“First visit today, although we live somewhat in the neighborhood and I am already kicking myself for not having got here sooner. Red tabbouleh spicing was very punchy and vivid. Allspice in the stuffed grape leaves make them worth coming back for, not something I think I've ever said about stuffed grape leaves before. Most unforgettable was the red lentil soup with its soft rich velvety texture over two or three layers of different delicious flavors. Great first impression, can't wait to go back, solid A leaning toward A+.“
“Love this place! The chicken pesto Panini is my absolute go-to—it's so flavorful and satisfying. The customer service here is top-notch too. The owner is super friendly, always greets me by name, and makes me feel right at home. It's those personal touches that keep me coming back for more!“
“We used Baker's Best to cater an event at our home with 26 people. They were recommended to me by a friend and they did not disappoint! We ordered a range of food - our favorite was the salmon, yet the vegetable spring rolls, spinach triangles, shrimp, cheese/fruit platter and cookie platter were all delicious. I was pleased that the delivery arrived perfectly on time and the instructions for reheating were clear. I will definitely use them again!“

“Powerhouse Catering is the first place I call, whether I need a simple "drop-off", or a full service catering need with staff. They are creative and the presentation is amazing. All of the staff, from the sales managers to waitstaff, chefs and bartenders are wonderful to work with and go above and beyond at each event.“
“We have used La Bonne Maison twice. The first was for our wedding in 2016 and our guests raved about the food. Even our DJ said it was the best wedding meal he had ever eaten. The second time was for my graduation party following my master's degree in 2023. Same thing! Even the presentation for a backyard picnic meal felt special. La Bonne Maison delivered real ceramic serving dishes and elevated the whole affair. And their food is just SO GOOD. Their menus are not ordinary but not froufrou either. They are intelligently designed with your input and perfectly executed. For any special occasion, La Bonne Maison will make sure your menu meets your expectations -- and be delicious!!“
“Joseph's Catering in Woburn, MA is the one to call for any event you are planning! Their muffins are delicious. Everyone loves their breakfast sandwiches. They arrive hot, wrapped and labeled. Fruit platters are always fresh. If you want an assortment of sandwiches, any pasta, stuffed shells, meatballs or a garden salad, you will not be disappointed. The presentation is superb! Resa and her staff are professional, friendly and very helpful.We have found a beautiful diamond to cater our events and Joseph's is the one you should have for yours! Mary & Jean“
“The food there was amazing and the person at the cashier who served us was WONDERFUL! He came back to check on us often, he was VERY friendly, and we had a really nice talk. Would definitely come again, huge thank you to him, and indubitably this restaurant should get more than 5 stars.“
“Love this shop so much! we have had multiple cakes made here for special occasions so we decided to put in a special request for my baby shower and they definitely came threw!! it wasn't only beautiful but also delicious and made with love, thank you so much!!“
“Ok so first point is the food was awesome. Friendly staff, and good location. The price is good, a little less than typical for bbq. We had 3 meals which consisted of brisket, ribs and half chicken with the sides of Mac n cheese (which to me could use a little smoke flavor or cheese with a little more flavor. Could just be a personal preference. ) baked beans and Brussel sprouts.Overall fantastic meal for good price.They need a bigger seating area but for a new BBQ place in New England they are on their way to becoming well known for great food. Will visit again soon. Great job CODE 1 !!!!!“
“We were so happy to have Maria's Catering cook all the great food for our Son and his new Wife's Wedding Reception Dinner! My Mother & Father had them cater many dinners and lots of our family members did also. They have catered at Son's of Italy for many years where we had the reception and they came highly recommended! I see why now. My son had his reception the weekend before Thanksgiving and even though Maria's Catering had back to back parties that weekend they still catered for us too! She also explained everything very well when I called with any questions! Everybody loved the food! My husband and I would recommend Maria's Catering to all for wedding receptions and any parties and wish them a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!“
“We loved working with Julian and his team for our summer 2023 wedding! We were excited to serve paella because the bride's late grandfather was known for making celebratory paellas for large events, and this felt like a good way to remember him on the big day. Julian honored that sentiment and then some!Julian was very helpful and friendly throughout the process. He helped us understand what was possible with our budget, and he helped us make selections when it came to our table settings. He was friendly and easy to work with throughout the whole process, and he had everything handled when our wedding venue coordinator left her job and someone less familiar with the venue took over.On the day of, Julian and his team were on it! The cocktail hour spread and food were both amazing, and Julian made up plates and had waters ready for the bride and groom right after the ceremony, so we had plenty to snack on while we were having our couple's portraits done. He and his team were cooking up a show, and even let the ring bearer mix some of the paella, which our family got a real kick out of! He also took candid photos throughout the day, which felt like an added bonus. Even now, six months out from the wedding, people are still commenting about how amazing the food was. Our family is trying to come up with other occasions big enough that we could hire Julian again! We wholeheartedly recommend Julian and his team to anyone looking for amazing food.“
