I have used Creativa many times for all different types of events…read more I have used many different catering companies throughout NJ... With that being said... I'm going to make a bold statement: THE BEST CATERING COMPANY IN NJ BY FAR. Their food is some of the most creative and delicious items I have ever tasted. There is nothing that disappoints. The salmon 10/10 The sliders 10/10 The salads 10/10... Everything is really top notch and you can tell they use top notch ingredients. The service is always amazing! They literally make me feel as if I am a guest at my own party. They never want me to lift a finger, only relax and enjoy the hospitality. I'm a big believer that you get what you pay for. I don't mind paying for their food and service since I know that I will never be disappointed. I highly recommend that you use them for any catering needs. From hot tray deliveries to full service cocktail and buffet parties they will not let you down.

Additionally, the food was flavorful and well executed. Chef Dave seasons your food very well and portions perfectly. We especially loved that he customized our meal based on the flavors and foods we both like.

Our kitchen was spotless when he left*

So firstly, I have used and known Chef Renee since 2015. And before she became a super high profile…read morecelebrity chef! And she is hands down one of the best! Back then and even now! We've used her over the years (when we could get her) for multiple parties large and small, from 8 guest intimate dinners to large 100+ person gatherings. The food is top quality, delicious and she is always consistent no matter the cuisine. I also own an event company I started 3 years ago, and recommend her often to clients who also rave about her food. For a while she got super busy exclusively working for some athletes, but thankfully she's back doing her own events instead of working as a personal chef for just one person! If you're lucky enough to get a booking with her take it. She's worth every penny. I can't say more great things about her.

Lena and her team were fabulous! I worked with Lena to put together a 12-person dinner for my…read morebirthday party recently. Not knowing anything about the NYC chef culture prior to working with Lena, I was a bit nervous about what the quality of the food and service would be like. However, Lena and her team quickly settled these nerves. Here's my breakdown of the experience: Pre-Event Date: Lena was extremely responsive throughout the entire process and was great to partner with in catering the menu to my likes / dislikes as well as taking into account any allergies amongst the group. Day of Event - Arrival / Setup: Lena and the two waiters she came with arrived on time and quickly settled in and got to work to help set the room / table up. I was somewhat surprised how little I had to do to get everything setup. Food: Every dish was excellent and all 12 people agreed! The presentation and taste was top notch and I felt like I was at a Michelin star restaurant. The dessert was heavenly and I enjoyed every last bite! Waiters: The waiters were extremely thoughtful and professional. When each guest arrived, the waiters greeted them and took their coat / bags to hang them, which was a nice touch. They also ensured our glasses (wine and water) were never empty. Before they left, they cleaned up the kitchen and washed all the pots, pans, and dishes that were used for the night. I would 100% recommend anyone to work with Lena. I plan to work with her again in the future!

How to describe the wonderfulness of Chef Sean and his team? We met through a neighbor while I was…read morethinking about a party for my wife's 50th birthday. Could we do it at home? I wondered. Chef Sean and I met on a rainy March afternoon over coffee and I was immediately comfortable with him. We talked about the party, 30 people or so, ideas or dietary needs and a menu began to form. Planning ahead--2 months for me--was important since I've never done anything like this. We agreed to move forward together and Chef Sean was attentive to every detail of the planning with us. Cut to: the day of the party. Chef Sean arrived with his team--Chef Reid making clam pizzas out back in oven, Sotaro serving food and mixing the tastiest and most creative drinks, Chef Sean in our kitchen moving with efficiency. Guests arrived at 7pm and they were fed (and watered) until almost midnight. Every course was delicious, with the next one better than the last. Fried eggplant sandwiches, Heritage chicken, Arrabiatta...each surpassing any expectation we could have conjured. And then they cleaned and left. Like magic! Amazing. Wonderful. All guests wowed. The greatest food evening of our lives. Treat yourself to an evening with Gradito.
