27 Best Caterers near Cranston

“Keane’s was absolutely amazing! The food was beyond delicious. I’ve been to so many weddings where I can’t even remember the food, but I had been to two weddings catered by them prior to mine and their food stuck with me. I knew I had to have them for my own wedding, and they did not disappoint. One of the best parts was that they also provided an event coordinator. Alicia, my day of coordinator, was incredible! She was in touch with me months before the wedding, answering every single one of my questions, and on the day of she made everything run so smoothly. From the ceremony to the reception, she had everything perfectly organized, and I never had to stress. The catering staff was professional, attentive, and truly wonderful. They set up, cleaned up, and cleaned made sure everything was flawless. Our friends and family are still raving about how amazing the food was. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!“

“We use the catering gourmet for all our events. Food and staff is always amazing! Great for small gatherings and big events.“

“Simply horrendous!! The appetizers tasted old, Dinner was cold, BLAH!! Asked the bar for cranberry juice and got Hawaiian Punch!! Took over 3 hours for all of the courses to be served. Finally, the coffee was brought out! Yes, you guessed it—COLD AND OLD!! We never got dessert. Told waitress my husband didn’t feel well and I asked her if we could get a couple of pastries to go, she refused! Paid $40 X 2!! An awful lot of money for high priced garbage and service that took well over 3 hours to complete!!“

“We had the ice cream cart (yes, it's a thing) come to our school for teacher appreciation week. The teachers loved it and the staff member, Zee from Ben and Jerry's was so sweet. They also offer ice cream cakes and have an actual ice cream truck (which I didn't know). You definitely can't go wrong with ice cream!“

“401 Gourmet was exceptional in every way. Mark & Elizabeth were an absolute pleasure to work with—professional, attentive, and genuinely invested in making our day perfect. Their attention to detail was impeccable, and their team was courteous, organized, and polished from start to finish. We are so grateful for the care and excellence you brought to our special day. xo Sandra & Al“

“The catering for the coalition was superb. The chicken was so tender, the meatballs were flavorful, the food was fresh and hot. The Chocolate chip cookies though put a smile on everyone's face.“

“Great experience grabbing some of their fresh made food. Homemade chicken empanadas and beef patties stuffed with flavorful oxtail & creamy Mac and cheese. Everything had great layers of flavor you’d expect from that cuisine and tasted fresh. Danielle and the rest of the staff are super friendly and made the experience easy and relaxing. Would definitely recommend and order more regularly, even if eating more delicious food goes against my New Year’s resolutions“

“I got my order today and made my first set of gaggahs. OH. MY. GOD. I felt like I was home from 3,000 miles away!! Totally worth every penny!!“

“I recently had my baby shower at The Cafe and could not recommend them enough for any shower, meeting or event needs. First, Mike was a pleasure to work with. The communication was always constant and thorough. He was extremely helpful in the planning process. The place looked amazing on the day of the shower and the staff was so friendly and accommodating. Frank and Kim were the staff members on during my shower and they were amazing. I wish I had another need to use them for but will definitely use them again when the opportunity presents itself! The food was delicious and everyone at my shower could not stop raving about it. It made my baby shower perfect!“

“We hired young’s for our daughter’s sweet 16 and everyone loved everything and even went up for seconds… barely any leftovers… that’s how delicious it was. Highly recommend them for any event.“

“My husband and I had the wedding of our dreams at Glen Manor! The venue itself is obviously stunning, filled with beautiful art and architecture at every corner that provide the perfect backdrop for photos wherever you turn. Walking through the rooms feels like you've been transported back to the Gilded Age, and the grounds are whimsical, blending overflowing gardens with a beautiful ocean view for the best of both worlds.

But more important than the venue was the truly incredible Russel Morin team. I can't say enough complimentary things about this incredible group, especially our wedding coordinators, Dan and Emily! They are truly a team of seasoned professionals who know how to guide you through the intense and complicated wedding planning process, staggering decisions out across intervals to ensure it never becomes overwhelming, offering guidance while still respecting and delivering your ultimate vision. Dan and Emily have the calm demeanor and expertise of a ER doctor, preparing contingencies and flawlessly coming up with solutions on the spot to keep the whole event running smoothly anytime something didn't go according to plan.

And as if the venue and amazing team weren't enough, we have to rave about the food! I worked for several years as a private chef, and their culinary team exceed even my high expectations! The chefs were creative and flexible, working with us to craft a complex custom menu that tasted incredible! I was blown away - somehow the food was even better the day of when the culinary team was cooking for 150 guests versus during our intimate 2-person tasting. And I can't recommend the s'mores espresso martinis enough, our friends are still talking about them a month later!

We can't thank Russel Morin enough for ensuring our wedding really was the best day of our lives and for helping us through the year and a half long planning process with such kindness, professionalism, and dedication. Choosing them for your own event is not only the best decision you could make, it's a no brainer.“

“Bailey is so easy to place an order with. She has a fantastic menu. And we’ll the food…. It’s amazing! I may or may not have eaten 3 brownies in one sitting 😁“

“Was delish!!!!! I highly recommend trying one of their dishes. Stopped in for lunch for the first time. The girl was so friendly and helped recommend a dish as I had zero idea what to choose. I got the Chilli Mango bowl !“

“Absolutely AMAZING! This was my first time using a catering service - I've always done everything myself and then couldn't engage with my guests. B&M takes care of EVERYTHING -and then some! Days later and my guests are still raving about the food and service. It was the first time I truly enjoyed entertaining. (And portions are HUGE - everyone loved leaving with doggie bags!). B&M will always be my Go-To! Highly recommend.“

“I highly recommend Distinguish Catering. Our experience was smooth from start to finish and the food was excellent! The comments were very favorable and we will definitely consider Distinguish Catering for our future events and for referrals.“

