Born & Raised in St. John, USVI
Good food, good people, and a reason to gather.
At The Grub with Chef Tad, we believe exceptional events deserve exceptional food and genuine hospitality.
Whether you’re planning a destination wedding, rehearsal dinner, corporate gathering, private celebration, fundraiser, or luxury villa event, our team works closely with you to create a customized culinary experience tailored to your vision.
Every menu is thoughtfully curated using fresh ingredients, bold flavors, and professional execution to ensure your guests enjoy an unforgettable dining experience.
Not every celebration looks the same, and your catering shouldn’t either.
Choose the kind of experience that feels right for your day, and we’ll help you build from there.
For intimate weddings and smaller celebrations where the people around the table are the main event.
A thoughtfully prepared meal, beautifully presented, and made for gathering, sharing, and enjoying the people you brought together.
For celebrations where dinner deserves to be part of the occasion.
The Grand Table is a more elevated dining experience, thoughtfully designed from the first bite to the last. With beautiful presentations, interactive food experiences, and special details throughout, it gives your guests something to savor while you enjoy the celebration around you.
For couples who want an elegant evening that still feels wonderfully at ease.
Picture a beautifully set table, cocktails and conversation, thoughtfully prepared food, and a meal meant to be enjoyed slowly with the people you love. The Dinner Party brings the warmth of gathering at home together with the polish of a special occasion.
For couples who want every part of the dining experience to feel considered, beautiful, and effortless.
From the moment your guests arrive to the final course, The Full Celebration brings together generous food, thoughtful presentation, warm hospitality, and elevated details. It’s designed for couples who want to be fully present for their day while knowing the food, service, and celebration around it are being cared for.
Start with the basics: your date, location, guest count, and what you're envisioning. You don't have to have every detail figured out yet.
We'll help you choose the right catering experience and build a menu around your celebration, your guests, and the way you want the day to feel.
Our team handles the preparation, presentation, and catering details we've agreed upon so you can focus on getting married and enjoying your people.
Then comes the best part. Good food, good people, and a reason to celebrate.
We’re born and raised in St. John.
That means the way we cook, the way we welcome people, and the way we gather around a table all come from the place we’ve called home our entire lives.
The Grub with Chef Tad grew from a love of good food, family, community, and feeding people well. When you choose us for your wedding or celebration, you’re not just hiring a caterer on an island.
You’re inviting a local family to be part of an important day.
And that’s something we don’t take lightly.

Every event is approached with care, creativity, and a commitment to delivering an experience that feels as special as the occasion itself.
