Joan called me back right away as she had a cancellation on the date we wanted. That was pure luck and the rest is history. Joan, her family and staff at Franklin Caterers were awesome to deal with. She made great suggestions for renting the tent and tables, took care of all the menu details as well as linens, and provided the perfect advice for setting up the bar and provided a bartender. Everyone was superbly professional, on-time, very communicative and we were able to enjoy the party with our guests which was our goal. We look forward to working with them again in the future.

Blackstone Caterers is such a fantastic caterer company! You have to book them!…read more We are from New York and had our wedding in Rhode Island. We knew we made the right choice when we booked Blackstone Caterers! Their tasting experience was very special to us and private. It was our first and only tasting and they just made us feel so important and welcomed. We worked with them for a long time because our wedding needed to be postponed due to Covid. Blackstone Caterers is elegant, classy, professional, organized, generous and very accommodating! Their food is of high quality and absolutely delicious! Our guests still cannot get over how kind every worker was and how delicious their food was! Working with Shannon and Gina was a pleasure! They helped us so much with our planning. They were very accommodating to our needs such as making adjustments to dishes for allergies. They even allowed us to bring up our favorite wine and cookies to share with our guests. I provided them with an itemized list of things that needed to be set up such as place cards, pictures, signs, and guest -give aways. They set up everything perfectly! They exceeded our expectations with everything! They even packed up our belongings with care! They even respected our no social media request. Gina and Laura were there the day of to make sure everything ran smoothly. Thank you so much for being so helpful and for making this day a dream come true! We would also like to thank Tristan who took such good care of me and my husband. He is so professional, respectful and helpful! He made sure that he provided us with everything we needed! Everyone that is part of Blackstone Caterers is amazing! You won't regret booking them! Please keep them in mind when you plan on having an event! Thank you, Blackstone Caterers for making our day perfect!

The delicious, multicourse meal (served family style - our #1 wedding vision), became the showcase of the reception. We were not surprised that each guest made a point to compliment how amazing the food and service was at our wedding. Thank you to the entire Blackstone family for being a HUGE part of our wedding day & ensuring we had our dream (even during COVID).

There was literally a lot of food left over. We had over 100 people and the only thing I kept hearing was that the corn was good. Disappointed - ask for a taste test

Joe provided great detail and recommendations to help me manage my menu and a pretty fluid number of guests. I had not hosted this many people at my house before so I specifically appreciated the guidance he provided throughout the planning process (timing etc.). The day of the event went off without a hitch, Joe and his exceptionally talented crew arrived exactly when they said they were going to and put out a great spread. I opted for traditional grilled food, so everything was cooked on site which was a nice added touch. Not having to worry about cooking or scrambling for utensils/plates/condiments really let us enjoy hosting without the hassle of manning a grill. They also cleaned up and took all the food related trash with them which was an added benefit. Food was delicious and several guests snagged a business card for their own future events. Thank you Joe and team for making our get together a memorable one for our friends and family!

He decorated the interior and exterior with colorful saris and provided other valuable input to help us customize our wedding to our liking. I would describe his food as a modern taste of Asian flavors. The food was so delicious, I wish I had leftovers to bring home. The night of the wedding, Peng Yew made the catering portion of the wedding worry-free, and we really appreciated it. You're being pulled in every direction during the wedding night, but not having to worry about one more thing was a major relief. I would highly recommend Peng Yew to anyone looking for a catering service. He can customize your event to your liking.

One guest even asked him for a sauce recipe! Pengyew was a delight to work with. When you're planning a party, You want someone else to really own their part so that you don't have to worry. I didn't worry one bit. He's funny, yet professional. And the bottom line is that he can wow guests! We had passed hors d'oeuvres: shrimp on cucumber, corncakes, tuna, scallops and more. The flavors were dynamite and the presentation was exquisite. If I lived closer, I'd have him do our holiday party. He won me over.

Regrettable and forgettable, starting with the misleading name…read more "ClambakeS of Massachusetts"? Clearly the name should just be "Clambake", because this had to be their first event. Ever. (I should also note that some people in our group thought a better name was "Clambaked".) Anyway, this was all very unfortunate given the special occasion of my Mom's big number birthday. We actually had high hopes for our lobster-bake, and in fact, their communication was relatively decent leading up to the event. On the morning of the event, however, the set-up crew showed up late (30-minutes?) and blamed it on the traffic. The thing about that is, our house is only 5.3 miles from their location.....and none of our 30 guests complained of traffic. When they did show up, they forgot the table clothes, but otherwise set things up reasonably well. When it came time to show up with the food an hour or so later, it was the same deal. They showed up about 30-minutes late and again blamed it on the traffic. I mean, if it really was the traffic the first time you have a bunch of options for the second time including leaving earlier or just taking an alternate route, right? For that matter, they could have just about walked to our house in little over an hour, so we were not buying their story in the slightest. Especially twice in as many hours. After that, things devolved. Their first miscue was to to have us serve ourselves on fairly flimsy plastic plates. As the lobsters were bigger than the plates, it was actually a bit awkward to get the plate back to one's seat without it folding in half and spilling everything. Then, finally ready to dive in, we looked around for the usual lobster-attack gear, only to find metal claw crackers (ok that's standard-fare).....and plastic utensils! No metal picks (essential), let alone lobster-scissors (optional, but highly desired, especially for an elderly crowd). Just a plastic fork and knife! Hello? Have you ever even had lobster before? Anyway, unlike the more elderly people in the room, I am in decent shape and so I wasn't going to let anything stand between me and a good lobster. I cracked open my first claw. Ok, cool. Second claw.....SNAP.....the claw-cracker actually broke in two in my hands! (A science guy at the table said the claw-crackers were made from cheap metal.) Sigh.....really? When we finally got to the point of having something in our hands that we could eat, we noticed that the butter they wanted us to use was (literally) sitting in slightly over-sized plastic thimble into which you could barely fit your thumb, let alone a lobster tail. There were plenty of other "details" missed: No bowl for your shells (so until one of the guests brought a plastic tin over you had to leave the watery shell mess on your plate while you tried to eat the rest of your food). No lobster bibs. It just seemed like every way we turned we were dealing with amateur hour. We also had comments across the board about the chicken being substantially over-cooked (however most people seemed to like the steak, and there were very good comments on the mushrooms). At the end of the day, the only reason I am not giving them a 1-star instead of a 2-star is that the staff were genuinely nice and the lobster (once you finally got to it) and steak were actually reasonably tasty. Still, we will never use these people again and we recommend you look elsewhere as well. Let them learn on someone else's dime.
