Everything was very good. But the tots were too salty, and the bread on the sandwich was pressed too much for my taste. But would try them again.

I hired Gourminis for a team event a few months ago. They were so great we hired them again! The food is delicious and the service is great!

We don't have a single complaint! They had GREAT food, every item was a hit at our event. We got several comments about how fantastic the food was. The workers were friendly and efficient, they were able to maneuver in and out of our small parking lot in a minute flat. We couldn't recommend them more!

Sandwiches were mixed up. They were labeled incorrectly. My husband ate mine before I started to eat so alas, I didn't enjoy .... I know you're busy but it was annoying.

Both our sandwiches were delicious. My only wish would have been that the bacon was a little more crispy on the ends but the flavor was great. Will order from them again I'm sure.

Fat Boys was amazing. They showed up early to ensure they had plenty of set up time. The staff was great and the food was amazing.
