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.

Steven Brown Caterers 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
  • Serves Rockaway Beach, NY

Serving the New York area since 1991, Steven Brown Caterers provides unmatched creative cuisine, professional service and exceptional value. Our individual approach means that our couples receive the personalized and dedicated touch they deserve for their big day! Our experienced team of event planners are extremely passionate about their work. Attentive and precise, they will make your vision, big, or small into a reality.

“In my position as the assistant to the Chairman & Founder of a Fortune 1000 company, Steven Brown Caterers is the only caterer we use. Over the years the entire company from the chefs to the wait staff, to the management have become so much more than co-workers. I count them all as friends. So, when I married Frank in 2013, there was no question about who would be coming to spoil me on that special day. The food has always been the best in the city, but food is different things to different people, so I was anxious to see if my guests enjoyed it as much as I always have. That question was answered when half of them left clutching their contact details in hand. The other half called or e-mailed later to ask me for their contact details. 😉 Of course, the food was not the only thing that went right. Everything. Went right. From the table and tabletop rentals to the wait staff doing their usual magic by making every single guest feel as if they were the only person at the party. I’m not exaggerating when I say they got as many compliments as the bride, and nothing made me happier. Peace of mind on your wedding day is a luxury not many have, but we had it and we owe that to Steven Brown Caterers.”

  • Serves Rockaway Beach, NY

Dish Food & Events is an award-winning, full-service catering and events company serving all of New York City and The Hamptons for over 15 years. Recognized for our warm hospitality and delicious food, Dish creates remarkable weddings, social gatherings, and corporate events. What truly differentiates Dish is our diverse team. We are committed to creating an awesome place to work while taking great care of each other, our partners and our guests.

Working with Evalyn, Cortney, and the team at Dish was a truly incomparable experience! I had the pleasure of getting to know Dish a few years back at my first job and had told my contact at the time, Bonnie, that I would definitely be back when it was time for me to host my big event - my wedding. After reconnecting with the Dish team, in particular speaking with Evalyn, we couldn't have felt more confident that it was the right fit for our big day. From the personalized menu, to the in house tasting, and the amazing day of coordinator, Cortney, the most important and expensive party we ever threw (and likely ever will) was in the best hands. When any changes or adjustments came up the team was eager to help make our vision come to life. A few weeks before when I wanted to do another itinerary run through, Cortney, was not just game, but so enthusiastic and supportive. As small things came up day of, Evalyn and Cortney were on it and as we were packing up, the whole Dish team helped us pack up and carry out our numerous flower arrangements. We truly couldn't have pulled this off without Dish and are so grateful for their partnership. Thank you, Dish!

Elm Roastery 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
  • Serves Rockaway Beach, NY

We are a Queens-based community roastery that brings craft hot and iced drinks to the greater NYC area. Started with a mission to build community at our brick and mortar in Elmhurst, we expanded to do mobile so that we can be a part of building community through the connection of coffee throughout New York, New Jersey and Connecticut.

My wife and I absolutely loved having Elm Roastery's coffee cart at our wedding. It's a unique addition to a wedding, perfect for coffee lovers. I have to preface that we knew Elm Roastery very well before our wedding. They've established a place in the Elmhurst community for their excellent beverages made with a rotating selection of beans freshly-roasted on-site, delicious pastries, and for their dedication to creating a special space for community events and partnerships. We often frequented their cafe before our wedding, and every time we return for coffee now, it brings back warm memories. We were ecstatic to discover their coffee cart service, and quickly booked them for our wedding. We added-on ube lattes and 40 almond croissants, and custom cups & banner. They more than delivered, the design was elegant and charming! Our guests quickly snatched up the croissants, and were lined up for the coffee throughout the booking. It was a huge hit. We used our newlyweds' privilege to skip the line and managed to grab coffee and croissants for a much needed break in our fun but busy day. Compared to the gut-wrenching quotes from our other vendors (catering, photo, makeup), it was clear they offered a great value, without the severe "wedding tax" you'll see from your other vendors. It was a no-brainer for us. You won't regret hiring them for your wedding; we certainly didn't. They were one of the most memorable amenities at our wedding -- a treat for us, as much as it is for our guests. And you'll be happy to know you're supporting a small-business that is truly dedicated to improving the local community.

I hired Ellen and her crew for an office party.  I had to do all the planning remotely due to not living in the state where the party was taking place.

