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 are a small family business and believe in treating our clients like family. We take great pride in our product and of bringing the flavors of Naples to your venue or home.

We had Va Fa Napoli at our new home for a combined housewarming and milestone anniversary celebration. With an invitation of 75 guests, we wanted to be hands off the food and work while providing our guests with great food… and who doesn’t love pizza!? Well, from the very beginning, communication was great and Va Fa Napoli delivered everything as stated. The pizza truck arrived on time and set up perfectly in our driveway along with setup of three high top tables. The pizzas flowed for a full two hours and the array of different toppings left nobody hungry! The party was exactly the casual atmosphere with yummy food we envisioned. We also had them provide salad to round out the menu and it was fresh and delicious also. The entire staff was a pleasure to have here, friendly, respectful and very professional. We would not hesitate to have this amazing company back another time for a future event, so don’t hesitate to use them for your next celebration! You won’t be sorry… thanks again Ava Fa Napoli for helping to make our special day an absolute pleasure and so yummy on all levels!

Chef Ellen goes above and beyond. We had a backyard wedding for 117 guests with passed hors d’oeuvres, appetizer station (a surprise by chef!), sit down plated entrees, as well as finger sized desserts! We had a tasting prior to decide the final menu. The food is phenomenal- chef used both our indoor kitchen as well as our garage for food prep/cooking. Not only does she supply food and server staff, but has a plethora of vendor connections for all wedding necessities- floral decor, bar tending staff and decor, linen decor, tent/table/chair vendors, etc! Transparent pricing- never felt shortchanged. We talked on the phone often, going through various in depth details that by the pictures, you can see were worth the extra time! Will be using chef again for our baby gender reveal party!

Summit Catering 

5.0

  • Starts at $1
  • Serves Middlesex, NJ

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.

I booked Chef Julienne as a surprise for my daughter to make sure she had something to eat on the morning of her wedding, and they exceeded my expectations. The food was gorgeous, of true quality, and delicious. Most importantly, my daughter felt special throughout the entire process.

Stuf'd 

5.0

  • Starts at $65
  • Serves Middlesex, NJ for additional fees

As a kid, Rebecca could be found in the kitchen cooking with either her Mom or Grandma. Traveling to Albany was always a treat, as her favorite dish to eat was Nan's French toast. While studying at NYU, Rebecca came up with the concept of STUF'D to fulfill the need for a savory French toast, as it was yet to be done. She decided to start the business as a food truck in 2016, as a way to keep her brand more mobile. Since then, we have evolved into a full-service catering company, offering a variety of sandwiches, sliders, and cocktail bites, and serving events that range from weddings and birthday parties to large-scale events!

Stuf'd was the perfect wedding caterer for our special day. We were so nervous booking a caterer blind from across the country, but were wowed by Stuf'd! From the start, their communication was prompt and efficient - they preferred to text which made it easy for us to stay in touch throughout the planning process. Their service and the quality of the food was truly exceptional, earning a solid 10/10 in our book. The appetizers were a huge hit, with so many compliments from our guests on the creative and delicious selections. They also did an amazing job accommodating the many food allergies and dietary restrictions of our guests, ensuring everyone was able to enjoy the meal. We couldn't have asked for a better catering team to be part of our wedding celebration.

We found The Backyard Bar Co through a vendor recommendation and were so glad we did! Brittany and Candice were responsive to our inquiry and so easy to talk with. Brittany helped put us at ease and from our first phone consultation we knew we were in good hands but could not have imagined just how wonderful it was to work with them. Brittany and Candice are both wonderfully personable yet also highly knowledgeable and professional. They worked with us through phone calls, email and a tasting night to create a bar menu that let our tastes and interests shine through. The menu also brought their considerable experience and love every step of the way using top notch ingredients including homemade lavender simple syrup, in house dried citrus garnishes, luxardo cherries and environmentally considerate serving ware. We had a group chat going the week of the wedding that helped us feel excited and cared for on our day. There were a lot of last minute headaches that we had to sort through and these ladies were joy and sanity in a head spinning time. Weeks after, many guests are still raving about how sweet they both were and what awesome drinks they made. They truly helped make our wedding day the best it could be.