“We recently attended a friends birthday party that Chef David prepared an outstanding 5 course meal for us. Each new dish had a unique and appealing look and taste. He prepared the best French onion soup I have ever tasted. The cold plates were cold and the hot plates were a perfect temperature for the seafood and beef dish. I would highly recommend him for any occasion!!“

“Tony from Huli Huli Island Pig Roasts is amazing! He is so friendly and personable, and is more than willing to work around your wants and needs. I was looking to do a pig roast for my husbands birthday, but wanted to find something that was financially sustainable (didn’t need a per person package for $60 a person like I had found else where!) Tony’s prices and extremely reasonable, and I appreciated that his sides were optional and that a package wasn’t required. The experience was amazing and the food was incredible! My husband and our guests were very impressed!“

“I recently hosted a birthday dinner at Brother & Moffat for a group of 13, and it was truly exceptional from start to finish. The space was beautiful and the ambiance was absolutely perfect for a private celebration. We had the entire place to ourselves, which made the evening feel even more special.

We enjoyed a customized 5-course menu, and every single dish was delicious. David also created amazing dining options for the vegetarians in our group, and they were just as flavorful and thoughtfully crafted as the rest of the menu. The amount and quality of food we received for the price was an incredible value. All of our guests left raving about the flavors, presentation, and overall experience.

The staff—and the owner, David—were attentive, professional, and completely on point all night. One of the highlights was the tableside dessert, which added a fun and memorable show to the evening.

Whether you’re planning a private dinner or just looking for a great meal, I would highly recommend Brothers & Moffat. They also offer a weekly menu you can order from, which makes their amazing food accessible even outside of events. Truly an unforgettable experience!“

“Food was fresh and cooked well. Planned for 50, fed about 35--and still no leftovers. Staff were professional, courteous, and accessible.Dave was always available by cell to answer questions and coordinate.Prices were reasonable and competitive.Certainly a value for the money spent.Will recommend.“

“We've now had two events catered by Achva (formerly Ahava) Catering, and we couldn't be happier with our choice. Freda and her team basically did two full bar mitzvah weekends for us - full catering for the main events, plus kiddush spreads and take-out items to supplement family meals. We're particular about menus and food quality, and Freda and her team couldn't have been more amazing about crafting the perfect elevated menus with us, and executing it all with perfect professionalism and warmth. They made it easy and pleasant, coordinted and helped on site with other vendors, and seriously impressed all our guests. I'm a high-end florist, and I know that Freda and her team are a dream to work with. Very enthusiastically recommend!“

“I am so happy I saw Nicole on The John DePetro Show! I have been ordering five meals per week for weeks now, and everything is delicious and healthy! It’s a huge time saver, and the meals are fresh and easy to heat up in the microwave. Nicole is also very accommodating when substitutions need to be made. I highly recommend!“

“Ja Patty is a favorite! The food has so much soul and flavor. I love the gluten free bowl options but also love patties as well. Not only is the food 10/10 but the owners are such lovely supportive people. I first came to Rhode Island 11 years ago and they made me feel right at home. Thank you both for your commitment to community and flavorful cuisine.“

“Have been to a lot of pig roasts, but Carl Cordeiro and his team do one Hell of a Job. .. by far the best I've had the pleasure of being a part of. Their ritual style preparation of pig roasting was amazing too watch, turn after turn and constant rotation as well continuous basting... through the hours of their roasting of the pig the aroma grew better and better by the hour. And during the whole time their camaraderie was amazing. I truly enjoyed being a part of it. then got to partake in the eating of said awesome pig... I would recommend Good too the Bone Pig Roast for any type of party or fundraiser!!!“

“Everyone there are awesome and helpful. I refer everyone I meet to them now.“

“I recently gave my son a catered event for his 40th birthday. We had 15 family members that could make it. He chose a week when he was renting a beach house at Bonnet Shores and decided to have the birthday meal there.. I reached out to O'Shucks catering with those details to confirm a date. Sean, the manager, emailed me asking for a time to for a call to walk me through how the ordering process worked.
He called promptly, and followed up when I told him of the items and quantities I thought would work from their menu. He advised me to reduce the amounts of a few items as I was ordering too much for our group.
The menu and Sean's help made everything work flawlessly.
We had the party last night and the comments from everyone were so positive that I wanted to write this review this morning.
The raw oyster and shrimp cocktail presentation made an impression on all and were delicious. Shrimp were firm and delicious and the Rhode Island and Maine oysters both were great as were the steak tenderloin, swordfish, stuffies, stuffed mushrooms and clam chowder. We added some veggies, Mac and cheese (for the kids) and a salad. We each had our favorite item and there was enough for seconds.
By the way the delivery was by Sean (don't know if this is always the case) and was on time. What a bonus!!
I highly recommend O'Shucks for any event where seafood is featured. they met every expectation we had and more.“

“I was there doing utility work and I was offered a free lunch. These people are kind and their food is great.!“

“We used Cabral's Catering for our wedding this past weekend and behind the rave reviews for our amazing DJ, the reviews for the food were second on the list. It was absolutely DELICIOUS. We went with a BBQ theme- pulled pork, chicken thighs, mashed potatoes, mac n cheese, green beans, corn bread and OF COURSE Portuguese rolls. Sonia and Armando knocked it out of the park. The mashed potatoes were the best I have ever had. So much so that I found myself in the back of the kitchen eating them after dinner was done because I didn't have as much as I wanted while mingling with our guests! The price was spot on for what they delivered. Sonia was so easy to work with, keeping me in the loop the whole time. I really truly appreciate what they delivered for our special day. THANK YOU! :)“
