Awarded Best of Zola
MAHFY has been there when I lacked the time to prepare my own meals at home and when I attended large celebratory gatherings. MAHFY prepares a large range of recipes and food types. I personally love their savory beef burgundy and succulent salmon. Their food is prepared with love which you can taste in every mouthful. The ambiance they create around the set up of their entrees and sides is a feast for the eyes also. I highly recommend MAHFY to make your next meal or cater your next affair.

La Mila Catering & Events 

5.0

  • Starts at $75
  • Serves Lawrenceville, NJ

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
As a classically trained chef, I hope my review of La Mila inspires anyone doing their “homework” to earn an A — for themselves, especially their guests. I’ve been to many weddings, and the food served is often an edible afterthought. How many times, when leaving a wedding, were you asked, “What did you think about the food?” — and you replied with shrugged shoulders, “Eh, it was okay.” That is not the case with La Mila. A huge shoutout and thank you to Sandy, who was able to pull together a phenomenal menu all in a very timely timeline. Sandy was honest, upfront, and available around our busy work schedule. The day before and the day of, Sandy was there to help with setup — from the big asks, like helping move furniture, to the small tasks—like lighting lanterns and ensuring no glass of champagne for our toast was served empty! Given our wedding took place at our home, we thoroughly appreciated Sandy staying late to clean the kitchen, empty overflowing garbage, and make sure our home was not a war zone when we woke up the next morning! Elie’s execution of our menu was stellar. As a classically trained chef, I was thoroughly impressed by the well-run machine Elie could create within our garage, the makeshift kitchen for the event. It rained on our wedding day, and we were blessed with a beautiful, vivid rainbow—right before dinner service. This blessing brought all our guests outside for 30 minutes—right before dinner. A major wrench in the moment-by-moment timeline. I know how this, for many chefs, can be a disruptive, unexpected delay—but Elie did not miss a beat. All of our guests raved about the food—notably friends who I graduated with from the Culinary Institute of America. One thing I learned in culinary school is that you “eat with your eyes first.” Simply put, Heidi’s presentation skills are on point! Her attention to detail in creating beautiful food displays, notably for our cocktail hour, showed the care, thought and love we wanted our guests to feel. Sandy, Elie, and Heidi may be the stars of La Mila’s show—but the success of our wedding would not have been possible without their hard-working and friendly staff. One of the elements that sold us on choosing La Mila, was their well-stocked arsenal of kitchen equipment they brought on site. (Most caterers require you rent equipment separately, which is not only more expensive, but introduces a whole new dimension of moving parts.) La Mila was also able to include chinaware, silverware, and the majority of our glassware! They even included soft drinks, water, condiments, cocktail napkins, etc. — all of this, and they still came in under what we were quoted by other caterers. Thank you, Sandy, Elie, Heidi, and the entire La Mila Catering & Events team, for making our wedding day what it was. Your talent, professionalism, and experience were felt by everyone who took part in our special day.

Having been a customer of Renegade Outpost for a few years in a row, I think of Ellen, the chef, as my winning lottery ticket that keeps on winning. Each time I find more reasons to be grateful to Ellen: her expertise, professionalism, perfect execution, and plating that's worthy of a picture in MOMA. Ellen's menu repertoire is bottomless, yet she always accommodated me with the off-the-menu choices, as requested. She not only steps in at the right moment when attention is needed, she also anticipates the need, moving like a beautiful ballerina to assist the guests. She is THE Master Chef who serves her delicious, swallow-your tongue dishes at perfect intervals and with portions that are plentiful, even for a re-heat of the leftovers the next day. Ellen never once left without leaving my kitchen spotless. She rocks!!!! Thank you, Ellen. I am honored to be your customer. Mila

We had an absolutely amazing experience working with Jillicious! My husband and I are major foodies so we knew we didn’t want to have standard wedding food at our reception. We started searching for wedding caterers that would work with us to customize the perfect menu for our wedding day. Jillicious did not disappoint! 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!

We came across Chef’s Culinary Journey who was highly recommended by a close friend at the very last minute in the mist of Covid-19. Paul helped us every step of the way, he made a very stressful process serene and easy, accommodated late meetings after 7 pm, due to my hectic schedule. Paul recommendations from the florist, DJ, photographer and venue were spot on. The Boulevard grand ballroom was perfect, everything from the lighting, décor, flower arrangements, to the friendly staff and bridal attendants. Chef’s Culinary Journey food was amazing! From presentation, flavors to execution were perfect. Everyone was raving and boasting about everything they had. The staff was great and very attentive. This was such a great wedding, better than expected, I had so much fun. Everyone complimented on how the day went so efficient and how everything and our needs were accommodated for everyone at the wedding.
