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

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.

Combining exquisite food, innovative presentation and flawless service, Blackstone is regarded as southern New England's premier caterer.

WOW. Blackstone is AMAZING and we had an incredible experience with them as our wedding caterer. From our first conversation through the wedding day, the team was professional, responsive, and attentive to every detail. We worked with Gina and she was incredible! She explained everything thoroughly, helped us pick an amazing menu, and also coordinated all of the rentals for the day. They were really accommodating to any needs and their menus are all super customizable. Her attention to detail and expertise made the planning process stress-free and helped make our day so memorable. We couldn’t have done it without her! The food was absolutely incredible, guests are still talking about it! Each dish was served hot and was beautifully presented. The entire day of staff was amazing and provided seamless service throughout the evening. They even had a dedicated server (Mason was amazing!) to bring us food and drinks which helped us fully enjoy the celebration. We highly recommend Blackstone to any couple looking for exceptional food and outstanding service for their special day!

With over 10 years of catering experience our team has put together a fresh menu that everyone will be sure to enjoy. Please contact us with any questions or inquiries, we are excited to be working with you for your next event!

We loved our experience with Island Time. Our guests raved about the food, which is what matters, but on top of that, the drinks were amazing, and the staff was incredible and so kind. They did end up being about a half-hour later than we initially agreed upon, and one of our upgrades as far as a second choice for meals was forgotten, but once we reached out about it, they responded immediately, and we were refunded right away. Even with this, I would not hesitate to book them again for any future function.

SYB Catering & Bar Services 
Rating: 5.0 (8 reviews)
  • Starts at $4,999
  • Serves Providence, RI

Your multicultural catering experts! We take pride in providing exceptional service and incredible cuisine from around the world! Our authentic multicultural offerings set us apart, allowing couples the freedom to fuse different cultural cuisines to create a unique and personalized experience for their guests. Couples from different backgrounds can now share both of their cultures through one catering company.

About 5-6 months before our wedding, our original caterer re-quoted our pricing that I had signed over a year ago and it had increased by almost 15k! I was so distraught and stressed, as you can imagine. Luckily I found Soraya through a Facebook wedding group after I had asked for a second opinion. SHE SAVED MY WEDDING DAY. My husband and I are Cambodian and Chinese and trying to find any upscale asian caterer in the NorthShore was darn near impossible. I had my heart set on an upscale multi-course asian banquet menu. We ended up with 10 courses! Soraya made it happen and all the food was made on site at our venue in Peabody (the Olio). Our guests could not stop raving about how delicious everything was! To think I almost went with drop catering as I thought that was my only option. Thank goodness I found Soraya! As anyone who has ever thrown a big event knows, the food will make or break an event. And Soraya's food MADE our wedding a huge success. Soraya made sure fried foods were crispy, hot foods were HOT, and each table service was flawlessly delivered. Even our foodie families were happy with the food and were so surprised at how authentic everything tasted. We had menu items that were Chinese and Cambodian. I would hire Soraya and her team again, and again, and again. She kept me at ease and made sure everything was flawlessly executed. THANK YOU again for everything Soraya. You have mine and my families deepest appreciation.
