October 6, 2025Do Not Hire
I hired him for an engagement party and he no showed the event. When I followed up with him he told me I provided the wrong date and then completely ghosted me and wouldn’t provide a refund. We sent a request to the service we hired him from to see what date we had requested and he had the correct date but still no showed. He cost well over 1000 and I could not get any refund save your money don’t hire him!

October 6, 2025Scammer!!
DO NOT HIRE HIM! If I could give 0 stars I would!! My fiance had hired him through Bark to cater at our surprise engagement party he had planned for me. On Bark he had requested Friday August 22, but for some reason the caterer thought it was for Saturday August 23. Because of this mishap, my fiance had to last minute order pizzas so we had food at the party. After reaching out to Coden Cooks, he has refused to refund any of the money we spent even though we didn’t get any service!! We even compromised and said if he could just pay for the pizzas we had to buy we would be ok with that and he ghosted us. 0/10 service. DO NOT USE!!
