If I could give Love and Smoke BBQ 10 stars I would. From inquiry to execution, Mark and his team…read morewere thorough, communicative, and kind to work with. We opted for Love and Smoke to cater our wedding anniversary. On the day of the event, they arrived with ample time to setup and paced the service in an efficient way that kept the food fresh and our guests happy. We opted for the links, brisket, ribs as our meats. You really can't go wrong with any of these. Tender, juicy, smokey, and fresh. The sides were also a great compliment to the meats. The chipotle coleslaw was a fan favorite. I thought Mark's carving service was a great way to elevate the experience and I liked that he asked each guest which part of the brisket they preferred. Through the night and days later, we continued to receive positive feedback on the food. We will definitely be using Love and Smoke for future parties. If you're thinking of having BBQ for your event, Love and Smoke is the way to go!!

We found Love & Smoke bbq thru Yelp and couldn't be happier with our experience! From the very…read morestart, the process of coordinating a corporate catering event was seamless. Communication leading up to the event was consistent and clear and everything was outlined so we knew exactly what to expect. On the day of the event, Mark and Kathy arrived early with plenty of time for a smooth and professional setup. Kathy's setup with the plates and utensil and vegetarian corner were so well thought out! They came fully prepared and ready to serve some delicious bbq. We catered for around 60 people and selected the brisket, pork baby back ribs, alongside coleslaw, potato salad, and green salad. For our vegetarian colleagues, we selected the black bean burgers, which were a thoughtful and flavorful touch. A standout highlight was the brisket carving station, which was a total crowd pleaser. Mark's meticulous attention to detail and dedication to his craft really stood out. He refuses to compromise on quality by pre slicing brisket into trays. Instead, he carved it fresh on site and the taste speaks for itself. We received an overwhelmingly positive response from the entire team- both meat lovers and veggie eaters alike. From the service to the setup to the food itself, Love & Smoke exceed expectations. Highly, HIGHLY recommend!

Aloha Catering has some great reviews, which is what initially drew us to them. Unfortunately, our…read moreexperience with Richard was challenging--as others have also mentioned. We submitted a catering quote request, and to our surprise, Richard called to discuss it. Unfortunately, the call was not the kind of interaction you'd hope for when trying to plan an event. It left us wondering--why is Richard the one calling back customers instead of Minh? I'm writing this in the hopes that Minh will reach out to me directly with a contact number so we can move forward and work with Aloha Catering. Otherwise, we'll need to start exploring other catering options. I will update this review once I hear back from Minh.

Vegan options this time that I tried were grilled portobello mushroom, veggie burger, bbq beans, and then they also provided some fruit. The mushroom was decent, juicy and well seasoned, however veggie burger was quite dry and flavorless on its own. I probably liked the beans the best. My coworkers who had the meats also felt it was just fine. They also had some bread rolls which I was told were kind of hard, not soft.

Sheldon was fabulous to work with, coming up with a great menu out of the box. Some of our guests have celiac, and others are lactose-intolerant; all food was perfectly labeled so these people felt safe eating it. Many guests approached me to rave about the food afterwards, and this is a foodie crowd. Even the recommended beer and wines were just right. They set up the area perfectly, and the staff, overseen by the attentive and sensitive Roma, and were able to accommodate a few last-minute requests (e.g., an electrical outlet and extension cord; rearranging chairs to be out of the sun; extensive speeches that could have eaten into food time). We had a number of updates to our requests as close-in as days before the event, and all were accommodated with a smile. I add that I set this whole thing up from FL and CT, never setting foot on the property before the event. And all went off without a hitch. I recommend Melon's wholeheartedly!

We wanted food at our wedding that reflected our cultures (and our favorite foods). We received catering contracts from several caterers, but Melon's was the only one where we really felt like they had worked with our ideas. Chef Stephen told me at the first call outright that he couldn't do "the most authentic", but he could make delicious food. He was right -- and all my guests (most of whom dislike fusion) were super pleased. People literally raved to me first about the food of all the things about my wedding, especially the red-cooked duck leg and the baklava. 2022 was a crazy year for weddings, and Melons was super busy and a bit slow in responding through the first half of that until the summer. So just be aware of that when you work with this vendor. We booked them without a tasting and pleased at our tasting to discover that we had chosen well. (And were again very pleased at our wedding when the food was exactly as it was at the tasting, except they had taken into account our feedback as well so it was even better!) Finally, the servers were all kind and so courteous and happy for us on the day of. The only sad thing is that I can't eat my wedding food again, to be honest.
