“The best place I’ve been! Absolutely best food ! The sandwiches are amazing, the bread is perfect (made here) everything is wonderful, warm and nice people, welcoming people!I wish there was more stars to give!!!מקום מספר אחת באמריקה ! ללא ספק !!“
“TipsyScoop was so much fun! I attended the SundaeMaking class where we made two sundaes: The Tequila Sunrise and the Whiskey Dreams. They provide all of the materials and you get to leave with a tipsy scoop glass! I honestly enjoyed sampling every flavor in the store, just as much as creating the sundaes. Tipsy scoop is known for having the highest alcohol content in their ice cream and this was not a lie. I definitely felt a little buzz when I left but overall it was such a fun experience. I did it as a solo date, but would highly recommend this as something to do with friends or as a couple. Make sure you try every flavor even if it sounds like it's something that you wouldn't like. My favorite flavors were the Coquito Dulce De Leche, Oreo Old Fashioned, Vanilla Bean Bourbon and the Gingerbread Martini. I'm planning to head back for another class in March. 10/10 recommend!“
“Just A Nibble made our daughter's bridal shower PERFECT! From the minute Nicholas walked through the door on the day of the event, he put me entirely at ease -- I knew that everything would be great, and it was. Just A Nibble's waiters and bartender had the perfect touch, seeming to float through the crowd, unperturbed by tight spaces. They made everything easy and fun. And the food was delicious (and abundant!). I can't recommend Just A Nibble highly enough.“
“We had Basset cater our Thanksgiving dinner this year and the whole process was outstanding. From the easy ordering process and timely delivery to the exceptional quality of the food. We will definitely be calling on them again for our catering needs.“

“Their Gluten Free Bagels are amazing. I ordered online which was a mistake - it said it would take 45 minutes to be ready but when I walked over there 5 minutes later it was ready (phew!) and I think I was charge a fee. So ORDER but not online!Love love love the bagels.“
“Dipped in here once as a recommendation from a co-worker. I love their fresh manicotti and red sauce. They also have a nice variety of ready made dishes for those nights you need help with dinner. Their garlic dressing arugula salad is yummy, they have a fantastic tiramisu. They also offer some cheeses and sauces.i highly recommend“

It's unbelievable!“
“The Team at Antun’s made sure that my day was perfect! I’m the 70th Birthday Queen who would’ve forgotten her head if it wasn’t attached. The Masquerade Ball was outstanding. Antun’s made sure that we had everything we wanted, needed & so much more! Thank you all for making it so special! Love this place, great and friendly staff, Kemi made my day special, you will never be forgotten.“
“Had the Linguine Nere con Gamberi, Calamari e Pomodoro i.e., squid ink linguine with shrimp, squid and tomato, and the Insalata di Finocchi Mele Rosse Pinoli Ricotta Salata, i.e., Fennel salad with red apple, pine nuts & ricotta cheese.Both were pleasant. Relative to the salad, the pasta was more delicious. The sauce was delightful -- I wished I had had the bread with the sauce!! I had taken the bread out first and set them aside and forgot about them until I finished the pasta.The bread was a generous portion, and was well baked and I could enjoy it on its own.“
“Wow this was incredible, there service was amazing. After getting a free sample of the coffee cheese cake a day before we knew we had to come back and try the food and it didn’t disappoint. Make sure to try a slice of the best cheesecake when your in town you won’t be “
“We contacted Dish on short notice to help us with a reception we were hosting and they provided exceptional service and food. The Event Director and Producer provided great guidance in our food selections, handled all of the details seamlessly, and were even able to secure a permit on our behalf. All of the reception attendees commented on how great the food was. Highly recommended for corporate events.“
“This shop is spectacular! The flavors are so sophisticated and unique. I bought a box for my husband for Valentine’s Day. He was so delighted and we’ve enjoyed a few pieces every day. I love that it’s on the 9th floor. Does it get more NYC than that? This place was such a lovely surprise. This is my new favorite spot in Chelsea. Love, love love!“
“We recently got married at Deity in November 2023, and we couldn't be happier with the entire day – it was perfect! From start, when we first visited the venue in December 2022, to finish, our experience was nothing short of exceptional, and we wanted to share our thoughts and gratitude.The venue itself is simply breathtaking. The moment we stepped into Deity, you could tell it holds so much unique charm and elegance. The space comes already beautifully designed, which was helpful as we did not need tons of floral arrangements/extra decorations. We were thrilled to receive countless compliments from our guests about the ambiance, and the different floors really gave the whole night a special type of vibe. The stairs were not a problem for our guests.The food at Deity was outstanding. From the initial food tasting to the reception, every dish was delicious and beautifully presented. We received numerous compliments from our friends and family about the quality and variety of the menu.A special shout out is for the bridal suite – the top floor area that we reserved for the entire day. We cannot understate how great this space was – we spent literally all day there, starting at 10am, for getting ready, photos, etc. It is so perfect and everything you need!We also want to give a special shoutout to the DJ BenHaMeen who absolutely crushed the music throughout the whole evening. The energy and enthusiasm translated onto the dance floor and our guests had an incredible time dancing the night away, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience.Lastly, we want to express our appreciation to Anna, the onsite coordinator at Deity. Anna's professionalism, attention to detail, and excellent communication made the entire wedding planning process so much more manageable. She was always available to answer our questions and provide guidance. Thank you, Anna!Truly – our wedding at Deity was an absolute dream come true. It had everything we were looking for – in NYC, inclusive and with character. We highly recommend Deity to any couple looking for a wedding venue that exceeds expectations in every way.“
“This is one of best restaurants for all types fresh organic meats cooked fresh to order and some of the best vegan options I’ve ever had. So many flavors and saucier and the patience this man had while I ordered was phenomenal eat here or miss out!Vegetarian options: If you don’t want to skip a beet eat here.“
“Our company held a 2 day conference and we ordered catering for breakfast for 1 day and lunch for 2 days. Everything was great! The food was very tasty and flavorful. There was a lot of food that served everyone and a variety of options. Delivery was on time and communication was very professional. I would definitely recommend Gotham Catering for your catering needs. This will be the go to catering for future events.“

