I had the chance to work with Renee at one of my client's engagement party where she managed the bar and food service for a big swanky summer barbeque. The setup was smooth, her team was incredibly competent, and the bar was a major hit with the guests. While the food for this particular event was casual picnic fare, everything was served efficiently and on time. I've also had the pleasure of trying Renee's hors d'oeuvres at other events, and they were absolutely delicious - she's clearly a talented chef with a great sense for elevated flavors. Her professionalism and ability to manager large crowd really stood out.

Chef Ellen and her team did an outstanding job executing our office party for 125 guests. We had a fall themed menu (including Apple Pie Fried Ravioli & Grilled Mushroom w/ Sausage Gorgonzola Mascarpone! YUM!) and Chef Ellen made it extra special by dressing the room with fall florals, chalkboard signs & wooden boxes for elevation. Her staff was very professional (shout to Tom, whose Hospitality went a long way!). We will definitely look forward to having Chef Ellen & her team back at our office in the future!

Jillicious Foods & Events 
Rating: 5.0 (16 reviews)
  • Starts at $20,000
  • Serves Queens, 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.

Fig & Pig Catering 
Rating: 5.0 (10 reviews)
  • Starts at $170
  • Serves Queens, NY

Fig & Pig continues to be a creative, quality-driven catering company devoted to showcasing seasonal ingredients and producing exceptional, food-focused events. Our team of professionally-trained chefs cook with dedication and pride to create thoughtful meals that are both comforting and modern. We work closely with our clients to build curated menus and distinctive settings that reflect the personality and vision of their event. At Fig & Pig, the service is as important as the food. Our front of house team drives the success of each event and they take very seriously, the needs of our guests.

I have nothing but effusive praise for Fig & Pig! They were the best catering team imaginable for our fall wedding in the Catskills. Holly prepares truly delicious meals, with huge crowd pleasers including the heritage smoked chicken, lasagne, and the cocktail hour crab cakes. Throughout the planning process Tammy was always quick to respond, and eager to incorporate unique little twists. We had homemade cookies we wanted to serve alongside Fig & Pig's delightful sticky toffee pudding and strawberry shortcake -- and they ensured it happened seamlessly. The bartenders and waitstaff brought fantastic, upbeat energy to the party. I can't overstate how thoughtful Holly and Tammy were every step of the way. Just one example: Fig & Pig had a small tray of appetizers set out for us in a private area following the ceremony, so my husband and I could savor a brief moment alone and enjoy all of the canapes before joining our guests at cocktail hour. Fig & Pig's food is magnificent. The specialty cocktails are stunners. I would recommend this team to anyone -- they are absolutely stellar.

Purslane 
Rating: 4.5 (8 reviews)
  • Serves Queens, NY

Purslane is part of The Oberon Group, a Brooklyn neighborhood-focused restaurant group with a commitment to sustainability. We started Purslane in 2012 as a way to serve our community outside of our restaurants. Sustainability wasn’t part of our origin story, but we realized we had an opportunity to make a difference in one of the most wasteful industries out there. We are seasoned experts in executing corporate events of all sizes, ranging from galas and banquets, to private dinners, to multi-day conferences for hundreds of guests, to weekly lunch drop-offs for your whole office.

Awarded Best of Zola
Purslane was a dream to work with, and we could not have imagined a more perfect caterer for our wedding. The food was to die for. So many of our guests told us it was the best food they've ever had at a wedding—and we agree! Choosing all the food was so fun and easy, and our event manager at Purslane walked us through all our options, pointing out favorites and making accommodations to let us choose something off the standard family-style menu as well (highly recommend the short ribs with polenta!). We also had some dietary restrictions—one we were made aware of just two weeks before the wedding—and they ensured all guests had delicious options to meet all restrictions. All communication for our venue was done through Purslane too, and they helped us arrange all the rentals, create the run of show, and ensure the night ran along as planned, which it did! They went above and beyond every step of the way. They helped us figure out how to move our cocktail hour to a new space within the venue when a new exhibit went up a few weeks before our wedding that wasn't very well suited to a wedding environment. The waitstaff was so kind and made sure we always had a drink in hand, had our coats ready for us at the end of the night, and even set aside a plate of appetizers for us to be sure we could both greet all our guests and eat all our apps. Overall 10/10, we would highly recommend booking Purslane for a truly seamless night with insanely delicious food.

ONTHEMARC Events 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
  • Serves Queens, 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!

Pinch Food Design 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
  • Serves Queens, 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 worked with Pinch for our wedding at the Weylin in Brooklyn and they really exceeded our expectations and were incredible to work with. - Multicultural wedding - Pinch is one of the few caterers we've found who was able to incorporate Indian cuisine seamlessly, along with American fare, which was very important to us. And Pinch was able to do this in a way that felt authentic to us and created a menu that was balanced and complementary (pani puri and Biryani Arancini for example) - Innovative: Pinch's pop-ups during cocktail hour and dessert are very unique and were naturally a point of conversation for our guests. The crispy potato sandwiches served hanging down from an umbrella and the compressed fruit cocktails that replicated the US Open's Honey Deuce went beyond what we thought we could expect for the food at our wedding - Attention to detail: Pinch's service is quite a bit better than what we've experienced from caterers at other weddings. For instance, Pinch's team only served a table when each guest's food at a given table was ready and all plates are served simultaneously, which feels like more like what you'd experience at a higher end restaurant vs. the conveyer belt-style service you typically see at a wedding Several of our guests told us they were chasing around Pinch staff during cocktail hour to try more of the food and said that this was the best food they've ever had at a wedding.
