Cuisine Chez Vous

Cuisine Chez Vous exceeded all expectations in their work for our wedding. The food was creative and of the highest quality. Nora and Laurie were kind and patient during the planning process. Our group had several special food related needs which we asked to be accommodated, including wanting a buffet menu which could work for vegetarians, carnivores, gluten free eaters, and people with certain different food allergies. Cuisine Chez Vous came up with a menu that offered ample deliciousness for everyone. The waitstaff on the night of the wedding was terrific-​my husband and I felt very tended to. They created a cake to top all cakes… a beautiful three layered/​three different incredible flavors cake (vanilla with lemon curd and raspberry/​chocolate with ganache/​and carrot). Besides that cake, they served a small gluten free cake, and had dairy-​free cupcakes… we heard rave reviews about everything! They also coordinated décor, flowers, lighting, tables, linens and the bar. I cannot praise them, or thank them, enough.

There is a reason this company has such high ratings. After shopping around for various caterers for our wedding this past summer, and finding that most of the cost estimates were right around the same pricing, I decided to go with the company with the best reviews and best website. Right from the beginning, I felt that Walter Davis was extremely knowledgeable, professional, detail-​oriented, and fun and easy to work with. We had a smaller wedding, around 60 people, at Habitat in Belmont. We tried to keep things low key and were not too picky about things, so we really appreciated the guidance that Walter, Anna, and Fiona gave us in planning the wedding. I felt very confident through the whole process that we were in good hands and that everything was going to be taken care of by the Cuisine Chez Vous team. Not just the food, but they handled the entire schedule for the day, the timing of what would take place and when, so that my now husband and I could just relax and enjoy the day.
The food was really excellent, top quality. We really enjoyed the tasting and picking out the hor d’oeuvres and entrees. The guests were all impressed and commented how much the enjoyed the food. We especially loved the wedding cake. We were initially going to go with the chocolate, but after going to the tasting, we chose the vanilla cake with lemon curd and raspberry. Probably the best cake we have ever had, and people were still taking about it for weeks afterwards!
The folks Cuisine Chez Vous are really great people. It’s a great business, and I was very impressed and happy with how the whole day went. I would hire them again in a heartbeat if I ever needed catering for another function.

Business Function — Oh how my words are gonna fail me in this review: Cuisine Chez Vous was incredible. I had a dinner party for 20 in home and every along the way was perfect. Anna was on top of every detail anticipating all and overlooking nothing. The food got rave reviews from my guests — with the Beef Wellington standing out especially. Wow. I am thinking of excuses so we can have them back. We went 100 percent finger foods including the desserts. The smoores… Nuke them in the microwave and they’re insanely decadent.

Cuisine Chez Vous helped us through the wedding planning process and accommodate to our different needs. We had one of the most wonderful day of our lives thanks to this great partner. We specially appreciate Anna for her exceptional attention to detail and professionalism. Everything went perfectly and smoothly and cannot be better. More importantly, Anna is so nice and pleasant to be around we felt as if she was part of the bridal party.

Walter and his team at Cuisine Chez Vous were the absolute catering DREAM team! We got married in a pretty DIY venue and shopped around for a caterer that would be full service and ensure that all the details from the rentals, to the set-​up, to the timeline were taken care of. Not only was the wedding day executed flawlessly with spectacular food for 200 people, but Walter made the wedding planning process easy. He was always available, and would double as a therapist during my more anxious moments. Down to the last detail, Walter and his staff are true professionals. My fiancé and I and our entire families cannot thank the team at Cuisine Chez Vous for allowing us to relax and enjoy the wedding knowing that we were in good hands!

