Who We Are

Hi, I’m Marisa, your chef and the proud owner of Emerald’s Eats. My journey into the world of catering is deeply rooted in family tradition and a love for creating memorable dining experiences.

Growing up, my grandma’s home bakery was my playground, and those moments spent amid the comforting aromas of freshly baked delights sparked a culinary fire within me. Fast forward to today, and I find myself not only cherishing the art of crafting dishes but also fostering a legacy of culinary excellence

We go beyond merely serving food; we create an atmosphere where your guests feel cherished and connected, turning your event into a cherished memory.

Music, much like food, has a way of stirring emotions and creating unforgettable moments. When I’m not in the kitchen, my heart belongs to the trumpet. This passion for music finds its way into the symphony of flavors that define Emerald’s Eats.

But let’s shift the spotlight from me to you. Whether you’re planning an intimate gathering, a milestone celebration, or a corporate event here in Springfield, Illinois, our mission is to elevate your special moments through the magic of innovative, fresh, sure-to-impress cuisine.

So, what’s your vision? How can Emerald’s Eats connect with you for your next event?
