Reviews

Hi! I'm Helen and for those who were so kind in giving us a review Thank You!  

I love the LOVE given and so happy we made all your events extra special.  

For those who are just visiting us Welcome!!!  

 What do we do? - We create multi-cultural menus which means -  think of great food from almost any where in the world and the US and then we create a menu in which works for your group.   I have a Fine Arts background so I am always thinking on how to make your event special.  

Who is Aunty Helen?
 I'm about living and enjoying life.  My nephew named our company which not am I only proud of it but proud of him as well.  Someone said to me it must be great to have a company in your name.  I actually didn't know what to say.  Here is the funny thing!  Every name we thought of didn't have my name in it.  But my nephew came along, rolled his eyes and said why don't you just call it Aunty Helen's Kitchen.  Like Helllllo!   HAHAHAHA  It was hilarious so how could I not name it that!  Because it's about connecting and he reminded me of that.  In his eyes me taking care of people and making food for everyone to enjoy is just who I am!  Just old Aunty Helen!!!  HAHAHAHAHA  Gotta love the Honesty and the Realness to it!

So Who is Aunty Helen's Kitchen and where do we want to go?
We are a group of good hearted people and everyone is different.  We create wonderful Multi-Cultural food so everyone can enjoy any event we help you with which isn't that really the point of having any kind of gathering!



At the moment we do up to 700 guest.  We are currently looking for a corporation who might want to do 1 or 2 events a month.  Lunches or Dinners...  We can do Breakfast but it would have to be a 30 guest count or more...  

Now with that said who don't we work with?  
Sorry but sometimes it's just not a good fit.  I tried it once and I should have trusted my instincts but no matter what I did I couldn't make her happy even though almost all of the food was eaten and everyone had told me how much they loved the food.  I don't know but have you ever left a restaurant when it wasn't good and told them how wonderful it was!!!!  So now I stict to my instincts...  So what type of people probably won't be a good match?

If you know you are the type of person who isn't going to let my team do our job, which is give friendly service but professional...  Create a menu which works for your group not just for a few, and you always know better then everyone else we aren't going to be a good fit.  
The clients we have are busy people and want time to do other things...  They run corporations or Lead major event gatherings when they come to vegas and want a menu that they are all going to enjoy as well as include their guest and possible future clients...  They want to put their best foot forward by welcoming all to there table and know all is taken care of and will be enjoyed.  I try to get to know your clients so when we cater again I might have dicovered your top client loves say Brûlée and might just love our Baileys Creme Brûlée or likes theres a bit firmer and less burnt or what ever the case may be.  And yes I make notes and yes I do let my clients know that  one of your clients who looks like this loves this or that so maybe we can put that into the menu.  Sometimes we do it other times we don't but at least you have options for your group.  I mean does it make since to eat steak if your guest or vegetarians...  That one always makes me laugh!!!! 
So enjoy all of the wonderful reviews and testimonials from our clients and I hope if your a friendly good hearted person then you will  call us for your events.

Professional Corporate Reviews. 2018


Helen; we have been working together for a few years now and I look forward to working together in the years to come.
As the owner of a 14 year old executive concierge company “King of Clubs Las Vegas” based here in Las Vegas you and your company have handled a very eclectic range of customers. Anything from 100-300 person corporate  events as well as smaller 20-30 person bachelor and bachelorette parties with in suite private dining inside a variety of Las Vegas’ most impressive resorts.    
 
The end result was always the same-an extremely well presented professional presentation/menu and staffing (where applicable) and the response always the same; extremely satisfied and happy customers making  the events a huge success and my customers most happy.​

If I may ever be of assistance to you Helen on a referral basis please pass my contact information on….it would be a pleasure and I wish you years of success!

It is always a great pleasure to work with Aunty Helen’s Kitchen for my corporate catering needs. Our training attendees unanimously enjoy the high quality of meals provided for them. Aunty Helen’s Kitchen provides on time efficient service and takes the stress out of my corporate catering needs. I elect to have Aunty Helen’s choose my menus for the week and with a quick call or an e-mail with the dates and head count we are done. They send copy of the weeks menu and if any changes are needed they are quick to make them. I have used Aunty Helen’s Kitchen for over two years now for my corporate catering needs and I am looking forward too many more with them. I can always rely on their friendly and professional services. I am on the other side of the country working with Aunty Helen’s Kitchen and it is like they are right at my back door providing their services. So Trustworthy and dependable.

