I absolutely loved working with Tasha and her team! We had our wedding at a rustic barn venue that did not have a kitchen, but Tasha was able to put together the perfect buffet setup that worked for us. She was very mindful of our budget, and was very helpful throughout the entire process. She came up with a delicious menu that went with our bbq theme, and the signature cocktails at our bar were a huge hit. Our guests gave me so many compliments about everything, and I am grateful that we had Tasha and her team there to make our wedding as special as it was.

Our church had Luongo BBQ for our Christmas event. We had a few different food trucks, and this, by far, was the most popular choice(in our heavily Hispanic church), and the people could not stop talking about it. The flavors, smells, service, and everything were top-notch. We will be using them in the future. Their mission and heart for people and service were seen clearly. Great job, Mollie and Chuck!

I cannot say enough good things about Summit. The food and the service are next level, and the attentiveness the day of the wedding is unmatched. Working with the Summit team was fantastic, they really made our day so special and had it go off flawlessly. Tori and the team were so attentive and gave us everything we could’ve asked for. There was not a moment when me or my husband did not feel attended to -- when our drinks were empty, they were there; they made sure we were able to eat and actually enjoy the appetizers at cocktail hour too. The dinner was also delicious. Just really great food all around. So happy we went with Summit. From start to finish they were truly incredible and I cannot recommend them enough.