We worked with Chef Jill to put together the most delicious menu of both apps and main courses. Everyone we spoke to after the wedding couldn’t stop raving about how good the food was. It honestly rivaled many of our favorite restaurants in NYC. In addition to the food, Chef Jill and her staff were amazing. They were so responsive throughout the whole wedding process and offered so many great recommendations. On the wedding day, the staff were very helpful with getting the rentals in order, setting up the tables, etc. We also had some guests thank us for how allergy conscious the wedding and staff were. We're so grateful to Jillicious for bringing our vision to life and couldn’t recommend them more! They truly contributed to an absolutely perfect wedding day!

Chef Mellanee and The Fork Goes on the Left absolutely blew us (and our guests) away. We wanted an elevated take on African and Caribbean comfort foods, and she delivered beyond expectations. The crab cakes during cocktail hour were a hit (people are still talking about them!), and our sweetheart meal — a rich shellfish stew — was unforgettable. I genuinely wish I could have that meal again. What really stood out was Chef Melanie’s professionalism and care. From our private tasting( photos attached ) to day-of service, everything was seamless. Her communication was clear, her staff was friendly and attentive, and she worked so collaboratively with us — even down to helping with mixers for our bar setup. I have multiple food allergies, and her team went above and beyond to accommodate them safely without compromising on taste or presentation. And as a final touch, she surprised us with a thoughtful card and gift — such a sweet gesture that perfectly captured the warmth she brings to her work. If you’re looking for a caterer who delivers both flavor and heart, The Fork Goes on the Left is it.

Starting their careers in the restaurant and food industry, Elie & Heidi Hanna decided to utilize their unique experiences and create their own vision of a full service event company. La Mila is named after their daughter, Milana, who provides them with limitless inspiration and motivation.

Awarded Best of Zola
This review is a tad long so bear with me. I worked with La Mila Catering for my sister’s wedding which was held on 27 July 2024. While planning my wedding a few years ago I knew what to expect and what questions to ask. What I didn’t expect was working with such a lovely and genuine team. I worked with Sandy specifically for catering services only. She’s spunky, lively, knowledgeable, and accommodating. Working with her has been a pleasure and I felt as if I were talking to one of my best friends. Sandy is a great salesperson. She not only explains what La Mila offers but she does it in a way that is transparent and has no unexpected costs and “fine print”. She communicates well and is direct, which I appreciate. She’s a talker and I don’t mean that negatively. She makes you feel like family most sincerely. In terms of planning and coordination, Sandy was excellent and they’re lucky to have her. Menu: When creating the menu my sister wanted Mediterranean food. Now, I believe that their specialty is Mediterranean cuisine, but they do not shy away from other cuisines. Their menu is extensive and will cater to anyone’s taste. Skies the limit! We had quite a bit of offerings for Cocktail hour, Dinner, and Dessert. We were able to have a tasting which helped us narrow down if what was selected previously was what they wanted for the day of the wedding. There we met Elie (E-Lee NOT El-lee) and Heidi, the owners, and Sandy in person. Elie is the head chef and knows what he’s doing in the kitchen. Everything was cooked to perfection; delicious tasting and the portions were filling. Aside from the food it was obvious that Elie and Heidi work hard for their business and are truly dedicated. Day of the wedding: Elie, Heidi and their team worked based on the wedding timeline that I created. They were on time to serve all their food. I can’t tell you how many times I saw Elie walking back and forth to check on food and to bring food. That guy was moving! Heidi did all of the cocktail and dessert table placement and more. They are a hardworking team and I highly recommend them. From start to finish it was easy and perfectly executed. Point blank the food was delicious and I wish they had a restaurant so I could eat there all the time. LOL Thank you again for your friendship, delicious food and professionalism. *I wish I took pictures.

Marlow Events 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
  • Starts at $16
  • Serves Rockaway Beach, NY

Marlow Events offers full service catering from the Marlow Collective, a group of New York hospitality brands including the restaurants Borgo, Diner, Marlow & Sons, Roman’s, Achilles Heel, as well as Marlow & Daughters, She Wolf Bakery, and Stranger Wines.

