La Mila Catering & Events 

5.0

  • Serves Manhattan, NY

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.

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.

We hired chef Ellen/Renegade Outpost to provide all the food for my son's large engagement party in a cocktail lounge. They were so easy to deal with, unobtrusive when preparing and serving in a place that was not totally intended for such service, and everyone commented on how delicious and creative the food was! We felt very fortunate to have found them!

Thomas Preti Events to Savor 

5.0

  • Serves Manhattan, NY

Catering in the New York Tri-State Area since 1987 You're not just choosing a menu. You're choosing an experience. People who know caterers choose Thomas Preti for the events that matter. When we promise grilled grouper, that’s precisely what we serve. Grilled perfectly. Served impeccably. We’ve been delighting our clients and their guests for over 30 years. We’ve seen fads come and go. We don’t follow fads. We focus on what really matters. Real food, prepared in surprising and delicious ways. Preti is famous for delivering what we promise, flawlessly.

After struggling to find a NYC caterer that I felt could execute my vision, I decided to give Thomas Preti Events a call before I settled on someone else. Thank god I did, from the second I connected with Tom I knew I finally found my match. He was professional, down to earth but elevated and got exactly what I was trying to accomplish. After working with him I can now say his food and staff emulate all of that! My guest still rave about my delicious chic food and cocktails. I highly recommend Tom and his team!

Abigail Kirsch Catering 

5.0

  • Serves Manhattan, NY

The seeds of the business go back to the 1960s when Abigail started a cooking school from the basement of her home. Her entrepreneurial spirit and early success drove her to quickly expand the school to a retail outlet, and few years later, her husband, Bob, sold his company to join her in launching the catering business. Their son, Jim, joined the couple in 1980 and has been running the business with Partner & Chef Alison Awerbuch since the early 2000s. Through the years, the DNA of Abigail Kirsch has never changed. Rooted in the belief that, “We are only as good as our last event,” its culture centers on creativity, planning and flawless execution. The company’s mission is to execute events in which the client feels like a guest and guests feel as though they are in someone’s home.

Abigail Kirsch is expert at what they do. They are not just a venue or a caterer, they are trustworthy partners who do not miss a beat, provide so much value to their couples and clients, and are truly amazing people. You'll miss them after the wedding! What struck me most, in all the quotes I've seen whether for work or my own wedding, Abigail Kirsch makes it easy for you. Their costs make sense, there are no fees to be figured out on your own, they are clear and diligent from the get-go and through to the very end.

KGFare Catering & Events 

5.0

  • Serves Manhattan, NY

In 2008 Josh Griffiths and Peter Killy decided it was time to create without compromise. They launched KG Fare, offering fun, dynamic and memorable full-service catering and event experiences. Hospitality without the attitude. Entertaining curations that raise the bar for food and drinks.

We enjoyed collaborating with KG Fare on our dream wedding menu. They were flexible and supportive of our wedding vision, especially during the COVID period. They spent time with us to go over every single detail from the texture and flavor of the food to safety measures to the overall set up of tables, decorations and more. Weeks leading up to our big, special event, we were in constant communication via phone and email. On the big day, Peter and Josh and the crew were super attentive to us and our guests. The food was such a hit that our guests kept talking about it for days after the event. To this day, we still crave for everything on our menu because the food was scrumptious. KG Fare's check went beyond our expectation and made sure everything we talked about during the food tasting was incorporated on the actual event! We would work with KG Fare again in any future events that requires catering! Thank you!

Alex has amazing taste and styling skills when it comes to design details. She is extremely professional to work with and her team is super friendly and reliable. AD Catering is truly unique from any catering and planning service I have ever worked with before and anyone would be so lucky to work with them!!

Red Oyster USA 

5.0

  • Serves Manhattan, NY

We are a boutique catering business, specialized in Oystertaining people. Our Oystertainers open fresh oysters on the spot while entertaining your guests. The oysters come from carefully selected oysterfarms in the Northern East coast of US/Canada. With their outgoing personality, our Oystertainers know how to persuade almost anybody to eat oysters. The founder, Matijn Wijn, started the company 20 years ago in the Netherlands. He is driven by a passion for oysters and when he introduced Oystertainment® it was an overnight success. We also run oyster bars at world leading art fairs like Art Basel and TEFAF. Let's Oystertain you!

If you have the opportunity to book Red Oyster USA for your event you 100% should! First off the booking experience was above and beyond with customer service, answering all of my questions promptly and with ease. My husband and I renewed our vows on a rooftop in New York City December 30. My husband and a lot of our guests enjoy oysters so I thought this would be the perfect addition to our reception! We had the pleasure of having Sophia as our Oystertainer for the evening. She was AMAZING!!! She was extremely friendly and helpful! I was not much of an oyster person before, but she had me try them a couple of different ways and I did find one that actually worked really well for me. If it wasn’t for her knowledge and guiding I probably would’ve never tried them and now I am a fan! The Oystertainer was really another amazing staple to our evening and I am so glad we were able to book them. I would book them each time I had an event if I was given the opportunity, I highly suggest you do the same!!!! You won’t regret it!!! Now I will have to wait until they expand to Oklahoma (hint,hint) to book again!
