The best decision I made during the wedding planning process was using Tie The Knot Catering and Jacksonville Bartending ” HANDS DOWN”. I could not be any happier working with the Chef Pepe and our wedding guests are STILL talking about how amazing the food was. I sincerely credit chef and the rest of his staff for with making my wedding day truly perfect.
My fiancé and I worked with Chef throughout the wedding planning process. The caterer was the first planning step we took (aside from setting the date.)
We met with Anthony and instead of just talking about menu, he walked with us through exactly what we envisioned for the event as a whole. We walked through time lines and nailed down details, and he brought up so many ideas and suggestions that I hadn't even thought of! He made my fiancé, mom, and me so comfortable; I knew we could trust him from the get-go.
The food was delicious, the presentations of everything were STUNNING, and Chef Pepe was there himself telling us about the dish which was quite an honor.
We had no coordinator, and the reception was at our family's home on a beautiful horse farm, being able to count on Chef Pepe and his staff put all of us at ease so we could enjoy the big day. On the wedding day, Every staff person was smiling and so helpful. 
I really cannot say enough about how wonderful my wedding day was BECAUSE of our chef. They are not just caterers. I think the best part about Anthony and the team is that they are not there just to serve food and leave. He took care of “ EVERYTHING. “
Thank you to Chef Pepe and his staff for making my wedding day an absolute dream!

​TIE THE KNOT CATERING WAS MY CHOICE…. CHEF PEPE WAS AWESOME!
Chef Pepe and his crew was absolutely the best choice I made in my wedding planning. I've spoken with a lot of caterers and menu planners while trying to plan my wedding - Chef Pepe and Tie The Knot Catering was from the first time I spoke to him at the top of the list.
Their FOOD is mind blowing. Picky eaters all agree - Chef hit the mark with every dish. They also are great about incorporating great seasoning into this dishes I love his Rosemary Chicken and Chef Pepe was great about providing veggie options as well.
Their SERVICE is A+ as well. Extremely great with all our guests. Their enthusiasm for the food and service is very evident.
And for me, the BEST part- without even being asked, Chef Pepe took into consideration dietary restrictions, preparing a veggie and gluten-free option for those who had to have them.
Again…His service was 5 star perfection, the food incredible... and more importantly, Chef is a passionate local business owner who strives on 100% Customer Satisfaction from all his customers and you can see that in every aspect of his business. It just doesn't get better than that.
I can't recommend and thank Chef Pepe enough for making our special day one we will always remember!

​There are several catering companies serving the city Jacksonville and St. Augustine, but I chose Tie The Knot Catering mainly because of their 5 Star wedding reviews, relating to how great Chef Pepe’s personal service and the high quality of his food. Now, I can attest to the fact that Chef Pepe did an outstanding job in catering our wedding, from the beautiful and tasteful food to the awesome presentation! Tie The Knot Catering is an honest company with outstanding customer service. Chef Pepe’s extreme knowledge was surely a benefit to us and the personal service from his experienced and professional staff was great.
Chef Pepe will be very professional and responsive to your specific needs. He was wonderful.

I'm from Columbia SC and I had my wedding in Jekyll Island GA. I wasn't familiar with much around this area so I took to the web when I was looking for most things for the wedding. I found this company which is owned by Chef Pepe he was wonderful to work with. He was very professional and helped with anything I needed as far as the menu went. My menu consist of Chicken Breast Marsala, Baked Penne Alfredo, Mashed Potatoes and Italian Green Beans which were served buffet style. My guest loved the menu and the taste of the food. I heard most bride and grooms say they didn't get a chance to eat during the reception so we made sure we ate and it was delectable. I had my serves put some aside for us to eat later and the food that was put aside was warmed up the next day it was just as good as the night before or maybe better. I must say if you have to choose a caterer Chef Pepe's company is a must have.

Our experience using Tie The Knot Catering for bartending services at our wedding was flawless. From the moment I first spoke with Anthony until his company was hard at work for us during our reception, the experience was stress free. They were the one vendor that I did not have an issue with the day of the wedding.
We had over 200 people rushing the bar during cocktail hour and we received so many compliments about how efficient, friendly, and professional the bartenders were.
I highly recommend this company!

We found Tie The Knot catering when we started our catering hunt for our wedding. You will quickly find that they are affordable and amazing to work with. Working with Chef Pepe is such an easy process and he makes it a casual, fun time. We were able to do our tasting and we were even able to provide a few of our own recipes for dishes we requested. They make everything easy by making it a set price per person rather than charging you for every extra thing.
We heard from so many of our guests how wonderful the service and food was.
I would highly recommend Tie The Knot Catering to anyone, whether for your wedding or Social Event! You won't be disappointed.

Chef Pepe and his team were wonderful to work with! We searched high and low to find a caterer that was within our budget but that had exceptional food and service. Chef Pepe went out of his way to ensure we got exactly what we wanted at every step of the planning process. The food was exceptional and we still have guests raving about the herb roasted chicken and sirloin! If we ever have another event in Jacksonville, Chef Pepe and his team will be the ones we call on without a doubt.

Everyone commented on how delicious the food was at our reception! We had a full dinner, 2 meats, salad, veggies, rolls, and prior to that appetizers. Given that it was our wedding day, we both ate very little at the reception, but fortunately, Chef Pepe and his team packaged up our leftovers, which were a generous amount, for us to take home. The setup was perfect. My decor team had left some items on the buffet tables which Chef's team used and set up nicely to coordinate with our table decor. The staff were professional and efficient. We were pleased with the service provided. 
During the planning process, Chef helped me create a personalized menu, and throughout, he was very prompt in returning all of my calls to figure out the details.

Chef Pepe was very professional and awesome! He worked with my budget to deliver an awesome meal. He even took the time to bring a sample to my house for my husband and I to sample and review so we knew what to expect at the wedding. The anticipation had my husband talking he couldn't wait till the wedding to eat the food. Thanks again Chef Pepe for everything.
