I have worked with Alex at AD Catering for multiple big events. Both as a photographer and florist myself, I am extremely visual and specific about how things are presented and AD blows it out of the water. While looks are important, for the actual product (food and delivery) to be such high quality is very rare and they always deliver. Alex has amazing taste and styling skills when it comes to design details. She is extremely professional to work with and her team is super friendly and reliable. AD Catering is truly unique from any catering and planning service I have ever worked with before and anyone would be so lucky to work with them!!

Jillicious Foods & Events 
Rating: 5.0 (16 reviews)
  • Starts at $20,000
  • Serves New York, NY

Jillicious Foods is an all-in-one catering and event company dedicated to creating inspired, authentic wedding, social and corporate experiences. For us, every client represents a unique opportunity to tell a new and delicious story. Chef Jill has been telling these stories for nearly three decades. We work in a variety of cuisines, from New American to Cajun to Southeast Asian; accommodate all diets, including gluten-free, vegan, vegetarian, and pescatarian; and are proud to partner with local farms and purveyors throughout the Hudson Valley and New York City.

Jill truly is THAT girl! From her keen eye for detail to incredible patience and personalization, from the start we knew our experience was going to be top notch. Jill worked with us to create a menu that spoke to all of our childhood favorites and tastes from home that had all of our guests watering at at the mouth, and some even bonding over what some of the dishes meant to us and our families. As a Miami native and Italian American (respectively), we wanted the food to touch on our love of Latin and Italian food, which Jill touched on perfectly (especially with the meatballs and empanadas!). From day 1, Jill was truly Team Shelby and Jordan, and for that we could not be more grateful.

Awarded Best of Zola
As a wedding planner many times I am managing vendors not only to confirm service but to prevent jeopardizing my clients event. Most of the time this can be frustrating especially when things are forgotten, coupled with many last minute changes, but not with Krisp Events. With Nora and Krisp Events I can close my eyes. It is important to be able to trust your vendors (especially Catering) without micromanaging. Their food is delicious, their staff is friendly, formal, and knowledgeable, and the administrative experience is seamless. Every event with Krisp, is a successful event.

D'lish 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves New York, NY

I have a boutique catering business specializing in upscale events for parties of 10 to 100. We offer an eclectic and elegant menu and put a high value on a natural, yet inventive presentation. I have been in business for myself for over 15 years and I have decades of experience in Food and Beverage. My first "aha moment" happened after seeing the movie Babettes Feast. That was over 30 years ago, and my heart remains in the same place.

From the very first interaction, the team at D'lish was prompt, professional and genuinely invested in our special day. Deirdre really listened to our vision and her team delivered an amazing, attention-to-detail spread that was full of love! The food was not only delicious, but beautifully presented, and our guests raved about every bite. D'lish went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was perfect, and we are so grateful for their hard work and dedication. I will try to share some photos when I can!

Emma's Torch 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
  • Starts at $500
  • Serves New York, NY

Emma's Torch is a social enterprise that provides culinary training for refugees, asylees, and survivors of human trafficking. We offer a variety of full-service catering events in the Washington, DC area and the New York area.

The food was delicious (a fact *many* guests were incredulous about), the staff so kind, and Amanda the catering manager an amazing partner. From the initial tasting when we felt like royalty, to the dozen twists and turns to our order to get the price down to the wire, all the way through 11th hour changes to the rentals (changes, I might add, that Amanda had already foreseen!), we were so happy with our choice to go with Emma’s Torch. It was a cherry on top that they are a nonprofit with such a fantastic mission.

Award-wining Chef Alain Lemaire is a native of Port-au-Prince, Haiti, where he first discovered his interest in cooking.

Chef Lemaire has featured on several TV shows: he was the host chef of the “Taste of Haiti” episode of the "Luda Can't Cook" series on Discovery+ with award winning rapper, actor, restauranteur Chris "Ludacris" Bridges. He is also a contestant of the Food Network's hit series, Fire Masters, Cutthroat Kitchen, and Chopped.

Awarded Best of Zola
We have been fortunate to work with chef Lemaire on several occasions. First at my wedding, my anniversary dinner and more recently at my sister destination wedding. Each of the experiences was beyond excellent! His menu choices are extensive. The dishes are delicious and creative. Chef lemaire is always professional , on time , work clean always leaves his kitchen spotless and relates well with the guests to the point where each time I'm hosting the guests always ask if he would be the Chef of the day. Most importantly, chef Lemaire truly strives to create the experience that the client wants starting from the tasting till the day of the event. Highest praise for Chef Lemaire and we look forward to working with him again and again.

JOLAS KITCHEN (AUTHENTIC AFRICAN FOOD) 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
  • Starts at $1,250
  • Serves New York, NY for additional fees

We pamper your tastebuds with authentic African Foods. To us, it’s more than just food, it’s a brand. It’s THE JOLAS KITCHEN BRAND. We have created a brand, with some amazing loyalty. Our aim is to take you back to the streets of Lagos with the Jolasjollof, and if you have never been to Lagos you can enjoy what the Nigerian party Jollof tastes like. It’s cooked with parboiled rice in a mixture of carefully selected peppers to give you that authentic taste of Nigerian Jollof. Looking forward to bringing our flavors to your next event!

Jolas Kitchen catered at our wedding on December 27th. I cannot say enough good things about Chef Jola, she was so communicative, and made excellent recommendations and suggestions, which was so helpful to me as a first time bride who had never planned such a large event before. We were absolutely blown away by the presentation, and the care and attentiveness of chef Jola and her team. I have never worked with such thoughtful and kind caterers, they really thought of everything and made the night such a wonderful and stress free experience for us. The food was absolutely amazing and our guests could not stop talking about how much they loved everything, from the Beef Suya (my personal favorite) to the Cole Slaw, to the Jollof and Meat Pies, and the Puff Puff. A lot of brides don’t eat much on their wedding day, but I cleaned my whole plate and even took some home with me. Highly recommend!
