On Safari catered my daughter's wedding reception. They were outstanding in every way - from Elizabeth, the Operations and Catering manager, to Hannah, our incredible wedding coordinator, to the amazing food and service and staff at the reception. We had a vegetarian and vegan menu, with nut free and gluten free options and On Safari set it all up beautifully and it was all absolutely delicious. Thank you all so much!

When we first had a tasting, it wasn't quite right and we were pretty worried about the final outcome. I sent On Safari blunt, honest feedback, and they truly listened and adapted our menu until it was exactly what we envisioned. The food at our wedding was delicious, the communication and collaboration was excellent during the menu creation process, and everyone was incredibly kind and clearly cared deeply that we were happy with the meal.
Also, our main coordinator had a serious family emergency the week before our wedding and handled it with incredible grace and professionalism. She stayed communicative and made sure we felt confident that everything would work out perfectly despite the fact that it would have been completely understandable if she had to take a step back.

Four stars because the accounting department accidentally overcharged us (did not seem intentional at all and they corrected it after we caught the issue) and because we had to pay $250 for a second tasting after the menu items from the first tasting were disappointing.

On Safari Foods catered a birthday party at my house for about 25 people. From beginning to end it was a smooth and easy experience. Elizabeth Zipper, the operations and catering manager, was extremely responsive and easy to work with as we planned the details and menu. Eric, the chef, prepared a delightful and delicious meal that our guests just loved. The lead server, Tony, did an amazing job organizing, serving, cleaning up and making sure everyone had what they needed. I was so pleased with the entire experience and our guests all had a great time. I would work with this company for future events without any hesitation. I highly recommend their service!

On Safari Foods catered our daughter's June outdoor graduation party at our home. The owner, Teresa Carew, came to our house and guided us through menu choices to ensure the food was customized to our preferences and all the settings were appropriately arranged. The staff arrived punctually, worked very hard and were very delightful to work with. They went above and beyond to provide great service. The presentation was elegant and the food was absolutely delicious which left us with a memorable gastronomical experience. Guests are raving post-party!
I would highly recommend On Safari Foods to cater your events with a personal touch. OSF will be our go-to caterers going forward. Thank you Teresa and staff.

On Safari delivered an unforgettable culinary experience for our event this week. Several of our guests commented on how delicious all the appetizers were. They set up a beautiful presentation for the appetizers I ordered. The desserts are amazing! I had to try one of everything to ensure they tasted yummy…and they did not disappoint!The catering staff anticipated our needs without being intrusive. Kimberly expertly attended the open bar, and Tony was on top of the food and cleanliness of the general area as people wandered about. They made our guests feel very special and warmly welcomed people as they entered our event area. It was clear that they take pride in their work.If you’re planning an event, don’t hesitate to book them now—your taste buds will thank you! We love having On Safari our GO-TO caterers!

On Safari Foods came through! With a fine attention to detail that made the event flow effortlessly. We loved Elizabeth and her crew! She went above and beyond throughout the night and even at the end when she insisted on sweeping the floor for my friend so we could load the car to meet the 11pm deadline ❤️. On Safari showed expertise, professionalism and the staff had a fun vibe that helped ease my worries all night. I will be hiring them again for our next kid's Bar Mitzvah down the pike.

Elizabeth helped us figure out a menu within our budget for a party of 70+ people. She was very helpful, especially because we were looking for a catering option at the last minute. Definitely recommend giving them a try as thejr service is very competitively priced and their planning service is responsive and extremely polite!

We hired On Safari for our wedding. We were very excited to find a caterer that could put together a fully vegan menu. The food was delicious! Our guests really enjoyed the meal. There were a few small issues, however. Despite a 30-40 person headcount, they did not bring enough alcohol. Only a few minutes into cocktail hour they realized that they were low. This was resolved, but it was frustrating that they were not prepared. We were also disappointed that the staff continued to bring up the issue. We had a day-of coordinator who could have assisted with handling the issue, but instead the staff came to us (the bride and groom) several times, and told our family members as well. This was also the case with broccoli being brought instead of broccolini. While that was a minor issue, we did not want to be told about these things while we were enjoying the day. Overall, the food was the positive takeaway.

What an amazing experience! We had a large birthday celebration catered by On Safari foods with a delicious taco bar! Everything was so flavorful and fresh. The home made chips and salsas are to die for. The chicken tinga and beef barbacoa as well! Definitely 5 stars!