“Jeffrey and his team were exceptional. They arrived right on time and hit the ground running. The food was delicious; dishes were well executed. They were courteous and took great care of our guests. They thought of all the little details and the kitchen was left spotless. We will definitely use them again.“
“Meat, chicken selection is in abundance and fresh. A beautiful selection of freshly made salads cold cuts and various cheeses is sliced to order. Prices are a little high but worth every penny. They take phone orders for delivery in a timely fashion. Avenue U location is pristine clean, cashiers and other workers are very nice and helpful. Freshly made Italian breads and rolls every few hours. They offer catered dishes for large gatherings, corporate & private parties.“
“Spacious with a lot of seating availableThe food is ordered cafeteria style where you pick up a tray and tell them what you want. Extra plates,sauces utensils, and wet naps are easily accessible. They have a jug a water you can freely take from as well.The food was amazing. We order the BBQ XL package,which costed $163 after taxes which comes with 1lb of pulled pork 1lb of brisket and 1 whole rack of ribs 4 pieces of cornbread and 4 small sides (we chose mac and cheese and baked beans) the meal comes with potato bread ,pickled red onions and pickles to make some bbq sandwiches out of itThe meal was so filling split 4 ways and definitely worth another visit to try thier other menu items“
“Thank you so much to the chefs and staff of Food Trends for a really delicious luncheon for the staff and faculty at our professional school yesterday, a party of 80+. We did a "themed menu" and the chicken, fish, and vegetables were all delicious. So often the vegetable dishes and sides are afterthoughts but the beans and potatoes were scrumptious and perfectly cooked. I appreciated that they brought cards that identified the food items and indicated if the food was vegan, gluten free, etc. (most caterers haven't done that in my experience). The staff who dropped off the food were prompt and friendly. And Kelly, rep from the catering team who assisted me with the order, was helpful and responsive. All around I had an exceptional experience with Food Trends.“
“The service at this restaurant is amazing! Nadia and her staff went above and beyond to ensure a truly memorable experience. From the appetizers to the numerous main courses, the food was fresh, uniquly presented, and most importantly, DELICIOUS. Nadia went the extra mile to ensure that all our guests left in jubilation and in awe. Everything was carefully thought off, and it all played out without any hiccup. Thank you very much, Nadia. You are our"to go" place now!“
“According to my friend who lives here, Greek is the way to go when you're in astoria. So we ordered some gyros and other delicious bites from Frankys and I was not disappointed. I got the beef suvlaki plate and omg the meat was so flavorful and freshly grilled you could still taste the smoke from the fire. The white sauce was great and veggies were fresh. I'd definitely make this spot a regular stop if I lived here“
“Gottscheer Hall is a fixture of Ridgewood and has been for decades. It does an excellent job at bridging the gap between the old neighborhood and the infusion of the new crowd in a way in which everyone feels welcome. The food is excellent and reasonably priced and their selection of German beer pretty much guarantees something for everyone. The bartenders are also the best in the area, friendly, personable and great to chat with while sipping on a cold one. I've made many memories and friends in that place from all walks of life. I recommend it to everyone. Easy 5 stars. Check it out!“
“Exceptional experience working with Susanne and Joe! From the initial inquiry email to all the communications, every aspect of it was flawless. Susanne's professionalism and attention to details was exactly what we needed. The food was *chef's kiss* We received countless compliments from our wedding guests! Wedding planning was undoubtly high stress but we're so thirilled to say that our experience with LCI alleviated much of that pressure. We highly recomend them to anyone looking for top-tier catering services.“
“What’s the Kitch? Catered my husband’s 75th birthday party for 24 people in our apartment in Manhattan. From my initial contact right through til the end of the party, I knew this was the caterer for us. Jeffrey and his assistant were extremely professional. I loved his “if you want it, we can make it happen” approach. We had a wonderful selection of light bites that were all outstanding. They were prepared and served (and cleaned up!) right at home, making it a very intimate and fun evening. We were so impressed that we have already booked him for our holiday party in December. Five stars all the way!“

