Been traveling for two says got to Pittsburgh late tired and hungry, found the advertising for this establishment stating open 24hrs, so I ordered $34.00 in food and delivery, no one showed up no one called, text or email. I tried to call, text and email and got no response. I went to bed hungry. Woke up next morning called no answer at at.

Samantha was absolutely amazing. We requested Moroccan food for our post-COVID wedding reception of 30 people, and she totally delivered. My family still talks about how good the food was. First, we never had a tasting, we purely went on Samantha's professionalism and a few recipes we already had. It was the right move - even my grandfather, typically a picky eater, went back for several rounds. Samantha somehow managed to provide a variety of food but also didn't stray from the mains. With a family of many diets, everyone was able to enjoy it. The food was amazing and delicious and plentiful.

My husband and I did a cooking class with Samantha where we learned to make Lobster Risotto and Creme Brulee. Both items turned out really good and I definitely feel like I could make them at home. You even go home with written recipes. It was a small setting, just 4 of us in the class, but that made it really enjoyable and hands on. I especially appreciate that Sam was willing to make accommodation for me as I do not like lobster so she made a wonderful chicken breast for me and even a separate pan of Risotto so that mine did not have the lobster stock in it. Overall the night was very enjoyable

We have worked with Samantha for several years now and are always impressed with her delicious meals whether it’s for a holiday, special event, or weeknight healthy dinner. She recently helped plan a fall themed picnic lunch for our anniversary and also provided us with an incredible dinner to celebrate quietly at home - delivered to our doorstep! She prepared the most delicious melt in your mouth filet, crisp asparagus, huge lobster tail with an herb butter sauce and hands down the best, creamiest mashed potatoes we have ever eaten. The bread pudding with rum sauce was the perfect end to our

Samantha and Hungry For Time is the best catering service around Pittsburgh. She is very communicative with getting exactly what you want for whatever occasion within your budget. I have used her for a number of events as small as 6 up to 100 people. She will accommodate any and every restriction on diet/food allergies for your guests (even catering to the kiddos). The best part about Hungry For Time is that you are not limited to certain select menus like other companies. She will make whatever you want. She is such a talented chef. I have never had one complaint about her food. I can’t wait

Sam catered our Spring wedding and made ALL of our wacky dining dreams come true.
We wanted family style - she did it. We wanted, tiny crab cake tacos, charcuterie, salad, filet, fried chicken and waffles, beans & greens, baguettes from a specific bakery - and queso the way we remember it from our days in Texas....no problem! Food was DELICIOUS. Maybe we over-ordered... but no one was left hungry.
More importantly, the planning process with Sam was the least stressful experience of planning the entire event. The woman has a sense of calm when she enters a room...I couldn't imagine

We used Hungry For Time catering for an event at Quantum Spirits in Carnegie. Really people, go to Quantum!!
We ordered the following:
Meat and cheese tray
Strip steak, brie, caramelized onion and fig jam slider
Chicken and waffle skewer with syrup on the side
Shrimp cocktail platter
Falafel slider with lettuce, tomato and taziki
Hummus, veggie and pita platter
Loved the strip steak and brie sandwich - so good. Another big hit was the chicken and waffle skewers - they went fast. The hummus was really good too.
Samantha was easy to work with and had everything ready at the event. I&apos

Samantha provided meals for our family for several years.
The food was always healthy and delicious. We would get a delivery once a week, then heat up food for dinner 4 nights a week.
It always seemed fresh and tasty. We would Samantha to anyone else who is just a little busy to cook themselves, but still wants to avoid takeout.

I hired Samantha for a post-holiday dinner for ten people. It's been years since we were all together as a family and we didn't want anyone to have the burden to shop, cook, clean-up, etc.
Samantha was great to work with. She has a wide variety of menu items to choose from, and most importantly she was flexible in working with a severe food allergy. We started with crab cakes (just so-so, could have used some dipping sauce, but my parents liked them and that's what counts!), and amazing shrimp and artichokes in phyllo cups (they went like wildfire - gone in a flash!).
