Mai Oui! Gourmet

My husband and I could not be more pleased with the catering Mai Oui provided for our wedding. We chose a venue that did not have a kitchen and was much more challenging for a caterer serving dinner to 200 people but they seemed to do it without any problems. Karen was a pleasure to work with and was very accommodating. We received many compliments on the food and even had guests notice how beautiful they decorated their tables to match our decor. I would recommend Mai Oui to anyone!

Mai Oui provided great service in a unique and challenging venue on the day of the wedding!! We got plenty of compliments on the food from the wedding! (Unfortunately I really didn't get to eat much but what I had was awesome!!) They also provided much more than catering by helping with planning, tables, chairs, linens, centerpieces, bar service, ceremony decor, etc. We had several visits to make sure everything went smoothly. Our whole day went off without a hiccup! Mai Oui also had great relations with the other vendors we used. My husband and I are extremely particular and Mai Oui exceeded our expectations!

These people were great to work with. They made sure everything was taken care of before the day of. The food is delicious and there are lots of menu items to choose from. They work hard to make everything coordinate and be exactly what you want. I loved working with Karen and Chrissy and their whole team.

My husband and I just absolutely loved everything about Mai Oui. They were extremely flexible and open to our suggestions when it came to changing some things about the food we picked out to better suit our (and the majority of the guests') liking. They stuck to our budget and always asked us if it was if it was okay before any changes were made to the menu and to the amount of food needed. It was also very warming to have met and worked with Karen personally to make sure everything was set! The food was just as I had imagined it to be, perfect!

Karen and her team at Mai Oui! catered my October 1st wedding and we couldn't have been more satisfied. We wanted to have good food that people enjoyed and Mai Oui! delivered. It was great to hear guests talk about the food even several weeks after the wedding. Karen is personable and fun to work with. I highly recommend them. You won't be disappointed.

Our best vendor!!! From our first meeting with the Mai Oui team up until the wedding day, Karen, Jeff, and the gang have bent over backwards for us to ensure that our wedding was everything we hoped it would be. And it was thanks to them! It was slightly difficult to choose a menu, because their menu choices were so vast and flexible for all budgets and tastes! But they helped us focus to choose a menu that would satisfy us and all of our guests with the special food preferences everyone had. They even helped us plan aspects of the wedding that were not related to the catering – they ensured that their services would complement the entire event. And Mai Oui provides their own florals and décor for the food & beverage stations. Everything was fantastic and they worked closely with me to ensure that their décor would complement the other florals and décor provided by the florist. Finally, the catering staff at the event was extraordinary! Very professional! I would highly recommend Mai Oui Gourmet to anyone that is planning a wedding. And I will definitely be using them for any other event that I may have in the future! Thanks, guys!

Mai Oui is a brilliant catering service. The food is amazing! We had so many compliments on how wonderful the food was and how beautifully it was done. The tuna is still being talked about a month after the wedding. If you want flavor explosion, aesthetically pleasing food, and top rate service this is who you have to use. They really stood our from other caterers with their creative and unique style. Thank you so much for being a part of our day!

Mai Oui was the talk of the night. Everyone loved the food and unique options that were offered. Even the kids loved the lamb burgers (as long a we didn't tell them it was lamb!). Their flexibilty was fantastic as specifics changed through the months of planning. I never felt like a burden or that I couldn't ask questions, which gave them big bonus points from my perspective. I truly appreciated all their help and attention to detail. They came recommended to me and I would recommend them again and again. Thank you!!

Mai Oui was amazing! The food was really good but what really put them over the top was the amazing service. They feel so invested in making sure that your wedding is everything you want it to be. The whole staff is kind and reassuring and they have wonderful little touches that make you feel like they are family taking care of you. Use hem for your wedding and you will be very happy with that decision! (Plus there prices are incredibly reasonable)

When my daughter got engaged, we knew Mai Oui Gourmet was the only caterer we wanted. My daughter would have changed her wedding date to ensure we Had Karen taking care of everthing. In fact she's the first person we called. She handled everything...perfectly. And the food was amazing.

Mai Oui was great, I could not have asked for a better caterer!

Mai Oui Gourmet, Thank you for the exquisite food at our reception. Everything was so mouth watering. Very talented. We highly recommend Mai Oui for any occasion.

Mai Oui! gourment went above and beyond for our wedding March 5th, 2011! They were very professional at everything they did! I loved all their big and little ideas and they really made our dream fit into our budget! I couldn't have expected anything more! They were amazing!

Karen did more than provide a service the night of the wedding. She checked on me to see if I was alright. It was an out of town night wedding for us and she took care of small details we did not discuss. The food was delicious and her staff during the reception was excellent. The young adult servers were professional and discreet. In the planning stage I asked for her opinion and she always gave it but stressed she would do what we requested. Mother of the Bride

If you are lucky enough to have Karen and Pat cater your wedding or any affair, then you can rest assured that it will be perfect. Mai Oui thinks of every detail that you won't think of, then they go into action. I have spent the last 12 months working with both of these incredible women. They are very classy and create an incredible atmosphere. The presentation of every morsel of food was beyond my every expectation. There is no NY caterer that I know of that could have done a better job then my two favorite Jacksonville ladies. You should feel free to allow them to create a menu that will certainly please everyones palette. All of our friends and family are still talking about the food that they were so happily eating at our daughters wedding on 10/10/10. Thank you sooooo much, Karen and Pat. We would not have been able to do it without your expertise.

Mai Oui was the glue for my wedding. The staff went out of their way in every way to please me and make my wedding everything I wanted it to be. I would recommend them to anyone for any occasion. You will not find anyone to better serve your party.

Using Mai Oui! Gourmet was the best decision we made! Karen and Nikki were absolutely amazing and I can't imagine what we would've done without them!! The menu and decor they planned was above and beyond anything expected; they truly captured our theme and brought it to life. The menu was well thought out...perfect, actually...and the food was absolutely phenominal. Presentation was top-notch and one of our favorite aspects of Mai Oui. Throughout our day, we had several guests comment on both the food and the courtesy/professionalism of the staff. Our guests were just as impressed as we were. Karen was tremendously helpful with planning the layout of the reception. Mai Oui! Gourmet also took care of our rentals and the bar service for a hassle-free and wonderful day. Their suggestions were amazing and I think we used them all! Karen and Nikki were very responsive with all our last minute questions and concerns and kept us updated throughout the planning process. We were truly amazed and grateful for everything they did for us and HIGHLY recommend them for any and all catering needs.

FANTASTIC!!!! The best decision we made in our wedding planning was working with Mai Oui. The food was incredible, looked good, and her staff was awesome! Karen was like having a caterer and wedding planner all in one. Karen made multiple site visits to our venue, always kept us informed and is super responsive. We are confident that because of our choice, we truly had the wedding of our dreams! We would recommend her to anyone! Shannon & Brian McClure

What to say about Mai Oui! Gourmet?........They are AMAZING!! Karen played such a vital role in making our day so special, she even stepped in as "wedding coordinator" when needed at the reception. Everyone raved about the food, especially the presentation and professionalism that Karen and her staff portrayed. Karen is a true delight to work with and she will forever have our support. We LOVE Mai Oui! Christopher & Stephanie Tomberlin

We had a large rehearsal dinner and the feedback/comments from our guests were fantastic. The presentation of food was stunning. All of our guest were commenting on the beautiful presentation and the exquisite taste of the food. The owners reasonable pricing, personal touch & efficiency took all the worries and stress away and made the event perfect.
