“Ken has catered many events for us at our home or other locations. We never have to worry about anything. Ken takes care of every detail and always surpasses our expectations. The food is always well prepared and presented, and his staff is gracious and pleasant. I am about to hire him for another event at our home in January, but wanted to tell everyone about Ken.Carole Moran“

“Why does Mary have so few reviews?? She's INCREDIBLE. She was our wedding venue's recommended caterer and she did not disappoint. EVERYONE complimented the food. She worked with my fiancé and I to create a complex customized wedding buffet menu - we needed a gluten free table and a separate dairy free table, we wanted our wedding to be a formal tea party and needed all the food to match that theme, etc. She was great about staying in contact and immediately replying whenever I had a question; she also brought a bride platter for me while I was getting ready (she was right - the bride doesn't have time to eat!) that had deviled eggs, which weren't even part of our menu but she remembered me saying I loved so she made them for me. If I ever have another event in Salem, I'm definitely contacting her.“

“Thanks to Diamond's Catering for the wonderful job they recently did providing the buffet for the reconciliation lunch after my father's funeral. They were the utmost professionals from start to finish. Everything was delicious !!!“

“I cannot say enough good things about Antique Table. The food is amazing, and service is fabulous. Great atmosphere both indoors and outdoors, and tons of food & beverage options. There are so many dining choices in Salem, and we return here time after time. Classic Italian with some interesting additions mixed in, like the Chicken Miguel. The eggplant rollatini is the best I’ve ever had. Large portions and reasonable pricing. Generous pours on cocktails. Even in October, when the city is incredibly busy, the food and service remain top notch.“

“Butter UR Biscuit was at our shredding event at the Avidia Bank in Marlboro. The food is amazing and the workers are awesome!!“

“My husband and I used Vincent Bianco and his catering team for our wedding at the Smith Barn this past July 2025. They were incredible! Vincent was quick to respond to questions, walked through our options, and helped select the best catering options for our budget and guests. The food was delicious and Vincent was able to provide options to meet the needs of our guests with allergies. Everything was perfect, including the taco bar at the end of the night! Our guests continue to tell us how delicious all the food was at our wedding. We highly recommend Vincent and his catering team for your wedding!“

Just wanted to say Thank you Chris and your staff for making my function great!! Will definitely come back!!“

“If you're flying, and plan on eating while doing so, they're cooking dinner. It's the only choice you got! At that point, is a review even necessary, prudent, or relevant? That's how things work when monopolies take over Society. Every meal I've ever had from them on a plane has been satisfactory, but then again, no choice, so you get what you get! Also, you've no reason to visit here. It's a warehouse. Not a tourist destination.“

“We just used Bruce for our son's Bar Mitzvah party. The food was OUTSTANDING! We received tons of compliments on the food the entire evening. Hors d'oeuvres were creative and delish. We came up with such a unique menu that went with our theme. We also rented linens and chairs from Bruce. One stop shopping. He's been in business for a long time and definitely knows what he is doing. He's a perfectionist and an expert. A real pleasure to work with too. I would use Bruce Silverlieb again without a doubt!“

“Their coffee is phenomenal! I love the Midnight Roast in particular. Honestly, it’s why I’m writing this review.“

“Just had Cerra’s market do the food for a graduation party. All I can say was Wow! Everything was delicious! So many people commented on how delicious everything was. From the second I called in the order I knew I was ordering from the right place. Friendly, helpful, right on time! Can’t wait for a leftover piece of eggplant parm!“

“I love this company!!!! They catered my engagement party and I could not recommend them more. Dario is amazing - responsive, accommodating, friendly, not to even mention how incredible the food is. The appetizers were the star of the show, but the desserts were fantastic too. They set up everything at the venue, and did cleanup as well. They were quick and efficient, and knew exactly what they were doing. Very professional, and every person on the staff was AWESOME. Not so secretly hoping they do weddings too🤭“

“Let me paint this picture for you. 30 degrees, 20 mph winds.. I rushed out of work because I almost forgot to get that California burrito.. I don't even like California style burritos, but something about that short rib, and those fries, hit different. Hungry Nomads were packed up for the day, sitting in the front seat, heating up after a long cold shift. I strolled in late, praying for the best. They saw the disappointment on my face and blessed me with a burrito thicker than my forearm. That's real deal above and beyond customer service.. how can I rate a place 10 stars?“

“What a fantastic group, food was amazing, service is superb, very easy to work with when hiring all the way yo cleanup!! Hire them!!“

“Mr. Petisco catered the welcome party for our wedding. Lais and her family answered all of our questions and gave us tons of options. They provided a great spread of food that came out delicious and were excellent finger foods for our guests. . Reasonably priced and delicious! (I'm still thinking about that cheesy bread)“

“We booked Melt for our son’s graduation party and they were phenomenal. Everyone raved about their sandwiches, fries and service. We even continued to receive positive feedback for several days after the party.“

“We had our wedding at Spinelli’s this year and we were absolutely blown away by their service, attention to detail, and flexibility. Everyone that we worked with, beginning with the day we booked Spinelli’s down to our day of coordinator were all amazing and HAPPY to help us with anything we needed. My husband and I ordered a very special bottle of wine to be served at our sweetheart table and even though it looks like there was a breakdown in communication, our day of coordinator had the bottle on our table in less than 20 minutes! The food and drinks were delicious, the cake was beautiful and delicious, and the Illusions room with access to the outside Gazebo was perfect for our family! All of our guests were so happy with the food and service they also received! Spinelli’s gained a lifetime customer with us and we already plan to celebrate many more milestones there!“

“Dinner was amazing customer service was excellent!entertainment was outstanding!!! Will definitely return“

“Today I picked up an order which was heavy to carry. Debbie, a very thoughtful women , asked me were I parked, I said, a cross the street without hesitation she took the order and carried it across Bennington street to my car. Never in a million years could I have carried it myself I would have to make two trips to my car, I am not young.
Debbie, thank you very much for your thoughtfulness.
Merry Christmas and Happy, Healthy New Year.
