Once Upon A Bartender

Great job!

The team was wonderful - it felt like friends helping you out to entertain friends. They are professional, approachable, good people. I would use Once Upon a Bartender again and enthusiastically recommend the service to any friend.

Kinjal responded quickly to my request, and she helped us to make our party in the last minute. She has professional skills and know her job , both drinks and to serve the guests. Arrived on time .

Kinjal showed up ready to work and didn't stop until our Oktoberfest was done. She went with the flow and took care of our guests. She checked in with me in advance of the party and showed up on time and ready to work -- which she did. Very flexible and professional, I look forward to working with her again in the near future!

Jonas was fantastic. Super friendly and helpful. Everything went perfectly. thanks

Kinjal and her excellent team were making amazing drinks but almost as important they were a lot of fun!

We hired Kinjal for our wedding in September 2022. Overall a great experience. Easy to communicate with. Always accessible via text or phone. We had all the details set up beforehand and everything went smoothly. She gave the bride and groom special attention too, a plus. We had an issue with a heavy drinker at the wedding and she handled it with care and professionalism.

Her setup is basic, nothing fancy, but brought everything we asked, no frills, but our guests were satisfied for our "casual backyard" wedding on a budget, this was a perfect fit for us.

Kinjal was amazing even when our event got complicated they did everything they could to work with us and provided us with help, support and everything we could need to make everything run as smoothly as possible!

Kinjal was great! She was our whiskey expert for our whiskey tasting event and she was super knowledgeable and good with the guests!

I hired Kinjal to bartend our wedding after party and she was great. The specialty cocktails were delicious and she was very professional. The venue was missing a few needed things and she handled it seamlessly. Very attentive and made sure everyone had a good time. Would 100% book again when I have a future event.

Kinjal was very friendly and attentive. Her preparation was spot-on, she reached out many days before the event discussed our choices and even recommended some menu items.

During the event she was very caring, offered different choices given guests preferences.

Would definitely hire her for future events

Kinjal worked with me great to meet all of the specific requests I had for a unique event. Great communication, great execution. She's top-notch!

Kinjal was excellent. She came early to set up and served delicious cocktails.

I can’t thank enough to Kinjal for coming to the party and making it one of the craziest party we had in recent time.

Her attention to every person in the party was awesome. She was super caring specially for the people who were planning to drive. The drinks she made was super cool. I would highly recommend Kinjal for any party.

Generally speaking, the server was great, the owner was involved throughout via text. My only complaint was that I had to shop for all of the ingredients, including ice. My event was big and a lot of work. I hired a bartender so that I could avoid that element of the work, but it turned out to be quite difficult to find some of the ingredients so I ended up spending an entire day driving all over to find what she needed.

At the event, she provided zero signage to demonstrate the drinks being served or even advertising her business, so they looked a little out of place, like an afterthought.

Next time I’ll use a full service company.

Otherwise, though, very nice and the server was engaging.

The bartending was spot on.
Bartender was 30 minutes early, her set up was smooth and guests made several positive comments.
Will definitely hire again.

Kinjal was amazing! She communicated with us before the wedding and was very professional and helpful. The day of the event went very smoothly and I appreciated how efficient she worked. I would definitely book her again!

Kinjal was very helpful all along the way - planning, setup and takedown - and was super-friendly and engaging with guests. I would definitely use her again for future events.

Excellent experience. Highly recommended

Fantastic bartender! She brought the whole
event together! I am grateful for hiring her!

Everything was perfect! Organized, helpful, hard working and outstanding service!! I can not say enough about ONCE UPON A BARTENDER! I will hire again no doubt!
Sam was our bartender and he was phenomenal!

Kinjal was an amazing bartender at our wedding reception! She was super sweet and friendly, and she even pre-poured a ton of drinks when her shift was done so that we’d still have drinks ready when the party continued. Highly recommend!!

Fantastic bartender service that I highly recommend. Bartenders were dressed well, showed up early to set up, interacted with guests professionally and with class. Set up looked great. Bartenders were professional, friendly and brought a great energy to the party. Clean up was fast and organized. I highly recommend this company and will definitely use them again. Cheers!

Mary Jane was fantastic, from her caring service to mixing amazing cocktails. She took care of everyone and was very attentive. Thank you for your help.

