Recently planned an event with The Hearty Boys and have nothing but great things to say. From the salesperson who was friendly and attentive to the staff at our party who were attractive, outgoing and helpful to the food which was delicious and completely above our expectations...we would recommend The Hearty Boys to anyone and will continue to use them as our #1 pick of caterers in Chicago!!

We have used the Hearty Boys Caterers for several years and the experience has always been first rate. They are professional, organized and most importantly they have proved me with excellent food and service. All our parties have been more than perfect and our guest left each time asking "Who was your caterer?" We are using them again for Thanksgiving and the menu we have selected with them is incredible - they stick with the basics and make things you and your guests WANT to eat. Hands down the best in Chicago.

We had Hearty Boys cater a party on one of the boats on the River. I had a hard time getting a call back and then had a bad experience with our first sales rep (inaccurate proposal, unresponsive). Then we found out he had left (quit, fired?). The new rep was better but still not very attentive. We always had to follow-up and stay on top him. Somehow this company forgets that we are paying them.

We had a nice tasting. The proposal following the tasting didnt match what we tasted. It was revised. The night of the event they served an item we didnt order in place of something we really wanted.

If they hadnt been on 'approved vendor list' of the boat, we would have dropped them at the beginning. But we had to stick with them. There are too many capable caterers to have to worry about all this.

I would use someone else.

My wife and I were very pleased with Hearty Boys. We had a get-together at our house with approximately 30 people. We were happy to know that Hearty Boys can do small or large events. Everything was fantastic.
