50 Best Caterers near East York

“Just went to a birthday party this weekend and had the most delicious food. The meat was perfectly seasoned; the rice was fluffy and savoury. I was quite impressed that this catered food was so fresh and flavourful. Definitely will give Catering by Nikos a call for our next big event“

“Coming back to Oakpark Deli in East York after 13 years felt like stepping straight into a memory. I used to go to the middle school right across the street, and this deli was one of my absolute go-to spots growing up. Whether it was after class or during lunch breaks, Oakpark was that place where you ran in hungry and walked out happy every single time.

The first thing I had to order when I came back was their poutine — the one I used to swear by as a kid. And honestly, I’m amazed… it tastes exactly the same. The same rich gravy, the same perfectly melted cheese, the same golden fries that hit different after a long day at school. It brought me right back to being 13 years old, backpack slung over one shoulder, sitting with friends and enjoying something that always felt like a treat.

There’s something special about a place that stays true to itself for over a decade. The vibe, the warmth, the familiar comfort — Oakpark Deli still has all of that. It’s rare to find a spot where the food not only holds up but instantly reconnects you with your younger self.

If you grew up in the area, you know exactly what I mean. And if you didn’t, this is the perfect example of a neighborhood classic that doesn’t need to reinvent anything — it’s already great at what it does.

I’m genuinely glad I went back. Same taste, same feeling, same comfort. Some places just become part of your story, and Oakpark Deli is definitely one of mine.“

“My 42 year old niece, who has Down's Syndrome, has worked at Lemon and Allspice for many years. When she got the job with Lemon and Allspice after high school, it gave my niece an opportunity to obtain meaningful employment (no mean feat for those with disabilities in those days) and even more importantly have a sense of purpose and take pride in what she loved to do: bake. I applaud Carolyn Lemon for her foresight in establishing Lemon and Allspice as a workplace haven and much-needed employment opportunity for adults with disabilities.“

“I used Elle Cuisine to cater snacks to a client presentation yesterday. I had specific needs that they be gluten free and vegan. Elle Cuisine did an amazing job and the clients were "blown away" to see that the snacks were customised to their values. The selection of options and presentation was great. It make a big impression and contributed to a successful meeting. I can't thank the team at Elle enough! I'll be sure to use Elle again and the client is planning a Grand Opening and will be looking to Elle for their catering needs as well.“

Thanks to Flavio and the whole Meza Group team!“

We’ll definitely be ordering again!“

“The Food Dudes provided extremely exceptional and professional service. Camila was the representative for our wedding and she was very flexible and accommodating. She paid attention to all of the details and executed cocktail hour, dinner service and late night eats flawlessly. Aside from the amazing service leading up to the wedding, I would say that the food is just as good, or maybe even better! The beef filet was delicious! Our guests couldn't stop talking about the dinner. They also have very good vegetarian options as well! I would 100% recommend Food Dudes if you are looking for event catering.

All the staff working at our event were extremely friendly, polite, and so professional. Their presence ensured we could relax and enjoy the party to its fullest.

“Order the medium size turkey dinner was bigger then I expected and the sides were amazing. The turkey was well season and so tender and soft not dry at all. It was wonderfully delicious. All my party memeber could not get enough of the feast mcEwan provided to our table, was truly a feast to the eyes and stomach. Highly recommend following the reheating instructions, not only did it heat the turkey up to the a perfect temperature but the turkey skin came out nice and crispy was delightful. Will definitely order again“

“Gabe (Chef Revolution) is top shelf. After hearing from several trusted references, we hired Gabe to cater a dinner with 8 friends. His menu choices and suggestions were flexible to guest dietary needs, and the final menu was incredible. We savoured his blackened salmon with mango salsa and wild leek sauce. The vegy side of zucchini, asparagus, and red peppers was equally delicious. His fee is very reasonable and customer care outstanding. We will definitely ask Gabe to cater future dinners. Thanks Gabe.“

The guests raved about the food and the service was excellent. Food was delivered right on time and Debbie was very easy to deal with, providing a number of options and suggestions. All in all a wonderful 50th anniversary party. Happy to give Debbie and crew a 5 star rating.“

“Island Bakery and Take Out is truly a hidden gem in Scarborough for anyone who appreciates good food and genuine service. I have been buying food from this place for over 15 years, and the quality and consistency have kept me coming back.

The food here is tasty, well prepared, and full of authentic Sri Lankan Tamil flavors. At the same time, the menu also appeals to Caribbean customers, which speaks to how well balanced and approachable the food is. Whether you are familiar with Sri Lankan cuisine or trying it for the first time, the flavors are comforting and satisfying. Portions are generous, and the food feels home style rather than commercial.

The staff are always really nice, polite, and welcoming. You are treated like a regular, not just another customer passing through. The owner deserves special mention. He is a very friendly and hardworking gentleman who clearly takes pride in his business. You can tell a lot of effort goes into maintaining quality and keeping customers happy.

This place is also an excellent option for catering. I would strongly recommend Island Bakery and Take Out for functions, gatherings, and events where you want reliable food that people will actually enjoy and remember. Over the years, they have proven to be dependable and consistent, which matters a lot when ordering for a group.

Overall, Island Bakery and Take Out is one of those long standing neighborhood spots that quietly does everything right. If you are in Scarborough and looking for flavorful food, friendly service, and a place with a solid reputation built over many years, this is definitely worth visiting and supporting. Highly recommended. ❤️🇨🇦“

“I am so glad I happened upon this food truck/trailer near The Phoenix. I am usually wary of food stalls but I gathered a view and it looked exceptionally clean. I am so glad I order his jerk chicken dinner and I added extra chicken. Totally worth it and so flavourful. It really hit the spot. It's becoming harder and harder to find jerk chicken that hits the spot. JJs really was a gem that I was lucky to find. Thank you for the tasty meal and your pleasant service“

“음식이 찐입니다 음식 하나하나 정성이 느껴집니다“

“They delivered my lasagne on the wrong day and I was annoyed because I did not want to have to freeze it… but then we ate it. So meaty, so cheesy, and so delicious that any irritation disappeared after the first bite. Easily fed 12 people. Timing mishap fully forgiven. Will definitely order again. 🍝“

“Good place for lunch. Warm and crunchy toast, generous portions for salad and fairly priced. Got the food faster than fast food restaurants. There is really no reason to go to fast food restaurants with places like this. Faster, healthier and costs about the same.“

“Great kombucha - fresh flavours, like a sip of summer. The new themed dinners are fantastic - New Year's Eve dinner was excellent, perfect portion for two and delicious hearty foods.“

“best bakery... love chef andra and his wife... a pleasure going into their shop“

“Coffee, bagels, and especially the homemade butter tarts.“

“Delicious vegan Caribbean food in the heart of Kensington Market. Veggie D'light hits the spot for lunch on a weekend. I had their meal with jerk saitan, veggies and basmati/quinoa. I asked about the soup of the day and was promptly offered a taste by the friendly chef. Had the medium soup as well--a delicious rich soup with yams and coconut milk. Now I have a new favorite lunch spot.“

“My new hubby and I ordered their catering service for our wedding reception, and oh my goodness, it was the best food ever! The price was absolutely amazing for what we wanted (BBQ Chicken and Ribs with all the fixings). Danielle was also amazing, had everything set up on time, and looked great, she was perfect with all our guests. The one thing everyone was saying about our wedding was how great the food was, I really could not have hoped for better. Thanks so much En Route Catering for helping make my wedding day perfect! ❤️“

“A great local place. Staff are always so friendly, the coffee is the best, food is amazing, and there are so many unique food gift items in the shop.“
