Dish Catering

owledgeable about all aspects of putting on a wedding reception and quick to offer suggestions when we were stumped. We were sold after the tasting - the food is genuinely good, not just wedding-food-good - but the price was a bit out of our range. James and the Dish team worked on some menu options that simplified the spread and brought the price to a range we could manage. The food on the wedding day lived up to our memories from the tasting, from the big cocktail hour spread to the well-seasoned brisket & butternut squash lasagna as part of the buffet. We received many compliments from guests about how good the food was! In addition to the home-run-level food, Dish sorted everything with the tables, chairs, bar setup & liquor. There were tons of options at various price levels for designs, shapes, sizes, etc. All of it looked great, and we are so happy that we went with Dish for our wedding!

supportive of all of our ideas! He was ALWAYS prompt in responses to emails (and when his email wasn't working - he even texted me to let me know why he hadn't responded). I was thrilled when he was our captain for the actual wedding day... he helped everything go smoothly, even taking the time to remember my favorite cheese (which I told him A YEAR EARLIER) and to bring it to me during cocktail hour! The guests RAVED about the food and loved the whole set-up. I will truly miss chatting with James - he made wedding planning a breeze! You have no reason to look any further for the best caterer -- it's Dish!!

nd somehow remained patient and understanding through all of my non stop emails and Jen was there to execute it all the day of our wedding. They both went above and beyond to make sure we had a great day. James came the day before to make sure we were comfortable with everything and even came early the morning of to personally help set up.. Jen came up to us through out the night and brought us food to make sure we were eating, which was much appreciated. All of our guests, including us loved the food .. I just can't say enough good things about them .. I highly recommend them! Thank you James and Jen!!!

ive, and patient! The event would not have been the same without his help before the day and on site during the event. The food was incredible- many guests commented that it was the best food at at wedding they had ever had! You will NOT find a better vendor. Thank you James and DISH!! We can't stop talking about how wonderful the day was!!!

ssional and courteous. All my guests were raving about the food. Thanks to James Maroldi and his staff for helping to make my wedding day perfect!

ing day and a huge fan of LOTR, to make our menu look and feel like it could have come from Hobbiton. Our guests were met with Lothlorien iced tea, and the delicious, wonderful appetizers were straight from the Prancing Pony. We had a first course of Buckleberry Clam Chowder (Manhattan Clam, and the best I've had), with a basket of garlic lembas bread. We had whole "Misty Mountain" boar, and Rosey Cotton's famous chicken, roasted in lemon and garlic. I think you get the idea. The food was plentiful and delicious, and everything that I could have asked for. When my wife (fiancé at the time), myself, and my mother-in-law met James for the first time, we went out to their facility to have a tasting of everything they might provide, and to finalize the menu. He offered us tea, coffee, wine, and made sure we had whatever we wanted- making us as comfortable as if we were in our own home. He went over every detail with us, getting our colors right on the tablecloths, making sure my wife got her Manhattan Clam chowder, and changing the appetizers he suggested so that I could get some Buffalo Chicken Spring Rolls, which were some of the most delicious things that ever went in my mouth. We also got to sample various cakes, and ultimately decided on a cake bar for everyone else, and a small cake that looked like Bag End for my wife and myself. The cake on the day was beautiful and delicious, dripping chocolate and mixed berries when we sliced into it…. And then smeared it on each other’s noses. I walked away from that first meeting stuffed to the gills and more than confident in our choice of caterer. DISH was very accommodating and helpful at every turn; they helped us find the tent rental and they provided all the tables and chairs for both our reception area and the actual ceremony site on the other side of the property. We made our own centerpieces and they helped place them at the tables, as well as some mints we made as favors. They allowed us to use our own silverware that had been given us as a gift for all the tables, rather than insisting on fine china- but we did have that option if we had wanted it. The setup, event itself, and cleanup was in the best of hands, and worth every penny. The staff was professional and efficient, and didn’t get frustrated or annoyed with the groom running around like a chicken with his head cut off, making sure everything was perfect for his wife (the sound system I got working just as guests arrived at the ceremony area). Our bartender was perfect as well, monitoring the inebriation of our guests and keeping everything in stock and cold. I appreciated his levity, and he ensured that whatever I wanted was available. Mike even managed to get a few awesome photos of my wife while she was getting ready to ride her horse across the property, and was more than happy to share them with us. I have rarely encountered such wonderful passion for what someone does as I encountered with DISH. Every employee I saw seemed glad to be there, and happy to help with anything they could. They genuinely wanted to make our day as wonderful as possible. Their customer service was beyond reproach, and the quality of their product overall is impeccable.

to sample the entire meal and FULL samples. We ate like kings at our tasting. James made it easy and fun for us during the entire process. He helped with the biggest details down to the ones we would have forgotten. The wedding was incredible and a fairy tale for me. The food was RAVED about all night by our guests. They also set up our entire venue and made our vision come to life. We can't thank them enough for their kindness and patience dealing with our crazy requests. Thank you to Dish and James for making that day so memorable. I felt like I was working with family. James did an amazing job and we can't thank him enough. So thank you again James and Dish.

o helpful and accommodating leading up to the wedding. His staffed worked so hard the days before and day of the wedding to make sure the event went off without a hitch. I felt so confident during the day that everything was being handled! I never had to worry about a thing because of him! The food was exceptional - everything from the cocktail hour, dinner and dessert was delicious! Our guests are still talking about the food. I highly recommended Dish Catering for any event

g you would like to have at your wedding, so sweet! They were so accommodating, understanding of my adjustments and budget worries as we got closer to the date, and amazing in the weeks before; joining us for a final walk through without any complaints. The day of James ensured everything ran the way we wanted, even if it meant small adjustments to the schedule, and all but forced us to eat during our cocktail hour, which was much appreciated. The very best!

I highly reccommend them!

re a perfect fit for us. James patiently answered every question and solved every potential problem that came up during the planning process, including adjustments and changes to the menu and last minute napkin choices. His helpful opinions and wealth of experiences helped guide us to confidently make decisions about all the important little details for both events. James and the DiSH staff also helped coordinate all of the tent and lighting rentals, as well as helping to coordinate the purchase and delivery of the alcohol for our event. We also had the pleasure of working with Jonathan for our wedding reception. The entire DiSH team was a true pleasure to work with, we had many guests come up to compliment us not only on the choice of amazing foods, but also to tell us how friendly, professional and unobtrusive the entire catering staff was. The food was truly amazing. At our Rehearsal Dinner our guests could not stop talking about the delicious and juicy grilled chicken and grilled flank steak. We selected the signature S’mores service for our Rehearsal Dinner dessert and our guests could not stop talking about how fun it was to spend time together around the “camp fire” and enjoy the delicious homemade marshmallows – a truly unique experience! At our Reception, our guests could not stop raving about the food, from cocktail hour straight through to dessert. We had so many compliments about the food and in particular, about the delicious wedding cake. Our only regret in choosing DiSH is that we did not get to enjoy enough of the amazing food on our wedding day because we were so busy greeting our guests and spending time with them. At both cocktail hour and during the reception, we were each brought a plate of food to enjoy, but the excitement of the day took over and we never got to enjoy the full deliciousness of the food. Now we joke we have to find a friend looking to cater an event and make sure they choose DiSH so we can enjoy all the goodness of DiSH catering!
