We needed a catering service for Christmas, but as you all know everything is closed so we had to pick it up on the 24th. Ron made everything so easy, from helping us in choosing the type of food that had to be oven heated 28 Hrs later.
We ordered the following appetizers:
- Pecan Bacon Wrap Scallops
- Sesame Ahi Tuna
- Coconut Shrimps
- Quinoa Mushrooms
Everything was absolutely delicious. They were easy to work with and very reliable. 100% recommended!!!

I hired Bernwood Catering to do a luncheon for 75+ guests for my event at The Ferrari of Naples dealership. Our company is based in South Florida and I did not have any contacts in Naples. After speaking with Ron I immediately knew I wanted to work with him. He is a fantastic communicator and I trusted him to do the task at hand. He even took the time to visit the space ahead of time. The food was great, in fact, we had served 5 meals during the course of this event at very high end restaurants around South Florida. This was the only meal where no one complained and everyone was happy with the

The food was terrific! The appetizers were "to the nines," and the grouper was delicious and done perfectly. They did a great job on children's food too. Ron personally made sure that everybody had what plenty of what they wished. They did a good job serving, and they left us with a clean kitchen. Overall a great event, and we will repeat.

This team was awesome. Chef Chaz was the sweetest. The food was really good but some things can be improved such as some items because they were pre prepped were a little over cooked but that probably can’t be prevented . Ron was very responsive and very willing to work with you. Will def use them again!

Ron spent his time with me planning our large housewarming party for over 200 people with great detail. Picking up special linens and customized cookies and a large beautiful cake were just a few of the over and above services that he offered. His food presentation is not only beautiful but delicious. A lot of our guests hung out in the kitchen enjoying the chefs prepare and serve six different plates and also wonderful desserts. The cheese and fruit tables were also decorated so beautifully. We plan on using Ron for our future parties large and small. They are the best in Florida!

Chef Ron and his team catered my outdoor wedding (at the Wonder Gardens) and a surprise birthday party at my house and both events were amazing! He is fun, personable and professional and works hard to ensure all t's are crossed and i's are dotted. The food display is beautiful and delicious and he even caters to different diets (he made a rocking tofu tempura for two of us). He supplied most of the cooking pots and dishes/wine glasses for the dinner party but he even washed the pots he borrowed from us!! Would love to use him again for future events.

My son and daughter-in-law booked Bernwood Catering for their reception dinner in May. Chef Ron was quick to respond to their emails and calls. In what was a very stressful time (planning a wedding) he made the selection of food and all the details of what would be needed (number of tables, china, place settings, etc.) so easy. He and his staff were so professional and personable- they could not do enough for us and our guests. The food was AMAZING! Chef Ron is a very talented chef. Not only did the food taste wonderful, but the presentation was beautiful. The wedding guests are still talking about

I found Chef Ron after our original wedding date was postponed and we lost our first caterer. Ron was incredibly understanding of our situation and even wrote us up a special COVID clause for any future postponements. With the unknown of COVID we ended up postponing several more times until our final date of April 30, 2021. Ron helped us pull together a cohesive menu, making adjustments for our smaller guest count. We also had the added challenge of needing to serve everything directly on the beach with no access to a kitchen. Ron made sure to overcome those challenges and all of our guests commented

Ron and his staff did a wonderful job catering my birthday celebration. Ron was always available to take my call and answer my questions. He handled the food, rentals and the cake. He provided appetizers and a wonderful assortment of butler passed hors d'oeuvres. We did a surf and turf entree with a filet that cut like butter and practically melted in your mouth. Everything was delicious. I highly recommend Bernwood Catering

Chef Ron made our office's recognition event a wonderful time! He helped me plan a menu to align with my luau theme, and the food, presentation, and wait staff were all top notch - including Chef Ron.
I received many compliments on the food and the presentation. Our luau menu started with appetizers of a medley of dips with fresh vegetables and house made chips, and our menu featured a baked ham which was sliced for sliders (home made rolls), pulled pork, tropical chicken sliders, sweet and sour meatballs, and sides including a papaya salad, a tropical island slaw, roasted veggie/pasta

Saw a post on Facebook about Bernwood and decided to order off their Mother's Day offerings. Chef Ron was terrific to work with and was able to accommodate the nut allergies in my family. Surf and turf with vegetables, rolls, bruschetta, desert, twice baked potatoes and mor all were Fantastic. Terrific value and better experience, highly recommend!

This was our third community party for our neighborhood in Pelican Marsh and we wanted something different! We googled caterers near Naples and found Bernwood Catering. Well, actually we found Chef Ron. He and Bernwood Catering are fabulous. He was so responsive to our needs (almost 24/7) He worked within our budget, guided us on our selections, he set up on time and the food, well the food, was OUTSTANDING! The pulled pork was a standout and the Steak Burgers were the best I have ever had. From the presentation of the meal to the friendly service and clean up. It was the easiest party that I

I called Chef Ron the day before my event and he did a totally amazing job. I didn't even think I gave enough notice to cater my party at all but he got it done and it was amazing. Everything was amazing and the guest kept talking about the food and beautiful presentation. Chef Ron and Bendwood Catering are now my go to for all my future party's, I wouldn't even think about hiring anyone else.

A dear friends father passed and I wanted to send food - I googled and found Chef Ron. He took on my very small request and ended up taking care of the family for much of the following week preparing delicious family style meals and snacks ensuring the last thing they had to worry about was what to eat. I'm very grateful to have found such a kind person to help. Thank you Chef Ron!
