At this…read morepoint, my guests know the team and look forward to her delicious "crab cakes" and "beef Wellington bites". Judy works with me to create a food menu that matches the theme of the party and helps make the uniqueness of each party come to life. From a Game of Thrones to a Texas Shindig to a Fire & Ice party, there's nothing she won't try. I always have the bartender and a couple of servers to help. They set up, clear, and clean up so I can fully enjoy my party. Don't hesitate for large or small parties, The Savory Palate can customize a full menu to your wishes. Thanks to Judy, she and her team have become an integral part of my entertainment crew!

Luckily I had contacted Judy at Savory Palete, and in hindsight it was the best decision I could have possibly made. The stress of hosting was taken off my shoulders. I was able to mingle and have fun with my family and friends while the food was being taken care of. I received endless complements on the menu choices and the taste of food. Judy was easy to work with and went above and beyond for my guests. I would highly recommend her and her staff for any event. -Amanda Dauphinais

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.

No glasses or water pitchers on the tables. Guests waiting over 2 hours to get a plate of the crappy food starting getting angry. Salad was part of the menu and never served.

They ruined this wedding reception for a wonderful sweet couple. STAY AWAY!

Where do I START with this place. Ok, so let me give you some background info. I was invited to a…read morefamily pre-Christmas Party on Sat 12/9 in Ellington CT. Being from Boston, I like to think I'm a foodie. Never heard of this place but had an open mind. So let get into it..... The apps where laughable. They brought 2 styles of mushrooms, chicken n pineapple on a stick and let's not forget the huge wheel of brie cheese with more mushrooms. They were ALL served as cold apps. I emphasize that because when the order was placed it was requested that the food was be warm and on warming plates. Let's not even mention the presentation. Also had requested wait staff and 1 woman was there, but all she did was stand around. After the app round it was time for the main event. Stuffed chicken, tenderloin, baked ziti, roasted potatoes and their 'claim to fame' home made dinner rolls. One would think, they would redeem themselves, but that sadly did NOT happen. Again, ALL the food was cold, presented on aluminum throw away tins. Need I say more. The chicken was cooked to bullet proof protection, the tenderloin (if that's what it was) was as delicious as chewing shoe leather and the potatoes where less to be desired. But what shocked me the most was the "baked ziti". Yes I used quotes here because this was singlehandedly the WORST pasta dish I have ever seen. It was burnt so bad all the sauce had disappeared. I mean seriously, HOW can you mess up ziti. And trust me folks, they did. And lets not forget the dinner rolls, although, I would like too. All for a $1000.00. We were robbed!! I could have went to McDonalds and had a better meal off the $1 menu. There's more I can write here, but I'm so disappointed in this establishment that they are not even worth it. In order to post this, I had to give it a 1 star. But trust me they don't even deserve it. In conclusion, let me say that I'm not sure who are writing your reviews but they would probably consider canned dog food as delicacy. A word of advice, this is not a caterer I would recommend for any function. They deserve no rating and should consider another line of work.

The night of the party, Leah, TJ and Tim arrived on time and were so prepared, pleasant, fun and professional. They made the party so special for me, my partner and all of our guests. Every time I tried to do something myself, one of them would say "I'll do it, you enjoy your party." Wow. The price was very reasonable and the food was so delicious. Everyone raved about it! And the birthday cake was out of this world! Tallulah's makes everything simple and fun for their clients. I would recommend them to anyone planning a party or event. I would definitely use them for other big parties...and I may have to...now my partner tells me she's spoiled! Thanks, Carrie, John, Leah, TJ and Tim!