I selected Cuisine Chez Vous to cater our wedding at the Lyman Estate on this past Friday, and I would absolutely work with them again. Walter was extremely responsive and met all of our requests throughout the planning process, including respecting our budget, which was very important to us. Anna and Walter were both a pleasure to work with in the days leading up to the wedding, accommodating our last-​minute changes without complaint.
We were very impressed with their attention to detail on the day of — they waited to serve the entrees for my husband and me until they knew we were back at our table, and Anna checked in with us later to make sure everything was going well. Also, my side of the family (including me) has a major sweet tooth, and everyone LOVED the wedding cake (butter pecan!). I am enjoying eating the leftovers this week, and we also froze some for next year. They nailed the frosting decoration that I had selected as well.
We received TONS of compliments on the food from our guests. Everything went off without a hitch.

Cuisine Chez Vous made our wedding perfect. Walter was responsive throughout the planning period and really made us feel at ease. During the wedding itself, Anna and Fiona were phenomenal. We received numerous compliments from our guests regarding the waitstaff, and our toastmasters were very pleased with Anna’s professionalism. Here are a few examples of how CCV went above and beyond:
— When the weather turned out to be warmer than expected, CCV took charge and called our tent provider to have them take down some of the tent walls.
— When we did the cake cutting, and we realized that neither of us knew what we were supposed to do, Anna was right there and ready to give us guidance.
— After the event, the CCV staff took down several sets of decorations that we had brought ourselves, even though they weren’t responsible for them.
— The staff brought out a plate of hors d’oeuvres just for the two of us as they knew we would be busy. Sadly, we still didn’t take the time to eat them all, but that’s no-one’s fault but our own!
Let us also mention that the food is truly delicious! We highly recommend the brie pear and almond flower (pastry puff) and the portobello Wellington with sherry coulis.

Cuisine Chez Vous catered a business dinner for 18 at our house last evening. Wonderful experience working with Fiona to develop a menu that met our needs (both vegetarian and GF options for each course, could be eaten with a fork while standing holding a plate and glass of wine, etc). The chef and servers were great – friendly and professional. Setup was smooth, the display elegant, the servers friendly and helpful. Everyone raved about the quality of the food, regardless of what they had. Cleanup was spotless, and leftovers left neatly packaged in the fridge. We recommend them without reservation!

Walter and Cuisine Chez Vous rock. Excellent food, great presentation, attention to detail. This is a reputable caterer and a pleasure to deal with.

I can not speak highly enough about cuisine chez vous. They catered our wedding of 35 people at our house and we were thrilled with quality of the food and the service of the staff. Almost every person at the party raved about the food. My wife and I would definitely use them again for any future events and several guests asked for CCV contact info. There was a Nor’easter on the night of our party and they showed up on time and did not miss a beat. They greeted guest, took coats and cleaned up afterwards. The food was the exact same quality as the tasting.
We worked with Nora prior to our wedding and Shiva on the day of and both were outstanding. Thank you so much for making our wedding day so special.

Cuisine Chez Vous catered our wedding at the Lyman Estate this past August. From the moment we started planning, Walter was extremely responsive, knowledgeable, and thorough. My mom handled most of the correspondence with him and she was so impressed with how he followed up with us in such an appropriate manner and with such perfect timing to keep us on track to make our decision.
When we went for our tasting there was no question about whether or not we would choose to work with CCV. The food and cake were absolutely delicious and we felt completely taken care of, knowing we would be in good hands for the wedding. Their experience and professionalism made them not only a resource for food related questions but also questions related to a number of other wedding details.
Toward the end of the planning process when we were finalizing all of the details, Walter, Nora and Shiva were extremely patient with us as we entertained various add ons such as specialty cocktails, late night grilled cheese sandwiches or ice cream (in August!) and very graciously steered us in the right direction so we ended up with exactly what we wanted and what made sense for our budget.
For dinner we started with a summery salad with strawberries and goat cheese and for the entrée we offered the option of halibut with a lemon caper sauce, beef tenderloin with a port wine reduction, or saffron and wild mushroom risotto. Every single guest I spoke with said how delicious the food was… «The beef was so tender I cut it with my fork» and «I actually licked my plate clean.»
During the wedding Shiva, was very attentive and kept everything on track while maintaining an extremely calm and composed demeanor. The food came out quickly and efficiently and it seemed like all of the tables were served at the same time. She made sure we took time to eat and enjoy dinner in between mingling with all of our guests. I also did have a chance to have a few bites of cake and it was just as wonderful as I remembered during the tasting.
One of the things that was really important to me was that the reception flowed smoothly without long toasts and first dances and waits during dinner and CCV kept everything flowing flawlessly so the energy stayed high from the moment everyone walked into the tent until the last song.
It was so much fun to work with Cuisine Chez Vous we wish we could do it all over again — we will have to plan an anniversary party!

