Keane's Wood-Fired Catering 
Rating: 5.0 (106 reviews)
·Ratings include Zola and Google reviews
  • Starts at $6,000
  • Serves New London, CT

Keane’s Wood-Fired Catering was founded by husband and wife team, Padraic and Kaylyn Keane. Padraic grew up working in his parents’ village pub in Galway, Ireland and moved to the United States in 2015 where he became fascinated with traditional southern barbecue. Padraic welded his first wood-fired smoker at the Steel Yard in Providence and Keane’s held their first catered event at Whalers Brewing in South Kingstown in 2016. Since then Keane’s has continued to build a reputation for exceptional food and service.

Awarded Best of Zola
There are a million reasons Keane’s has been awarded the top caterer in Rhode Island. It’s hard to put into words what their service meant to us throughout the wedding process. Alicia’s patience and attention to detail during planning, and her certainty that the day would go just as planned was very much appreciated as a nervous bride. Additionally, as someone with a laundry list of allergies, Keane’s took the time to sit down with me and create a menu that I could fully enjoy. To sum it up, the one thing we’ve heard from each and every guest since the wedding is, “Wedding food is usually fine at best, and that was one of the best meals I’ve ever had.” Highly recommend the brisket, cornbread, broccoli salad, and of course their chocolate chip cookies. Thank you to Keane’s for your exceptional service and your delicious food. You’ve got customers for life.

  • Serves New London, CT

Odeen's Catering Company is a family-owned, open-fire catering specialist serving couples throughout Connecticut, New York, and New Jersey. We create elevated off-site wedding experiences with restaurant-quality cuisine, personalized service, and meticulous attention to detail. From custom menu development and private tastings to curated bar packages, event timeline planning, staffing coordination, and seamless collaboration with planners and venues, we provide a comprehensive catering experience designed to make your wedding day effortless and unforgettable.

Odeen’s Catering delivered a wedding dining experience that genuinely rivaled some of the best restaurants we’ve been to. The quality of the food was exceptional from start to finish — not just “great for a wedding,” but truly outstanding on its own merits. Every course was thoughtfully prepared and beautifully executed. The ingredients tasted fresh, the flavors were balanced and elevated, and everything was served at the perfect temperature — something that’s incredibly hard to achieve at scale. From the cocktail hour through dinner, there wasn’t a single dish that didn’t impress. What stood out most was the consistency. Whether you were one of the first tables served or the last, the quality never dipped. That level of precision and care is rare in catering, and it did not go unnoticed by our guests — many of whom are serious food lovers and couldn’t stop talking about the meal. Beyond the food, the service was seamless and professional, but it was the culinary experience that truly set Odeen’s apart. If food is a priority for your event, you will be in exceptionally good hands with this team.

To start let me say I've been in the food industry for a long time a good portion of that being in the carering/wedding industry, and coming from experience i knew how stressful planning a wedding would be. My wife and I decided to go without a planner and do it ourselves. I have known Georgio for many years and when it came time to plan the wedding there was no question on who I was having cater the event. I've always known him to be very adventurous and passionate about his craft but never to the extent that he generously showed my wife and I. Georgio and his team guided my wife and I through all stages of the process with ease and made us feel as comfortable as possible during the planning. Now the event itself was truly outstanding, he and his staff were so professional, hard working and meticulous. When it comes to a wedding your guest will forever remember two things the music and the food, now my music was absolute top notch the food stole the show. A family style feast was prepared for my guest and let me tell you I'm still getting calls and messages about the food. So to sum it all up LuShe'ann catering should be at the number one spot on your list for future events.
