We hired Black Apron Cuisine to cater our wedding on April 1, 2017 and we could not have been happier!
After attending a few wedding shows and meeting with a number of caterers, we were starting to feel a little lost. With the others, all of our discussions started with "pick one item from column A and 2 items from column B". When we first met Juan Luis and Stephen we were at a loss for words. The conversation started with questions like "what do you like to eat?" "what are your favourite foods?" "what foods to you dislike?" They worked with us to create a menu and ran with it.
Not only were they great with our normal menu, they created dishes for all of our guests with dietary restrictions (vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, lactose, etc) with multiple options for each. Our guests were blown away as usually it is down to one bland meal for anyone that is different.
On site on the day couldn't have gone smoother. Their staff looked after our entire wedding and were very professional and courteous. For a wedding of 140 it still felt like an intimate affair. Even a week later I am still hearing from our friends about the food (and the balsamic emulsion salad dressing) :)
My wife and I cannot speak highly enough about Black Apron and we would recommend them to anyone for anything. We are even now looking at them for some catering for work functions.
If you are ever looking for someone to cater any event or function, these are the...
Read moreAug 12, 2024: From my first unforgettable encounter with The Black Apron to countless lunch meetings and a recent evening event for a group of discerning professionals, I am left utterly speechless by the unmatched excellence of Juan and Steve. Their culinary artistry, combined with a deep-seated passion for hospitality, has elevated every experience to a level beyond mere satisfaction.
Their promise to "bring your palate happiness... satisfaction... bliss" is not just a vision—it's a guarantee. The evening they catered at my home was nothing short of extraordinary, where every detail was meticulously crafted to achieve absolute perfection.
Juan and Steve, along with Luca, delivered an experience that exceeded all expectations, leaving an indelible mark on both myself and my guests. Their dedication, talent, and kindness have set a new standard in catering. Thank you for turning my wishes into a reality and for creating memories that will be cherished forever.

Read moreBlack Apron food is fresh, flavourful, delicious! We eat lunch regularly at their restaurant and are always pleased with their outstanding food, the staff and the service! So, of course, we had to have them cater our daughter’s outside BBQ/Wedding reception for 50 people, a few weeks ago. Juan and Steve were so helpful in suggesting menu ideas and answering my constant questions. We are so pleased with how the day went. We and our guests raved about how delicious the food was, and guests even went back for seconds. As hosts, we could relax knowing that Juan and his service staff were ensuring everything was being taken care of from setup, service, and clean up. The food was hot, delicious, a perfect menu of beef on a bun, chicken thighs, several choices of salad, corn on the cob, and potato salad, great for a summer outside event. Juan and his team were professional, prompt, and friendly. Our guests also gave high praise for how friendly the staff was. Even when we had the venue change at the last moment, and were panicked, Juan was so calm and flexible. I would highly recommend their restaurant and the catering services to everyone. The experience...