“The best pizzagaina around! We make sure to pick one up for every Easter for the last several years. It’s one of our favorite parts of the weekend and the whole family expects it from La Cascia’s now. They sell by the half and whole but trust me you need the whole pie!!!“
“I order Basil Tree for my office and every bite we rave about how fresh everything is. The salad, pad thai and sandwiches are our go to. Customer support in ordering and delivery personal are top quality and very communicative at every step.Highly recommend Basil tree for any of your catering needs.“
“Popular ice cream spot - first visit it was later in the evening 9pm Small waiting line - employees appeared busy. Plenty of happy faces sitting enjoying their cold treats of ice cream I don't often order a Sundae, this was that rare occasion. I ordered a grape-nut ice cream Sundae with chocolate fudge topping and this did not disappointment They offer small, medium and large portions Below is a medium- a small would be enough Go pay them a visit. I am positive that you will come back again ....“
“My team contracted Forklift Catering for a high-profile Harvard event early this year. Forklift's professional sales and event management team were incredible partners in the development and execution of a spectacular event every step of the way. They were always available to address any question or concern and were so adaptable to every plan change (down to just days before the event). They even functioned as our florist and arranged breathtaking floral displays to enhance the ambience. 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.“
“Consistently awesome for generations. Wonderful management & staff. Friendly and fast paced vibes. Love the variety in the frozen section and all the food from local businesses. And of course THE best cold cut sandwiches, sliced to order. You need to see the skill and effort that goes in to making each Italian sub. It makes it taste that much better. Fresh bread choices are top notch. My fave is the seeded braided roll before they're sold out for the day!“
“If you are looking for a place that prepares fresh, delicious food it's Virginia's Fine Foods! They offer take out during this pandemic time. Arda and her family donated meals for our entire staff at the Armenian Nursing & Rehab Center! What a treat it was and so very much appreciated. The chicken was so tender with nice spices served over a vegetable rice accompanied by a super crisp fresh salad with delish balsamic dressing! Also so many choices of sparkling waters! It was all individually packaged, boxed and organized for easy no contact access for the staff. She also was wonderful at communicating with me on the menu and delivery. I can imagine with her level of professionalism it would be a breeze to work with her on any kind of catering event. All we can say is thank you Arda! Your kindness, generosity and delicious food is truly appreciated, especially by our hard-working staff. I cannot wait for the day that I can come to your restaurant to meet you and thank you in person. Oh and also try more of your food! Breakfasts, specialty sandwiches, appetizers, hot and cold entrees...!“
“Words cant even begin to how happy I have been to find this hidden gem. I have hosted many parties but have never been complimented so much on food as I have been my last 2 times. The food is amazing and the service even better. The treat you like family. Oh and did I mention the food was DELICIOUS. They go above and beyond to make sure everything is perfect for you. I am so happy they have a to go counter too because I will no longer be cooking!! The prices are great and food amazing, why dirty my kitchen!!“
“I reached out to Mai and her team SUPER LAST MINUTE to create an 'elevated tropical' themed space/backdrop for a virtual event in our office in the Seaport. Mai circled the wagons on her team quickly and they were committed to help make the event a success. Mai is SUPER professional, prompt, imaginative, and truly a delight to work with. The room came out great, they stayed within our budget and we were so happy with the result. I would use Mai and her team at BG Concepts again in a heartbeat!“
“Excellent food! Abundant and tasty! We ordered from Arsenal Catering Group for our kids' B'nai Mitzvah celebration. It was a large party, but everyone said that the food was very good. Communication was excellent throughout the planning process. Delivery was prompt and the driver was very helpful with the set up. Overall, we are very happy with our experience. Thank you!!“
“The empanadas were delicious! I eat a plant-based diet, and it’s not always easy to find plant-based items in restaurants (believe it or not). Each of the flavors I tried was delicious and multi-faceted. At first, I was hesitant to believe that two or three empanadas would fill me up, but I was completely satisfied at the end of my meal. Yumriffic! We will definitely go back to Del Sur Empanadas.“
“I tried the plain bagel, muffin, chocolate croissant, danish, mixed fruits, and yogurt fruit cup with granola.- Plain Bagel: Subpar. Too chewy.- Muffin: Fluffy, moist, and tasty. This was my favorite of the things I tried.- Chocolate Croissant: Good but nothing special. Quality is comparable to supermarket-bought croissants rather than a fresh croissant from a bakery.- Danish: Too sweet so I wasn’t a fan.- Mixed Fruits: They weren’t that sweet, but you can never go wrong with fruits to balance out the heavier foods.- Yogurt Fruit Cup and Granola: The portion size was good. The yogurt was very smooth. I would have preferred plain yogurt. The granola was very crunchy and good.They have a lot of different menus to choose from for catering.“
