I'll just start by saying I HIGHLY recommend Design Cuisine for any and all events that you are hosting. I was new to a role within my company and had the benefit of getting to work with Design Cuisine on one of our historical events and they did not disappoint. From the sales team to the logistics team to the details on-site, they think of it all. They are incredibly professional, friendly, easy to work with, budget-conscious, and detail oriented aka an event planners dream. Erin & Tierney in particular were huge helps and ensure the highest quality on anything and everything. On-site, Cesar and Oscar were amazing! I loved working with them all in 2018 and look forward to working with them again in 2019!
The food was absolutely fabulous. Many guests remarked that it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding--particularly the appetizers. There was, however, room for improvement. Little things that we were really excited about fell by the wayside. For example, we spent a long time naming our signature drinks, and then the signage put out on our wedding day ended up being the caterer's generic drink titles, like "Flower Power." The main thing that bothered me was I never felt like I was a priority. Design Cuisine took over as the exclusive caterer for our venue midway through our wedding planning process, and I can imagine it must have been overwhelming and stressful for them to inherit so many weddings at once. That said, I often felt like I had to send multiple emails and be persistent with phone calls, as well as repeat my preferences and decisions multiple times, as if they had just gotten lost along the way. The thing that frustrated me most was that our original caterer had told us they could arrange for a secondary tent to be installed on the lawn for the ceremony in the event of rain and, in fact, it did rain on our wedding day. I asked Design Cuisine for a quote for this tent as soon as we found out, in February, they were our new caterers. After asking over and over again, I only got a quote one week before our June wedding, and the price was really high. By that point it was too late to shop around for tent vendors on our own. That was super disappointing. Overall, the food and drink were outstanding, but it was upsetting to feel like we were just another customer on a long list. No one from Design Cuisine even contacted us after our wedding to ask how everything went or to congratulate us.
We used Design Cuisine for an in-home party and give them a 100% A+ rating. From first contact to final clean-up, the entire experience with Design Cuisine was fantastic. Kevin and Kristin did an excellent job in helping with the lay-out and flow; Cesar was our on-site captain on the night of the party. It was a total pleasure to work with everyone; the food was creative, delicious and memorable; every idea they gave us and the details were perfect; the service was great. During the planning, Kevin conveyed calm and confidence that Design Cuisine would make our party a success and he was correct!
A toxic group of people and environment. Your merit does not take you no where, unless you buddy with them. Food ‘okay’, you don’t get the credit for anything. I do not think they know these two words: please and thank you. They need to learn basic communication
Always shows up as Design Cuisine but really just visiting friends in Shirlington
