TESTIMONIALS

Thank you for everything you both did this past weekend for me and Matt to make our wedding weekend absolutely perfect!! Everything was a dream and you two made it run flawlessly! We appreciate the endless attention and hard work you both put in. Thank you again!!

Matt Groom Scottish Rite Cathedral October 6, 2020

We had nervous guests who were at other weddings this month where the catering teams took little to no precautions, and we received constant praise about the efforts you made. Not only that but the food and drinks were FANTASTIC!

Jessica Bride Scottish Rite Cathedral October 5, 2020

The event was originally planned for April, but the Covid-19 pandemic forced us to move the party back to May. Kahn’s came up with a new plan that allowed us to stay safe and socially distant. The Kahn’s team wore masks and gloves and served the guests in the safest possible way, while still having an amazing meal and incredible service. They were very professional about the entire evening; the food was delicious and the service was amazing.
