I hired Chef Ellen for a dinner party that I was hosting for 20 people, and she absolutely EXCEEDED my expectations. From our first call about planning the event, to the event itself, Chef Ellen was fantastic. She has such an impressive rolodex of appetizers and meals she can prepare, and she worked with me to customize a perfect menu for the evening. We chose 5 hors d'oeuvres, and she surprised me on the night with two additional ones on top of the five we'd chosen! Every single appetizer was delicious. From there, we did a sit down dinner that included a soup (amazing butternut squash), salad (the best salad my guests have ever had - who knew a salad could be that life changing!), and then guests had a choice of filet mignon or arctic char for their main course. Both main courses were so thoughtfully prepared, perfectly cooked, and the presentation for everything was stunning. On top of that, there was a mini pizza delivery crisis for my 5 and 7 year old nephews who were over, and Chef Ellen graciously offered to make pasta for them -- all while preparing a 20-person dinner. What more could you ask for?! After dinner, she also surprised me with mini passed desserts :) Chef Ellen also had brought a server with her, who was professional, charismatic and on top of everything to ensure the night went smoothly. To sum it up, Chef Ellen helped make the night so special, and I was thrilled with all of her hard work. If you're looking for delicious food, beautiful presentation, great service, and a hell of a personality, don't hesitate to book Chef Ellen. I am so glad I found her and am already looking forward to having her back for another event!

Pinch Food Design 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
New York, NY

    We have nothing against conventional catering, it's just not what we do. Our clients deserve a taste of something new + unpredictable, an experience that leverages the best food with never-before-seen presentation. So we created Pinch to impress, entertain + inspire with food as delicious as it is daring + design as inviting as it is innovative. Led by groundbreaking chef/designer duo of Bob Spiegel + TJ Girard, Pinch is driven by an uncompromising commitment to incite surprise, anticipation + delight with every bite while wowing our clients + their guests with imaginative presentation combinations that redefine the art of celebration.

    We were looking for something special with our catering. We didn't want the typical wedding meal that we've had so many times. We wanted delicious food but a unique, creative approach. Pinch was great! Over 6 months later, friends are still talking about the stations we had at our cocktail hour, the interesting presentation of our salad course, our passed around desserts, and our delicious signature cocktail. Plus, Carly and her team are amazing to work with. They're patient and tons of fun.

    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.

    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. The work that they do in the name of sustainability is inspiring and I always recommend them to my couples looking to lessen the environmental impact of their weddings. I cannot say enough great things about Purslane!

    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.

    We've been fortunate to have found Dierdre ten years back... she has exceeded expectations for parties, graduations, other events, does it all, the food is amazing, her staff great. I can't recommend her highly enough.

    ONTHEMARC Events 
    Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
    • Serves New York, NY

    ONTHEMARC is a contemporary, full-service caterer with extensive experience in off-site catered events. The culinary experience is at the heart of everything we do. We handle every detail to bring your vision to life —from custom menus and logistics to staffing and artful presentation—creating an event where you and your guests feel truly celebrated.

    As soon as we visited On the Marc for our food tasting, we knew that the food would be fantastic—and more on that in a minute—but OTM really set itself apart with the service. They greeted our guests with flavored waters when they arrived (hugely helpful for a mid-summer wedding), had servers ready with drinks and food as soon as cocktail hour started, prepared an appetizer platter for a quick private moment as newlyweds, and much much more. A few things stick out over all though: first, the servers were so attentive that they realized a friend of mine was absolutely smashing one of the appetizers and kept bringing those to her (even learning to take the mint leaf off as she did). Second, they rolled with the punches as we realized we may have screwed up some food placards, accommodating our request to check with each guest to make sure we had it right. Third, they had servers march out all at the same time to bring courses during dinner services, a super-professional touch which gave the service a white-glove-service feel. The food was delicious, and everyone kept commenting on it (even on the dance floor where they brought desserts!!). Overall, the food was amazing, the only thing better than the food was the service, and we highly recommend OTM to anyone considering them!

Our team handles setup, service, and cleanup so you can stay present and enjoy your day.

    We had a private wedding ceremony and got referred to Avenue29 as a caterer who would understand the specific details of what we wanted to make our food as magical as the rest of our day. When meeting with Nicholas we were thoroughly impressed by his calm and confident presence, his detailed questions and the vision he helped us co-create. We didn’t want a traditional buffet so he came up with a beautiful 4-corner display so each section could have their own semi-private food display. His attention to detail, professionalism and personality were nothing like we had experienced before. We had a beautiful tasting, he went over every line item with us thoroughly, and made sure it was the right package for our wedding. And the delivery on our wedding day was exactly what we’d imagined and more. Amazing food, service, presentation, and professionalism. We could not recommend Avenue29 enough! Nicholas and his team truly went above and beyond for us!
