About Thomas Thyme, LLC

Thomas Thyme creates aromatic flavor profiles, puts a fresh spin on classic dishes, and does so while favoring the customers wants and needs. When outlining the vision for the guest experiences, he always makes sure to ask questions and never assume what the guest would want for their event. If the Thomas Thyme catering experience were to be described in three words, it would be creative, accommodating, and decadent.

Chef Thomas catered my 60th Hawaiian Birthday Party, and he absolutely knocked it out of the park! 🌺🎉 The menu was incredible, featuring appetizers and Beef, Pork, Chicken, and Seafood stations. Every single dish was delicious—💯 across the board! We couldn’t get enough of the Mac & Cheese and Salmon. The Flank Steak and Lamb were absolutely amazing, and by the end of the night, we were all completely stuffed! 😋 And the desserts… OUTSTANDING! WOW! 🍰👏🏽 Chef Thomas, thank you for making my 60th birthday celebration so special with such an amazing spread. Everything was delicious, beautifully prepared, and enjoyed by all. 💯❤️

Recently had a signature birthday celebration for 50 guests w/no experience planning anything on this scale. Based on reviews & initial contact w/Ezekiel from Thomas Thyme I made the perfect choice! Food was scrumptious, staff courteous/punctual and professional, Ezekiel was ALWAYS available, constantly checking in, made a creative menu and received numerous compliments from my guests! Perfection!! Thanking them again!

★★★★★ Outstanding Experience! I cannot recommend Chef Thomas and his team enough! Communication was seamless leading up to the event, pricing was transparent, and the team was punctual! Chef Thomas’s menu options all sounded delicious, but the chosen three-course meal with signature pairing cocktails was perfect! The team was so friendly and even went above and beyond by taking group photos for us! They left us with a spotless kitchen, and we found leftovers neatly packed away for us to enjoy throughout the night. They left a lasting impression on all my guests—I’d hire them again in a heartbeat!

Chef Thomas was responsive to our menu and special food restrictions. Everyone had a great time and learned how to prepare new Thai recipes.

Chef Thomas was a joy to talk to and plan my ideas for my November birthday bash. He listened attentively and was always kind and respectful. The food was so delicious and fulfilling. My friends and I ate every bite for Friday’s fish fry and Sunday brunch. Thank you for making my birthday so special. The sweet potato pie, cheese grits, ricotta pancakes, salad, fish, and bourbon bread pudding was top notch. Chef Jeff was also wonderful to help for Friday’s fish fry. He also lead with great expertise with a friendly, lighthearted demeanor. A million thank you’s!

Ladies, brunch was a total success because of chef Thomas and his team food was delicious! he made us very comfortable and relaxed. Such a good vibe will use him again Thank you.

The meatballs was dry and under cook. The meatballs still had red in the middle. Tastes more like a dry meatloaf. The fried chicken look like it was cooked in old grease. Not well seasoned. The chicken Alfredo came separately. The chicken was breaded, not enough sauce for Alfredo. The charcuterie board could have been better decorated with more selection. Overall it didn’t not meant my expectations and nothing really stood out or wowed any of my guest. The food was delivered on time & the ladies were very pleasant.

Chef Thomas and his team did a great job at our Lobsterfest. From the beginning, he communicated clearly and had good follow up. The day of the event, he and his team went above and beyond to make sure every guest was taken care of. They showed great professionalism.

Chef Thomas provided an EXCELLENT feast for a dinner night on my sisters bachelorette trip! He was personable and friendly, easy to talk to, and excellent to work with. Very responsive and attentive, and helpful with all my questions. He didnt make us one food item that wasn't good, the dinner was a 10/10. Felt like a homecooked meal, it hit the spot. I would definitely recommend him to anyone in the area!

Chef Thomas created an unforgettable birthday experience for my fiancé. From the moment he arrived, Thomas brought a warm, friendly presence to our kitchen that immediately put my fiancé at ease - it felt like learning from a longtime friend rather than a professional chef. What this private lesson truly special was Thomas’s approach to teaching. He patiently guided my fiancé through creating an authentic three-course French meal using just the kitchen tools we already owned. No intimidation, just genuine encouragement and clear instruction. Thomas impressed us with his extensive culinary knowledge that went beyond French cuisine. He shared fascinating insights about various cooking techniques while keeping everything accessible and fun. His passion for food is contagious - my fiancé gained confidence with each technique learned under Thomas’s expert guidance. For anyone considering a special, intimate culinary experience for themselves or their loved one, Thomas delivers something truly exceptional. The birthday cooking lesson resulted in not just a delicious French meal, but also new skills and wonderful memories. A truly meaningful gift that transformed our kitchen into a place of culinary adventure for an evening!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Thank you Thomas for everything!! We look forward to having you back soon!

Chef Thomas was punctual with time. The brunch was delicious! Not only did he cook and serve us, he cleaned our dishes afterwards, mopped the kitchen floor, cleaned the stove. Excellent service. I will definitely hire him again and again! Thank you chef, you made my sister/friend 55th birthday celebration special 💕

We had the privilege of Chef Thomas Thyme coming to our house to cook a delicious meal for 4 of us on New Year’s Eve! He was very professional throughout the whole process. He had an extensive menu to choose from and the appetizers, dinner and dessert we chose were all delicious! We had a great time with him and his sous chef and it made for such a memorable NYE! We will definitely have him back again!

I hired ThomasThyme as a personal chef for my wife’s birthday, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. Thomas and his team were punctual, professional, and made the entire event stress-free. The food was absolutely delicious, with every dish impressing both my family and our guests. On top of that, they took care of all the cleaning and were engaging and friendly throughout the evening, making the celebration feel even more special. I highly recommend ThomasThyme for any event – their service and attention to detail were outstanding!
