“Over the past 14 years I have had the opportunity to work with Mr. Craig Pendleton, President of National Foodservice Consulting, Inc. and would like to recommend his services in the design, contract documents preparation and “start-up” phases of food service facilities.

My work with Mr. Pendleton was in connection with the initial renovations of a bingo facility in South Louisiana, converting it to a gaming casino owned by the Chitimacha Tribe of Louisiana. Over the years, this original facility was expanded several times, each with expansion of the food service facilities with the last project we worked together on being a 50,000 sq. ft. “satellite” casino adjacent to the original one with three food service venues and associated kitchen and support facilities.

His services included assistance in the initial planning with schematics, work flow diagrams, coordinating with owner’s kitchen staff, equipment specifications, equipment plans and detail drawings to be included in Architects construction drawings.

In my view, none of these projects would have been as successful and gone as smoothly in the food service areas without the insight and design assistance of Craig and his associates. I highly recommend his services in the design and startup of any food service facility and would not hesitate to be associated with National Foodservice Consulting, Inc. in the future.”

“I have had the opportunity to work with Mr. Craig Pendleton on several projects.  All of these projects involved the need for food and beverage expertise.

Craig has, without exception, brought to the projects many solutions that answered the needs of the program.  After our consulting with Craig we had a clear direction of the most efficient path for the food and beverage departments.  Craig was always most prompt with necessary drawings and returning phone calls.  Due to Craig’s involvement, the food and beverage aspect of the projects went smoothly in every case.

I would, without hesitation, recommend Craig Pendleton for any of your future projects.”
