Saltbox catered our wedding in rural Vermont a few weeks ago, and my husband and I (as well as our…read moreguests) couldn't be happier! My husband and I are both vegetarian and good food obsessed, so when we first started planning our wedding, we knew good food was a top priority. It was important to us to have a vegetarian wedding that was delicious and vegetable-focused (and not just boring pastas or tofu steaks). We also knew that lots of our guests were meat-eaters and we wanted to make sure everyone walked away excited about the food. Well, Saltbox completely pulled it off. They worked patiently with us at every step. We gave them the adjective "Ottolenghi-esque" at the beginning and a few other notes about our taste, and they ran with it from there, delivering a draft menu that was amazing and then revising it according to our feedback. Throughout, they were easy to work with and extremely professional, and they pulled off of the details on the day beautifully, with everyone leaving happily stuffed and thrilled. (They even accommodated our gluten-free and dairy-free guests with delicious alternatives.) The waitstaff was also fantastic and helped ensure that my husband and I got enough to eat amidst all the busy-ness and dancing. Now, just a few weeks later, we are constantly hearing from friends and family about how great the food was (the best they've ever had by some accounts), asking for Saltbox's name, and remarking about how they completely forgot that they were eating vegetarian for the night because every dish was so delicious. I have been to lots of weddings and frankly, most of the food is not memorable. Saltbox's food absolutely was.

The catering staff and chef produced and provided great food that were the highlight of the event; I heard from everyone how much they enjoyed it (even had some on-call colleagues who gladly answered our calls because they knew they were going to be fed great food during their shift). Forklift is a top recommendation for any high-caliber catered event you might need.

We hired Martha to cater a reception for my mothers memorial service. While we found her rates to…read morebe expensive and her packages confusing to understand, she was recommended to us. During the service, she took it upon herself to decide we didn't have enough food (even though everyone was not planning to attend the reception) increase the amount of food she was going to serve and later sent us an outrageous bill for her decision. This bill was for $12k. And this was for servers, finger sandwiches, cookies, flower arrangements and punch for 150 people (she decided to make it for 300 without asking us). While we disputed her UNILATERAL decision to change the contract post agreement, she emailed my grieving father and guilt tripped him. Insisting she was merely doing him a favor as he didn't want him to feel embarrassed running out of food and that she wanted to provide a reception that my mother would want. When we sent a check for the original, contracted amount, she refused to cash it and insisted we pay the full amount. We compromised and met her in the middle. I sense she takes it upon herself to do this when she wants and sees nothing wrong in over billing grieving spouses. Possibly the elderly who give in to her. So I would not recommend her. The food was fine (forgettable) but her actions were criminal in my view.
