Terms of Service
Last updated January 2026
Requests and confirmation
Submitting a date request through this site does not confirm an event. A date is held only once Chef Gil & Co. confirms availability in writing and the deposit is received. Estimates shown online are preliminary and subject to final menu, staffing, and rental requirements.
Deposit and payment
A 30% deposit confirms the date and is applied to the final invoice. The remaining balance is due the week of the event unless otherwise agreed in writing. Corporate net terms are available on request.
Guest counts
A final guest count is due seven days before the event and becomes the minimum billed headcount. Increases after that date are accommodated when possible and billed at the contracted per-guest rate.
Cancellation and rescheduling
Cancellations more than thirty days before the event receive a deposit refund less an administrative fee. Within thirty days the deposit is retained; within seven days the full contracted balance is due. A date may be moved once, with at least fourteen days' notice, subject to availability.
Venue and access
The client is responsible for venue permissions, parking, loading access, and a staging area with water and power. Delays caused by venue access may shorten service time without reducing fees.
Allergies and dietary needs
We accommodate documented dietary requirements shared at booking. Our kitchens handle gluten, dairy, nuts, shellfish, and eggs; we cannot guarantee an allergen-free environment.
Liability
Chef Gil & Co. carries general liability insurance and food handler certification. Liability is limited to the amount paid for the event. We are not responsible for delays caused by weather, utility failure, or other events beyond our control, and will work in good faith to reschedule.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas. Questions: hello@chefgilandco.com.
