    I’m Chef Nisha, owner of Loaded by Nisha, with 9 years of experience in diverse cuisines. I've worked with high-profile clients and was voted a top private chef in AZ , NV, MO & CA Let’s schedule a meeting to discuss!

    Loaded By Nisha was absolutely amazing and undescribable. The communication from Chef Nisha and her team was communicative, descriptive and informative from start to finish. On our special day, they made themselves readily available and took care of all of our food needs with care and precision. The chef and her staff came in, set up, and made some of the most memorable and delicious food we have ever had. Nisha's energy is something you would love to have at a wedding after everything is done - you can truly taste the love in the food. We were blown away by the quality of their work and the value they provided. We cannot recommend Loaded By Nisha enough for your wedding or event.

    Beyond Basil Mobile Pizzeria 

    5.0

    • Starts at $1,250
    • Serves Tempe, AZ

    Our story began in New York City where we met. I (Brooklynn) was working as a culinary intern and my husband was finishing up his last year of school. We were constantly inspired by the different cuisines and flavors the city had to offer. So inspired, in fact, that when we moved to Arizona we were determined to bring with us our favorite staple from the city- pizza! We got creative, thought outside the box, and came up with a unique platform to make our pizzas. We took an old horse trailer and transformed it into a beautiful mobile pizzeria. Our philosophy on pizza is simple: authentic Italian ingredients served with elegance and grace.

    We are so so happy we hired Beyond Basil for our outdoor wedding this November! Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how they loved all the food! During our social hour, we served the salami board, veggies and hummus, and a couple appetizer options. Trust me, your guests will thank you for this later…Then did a variety of pizza and salad options for dinner. They were professional, easy to communicate with, and provided exceptional service on the day of the wedding. You won’t regret hiring them for any event!

    Culinary Concepts catered an amazing brunch the day after our wedding in my mother-in-law’s home.

All of the food was delicious, but the Cinnamon French Toast Bread Pudding was the talk of the party. I asked for the recipe and owner/chef Wendy was happy to share it. I would recommend their services to anyone, for any type of party!

    "Literally The Best Wedding Food I've Ever Had." -Guest at our wedding If you are even thinking about booking Americano for your wedding, stop thinking and DO IT. Hiring them was single-handedly the best decision we made in our entire wedding planning process. We knew we wanted our food to be a highlight, not an afterthought, and the Americano team delivered a culinary experience that was beyond our wildest dreams. Our guests are still raving about it weeks later! From our very first inquiry, their catering manager (Beni) and team were an absolute dream to work with. They were responsive, incredibly organized, and genuinely excited about creating a menu that felt personal to us. They took our vision and elevated it with creative ideas, turning the tasting into one of our favorite pre-wedding memories. They made the entire process feel completely seamless and stress-free. Now, let's talk about the food on the wedding day. Show-stopping. We had the burrata with prosciutto and fig jam for a starter, and people were losing their minds over how fresh and flavorful it was. For mains, the slow-braised short rib literally melted in your mouth, and the sea bass was cooked to absolute perfection. It wasn't just "good wedding food"—it was exceptional food, period. The presentation was stunning, the ingredients were top-tier, and everything was served hot and flawlessly. Multiple guests—including our pickiest family members—pulled us aside to say it was the most delicious and memorable meal they had ever had at a wedding. Americano didn't just cater our wedding; they created an unforgettable experience that became a core memory of our celebration. They are worth every single penny and then some for the impact they will have on your day. Book them. You will be so, so happy you did!

    • Starts at $3,000
    • Serves Tempe, AZ for additional fees

    Welcome. Chef Jason started out in the kitchen at 15 years old as a dishwasher at Red Lobster washing dishes and baking. From there, he worked many cook’s lines until I earned my first chef position under Emeril Lagasse over ten years ago. He's went on to operating casino kitchens, private dining clubs. Since relocating from Atlanta, GA Jason has gained experience in kitchen consulting and new restaurant openings. After 25 years in the industry, He is now starting a new journey into the Private Chef sector. He refers to his style of cooking as Southern Creole cooking, where it’s much more than cooking…it’s about the overall experience.

    The Crain Experience was so amazing and easy to work with! Anytime I had questions they were so quick to get back to me. The food was delicious, the drinks were phenomenal, and the staff/bartenders were easygoing, professional, and personable. I could not recommend them more!
