Chef Julienne 

5.0

Hackensack, NJ
  • Starts at $534

Chef Julienne delivers the elegance and creativity of fine dining in a way that feels warm, personalized, and inviting, not exclusive or out of reach. Our cuisine is elevated, artfully plated, and thoughtfully seasonal, but always rooted in hospitality. We’re more than caterers, we create experiences. We think about how the food will feel at your table, not just how it tastes. That’s what leaves an impression. We don’t believe in cookie-cutter catering. Every menu is built around your event and your taste. Our offerings are always flexible and always beautifully executed. We make gourmet accessible and curated to you.

Chef Julienne was the perfect choice for our wedding catering needs. From the very beginning, their communication was honest, with active listening and quick responses to our requests. The quality of their work was truly above and beyond - they were attentive to every detail and truly cared about making our special day perfect. Chef Julienne remembered my preferences from a previous event after I found him in Batch and was able to curate a breakfast bar that was tailored specifically to me and my tastes. On the morning of the wedding, their team took care of everything, allowing me to relax and not worry about a hungry bridal party. The breakfast spread was not only beautiful, but delicious as well. I'm so grateful to Chef Julienne for their exceptional service and for helping to make our wedding day truly unforgettable.

Chef SweetLadyR

  • Starts at $40
  • Serves Hackensack, NJ

I am a Jersey City native with Indo-Caribbean roots, currently residing in Bayonne NJ. I found my passion for cooking in my mother’s kitchen, where I learn to create flavors that would leave you wanting more. After my mother passed away when I was 20, I took on the responsibility of caring for my younger sisters, keeping her spirit alive through her recipes. In 2017, my culinary journey took a significant step forward when I joined Liberty House Restaurant, where I developed a passion for fine dining and large-scale catering. I honed my skills in menu creation and banquet hosting.

ChefSweetladyR can do it all, from private daily meals to large scale catering events, and in any cuisine or fusion you can think of. Highly recommended for any occasion

Working with Ellen was wonderful. Her professionalism, courtesy and thoughtfulness were outstanding. Her food was both delicious and presented beautifully. I am so happy I went with her and will gladly call her again. So low key and genuinely a very nice person. She helped with so many things that were above and beyond her job. I highly recommend Ellen to cater your party. Mine was a graduation party at a community room in a NYC apartment building. It has difficult parking and drop off for all her catering materials. But Ellen made it work. She also helped me plan a very tasteful menu. Also her assistant, Alex, was so professional and diligent. They both really helped make my party a success!"

Purslane is probably one of the first caterers I worked with when I started my wedding planning business, and 6 years later, our relationship is still going strong! Their food is incredible, their staff is so professional, and they are a dream to work with on the planning side. I also have to give them MAJOR credit for being a zero waste caterer.

Abigail Kirsch Catering 

5.0

  • Serves Hackensack, NJ

The seeds of the business go back to the 1960s when Abigail started a cooking school from the basement of her home. Her entrepreneurial spirit and early success drove her to quickly expand the school to a retail outlet, and few years later, her husband, Bob, sold his company to join her in launching the catering business. Their son, Jim, joined the couple in 1980 and has been running the business with Partner & Chef Alison Awerbuch since the early 2000s. Through the years, the DNA of Abigail Kirsch has never changed. Rooted in the belief that, “We are only as good as our last event,” its culture centers on creativity, planning and flawless execution. The company’s mission is to execute events in which the client feels like a guest and guests feel as though they are in someone’s home.

We asked Abigail Kirsch at Tappan Hill to create an all vegan wedding. Their food was truly delicious and it is not easy to make excellent vegan food. The entire wedding experience was made very easy for us. It was very professionally handled. They answered every question. They anticipated our needs before we anticipated them. I highly highly recommend them. We had a truly wonderful wedding thanks to them..

The Brooklyn Kitchen Catering team was an absolute dream to work with for our September 2025 wedding! From our first call to the wedding day, we had nothing short of a pleasant experience. The team was very easy to communicate with and was quick to make adjustments to our contract as needed. We did a tasting, which they delivered to our home (with complementary wine!), and once we tasted the food, it was a no-brainer choice to book them to cater our wedding. From the cocktail hour to our wedding buffet, the food was so flavorful and delicious. The team also provided our bar service, which went very smoothly. They were very accommodating to requests and were also very sweet in person on the day. We would definitely recommend booking this team for your next event!

The oysters come from carefully selected oysterfarms in the Northern East coast of US/Canada. With their outgoing personality, our Oystertainers know how to persuade almost anybody to eat oysters. The founder, Matijn Wijn, started the company 20 years ago in the Netherlands. He is driven by a passion for oysters and when he introduced Oystertainment® it was an overnight success. We also run oyster bars at world leading art fairs like Art Basel and TEFAF. Let's Oystertain you!

If you have the opportunity to book Red Oyster USA for your event you 100% should! First off the booking experience was above and beyond with customer service, answering all of my questions promptly and with ease. My husband and I renewed our vows on a rooftop in New York City December 30. My husband and a lot of our guests enjoy oysters so I thought this would be the perfect addition to our reception! We had the pleasure of having Sophia as our Oystertainer for the evening. She was AMAZING!!! She was extremely friendly and helpful! I was not much of an oyster person before, but she had me try them a couple of different ways and I did find one that actually worked really well for me. If it wasn’t for her knowledge and guiding I probably would’ve never tried them and now I am a fan! The Oystertainer was really another amazing staple to our evening and I am so glad we were able to book them. I would book them each time I had an event if I was given the opportunity, I highly suggest you do the same!!!! You won’t regret it!!! Now I will have to wait until they expand to Oklahoma (hint,hint) to book again!
