This review is a tad long so bear with me. I worked with La Mila Catering for my sister’s wedding which was held on 27 July 2024. While planning my wedding a few years ago I knew what to expect and what questions to ask. What I didn’t expect was working with such a lovely and genuine team. I worked with Sandy specifically for catering services only. She’s spunky, lively, knowledgeable, and accommodating. Working with her has been a pleasure and I felt as if I were talking to one of my best friends. Sandy is a great salesperson. She not only explains what La Mila offers but she does it in a way that is transparent and has no unexpected costs and “fine print”. She communicates well and is direct, which I appreciate. She’s a talker and I don’t mean that negatively. She makes you feel like family most sincerely. In terms of planning and coordination, Sandy was excellent and they’re lucky to have her. Menu: When creating the menu my sister wanted Mediterranean food. Now, I believe that their specialty is Mediterranean cuisine, but they do not shy away from other cuisines. Their menu is extensive and will cater to anyone’s taste. Skies the limit! We had quite a bit of offerings for Cocktail hour, Dinner, and Dessert. We were able to have a tasting which helped us narrow down if what was selected previously was what they wanted for the day of the wedding. There we met Elie (E-Lee NOT El-lee) and Heidi, the owners, and Sandy in person. Elie is the head chef and knows what he’s doing in the kitchen. Everything was cooked to perfection; delicious tasting and the portions were filling. Aside from the food it was obvious that Elie and Heidi work hard for their business and are truly dedicated. Day of the wedding: Elie, Heidi and their team worked based on the wedding timeline that I created. They were on time to serve all their food. I can’t tell you how many times I saw Elie walking back and forth to check on food and to bring food. That guy was moving! Heidi did all of the cocktail and dessert table placement and more. They are a hardworking team and I highly recommend them. From start to finish it was easy and perfectly executed. Point blank the food was delicious and I wish they had a restaurant so I could eat there all the time. LOL Thank you again for your friendship, delicious food and professionalism. *I wish I took pictures.

We had an absolutely amazing experience working with Jillicious! My husband and I are major foodies so we knew we didn’t want to have standard wedding food at our reception. We started searching for wedding caterers that would work with us to customize the perfect menu for our wedding day. Jillicious did not disappoint! We worked with Chef Jill to put together the most delicious menu of both apps and main courses. Everyone we spoke to after the wedding couldn’t stop raving about how good the food was. It honestly rivaled many of our favorite restaurants in NYC. In addition to the food, Chef Jill and her staff were amazing. They were so responsive throughout the whole wedding process and offered so many great recommendations. On the wedding day, the staff were very helpful with getting the rentals in order, setting up the tables, etc. We also had some guests thank us for how allergy conscious the wedding and staff were. We're so grateful to Jillicious for bringing our vision to life and couldn’t recommend them more! They truly contributed to an absolutely perfect wedding day!

Me and my husband chose MAHFY to cater our 80 person wedding because they offered extensive menu options and the price was right. We are SO GLAD we went with them. This husband and wife team was a true pleasure to work with from the beginning. They came to our home for a tasting, which made for a lovely sort of date night. We enjoyed getting to know them and felt very taken care of. They remained attentive and communicative in the months leading up to the wedding, answering any questions right away. At the wedding, our guests were delighted by the food, and I’m still hearing praises of it a month later. Our guests had a wide array of tastes and dietary restrictions, but we easily found something for everyone (see our menu in the photos!). Don’t hesitate to hire MAHFY for your event!

Arlethea was super sweet and accommodating. My schedule was hectic and it was difficult for me to lock in a tasting date and time. She boxed the food up and dropped it off right to our home! Above and beyond expectations. The food was delicious. All the wedding guests loved the food, but specifically the appetizers. We chose the mini tacos, cheeseburger egg rolls, and spinach cheese puffs. My favorite item was the salmon entree. There was one slight miscommunication about us wanting a cupcake tower. She did not bring one, but once again Arlethea went above and beyond and got us cupcakes the day of the wedding! I highly recommend their services for any and all catering events! Thank you for making our special day seamless and stress free.

Summit Catering officially opened in 1991. The owner built this small family business from the ground up. In 1998, they welcomed their first child with three more to follow. They work alongside Joe and Dory to help this family business thrive. In 2018, Summit welcomes Chef Kevin to their team to work alongside Joe. Our event planners, Alysa and Tori, will be with you from booking to executing your wedding day. They work 24/7 to ensure you a stress-free wedding planning experience. After 29 successful years of serving South Jersey, Joe, Dory, Kevin, Tori, and Alysa are ready and eager to make your next event a culinary experience!

Tori, Nina, Dory, Patty, and the whole Summit crew made our day spectacular. Of course the food was outrageously good with super unique choices (our appetizers included turkey and brie egg rolls and bacon wrapped dates stuffed with goat cheese to just name a few), but the start-to-finish support and care taken by Tori, Nina, and Patty put our mind at ease throughout the entire day. And that was so important to us. Tori helped us throughout the entire planning process make the decisions that suited us best, and was always there to hype up our choices. Nina ran the smoothest ship the day of the wedding. And Patty was incredible day-of, making sure we ate, drank, and were well taken care of. We wanted a fun party that felt uniquely us, and Summit helped us achieve that. We are so, so grateful, and hope to be able to work with them again in the future.

Established in 1998 by chef Nick Wall, foodwerx is the premier catering and event-production company in South Jersey and Philadelphia. Delicious food is Nick Wall’s passion; creativity, flawless execution and exceptional attention to detail are his hallmarks—and the foundation of foodwerx. We use only the finest and freshest ingredients to create delectable offerings served up with an added ‘wow’ factor. We are 100 percent committed to impeccable service. Whether you’re planning a wedding, bar mitzvah, sweet sixteen, graduation party, special birthday, anniversary, shower or a corporate event, foodwerx will meet your highest standards.

Alyssa and the team at Foodwerx could NOT have been more helpful in my desperate time of need. My husband and I decided to postpone our original big wedding plans for a small, intimate wedding in my parents backyard. Having worked professionally with Foodwerx in the past, I reached out to Alyssa; not only did they create a custom menu (matching exactly what we had originally planned), but at great pricing. She offered to handle all of the rentals as well, but I decided to do that on my own. I’m not going to lie, I was not very excited for this plan and stressing out every day. Little did I know, it was exactly what I wanted. The food was amazing (if you are debating on getting crab cakes... just do it, they were incredible), the displays were amazing, and the service was even better! A huge thank you to Alyssa, Nick, and the Foodwerx team for making our wedding the most perfect day!! :)