My husband and I are food people, and from the start, we knew we wanted our wedding to feel like hosting a large, intimate dinner party rather than a traditional catered event. Everyone says wedding food is never great—we took that as a challenge. Marlow Events ultimately delivered a meal our guests are still talking about (especially the carrots, and the She Wolf bread, which reached near-legendary status). When we began our venue search, food was our starting point. Through some Instagram sleuthing, we discovered that Marlow Events catered at Shell’s Loft—and given how much we adore their restaurants (Marlow & Daughters, Borgo, Roman’s), it felt like a natural fit. Once we confirmed they were fully integrated with the venue, it felt like a no-brainer. Our initial tasting was exciting and reassuring, and we felt confident moving forward based on the quality of the food and hospitality. We had a very specific vision and requested a few nuanced elements—specialty cheeses, particular preparations, and thoughtful details. Some of these were beautifully executed, others evolved differently than expected, but overall it was a collaborative process. On the wedding day itself, the food was excellent. Guests raved about the meal, the pacing was thoughtful, and the experience aligned with exactly what we hoped to create—warm, generous, and centered around great food. That’s what we’ll remember most. That said, future couples should be aware that Marlow Events operates under a unique contract structure, and fees can be higher than typical industry standards. While we had a wonderful experience working with our original contact, the later planning stages introduced some challenges—particularly around fee clarity and flexibility—which required more back-and-forth than anticipated. These conversations were not always handled with the same level of grace we experienced earlier in the process, and navigating them took patience. In the end, the meal and experience were truly special, and we’re grateful for the food we shared with our friends and family. If food is central to your wedding vision and you’re excited by a restaurant-driven approach, Marlow Events can deliver something memorable—just be sure to review the contract carefully and allow extra time for alignment in the final planning stretch

Cento Percento

The phrase "cento percento" was born in the heart of Florence, Italy with the simple idea of bringing Tuscan style food to New York. It has since evolved into an experience like no other, including traditional antipasti, hot and cold main dishes, panini and decadent desserts, including pastries and soft serve gelato. Fresh ingredients and tradition are a reflection of Italy's love and passion for serving only the finest foods to their guests. At Cento Percento, we strive to uphold that tradition and provide you with a 100% (cento percento) unforgettable experience.

Nik from Cento Percento was amazing to work with, and the food was absolutely delicious! They were very flexible to accommodate any dietary restrictions, and were always very responsive and helpful along the way. The charcuterie board makes an amazing centerpiece, as well as fresh and delicious. Centro Percento was the perfect catering option for our small intimate wedding, 100% would book again!

Our knishes are made with 100% vegan and 100% kosher ingredients and are nut free and dairy free, making them inclusive for a wide range of dietary needs. Pricing starts at $36 per guest for a min of 25 guests and comes with about 2.5 cocktail knishes per person (25 guests = ~65 knishes). Prices per person goes down with higher number of guests. Accommodates up to 250 ppl.

Hiring Shelby and the Kniche knish cart for our cocktail hour was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very first email she was organized, responsive, and excited about our vision. On the day of the wedding she arrived early, set up quickly, and was such a warm, fun presence. The cart itself was adorable and instantly drew a crowd. We had multiple different food stations and the knish cart was by far the most popular because people had never seen anything like it! Guests loved that they could customize their knishes. My husband was obsessed with the everything bagel seasoning and hot honey combo. We had multiple guests tell us it was the best cocktail hour food they had ever had. It totally transformed the atmosphere. Instead of people awkwardly standing around, everyone was chatting in line, comparing toppings, and taking photos. Shelby is a true professional and also just a joy to be around. Cannot recommend her enough!

Stuf'd 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
  • Starts at $65
  • Serves Rockaway Beach, NY

As a kid, Rebecca could be found in the kitchen cooking with either her Mom or Grandma. Traveling to Albany was always a treat, as her favorite dish to eat was Nan's French toast. While studying at NYU, Rebecca came up with the concept of STUF'D to fulfill the need for a savory French toast, as it was yet to be done. She decided to start the business as a food truck in 2016, as a way to keep her brand more mobile. Since then, we have evolved into a full-service catering company, offering a variety of sandwiches, sliders, and cocktail bites, and serving events that range from weddings and birthday parties to large-scale events!

Stuf'd really went the extra mile to make our wedding special. The team provided thorough, individualized attention every step of the way, allowing us to feel at ease knowing the food would be exactly what we were hoping for. They even came to view the space well in advance of the wedding to make sure the day would run smoothly. Our guests could not stop raving about the quality of food, which struck a perfect balance between casual and formal. We're very grateful to have worked with such a talented and dedicated catering team.