“The perfect ending to the perfect wedding. We had Frosty come towards the end of my son's wedding reception as a surprise to everyone. After a fun night of eating, drinking and dancing it was the perfect ending. What fun so many guests posted pictures having an ice cream. The attendant was fun and helpful and moved quickly. I highly recommend Frosty for any occasion, who doesn't love an ice cream!“
“Great local Italian shop with wide selection. I came a few days before a holiday and I was still able to get a couple trays of Eggplant and lasagna when no one else could accommodate. I am so glad they couldn't because the food was so great. The service was quick enough considering that it was right before holiday and a "small" shop. From the other customers I can tell this is a Gem and loved business that I can imagine goes multiple generations.“
“Adele and her team made delicious food and tea for our bridal tea party! Donna stayed to make sure everything was refilled and available during the party and was so helpful and kind. Vintage Tea made my hostess job easy! Would recommend again and again!“
“I cannot say enough good things about Wildfire Catering. They catered our wedding and the whole experience was absolutely seamless. Our venue did not have a kitchen so they prepared everything from the Amigos Locos food truck. We had a traditional happy hour with stationary and passed appetizers, and then our guests went out to the truck to select their dinner. They served our 100+ guests in no time. The food was delicious and people are still raving about it – my one friend commented that ours is the only wedding she’s attended where she left very full. Beyond the amazing food, it was an absolute pleasure to work with Bryan. He is very knowledgeable and has a ton of experience in the industry so he helped to craft the perfect menu for our event that gave everyone a choice of several options and accommodated all dietary restrictions. He also worked directly with the city to get the appropriate permits. Trust them with your next event and you’ll be in great hands!“
“Amazing service and a fair price for the amount of food they give you. The baklava was to die for if your looking for a sweet treat after a healthy hearty meal! Would recommend to any one looking to try out Mediterranean food or for someone who already loves Mediterranean food! I'll definitely be coming back!!“
“The process with Mariah from Food Trucks 2 Go was seamless from start to finish!! I had called many food trucks on my own with no luck and she was able to secure a food truck in no time. Mariah always responded promptly to my messages or questions and was so accommodating. The food truck was a hit for my son and niece's high school grad party and everyone loved the food and the service. I would highly recommend working with food trucks 2 go for your next event!!“
“Capers did the catering for our wedding on 10/8. Our previous caterer had to cancel on us and Capers stepped up and blew us away. We had duck for dinner and lamb for appetizers! We had vegan and gluten free guests and they loved their options as well, don't worry. Their tasting room was fun too!“
“I absolutely love this shop. They've always been welcoming and friendly towards my lack of cheese knowledge. The selection from wines, cheese, and snacks is always on point. The people are friendly, engaging if needed, and so wonderful. I really love this shop. If you haven't been yet and have wondered if its worth stopping by, this is your sign.“
“What a wonderful idea to make lunch boxes ? for truckers while we're getting our trucks washed at Boston truck wash...it was a wonderful thing to be given a boxed lunch...I'd love to thank you all for appreciating what truckers do t...thanks for sharing and for what you do...God bless you“
“Came in for a quick dessert since I saw they had churros on the menu! I thought it was a good deal ($4.5 for two). It came with a sauce and they were filled with a sweet cream. Will definitely come back to try their other food. Seemed like a nice family-run local business!“
“Hostess catered my vegetarian partner's 50th birthday this weekend, and they were AMAZING. Great to work with from start to finish. Tina was almost more like an event planner for me than simply catering - we didn't have to worry about furniture rental, they were able to organize the alcohol and provide a bartender - everything we needed.There were so many DELICIOUS vegetarian options, which was very important to us. Guests were surprised and delighted by the tiny grilled cheese sandwiches in tomato soup shots. I've been accused of setting the bar too high for everyone else's parties by hiring Hostess.The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful and just a joy to have as a part of our event. We would hire Hostess again in a heartbeat.“
“I had called 6 bakeries including my go to bakery, I needed a chocolate cake with lemon frosting lol, I know what a combo! That’s what the birthday boy wanted! No one would make it, others offered a lemon filling, but no icing!! I called Arthur’s it have been a decade correct more since I had been there, the baker was sweet, agreed to make this cake! And WOW JUST WOW!! It was incredibly fabulous, the cake was outstanding but the icing was not screaming lemon, it had the perfect level of lemony flavor ! I cannot thank them enough! I highly recommend!!!“
“Everyone's got a go-to lunch spot and they're all the best on earth, I know. But here's another, all the same. Must have had a hundred lunches there over the years, not one of them ever subpar in any way. It's a high-quality delicatessen with all kinds of options, you're in good hands, you're gonna love it.“
