Nelson was amazing. He arrived on time. The presentation of the food was wonderful and the food was delicious. The kitchen was left spotless. He was very polite, respectful and friendly. I would 100% refer Nelson to others. We don't do this kind of dinner very often but I would hire him again if I ever had the opportunity!!
