24 Best Caterers near Ringwood

“My husband and I hired Billy and Carmelo’s Brick Oven Pizza for our party last weekend. The pizzas were fantastic, creative, and definitely not your same old pie. Prosciutto and fig, truffle and mushrooms. The list goes on and on. Our guests were raving and we highly recommend them. We will be using again soon! Thank you“

“We used Graze Craze Wyckoff for a women entrepreneurs networking event and had a great experience. Jane arrived early, set up a beautiful display, and took care of cleanup afterwards, which made everything so easy. The light bites, salads, and charcuterie were fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented - everyone loved the food. Highly recommend for a networking event, ladies’ night, or any special gathering. Thank you!“

“Had my daughter’s bridal shower here Saturday. It was amazing. My friends all said it was one of the best bridal shower they have been to. A large selection of food and fabulous ambience. I highly recommend! You won’t be disappointed.😋“

“Best bagels ive ever had: better than anything in nyc and better than anything else in jersey. Everyone in there hustles and works hard. I kept seeing the team asking for a guy named Byron and he was super on top of everything. That guy is an MVP. Whoever takes the orders on the phone is also a star: always gets the orders right- every detail (and thats hard to come by).

Now i will say, a large part of what i do for a living is making the customer service experience at restaurants better and more efficient. Most restaurant operators will not take advice unsolicited but i wanted to give mine anyway in hopes of maybe one day they will consider some changes:

A lot of times when i come here i see frustrated customers waiting on lines. Lot of old men cutting the lines. Nobody knows where to stand and sometimes multiple lines form. The people waiting to place an order are also in the same line as people waiting to pick up their order. So, i would do a number of things to improve their systems:
1. I would promote ordering ahead for pickup on their website. There are so many great companies they can use which can set up an awesome website for them : my favorite is Figure or Toast.
2. I would modernize everything by having the tickets from their website come in via printers and everything typed out. Would control where the tickets went and set up multiple printers.
3. Would ahve order screens so kitchen staff can see the orders, in the order they come in (with time stamps) and mark them off as they go.
4. I would have a screen so customers can see which orders are “in progress” and which are “finished”. That way orders that are ready, customers can go up to their counter and mention their name. This system also works well if you have delivery drivers in your face a lot.

5. I would have 2 lines set up, divided with standing signs “order here” line and a “pick up “ line.

6.I would also have a worker whose only job would be: manning the register, cleaning up, attending to the lines. I see a lot of the FOh going to the back to get things and add things and that element is not typical in an efficient restaurant system. There should be an expediter who passed things to FOH so they dont have to go to the back and get in people’s way.

I would do more but i know that even a few of these changes would enhance the customer ordering and pickup experience and if done right it could potentially make the workers lives easier once they get used to the new systems.

I know they probably wont do any of this because they are busy and people love them and will put up with the status quo. But i will say one observation: i noticed most customers are of a certain age. Younger generations like and expect efficient ordering processes and dont like to talk to people: they like kiosk ordering and online ordering a lot.

The restaurants i operate do about 90% of their orders on online platforms. Its becoming the norm and i know many customers would appreciate a simpler way to order ahead, and get to go on that shorter “pick up” line.

Just a thought.

But hey, at the end of the day even if Bagel Nosh become more inefficient i would still come back because they truly have the best Bagels and their team hustles, and always gets everything perfect. I applaud the owners for being able to maintain such a strong team and the work culture there is impeccable- nobody is slacking off.

Wishing Bagel Nosh and Team only the best. Best of Bergen every year for a reason!“

“I had Modern Roots cater my daughters bridal shower luncheon on Sunday April 2nd. The food was awesome! It was presented so beautifully! There Little Bite pass arounds were fabulous. Their food is definitely prepared with LOVE and what more can you ask for! They are one of the unique and finest caterers around. Donna was soooo easy to work with and so helpful! They are my new go to for any future events! They made the day extra special!“

“Julie catered a two day event for us, giving us a beautiful salad bar, super fresh chicken and salmon options for dinner - with the BEST green bean salad I ever had, and then an amazing brunch the next day. Everything sent was of the freshest quality and was so delicious! She provided plates and flatware, letting us really focus on our event and taking the clean up with her. Price was so reasonable - will be using Julie again!!!“