    Amazing Food and Service
    "Helen was amazing! She did a corporate lunch for 25 of my customers, and I could not have been happier. Not only was the food amazing, but Helen stayed through the whole lunch to make sure that everyone was satisfied.

    I would recommend giving her "free reign" over the menu. I did, and the food was amazing. She is very creative and has experience with many different cuisines."

    Wedding Reception
    "Helen was professional and very pleasant! She stayed our entire reception to ensure that everyone was satisfied. I received compliments from several people about how delicious the food was. I will use Helen again for any catering services and recommend her to my friends and family. In addition to providing great food, Helen spent a lot of time talking to me about what I wanted, recommending food choices based on my needs, and double checking that we were in agreement before our event. Thank you Helen for your part in making my wedding reception a great memory!!!"

    "I used Aunty Helen for a last minute company banquette and WOW...even though it was somewhat last minute...it came off without a hitch! All the food was extremely fresh and the service was TOP NOTCH. A client referred me to Helen and said she was "The Best In Nevada". I figured he was exaggerating until I had a chance to experience it myself! 
    I will only use A.H. from here on......."

    "I was throwing a baby shower for my friend and asked Helen to cater the event. The people at the party included both vegan and vegetarians. Helen was able to accommodate everyone at the shower while still preparing delicious food. She provided a wide array of hor d'oeuvres as well as a very delicious flavored iced tea. And it was not one of those store bought teas! Helen was very professional and had the clean up down in a snap. I would recommend Aunty Helen's Kitchen to any of my friends!!"

She was very flexible in meeting our very fluid competition schedule, making deliveries where it was most convenient and timely for our team. She took special care in meeting all special dietary restrictions, and went above and beyond in ensuring that all of our athletes were well fed and ready to perform. Great job!"

Recently I attended an event where Aunty Helen's Kitchen Catering had provided the appetizers. Wow,  all the food was really fresh!  The shrimp, skewered chicken and meat balls were all delicious! There was a great variety and I ate things I would normally never eat - like spinach in a philo?  Sscrumptuous.  And she makes all the sauces and dishes from scratch! Definitely will be calling Aunty Helen for my next party!

I asked Helen to come and cook for a small private family dinner for my mother's birthday and I can honestly say it was spectacular. Helen took the time to discuss different menu options with me before the event and her prices were more than reasonable. She arrived on-time the day of the dinner and had the majority of the things she needed for the event already with her. She was polite, well-dressed, professional, and an amazing conversationalist. My entire family enjoyed having her in our home and she really blended seamlessly with our dinner. My mother loved her so much she has already asked her to cater a very large family celebration next spring. We had a very delightful Italian dinner and the portions were more than ample. We all were able to take some leftovers home for a wonderful dinner even the next evening. We had two guests stop by to wish my mother happy birthday and Helen was so very welcoming and offered to prepare extra for them. Even though they did not stay for dinner the thought of Helen offering to prepare more for them was very generous and accommodating. Our food was amazing - better than anything we could have ordered in a restaurant. Everything was fresh and so very flavorful. I can go on and on about how wonderful Helen is but the only way for you to understand is to definitely invite her to cook for you. Thank you again Helen!

    She went over and above to find things I wanted in my menu. She arrived at the designated time. She set everything up beautifully, with table clothes and extras. The food was phenomenal. She stayed around until everyone was served and helped clean up. I would highly recommend her.

    By the way...
    Her garlic mashed potatoes were absolutely fantastic!"

    Helen, Thank you for taking on our party just 4 days prior! 
    Its clear that you put tons of love into your food. My husband's birthday boat party was super successful. Helen and her team made almost 70 meals for nearly 30 friends. Everything was packaged and labeled perfectly.

    You are an angel. Food was fantastic and we had leftovers for days.

    Can't wait to work with you again!
    BIG LOVE!"