From start to finish, it was evident that their day was going to be nothing short of spectacular.Terrace on the Park provided a stunning backdrop for Karen and Brandon's celebration of love. The panoramic views of the city skyline and the lush greenery of the surrounding park created an enchanting setting that perfectly complemented the couple's joyous occasion.As a second shooter, I had the opportunity to witness the magic of Karen and Brandon's love story unfold from a unique perspective. From the tender moments during their ceremony to the exuberant laughter shared during their reception, every moment was filled with genuine emotion and pure happiness.Working alongside the primary photographer, I was able to capture a diverse range of shots that truly encapsulated the essence of Karen and Brandon's special day.

“I've used Chris now for three events and have nothing but remarkable things to say about the guy. He's easily the single most professional, efficient and all around best caterer/chef I've ever com across. From planning an intimate 20 person get together to a 4 hour, 150 person rooftop carnival, Chris can take a 30 second conversation and turn it into something beyond your wildest dreams. The man is an absolute legend and the only caterer in NYC you need to consider using. He's sharp as a tack and has a staff unlike any other ready and will to help in any and every way necessary.“
“Walked in randomly on a Friday and got the toro special. It was a decent price for toro and it was well presented + quickly served. It wasn't too flavorful since the rice wasn't that seasoned. I relied heavily on the soy sauce and wasabi instead and it was a decent experience. It was a lot smaller than it looks though. I don't generally eat much as I'm a small person but I was easily able to finish the roll + handroll and still wanted more food. Overall I would go back and try other things there. Also saw another reviewer mention that they had soup with the lunch special but I didn't get any soup and it doesn't seem to mention soup being included on the lunch special menu. Just FYI“
“Our favorite place for dinner!!! Ate there three times in four days! The plates and bowls were incredible. Shrimp. Chicken. Avocado. Coconut rice. And the sweet plantains!!! Nicest hostess ever — Catalina is a ray of sunshine! Makes us sad to return to Indiana.“
“We used Thomas Oliver's Catering for a private event and everyone enjoyed the food. Gary was very easy to work with and flexible with any changes for dietary preferences. He was communicative throughout the entire process and his staff were pleasant and professional. We enjoyed working with them and would recommend it to anyone! Portions sizes were great - great value for money. Thank you!“
“Our wedding at the El Caribe on October 14,2023 was amazing. There are no words to describe how amazing the staff at the El Caribe was. The process of planning was smooth and easy with Phil. We are still talking about how the day was from the food to the service. Our family and friends are still raving about the food and how gorgeous the day was. This day was everything we could ever imagine and hope for.“
“Angelica is very sweet and helpful I didn’t know anything about Indian food she helped me order my meal. Goat Curry and Butter Chicken was sooo good! Highly recommend this very clean and delicious restaurant!! I will definitely be back soon!“
“This is the only place in the entire city that I would recommend people go to if they want an authentic New York pizza experience. The slices are massive (take-up-an-entire-plate HUGE), the sauce is zippy and flavourful, and the pepperoni is to die for. I would personally recommend a slice of the pepperoni and bacon, or the Sicilian deep dish. The workers are all very nice and service was quick and efficient. They also have a nice selection of cold drinks to get with your pizza. The joint was right across the street from our hotel so it was very convenient for us to grab a couple slices whenever we wanted. The best bonus is that the place is open late, which meant that we were able to get pizza at about 12:30 at night after catching Billy Joel at MSG. Overall, this is a fantastic pizza place and I would highly recommend it.“
“This place is very nice but very small. There is one bathroom for everyone and the lights there are very dim. It looks larger on the pictures than reality. We enjoyed our avocado rolls and dumplings on the patio. It is a very limited menu for food and drinks. The positive is that it is very cute and they have a train caboose that you can also dine in on the street.“
“Rarely do I feel compelled to leave a review, but I came into this store recently and received outstanding service. Melinda was so kind and cheerful - it really made my day. It’s rare to have such an encounter and she was truly a gem that made me want to become a regular. Not to mention the smoothie was delicious and the store extremely clean.“
“We recently had our wedding catered by Pheasant and they are truly the absolute best. Lola and Cat were wonderful during the entire planning process - so communicative, easy to talk to, and thoughtful with all their ideas. They helped us with planning our menu, handled all our rentals for furniture, linens, and serve wear, and worked with our planner to create a timeline for cocktails and dinner that flowed perfectly. We were blown away on wedding day - our tables turned out so beautiful and everything that was served was absolutely delicious. We even had many guests tell us it was the best wedding food they've had! We loved that everything was served family style and featured gorgeous, in-season produce. We are so thrilled with our experience with Pheasant and cannot recommend them enough!“