“Everything from the food, communication, delivery, etc was exceptional. Everyone at the party raved about the quality of the food and how fresh everything was. Frankie's far exceeded our expectations and I look forward to using them in the future!“

“We used Amarillo Grilling for our wedding BBQ, and we couldn’t have been happier with the experience. We had about 100 guests, and everyone raved about the food — people are still talking about how delicious everything was! Ken and his team went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. From setup to service, they were professional, friendly, and such a pleasure to work with. Hosting a big event can feel overwhelming, but Amarillo Grilling made it easy and enjoyable. They truly helped make our celebration special, and we’re so grateful. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for amazing food and great service!“

“This establishment is truly unique in its catering services, and I am excited to hear that they will soon be offering takeout options. The food is not only delicious but also healthy, and it is prepared by the highly experienced and friendly Chef Craig. He kindly gave me a tour of the kitchen, which was exceptionally clean and well-organized. It would be a missed opportunity not to visit this establishment.“

“This small shop makes the best (bacon) egg + cheese sandwiches around that area.The owners know what I want after I've not been there for months at a time, and have been like that since my first visit. They are always friendly and quick with my order.They have Coffee Roasters coffee, a favorite of mine, but they rarely make decaf, if that's what you're after.It is a tiny shop with limited seating, you'll probably be more comfortable in your car or back home, but there's always news on the tv to keep you amused, should you sit and eat.Park in the Rite-Aid lot or on the side street. They're 2 blocks from the train, and there's plenty of small places to shop or investigate nearby.“

“Great food! Great Service!“

“So delicious and plenty of food. Loved it!“

“They always that pot of fresh coffee ready when u get there and staff is super nice and clean 💜🙏💙🌻🥰💯“

“This place should not be slept on.

Since moving to Bergen County, Market basket is my highlight .

Incredible (packaged) fresh pasta, incredible butcher counter offerings (pork chops, burgers, steaks etc) , beautiful herbs, great dips, Balthazar Bread & wonderful bakery items ….speciality items like French butter - but if I forgot Milk for my son, grab and go items like this exist too.

Weeknight dinners became easier when I found my groove of what I buy here. The stuffed chickens you just pop in the oven are incredible !

When hosting - it’s my one stop shop.“

“Morano’s is always my go to catering spot! They never disappoint!! I catered an event for 50 people and the food was hot and fresh and delicious! The delivery was on time and the staff is so dedicated to quality and service! I received so many compliments and recommended Morano’s to all my guests.“

“Fantastic fresh food that is tasty AND delicious 🤤“

“My daughter was married here October 15, 2022. The night was perfect. It actually exceeded already high expectations. Guests were highly complimentary of the food, venue and staff. The staff was very well trained, professional and best of all seemed to really enjoy working there. The chef is very nice and accommodating to special diet needs. I would do it all over again the exact same way without question.“

“This place is AMAZING! Great staff??delicious sandwiches?AWESOME CATERING?My family has been ordering from here for years and have never been disappointed. Italian Hero, Roast Beef & Cheddar, Salami Fresh Mozz & Roasted Peppers are made to perfection.We’ve had them cater multiple events with subs, wings, and apps and we’re constantly having to tell everyone where we got the food.Would give more stars if I could. Looking forward to my next visit✨

Parking: Street parking out front. Public parking lot across the street.“

“My 16 yr old son insists that we go to Wyckoff Deli several times per week after school for their phenomenal fresh turkey BLT on toasted multigrain bread with mayo. If you like turkey carved off the bone and bacon cooked just right, this is the place! Try it. You will not be disappointed. And you can’t beat the friendly and accommodating staff!“

“The food is always delicious. Rosario also supports organizations through dining to donate/coupon days contributing a percentage of the proceeds supporting humanitarian causes. You cannot beat that!“

“Great place for breakfast! Hungry Man sandwich was delicious and fit for someone hungry. Omelette platter is big and tasty. Will come back next time in town!“

“I e cream is great, nice building and atmosphere, rude pretentious staff. I came with a 2 year old, she needed a diaper change, they told me the restrooms were closed to customers and only for staff. I got my little girl her ice cream and a guy who appeared to be a manager told us to get out because they dont allow indoor seating. it's a shame because the ice cream is great and it's a great location“

“Delicious avocado with chicken is Amazing 😉“

“The Best Food and Service 👍👍👍👍“
