38 Best Caterers near Matawan

“I surprised my wife for valentines and brought tickets to the valentines dinner and dance 💃 party. This was our first time here and let me tell you it was better than I expected it to be. It was decorated for Valentines from the ceiling to the tables. The service kept coming around to the tables with hors d’oeuvres and the open bar was top shelf liquor. The food was too die for. The coffee and desserts 🍮 and ice cream sundaes were crazy. And don’t let me forget the DJ playing some great music. We can’t wait to go back.“

“Got food from there for the first time yesterday, absolutely delicious!!“

“Food is amazing at this place let me tell you. I eat here regularly and recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a good spot. And the owner Youssef is a freaking character, so friendly and he bounces off the wall. Definitely passionate about the place.“

“Private party in traditional presentation of a Kamayan feast (max 35 persons) for my milestone birthday. You meet with Chef Maricel herself to plan the menu and set-up (seating, music, and service). She was very accommodating for one guest who is allergic to soy sauce — a staple ingredient in Asian cooking. She prepared a separate meal for him. She made all my favorite Filipino dishes including Lechon (the best I’ve eaten!), grilled chicken inasal, fried tilapia, chicken adobo, and beef Caldereta (my husband’s favorite). I also recommend her crispy shrimp balls as an appetizer and pancit molo soup. Chef Maricel came out to present the Lechon and explained its significance in Filipino celebrations. The succulent pork and crackling were then added to the other dishes laid out on banana leaves. Dessert included turon and leche flan. The mango birthday cake was beautiful and delicious. We chose their beverage package that included non-alcoholic sangria, soda, coffee and hot tea. BYOB: Guests added pinot Grigio or prosecco to their glasses of sangria. Maricel’s Kitchen is a restaurant on the weekends and a cooking studio during the week where she teaches classes live on YouTube. The studio’s computer equipment set-up provided an opp for my family to project a slide show of photos from my life that guests watched during dinner. Our daughter led 3 birthday games between dinner and dessert where Chef Maricel’s cookbook and gift cards were the prizes. She signed each cookbook. Such a memorable evening!“

“Always an awesome experience. The food is always so delicious. Service I great and the people are as amazing as the food.“

“We used Chef Marie for a private dinner to celebrate my parents' 50th wedding anniversary. She did a wonderful job. The planning process was seamless - she was very responsive and helpful with suggestions. We had a four-course meal and each one was fantastic. She uses local and organic ingredidents and is very adaptive to your dietary needs. She even created a special menu for the kids. Marie and her assistant were very personable and professional. They catered to our every need and were an absolute pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Chef Marie/Proper Palate for your next dining event.“

“Mike and Cara at Moonlight are absolute pros. I’ll be honest — my wife is a perfectionist, and she notices everything. Somehow, they made our baby shower look and feel effortless while still exceeding her (very high) expectations. From the moment we started planning, they guided us through things we never would’ve thought about and took all the stress out of our hands. The whole day flowed so smoothly, and the atmosphere they created made it feel like we’d been planning this for months. They didn’t just host an event — they gave us a memory we’ll never forget.“

“Complete one stop shopping for all your catering needs!“

“I cannot say enough nice things about Alan and ultimate catering. Alan and his staff and their food were amazing, but not only that he was truly just a wonderful human. I was sadly one of those brides that got scammed by AF. I wouldn’t have been known about what was going on if Alan hadn’t been worried about me and how I was doing. He contacted me within days of the scandal and not only told me something that absolutely devastated less than 5 weeks before my wedding, but he asked him how he could help. This man sent me a list of contacts that he had, he contacted his contacts to try to work out a deal for his brides. This man has integrity and such kindness and generosity. If he hadn’t stepped in I wouldn’t have been able to pull together all my venders to successful have my wedding. How on to the food, omg my guests were raving about the food. They loved my passed hors d’oeuvres, but they absolutely died over the roast whole pig that Alan carved himself. This man brought my husband and myself a sampling of every piece of food offering to make sure we ate. He helped me come up with my wedding plan and helped me set up my dream. You cannot go wrong with Alan and his team. Without him who knows if my wedding would’ve happened.“

“Absolutely amazing service. My husband and I happened to come across from Staten Island where we are visiting his Grandmother (we are from Hampton, VA). Let me tell you this spot did not disappoint. Nestled in beautiful area, we’re welcoming faces, great customer service and the most amazing tasting Boba Tea! We will definitely be back when we are in the area again! We highly recommend you checking out Boba Time Tea!!!“

“Amazing food and staff ❤️❤️“

“we had my sisters bridal shower there yesterday and I can't say enough good things about this place! from the moment we booked it, the staff was extremely welcoming and helpful! the food was fantastic and that they upgraded us at the last minute to the bigger room truly made it perfect! thank you so much ariana's for having a space that allowed us to give my sister the perfect day that she deserves!“

