  • Easy to work with and amazing food

    I recently got married at Prospect Park Picnic House. Emma's Torch is one of the preferred vendors in that venue. It was an absolute pleasure working with them! I was initially a bit skeptical since catering is not their main business, but it quickly became obvious that they are very experiences and organized. The best part is that food tasted amazing! We got so many compliments on the desserts.

    We loved working with Emma's Torch for our wedding. Amanda and her entire team were incredibly thoughtful, kind, and responsive through the entire process, from our amazing tasting to our wedding day. The food was unique and delicious - we got so many complements from our guests (we particularly recommend the samosas, salads, and vegetable tagine). Emma's Torch has such an important mission and does vital work in the community - we would highly recommend them to anyone planning a wedding or any other celebration!

    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.
