On 5/16/2025 Elizabeth Wilson had this to say:
The food is always delicious at Cindy Lou’s. I am happy to report that the catering is as well! We had Cindy’s cater our wedding and they were wonderful to deal with, from the tasting to the big day. So many of our guests complimented the food and how delicious it was. The brisket is always tender, the macaroni and cheese is so creamy, and that turkey!!!!! I can’t say enough how much I recommend you eat here, and hire them for your next event!