“I Didn’t get a chance to order because I was djing but lawwwwdddddddddd that Philly cheesesteak egg roll was slapping…. I’ll definitely come back to order that… CONGRATS AGAIN ON THE GRAND OPENING“

“Bayway catered for my baby shower this past Saturday, and I will be honest I was nervous. I never worked with them before, and didn’t know what to expect. However, I was able to get on the phone with Mike 2 days before my event, and he ensured me everything will be on time and that the food I ordered was the right amount. Well, he was right! Billy, the delivery person showed up early and helped with the set up, and the food arrived hot. Every person at the event gave several compliments regarding the flavors and the presentation. I highly recommend Bayway for any size event, and I’ll be using them again! Thanks again, Mike!“

“My husband and I were craving Indian so we decided to try this place. Firstly, picking up it was the nicest customer service. The man was so personal and friendly, it was like walking into a family restaurant. He gave me a tea, some yummy dessert and he didn’t even want to accept money for it.

Secondly, we devoured everything. It was all so delicious and it filled us all up. We got three things but the chicken tikka was amazing.

Overall, I would highly recommend ordering from here. You won’t be disappointed.“

“I had my niece’s 40th birthday party at The Columbus Club last night, and it was beyond my expectations! The room is BEAUTIFUL, and very spacious for 100 people. The food was so delicious! Everyone was raving about it. Joe and the rest of the staff were so friendly, helpful and attentive. The pricing is very reasonable. I highly recommend having your party with them! I will definitely be back!“

“We had a wonderful experience with Angelo and Creative Catering for our company garden party in July 2026.

What really stood out from the very beginning was the personal attention and initiative. I contacted several caterers and explained that, as someone who doesn’t regularly plan events, I had no idea what quantities would be appropriate for around 25 guests. Rather than simply sending me a standard menu or asking me to select items myself, Angelo was the only caterer who took the time to put together a complete buffet proposal tailored to our event, including beverages. That was ultimately the deciding factor in choosing Creative Catering.

Delivery, setup, and pickup the following day made everything incredibly convenient for us as hosts and took a lot of stress out of the event. When we realized at short notice that our own buffet tables would not provide enough space, Angelo and his team even provided an additional table for us.

Thank you, Angelo, for making the catering side of our party so easy and enjoyable. We can highly recommend Angelo and the Creative Catering team, and for our next event, they would absolutely be our first choice again!“

“Getting a quick bite to eat for Breakfast.The usual sandwich of toasted hard roll, 2 fried eggs, jalapeno peppers with salt - pepper - ketchup.Spotted this bottle of hot sauce on Stubby's Condiment Shelf and since I like Hot Sauce gave it a try.It added a nice taste to the sandwich.“

“I was at Saturday night party and it was awesome. food was delicious, DJ played music as requested. very friendly and fun atmosphere!Restaurant was packed, yet service was fast! Definitely recommend!“

“Excellent food for my backyard party!“

“I can’t say enough nice things about the service, the staff and the food. I had an event in Water Mill that required a very specific menu and not only did Framboise deliver on the vision….They knocked it out of the park. The entire team was fantastic to work with prior to the event and on site that day and evening. They were professional and courteous and made everyone feel like they were a VIP. I went back for seconds on every single dish! The food was incredible. This is the best caterer I have ever worked with in 25 years of events.“

“The food here is delicious.“

“I think this place is great. The homemade soup is delicious. My husband said that the beef and barley I had gotten him one time was the best he ever had. It does not have an extensive menu but in my opinion what you will receive will be of good quality. It is a family business and you can tell that people are repeat patrons.“

“Some of the best sandwiches I've ever eaten. And the staff are awesome.“

“Definitely the diamond in this strip mall; John and the crew make everything fresh and made to order! Beyond greatness in customer service, accuracy, and in a timely manner! But again give the men some time as the chicken is deliciously pressure cooked! Amazing crispy and tender, completely on point every time! A must have!Great work John, stay proud of your business!“

“Wow! Just wow!
Last night, we had our school’s end of the year celebration at 286 South. Joe and Vin treated us like family. We were given the back room, which was perfect for the amount of people we had. Bartenders and servers were great, very attentive. The food was over the top. It was so delicious. We had the penne vodka, chicken franchaise and eggplant rollitinI… people went up for seconds and thirds. So yummy!!!! We are definitely coming back next year!“

“Great team! Excellent presentation. Can't go wrong!“

“I went to the nursery in the afternoon accidentally left my wallet on a cart, I wanted to thank the lovely patron that saw it and brought it in to the store. Is comforting to know there are good souls out there. ❤️🙏✝️ Also, Thank you to the Dearborn employees..❤️“

“We just celebrated our daughter's first birthday and it went spectacularly! The room is incredibly spacious and the owner, Anthony, was easy-going and kind. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for an affordable, great looking venue space!“

“i would recommend everything on this list“