Cuisine Chez Vous catered a 60 person party celebrating our wedding anniversary, and it was executed flawlessly. The staff were extraordinarily professional and attentive, attending to the smallest detail both in planning and execution of our party. When a rainstorm hit just as the party began, for instance, staff members appeared with umbrellas to escort guests to our tent.
Easily half the guests raved about the food (need I say more?), and as many asked for the caterer’s name. The bartender remembered drink orders and preferences, and the staff recalled names. Cuisine Chez Vous is unparalleled. After this stellar experience, I will not consider any other caterer.

Cuisine Chez Vous catered our wedding at CAMC in Cambridge, MA the end of April 2014 and they were amazing, their food is delicious and reasonably priced, they handled everything from beginning to end.
Shiva was our Wedding Reception day of coordinator and she was so wonderful. She handled everything with a smile. Walter, Shiva and the rest of the onsite staff were all friendly and professional. Our guests spoke highly of the food during and after the wedding. Kudos to the entire staff: bartenders, wait staff and of course all the people who created the most amazing food. Kudos to the entire staff: bartenders, wait staff and of course all the people who created the most amazing food!
Email and phone communication was always quick, very courteous, and informative. Walter was always friendly and answered all of our questions promptly. Walter made us feel comfortable from the very beginning, and we enjoyed the tastings. He is really good at managing people, and was easy to talk to about our wedding decisions and changes, he even put up with my many spreadsheet revisions I provided, which must of driven Walter crazy, god bless you Walter. lol

The Cuisine Chez Vous team is amazing! I’m a non-​profit event planner in Boston and have worked with many catering companies through the years and they are tops on my list. The food is excellent and affordable, and they are always willing to have an honest budget conversation while working with me to still deliver a great, special event. Walter is awesome! The on-​site staff are friendly and professional, and they are always one step ahead in anticipating our needs! They really go above and beyond to make sure that everything runs smoothly from start to finish. I’m grateful for all they do – they make my job that much easier! Thank you, Cuisine Chez Vous!

Our wedding this past May was so beautiful and organized, and the staff of Cuisine Chez Vous was the driving force behind our wonderful day. They are so meticulous and professional, that you have nothing to worry about on your wedding day. Nora was our contact, and from the first day that we met with her, she took care of all of our questions, needs, and also offered many useful tips. The rest of the staff at our wedding were so polite and seemed genuinely happy to be there.
The food was AMAZING. Our guests spoke so highly of the food during and after the wedding. Nora worked so hard to help us create our dream menu within our budget. We couldn’t be any happier with our choice to hire Cuisine Chez Vous for our wedding.

Cuisine Chez Vous catered our wedding this past weekend and they did a fantastic job. The food was good, reasonably priced, they handled everything from beginning to end, and were timely.
The biggest factor in my decision choosing them over several other caters were that they offered a wedding coordinator. Our coordinator was Weiwei and she was amazing. She was very professional, handled all the details, very nice and she made CCV stand out (in a behind the scenes kind of way). I basically planned my wedding very quickly and Weiwei saw my vision, from decorations to timeline and made the day come true. If you can get Weiwei as a coordinator, you are very lucky!
The food was delicious (try the raspberry macaroon cake) and the service was professional, but if you want a caterer that makes the day go by stress free, handling all the little details, then I would highly consider CCV.
Great job CCV and thank you for making our day special!

