bride and groom) appetizers during photos so we didn't miss out. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how delicious everything was, and our photographer told us it was the best wedding food she'd ever had. Eli's talent, kindness, and willingness to accommodate our needs made our day feel seamless and special. We can't recommend Ez Eats highly enough.

Our wedding was planned in approximately 10 months and from the moment I sat down with Melissa at Dade City BBQ I knew it was the perfect choice for us. First, she was kind, always answered any and all questions we had, no matter how small they were. We met for a tasting (delish!) and fell in love with her even more. In addition, we tasted all the meats and sides for a BBQ buffet. We chose pulled pork, chicken quarters and added brisket. Our 3 sides were mac & cheese, collard greens and potato salad w/ cornbread. They were ALL delicious. Our guests raved about everything and especially the greens! We also opted for a grazing table for our guests. It was beautifully presented and absolutely beautiful and delicious. Our guests were in awe! She even made us our own plate because she knew we were busy talking with our guests. I would highly recommend this caterer! VERY FAIR prices, large portions and happy guests. I am 100% pleased. Thank you Melissa and your amazing staff!!
