Smokin J's BBQ catered our engagement party this past weekend and WOW, where do I begin?!…read more Everything was complete perfection from start to finish. From the food to the service to the preparation, we were impressed every step of the way. We seriously could not recommend Smokin J's enough!! To start, the food was absolutely incredible. All of our guests could not stop raving about it! For appetizers, we had pulled pork sliders and jalapeño poppers (which were a personal favorite). They were not only delicious, but the perfect size to grab and eat as they were passed around. They were a perfect introduction of what was to come. For the main course, we had pulled pork, smoked chicken, ribs, potato salad, baked beans, and Mac and cheese. Every single dish I listed was cooked perfectly. I honestly don't think I've had bbq that good before (I will be thinking about it for a long time to come!). Out of our friends and family, we have some pretty tough food critics and I can say with confidence that it was a hit with everyone. Not only did everything taste amazing, but it was filling as well. There definitely wasn't anyone that left with an empty stomach. It's been a few days since the party but people have been talking nonstop about the food. Next, I'll talk about the service. Joe worked with us to develop the menu and timeline, answered any and all questions we had (day of and prior to the party), and gave us a full rundown of what to expect in terms of setup and execution. Everything was laid out clearly ahead of time, so we were not worried about a thing going into the party; Joe really had everything planned to a tee. Day of, Joe came with two additional team members, Jerry and Elisa, to help cook and serve everything. They were equally as fantastic. As soon as the appetizers were ready, they started their rounds making sure everyone had a chance to have a bite as they arrived and mingled. There was one point where Joe noticed I hadn't eaten (I was busy running around like a nut saying hi to everyone), and called me over for a question. The "question" was really just an excuse to get me away, so I had a moment to breathe and have a bite to eat. I was moving a mile a minute, so this small gesture really meant a lot! Joe and his team really go above and beyond what you would expect from any caterer. They are not only extremely talented at what they do, but they are kind, personable, and wonderful people. I would gladly recommend Smokin J's to anyone and everyone, and would love to use them again in the future!

We were so happy with Smoking J's BBQ for our wedding. From the very beginning of the process,…read moreJerome was professional and responsive. He invited us out to another event to sample the food. We knew at first taste that we were in love! From then on, Jerome really listened to the vibe we wanted for our wedding and was really flexible with set-up. When the wedding day came around, Jerome and his team were awesome. Jimmy, Donna and Mary Anne helped with set up and transitioning as well as serving the food. The food was delicious! People were going up for seconds and thirds and we even had leftovers, which the team packed up for us. We were so happy with everything from start to finish. We definitely recommend them for any event.

We were lucky enough to randomly find Chef Kevin and his team just recently when seeking a private…read morechef for a 1-week vacation for ~10 people at an Airbnb in a relatively remote location in upstate NY. From ideation, to custom menu design, to contract reviews, paperwork including proof of insurance, and payment, Kevin was incredibly professional, flexible, responsive, and ultimately was the determining factor in ensuring our family (with young kids) would actually be able to enjoy the vacation without worrying about cooking, ordering in, or carpooling far distances on windy, dark roads. Kevin and team were also dog and kid friendly. Beyond the professionalism, the food and service were absolutely outstanding. It was hard to believe, but each meal was better than the last, as were the quality of the ingredients used. We would recommend Chef Kevin to anyone seeking relative affordability and a great value yet making zero sacrifices around taste, quality, and service. We are happy to write this review and support Kevin. We expect when we reach out for our next family event that Kevin will have a team of 100+. There is no better - Kevin and team won't disappoint.

People piled their plates and we still had leftovers to enjoy the next day. Katie is a true professional and we will certainly use her again for our next event.

I definitely recommend Emily's for your next event.

They were helpful, responsive, and everything was clear and upfront. There were no surprise charges, or "gotchas". In fact they did several things beyond the scope of the contract without additional charges. More importantly, on the wedding day everything went perfectly. They gave us great advice on the set up of the tables, chairs, bar etc. They listened carefully to everything that was asked of them, made a couple of outstanding suggestions and dealt with the problems caused by strong gusts of wind at an outdoor venue with calm assurance. All of the food was incredible. The hor's d'ourves were fantastic, especially the brie and artichoke tarts, mini lobster rolls and tuna tacos. The mac and cheese in mini ramekins were also a huge hit. The dinners were equally delicious. I had the half chicken, which was served with a delicious polenta. It was absolutely amazing. Perfectly cooked, moist with a crispy skin. Other sides were served family style and were all fantastic. The dessert was also superb. Each guest received a trio of mini desserts, each of which was delightful. We had several guests with food restrictions (vegetarian, gluten free, dairy free). The servers made sure the restrictions were observed, and they made it a point to bring appropriate appetizers to those guests, which was a very nice touch. All of the guests raved about the food. The service was also first class. There were so many servers handling the passed hor's d'ourves that every guest had multiple chances to try each of the offerings. Service of the dinner was equally impressive. The venue is outdoors, and it is a bit of a hike from the kitchen tent to the dining area. Despite that, the guests were served quickly, and the food came to the table still hot. Finally, their prices are quite reasonable, especially given the outstanding quality of the food and service. A very good value.

Brian's catering yesterday at the annual Pegasus Boots & Bling gala to benefit the extraordinary…read morework done by Pegasus Therapeutic Riding Center served to glorify the event even more than it already was. Cocktail hour was wonderful and hors d'oeuvres were delectable; I don't do mammals and had to steer clear of prosciutto & melon and totally avoid "steak chick" but the stuffed mushrooms and crab cakes were incredible. Dinner was even better with all options accommodated on the twin buffet tables: plenty of mammal-free dishes! Wild and long grain rice, poached salmon, chicken Française, butternut squash and penne al dente with broccoli. The broccoli was so tender and perfectly steamed, not at all mushy or faded and the chicken was so tender it would cut with the side of a plastic fork. It meant a lot that Brian was there to personally supervise and unlike some catering managers who are rude to patrons and treat the servers like servants (looking at YOU, Mario Cermele) Brian was courteous, polite, congenial and truly accommodating. I think next time I host a party at the house, instead of busting ass to prepare all the food myself I will call Brian..... but only if Steak Chick is part of the staff! LOVE HER!