Cuisine Chez Vous catered our wedding and were nothing short of spectacular from beginning to end. Stellar experience. Walter made us feel comfortable and welcome from the very beginning, and we had a great time at the tastings. He is really good at managing people, and is so easy to talk to about your decisions for the wedding. He feels like a pal.
The whole team is incredibly well organized and won’t leave you hanging at that point where you feel like you’re losing your mind to wedding planning. Nora and Cristina were so great on the day of our wedding… a perfect combination of relaxed, funny, and super organized and on top of everything.
The food was seriously one of the most delicious meals I’ve ever had. My only regret is that we had to stop eating to listen to the toasts. If I’d been in private, I would have licked the plate (not considered seemly for a bride, right?). Our wedding cake was beautiful, the service went off without a hitch… I really can’t recommend CCV highly enough. So glad we chose them.

By far the greatest catering experience I’ve ever had! Chez Vous totally went above and beyond everything we expected for our wedding! We were really picky about our food (my husband being a chef and all) and they pulled off awesome vegan items for us — including the cake!
The service was excellent — not a glass left on the table and they were very attentive to our older guests making sure they were comfortable and had everything they needed. Walter, Nora and Christina made this day perfect for me! Thank you all so much!

Chez Vous catered our June 2011 wedding — We absolutely LOVED them! Honestly, they were amazing. They were all so nice to work with and were on top of things the day of the wedding. (Extra thanks to Walter and Michelle)
Based on our research, they seemed to offer a higher level of service than others, at a very reasonable rate compared to others. The food was awesome, everyone loved it — even down to the cake. The table/​bar service was impeccable, everyone kept commenting on how attentive all the servers were.
Our package included so much that was needed that day — it really saved us so much time having to deal with multiple vendors. They took care of all the dining tables, chairs, all flatware/​plates/​glasses, linens. just about everything we needed, they handled the logistics of it.
Highly recommended!

Cuisine Chez Vous catered my wedding on 6÷5÷10 and the experience was just fabulous!
Walter, Michelle, Fiona, and gang were all amazing! From our initial meeting to the final event, everything was perfect! The food was amazing and not at all like some of the wedding fare I’ve had in the past. The food during our tasting was delicious and it was replicated exactly on our big day for about 200 guests. Definitely what a starving bride ordered :) Between the mini burgers Stilton jam, Parmesan crusted artichokes, prosciutto wrapped mozzarella, Carolina BBQ on a cornmeal cracker and ALL of our wonderful entrees (including a Gorgonzola stuffed chicken that was out of this world) I was definitely testing the limits of the strength of my corset!
Walter was great to deal with throughout the process and I can’t begin to describe how impressed I was at how Michelle and Walter paid attention to every detail I described for the big day. I had spent nearly 16 months preparing every detail and to leave it in someone else’s hands for my wedding day was a difficult task. The reception hall, tables, candy bar etc. looked exactly like how I envisioned and I couldn’t have been happier. They did an absolutely fantastic job.
They also did a great job in dealing with a couple of wedding related hiccups, including our earlier than expected arrival to the wedding reception and the thunderstorms during our outdoor cocktail hour. The transition and how they dealt with everything was smooth and professional. EVERYTHING was taken care of.
Fiona did a great job with the cake design and from going off just a few internet pictures of what I desired she hit the spot! The cake flavors were delicious and the design beautiful.
In terms of cost, I met with 3 other caterers in the Boston and metro-​west area and all were very similar in pricing, rental costs, etc. There wasn’t anything that seemed out of line and they were very willing to work with me on the budget and food items were requested. Of course no good caterer is cheap and Chez Vous was a hit to the pocketbook, but it was expected and a very worthwhile expense.
All in all just a fabulous experience with great, friendly, professional employees, fantastic food, an eye for detail, and genuine care towards your event. The day couldn’t have turned out better
