Just a Nibble NYC

Nicholas and his crew catered an outdoor party for us in Park Slope in June. The event was a "last bash" as we departed for Manhattan and we had no mental room to think through anything but the outcome we wanted. Everything was handled. Soup to nuts. The crew was professional (you didn't even notice them except that the garden was always spotless, drinks always filled and food was always on hand!). The bartender kept up with demand, and the food was excellent. I will definitely be using Just A Nibble again. Thank you Nicholas.

There are not enough stars to do justice to this truly exceptional catering company. They are the best wedding decision we actually made. I will discuss here the four facets of Just a Nibble that make them a cut above the rest: Food, Presentation, Professionalism, and Awesomeness of owner Nick Miller (yes you read that correctly). The first is Food, obviously. The cuisine at JAN speaks for itself and is delicious, creative, and made delicately and diligently from the finest ingredients by talented Chef Mark. Their menu boasts of a range of elegant choices, intertwining comfort foods with fancy cuisine, of many styles--exactly what you want from a wedding caterer, in my opinion. For appetizers we had coconut shrimp, glazed chicken skewers, Thai spring rolls, truffle fries, and asparagus and gruyure tarts. All of these were delectable and covered the range of flavor profiles we wanted. The guests were raving over these and couldn't get enough. The plated salad was just the amount of freshness to balance what came after. For entrees we had braised short ribs, farmhouse chicken, and vegan lasagna. Both meats were cooked to perfection, and prepared with succulent flavor and texture, completely holding up in taste and texture to being served to 120 people (an important factor to consider). We were so impressed by the vegan lasagna. The vegetable sides were superb, flavorful, and fresh. My personal favorite was the potatoes au gratin. The creaminess and herb note in them was unforgettable. Chef Mark is genius! Presentation---what first actually led us to JAN was the reputation of their creativity in display that is customizable to the event. Our venue (Dumbo Loft) in late Autumn had a rustic feel, so JAN used the parlor book and antique oak serving dishes, and awesome little trinkets for holding hors d'oeuvres. Everything LOOKED amazing in addition to being delicious! Thirdly, professionalism. The team at Just a Nibble is highly courteous, professional, helpful, and trustworthy. On the day of the wedding, their servers (many whom we got to meet beforehand) were all-hands-on-deck and top notch. They are hardworking and have great personalities. Clearly they have been hand-picked over the years and are treated with respect and friendship at the company, and this makes a HUGE difference in performance and attitude. Bartender Jonah was awesome and customized our drinks and let us name them! The guests loved the creativity of our bar set-up. Captain Alex took care of us (bride and groom) at the wedding and made sure all of our needs were met and exceeded. He was wonderful and caring. Our tasting was its own little exquisite event where Mark and Nick took our feedback and helped us narrow things down to the perfect menu at the end. Their staff were such team-players. Lastly, the owner and point of contact Nicholas Miller (Nick) is responsible for our wedding defying our expectations of greatness. He's a professional caterer with a company that delivers all of the above, but I'd like to add in that he became something of a supportive friend to me and my husband during the planning of this wedding with all of its ups and downs. Nick was there for us when we were thrown some curve-balls in the weeks leading up to the event. He advised us with his expertise and put our minds at ease. He is kind, genuine, easy to work with, and knowledgeable. His input and guidance melded with our vision to make this wedding more than what we ever dreamed of.

This is probably the sweetest and most down to earth catering company ever. And how could I say that about a company? Because it's run by Nick, the owner, who has a great group of people working with him. Words can't describe how grateful my husband and I are to every single person at Just a Nibble who made our wedding day so special and somehow even more perfect than we imagined it to be. We had an intimate backyard fall wedding and Nick helped execute our vision perfectly. I basically told him what I wanted and he said you got it! All of our guests were floored by the food prepared by Chef Marc along with his assistant and the incredible service from Alex, Xander, and Travis. Our family and friends could not stop talking about how wonderful and kind Nick's team was. They even thought we knew all of the staff personally. That's how much we were at ease on our wedding day! I will definitely work with Just a Nibble again for my next event! <3

Just A Nibble NYC is the best of the best when it comes to catering. I have hosted a few parties/events throughout my life — ranging from a low headcount to one of about 150 guests — and I have never worked with a caterer who was so professional and kind. From the moment of my inquiry, owner Nick Miller was warm and communicative, suggesting multiple menu options for my 75-person wedding. And the actual food! It was delicious — ridiculously flavorful and I just loved all of the one-of-a-kind menu items! My guests couldn’t stop raving about the food. The presentation was gorgeous and the service was impeccable. On the day of the event, everything flowed smoothly, and the sincere demeanor of the staff kept me calm. It was a perfect day. I will definitely be using Just A Nibble NYC again. 100%!!
