The Bronx Gourmet

I contacted The Bronx Gourmet - Chef Neomi at what I thought was surely the last minute. We had a scheduling conflict with our initial caterer, and were desperate to find a replacement. Chef Neomi answered my email immediately and confirmed her availability. Our budget was relatively small and the turnaround was short. She came though with a budget-friendly menu and we were set! The food was savory, hot, and delicious. She was prompt, courteous, professional and even made sure we set the buffet warmers as to not burn any food. I hope we find ourselves celebrating in the Chesapeake area again soon. I will not hesitate to reach out to Chef Neomi and her staff for the next event!

I was fortunate to hire Chef Noemi of the Bronx Gourmet in a pinch. She not only responded timely with a "yes I can" demeanor, she indulged me in my special menu request. I personally met her at the event site and she was friendly and courteous. The food display was stylish and the food itself was tasty. Noemi stayed with us throughout the day and cleaned up afterwards. I really appreciate the level and quality of service that she and her staff provided.

Unprofessional and somewhat creepy . I have been contacting many caterers in search for the right one that fits the budget and preferred menu . The Bronx gourmet happened to be one of the place on my list to contact. I have contacted Ms. Naomi through email giving information and my contact hoping she can fit need . She agreed to fit need and to the tasting . She asked me to call her, and I told her I would but it slipped my mind . However, she made sure to remind me by stating in an email " you can call me tomorrow" now I took it some type of way seeing she emailed me late at night saying that and I didn't mean not to call her but I let it go . I called her earlier today and she must have been sick cause I heard sniffling and the sort . But I wasn't going to hold that over her head the cold weather out it happens to everyone . However , when asking her about details in the different menu and mock-tails I was interested in it seem as if it irritated her and she seemed confused as if she couldn't do it . Also the tasting was $250 o thought that was pretty high especially since the tasting would be at her house . Nothing necessarily wrong except it may be alittle more professional to have it somewhere . She proceeded after the calm to send PayPal invoice which is fine and we set a pending tasting date in December . However she had just sent it and text my phone asking if I got the invoice . And I kindly assured her that I'll have my family look over it and we will live forward . She proceeds to text me she doesn't understand and didn't we already set a date . At that point with all the other red flags between here and there that's not in this review I decided to just block her on my phone and forget about the caterer . She made sure to send the invoice that she had canceled . Wow what an experience they always seem to happen to me lol

Working with Chef Noemi for our daughter's wedding was absolutely the best experience! She was on time and the food was excellent with many compliments from our guests. It was a stress reliever having her from beginning to end.

Stay away, Miss Noemi Gonzalez in my opinion lacks the moral compass to run any sort of small business. Attempts to take advantage of her clients/customers. Not to be trusted.