“I recently worked with Nathan at Seuda to arrange kosher catering for a friend that was sitting Shiva, even though I was out of state. Nathan's professionalism, empathy, and careful planning were truly outstanding.He coordinated everything, from meal planning to delivery, and made a difficult time much easier for everyone involved. Although I didn't personally taste the food, the feedback from the family was overwhelmingly positive.Seuda's dedication to customer care is unmatched. I highly recommend them for anyone in need of kosher catering. A big thank you to Nathan and the team for their exceptional service!“

“This venue is not a restaurant or even a take-out place: currently, it functions only in pop-up situations, such as at Vegan Night in Central Park (where I saw them). They serve filling and yummy vegan soul food; not necessarily low cal, but more than satisfying.“
“Shahi Catering on Braddock really pulls through. The chicken tiki massala was very succulent and flavorful alongside the freshly made jasmine rice. Best of all was the delicious garlic nann... perfect texture, nice thick garlic without being too much. The food came out to a beyond reasonable price. 5/4 ?! I definitely recommend dining at this hidden jewel of a spot. ???“
“From the first moment I reached out to Chef David I felt at ease. To start he was very responsive, very accommodating, we set a date and time, we selected our menu and we paid deposit.Day of my wife’s birthday (who just gave birth 3 weeks ago) he showed up on time, walked into the kitchen as if he has been in our home 18 times, found everything he needed to find and got to work asap. We were ready on time and so was he. Everything he cooked in our kitchen was delicious, we enjoyed every dish!Chef David was friendly, approachable accommodating. He brought his own dishes to serve us with which was great. He washed everything he used, he cleaned the kitchen stove and the kitchen counters. Absolutely spotless event and very enjoyable not having to go out and be spoiled like dining in a Michelin star restaurant in our own home. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! Thank you“
“5+++/5! Ordered to the office for catering and the breakfast tacos were a huge hit. Allergy friendly options for everyone. They also sell them and other items at Joe Coffee - another fav is the “not your grandfather’s” egg salad sandwich. Highly recommend. Plus Dan is great / so easy to work with!“
“Last minute change in plans for Christmas Eve dinner, Thanks in part to the flu and severe neighborhood flooding. Barely 2 days before Christmas Eve I frantically called every restaurant/caterer that I knew. Adrian and Rocky's was referred to me and was literally my very last phone call. They were wonderful and accommodating and even though catering orders for Christmas Eve were already closed as I expected, they graciously took my order. The fish was super fresh, and so delicious. Everybody enjoyed the food tremendously. Believe me they know what they're doing. The portions were generous and nothing was greasy or overcooked, It was simply perfect. We ordered fried calamari, mussels in white wine sauce, fried fish. I am definitely going to order from them again I would love to try what else they have to offer. Thank you for saving Christmas Eve for my family! Highly recommend.“
“I worked with RAPT for a book launch event for a high net worth individual and it was excellent. Not only was the set up perfectly done, everything was high quality and all the guests raved about the food. It was a non-alcoholic event and they put together the most amazing mocktails. Folks were so impressed we received several inquiries on who catered. They were communicative, incredible service day of and throughout and pricing aligned with the request. Highly recommend!“
“Title: Disco Delight: A Brunch to Remember at Roma ViewReview:From the moment we stepped into Roma View Catering in Howard Beach, my wife and I knew we were in for a treat. The venue hosted a classic view brunch that took us on a nostalgic journey back to the disco era, with the renowned DJ Tommy Nappy of 103.5 KTU spinning iconic tracks from the 70s and 80s. The energy was infectious, and we couldn't help but hit the dance floor and relive some golden memories.The food was nothing short of spectacular. The standard brunch buffet offered a delightful spread, including perfectly scrambled eggs, fresh bagels, a variety of salads, fluffy pancakes, and so much more. Each table was thoughtfully served with coffee and soda, ensuring we were well-hydrated for our dance sessions.Roma View Catering truly outdid themselves, not just with the music and ambiance, but also with the quality and abundance of the food. The service was impeccable, and the entire experience felt like a well-orchestrated celebration of good times and great tunes.In summary, our brunch at Roma View was a five-star experience that combined the best of both worlds - fantastic disco music and delicious food. It's a must-visit for anyone looking to enjoy a unique and memorable dining experience in Howard Beach.“
