Maria,

Thank you so much for catering our December luncheon. The service we received was exceptional and the food was fantastic. Everything was delivered on time and hot. There was plenty of food to feed our hungry crew of mostly guys. We even have leftovers for a mini lunch today. By far, this is the best food we have had catered in at the most reasonable price.

We look forward to using Maravela's again in the future.

Maria I just wanted to send a special thanks for all the hard work you and your crew did for us. We were extremely happy with everything!!! The food was amazing and everything was beautifully set up. Our host Mary Alice was a pleasure to work with. She always checked if we needed anything and to make sure everything was ok. What ever we needed she made sure we had it. There was superb customer service given. We had a great experience there. I felt so relaxed and never had a thing to worry about. It was all taken care of. Thank You for everything!!!!

Sincerely,
Vicky DeBenedetto

Maria,

WOW!! What a beautiful job you and your staff did!! You need to know how many, many, many complements we received.

I wish I could remember ALL the wonderful comments we did receive about our wedding reception. How beautiful, elegant, perfect it all was. Everything was set up perfectly, beautifully. I know you went above and beyond by even getting all the table decorations on the tables in the ‘rain’. I was very nervous in the morning, but it ALL WORKED OUT BEAUTIFULLY.. the cake, the servers, the food, ( EVERYONE commented on how good the food was). I even had the DJ tell us that he had been to a very expensive wedding reception dinner at some Marriott and our (YOUR) food was better!!

Your servers were excellent, polite, efficient, top notch all the way. Carol, our bartender, AWESOME.. l loved her!!!

THANK YOU MARIA!! You are a treasure!

Hello Maria and Char,

I just wanted to thank you for making Andy and Jenny\'s wedding everything you promised it would be.
From the ceremony to the dance floor, from the soup to the dessert, every person there raved about the way the room looked, the organization of the reception, and the outstanding steak dinner!!
I know we did not start planning this wedding for 200 until Feb of 2009, but with your help, everything went smoothly and looked as if we had been planning for years.
Again, you helped Andy and Jenny have a storybook wedding that they and the guests will never forget.

Mari Carlson,
Mother of the Groom

I had to write to tell you how tremendous the weekend was thanks to you. Absolutely every part of the 3 day weekend you were in charge of exceeded my expectations - and I had high ones. I can't thank you enough for making these 4 events so perfect. Each one was exactly what I had hoped it would be. Please know that I will use you every time I need catering assistance and that I am happy to serve as a reference should you ever need one. I have already given your card to two friends who want to book you for their kids Bar Mitzvahs. Thank you, thank you. Stacy

Thank you very much for helping the Antioch Fire Department make a very sad occasion less stressful.
From the time that we called you to order the funeral luncheon to the time that your server left the luncheon, we knew that everything would turn out wonderful. The food was delicious as always and your service was excellent.
Thank you again for everything.
Sincerely,

Thank you for the excellent food you prepared for our Mexican Fiesta. We had plenty of food! Your driver was polite and very helpful and, most importantly, on time.

We look forward to using your catering again in the future. We have a December luncheon every year and are considering Maravella's for our catering. I will look at the information on your website but if you have any other information, please send it to me so I can review it.

Once again, thank you!

The room looked so lovely with all of the spring colors. Napkins in glasses made a Lit. different and colorful.

Hi Maria,

Fantastic, marvelous, wonderful, delicious - those were just some of the comments made by the people attending our luncheon.

I'm not sure what I appreciate more - the quality of the food or the quality of the service. You do an outstanding job on both.

The young man that does the delivery is so helpful - putting the warm food in the ovens, and the cold food on the serving tables, and he goes over every single item on the bill before he leaves.

It has really been a pleasure doing business with you. Someone else will be in charge of the luncheon next year, but I will strongly recommend that they continue to do business with your company.

Thanks once again for everything. You made my job so easy.

Hi Maria!
I wanted to drop you a note to tell you how WONDERFUL the catering service was for my wedding. It was superb! From the food, to the dessert bar, and to the waitstaff...everything was top notch.

Patrick was a wonderful captain and many, many people at my wedding said how great the service and food was...the set-up of the buffet was fantastic too and beautiful.

Working with you was such a pleasant experience during a very stressful time. You covered everything...even things I didn't think of! An off-site reception for 350 poeple is no easy task...but you made me feel it was the easiest thing in the world. I am very grateful Maria.

Please pass my thanks on to the cooks and everyone who wasn't able to see all their hard work come to fruition at the reception.

Thank you,
Amy Maher, Dennis & Rae Lynn Knight