Kinjal and her assistant exceeded all expectations. First of all, I was only expecting one bartender, and Kinjal showed up to provide extra help, at no extra charge. They were friendly and provided prompt service. And of course, the drinks were outstanding.

Kinjal was fun, a true professional and absolutely delighted our guests. Will def work with her again!

David only had great things to say! Thank you for all of your help and we look forward to working with you again in the near future!

Very responsive to my questions before the event. We were very happy she took control of everything and we were very happy with how everything turned out!

Ms Patel had showed up on time and had smile on her face all the time. Left very profesional impresion occasionaly interacting with guest.Drinks were made fast and taisted good.
We will defenetly hire Ms Patel for our next event.

Jesse fulfilled a last minute request for ice and was super professional. Definitely recommend.

We were SO pleased with the service Once Upon A Bartender provided for our Big Game house party. Highly recommend Kinjal and her team (Sierra). Communication before our event was great. They arrived on time and were even willing to add on an additional hour of bar service. A friend of ours is in the restaurant business and he raved about their mixology skills. You can't go wrong. Hire them for your event. I certainly will.

They were great! Friendly, competent and approachable. All of our staff mentioned how nice it was to have Kinkal and Jesse here. We’ll certainly be using them again in the future!

Sam (I think) came early for set up and it was smooth sailing to the end. I will call back next time I need a bartender. Kinjal was in touch before and after. It was a pleasure working with her.

She arrived on time and was super complete with her bar set up. We had a small party so she wasn’t slammed with orders and it was pretty chill. Appreciate the clean up too! Will definitely hire her again. 👍🏼

I hired Kinjal for a corporate event. I had some questions prior to the event about the plastic cups that were being provided and she was very prompt in responding. She was on time, quietly set up, and cleaned up quickly. Thanks Kinjal!

Kinjal and her team were amazing! It was our daughters wedding event and I couldn’t have been happier with their service, professionalism and courtesy towards our guests.

Communication through the process was timely and perfect.

We would welcome the opportunity to hire Kinjal again!

Thanks Kinjal!

Kinjal was the bartender at our garden party, and was a great choice. She arrived on time, set up swiftly and then proceeded to make great cocktails and drinks for all our guests quickly and with a smile. Would recommend and would definitely hire her again.

I wholeheartedly would recommend Kinjal for your event. She was incredibly helpful. It was obvious that her sincere desire was to help our event be a success; which it was in great part thanks to her efforts.

Kinjal was amazing. Thank you

Kinjal was very good at communicating throughout the entire process. She brought exactly what she promised and had a very positive attitude. Thank you Kinjal!

Kinjal was our bartender for a party of 100 people and she was wonderful. Worked nonstop making fantastic drinks. We ran out some items and she had her assistant go restock so the party continued within a hitch. Really kind and professional. Many of our guests have inquired about her and plan to hire her and we will surely hiring again for our next party!

Excellent and quick on making drinks very friendly
Made my guest very happy everyone enjoyed her

Kinjal did a fantastic job bar tending at our house party! She was so prompt, responsible, and personable. And she knows her bar! I would happily have her work at our event again!

Once Upon A Bartender, Kinjal, was the mixologist for our wedding. She was great. We had seventy five people. She was working solo with help from one associate to deal with ice/cups/refreshing empties. We never had a line. She was fast and accurate. Made great drinks. Everyone had a fun time and no complaints. Would highly recommend her to do another event for us any time.

Kinjal was amazing. We had a very large group and she managed to take care of everyone. She was fun and had a great attitude. I will definitely use her services again.

Kinjal tended bar for our casual corporate offsite event and did an amazing job. On time and on budget. She was very attentive to the needs of the guests and cleaned up like a champ. I highly recommend for any and all events you may be planning.

Kinial is Awesome!! My party is a Hit! She made some Delicious Hawaiian and other mixed drinks. She gave me a list of what to purchase and she even volunteered to buy ingredients I could not find at the store. Save me lots of time!! I highly recommend her!!!

We hired Kinjal for our 4th of July party. She is energetic, fun and super friendly. She really engages with guests and adds to the party atmosphere. I will definitely use her again.
