A Review From a Catering Guest

Hi Justen,

I just wanted to take a moment to let you know how happy the family was with Jack's Catering for my Dad's celebration of Life on November 7 at the Lions Club. The food was delicious!! Everyone was raving about how the chicken was moist and tasty and the tri-tip was a perfect medium rare. It was comforting to know we didn't need to worry about the setup or cleanup. The staff was professional and pleasant. I would highly recommend you to friends and family and I'm sure the next event we will be using your service again.

Thanks so much,
Teresa Stribling
