I've used Rodrigo twice now. I plan to use him going forward as well. He is prompt and always set up and ready to go before the scheduled party time. And the bar he brings is amazing and so professional looking. My guests love him and they LOVE his bar! Highly recommend this guy. Glad I found him.
I cannot say enough great things about Rodrigo. He was my savior on Christmas Eve. He helped with the execution of the appetizers and refilling platters, he was constantly cleaning up dirty dishes and washing them, he checked on my guests asking if they needed anything. He truly did it all and I am so grateful. I was able to enjoy my Christmas Even for the first time in 10 years! Thank you so much Rodrigo for everything.
We had Top Shelf out to our house for my wife's 40th birthday party. Not only were they incredibly professional, but dealt with a packed house of people. They did all of this with smiles on their faces, and their set up and clean up was seamless. We've had three different people ask us for Top Shelf's info since that party. Keep up the tremendous work!
