I have only positive things to say about my recent wedding here at scavellos. My wedding turned out so much better than I could’ve ever imagined. Being the bride I didn’t get to enjoy the actual wedding as much since I was running around taking pictures every 5 minutes but I’ve received so much praise from all my guests about the food and service as well as how nice the venue itself was. Michaela and Paul at Scavellos really made it so easy for us to plan this wedding and make sure everything was perfect. They are really the nicest people on earth and couldn’t be more responsive and helpful. Even the day of staff were super attentive and had all the left over food and cake packed up for us and ready to go. My wedding turned out beautiful thanks to Scavellos :)
I got married in August and it was truly the most perfect day! I didn’t have to stress out, because Paul was running a tight ship. All of the staff at Scavello's was great. The entire planning process was easy and they were able to execute everything I imagined. My Bridal Attendant Michaela was there every step of the way and made sure everything went smoothly. Everyone went above and beyond. I couldn’t have asked for anything better. Our families are still gushing over the amazing time they had. Five stars is not enough to describe how wonderful of an evening we had!
There are no words that can describe how beautiful this place is and how attentive and friendly the people are. I felt catered to through out the entire affair. I would never consider any other place for any future parties. I have been to many nice & expensive places, but nothing tops this place!!! Affordable pricing and Top Notch Food and Service! My guests can not stop talking about this place. We are getting calls everyday on how beautiful and how wonderful the food and service were!
The owners should be proud of owning such a wonderful place and having such great people working there!!
This is the best venue in the Bronx!!! This place makes any party a platinum party!!
Thank you for making my day special and memorable!!

I had mynwesskng reception here after I moved it initially from Cortlandt Colonial
Manor. I was told "Scavellos would match the pricing and guaranteed the food would be of better quality. We weren't able to sample the food. The day up to my wedding was filled with countless back and forth issues regarding package pricing and issues with not even having the bridal suite available until the morning of my wedding. The bridal suite did not have a separate bathroom to change for the bride either. During my reception there were dirty plates that was brought to my attention afterwards by multiple guest and bridal party. The venue also started cleaning up towards the end of my reception when we still had an hour left. (Tacky) for the amount of money we paid it was not worth it. I should have left my reception At Cortlandt Colonial manor. I don't recommend this venue.
I celebrated my Wedding on August 19th, 2017 at Scavello's On The Island and I cannot say enough about our great experience. We chose Scavello's based on a recommendation from a friend who was a guest at a previous wedding at this Venue. My husband and I put a lot of time into planning the perfect celebration for our Wedding day and we wanted to make sure everything went well. Michaela (wedding planner) was sooo amazing to work with every step of the way! She handled everything so professionally and took care of all the details so that we were able to enjoy our day as well as our guests. The food was excellent. The waiters and waitresses were very attentive to all of our requests. The entire staff was more than welcoming and made sure everything was perfect. Food and drink both exceeded our expectations. Paul (Mgr) was easy to talk to, always very nice and caring. They handled everything so professionally! My entire family and friends complimented that everything was perfect. People are still talking about what a great time they had and how amazing the food was! I highly recommend Scavello's for any special event...I know we will be back for our next celebration!
Thank you so much for making our special day extra special. I really wish much success because you deserve it!
Paul and the staff at Scavello's made our special day very comfortable and relaxing, they will do whatever to please you and make your day worry free, there is a blessing on this place because of their good and willing hearts to please,we chose the Bridal Package,the work was done for us no headaches at all. The food was excellent and more than enough well worth the price, very professionally served. I would highly recommend Scavello's for any event especially if you're on a budget, it's well worth it Compared to all these other high ended places,because it is more than just a buck.
Sincerely Mr & Mrs Anthony Garzia
I don't know where to begin... Paul and his team are on top of their game and covered every detail to make our wedding a once in a lifetime event!! The food is amazing and there was a variety of options I had the chance to choose from. Everyone there is beyond friendly and eager to help, it made our night and the preparation for our wedding a breeze. You will not be disappointed by having your wedding here!! Thank you for making my day unforgettable
We just had our wedding ceremony and reception at Scavello's On The Island on June 11th. My husband and I can't say enough great things about this venue! From the moment we pulled up to the place while we were comparing venues, we knew this was the only place we could imagine getting married. The entire wedding planning process, from start to finish, was a dream because of the incomparable professionalism and sheer warmth of the staff. We've been so impressed by everything from the staff that felt like family, to incredible food (our guests commented it was by far the most delicious food of any wedding they've attended!), to a beautiful space that is stunningly well-kept.
We worked very closely with Paul for months on end planning the wedding. He managed to respond to all of the emails and requests to visit the space. Every time I came to Scavello's, Paul was there. He helped bring your thoughts and vision to a reality. All of the suggestions and offerings were spot on.
Right before I walked down the aisle, Paul was right by my side making sure I had everything I needed, and sweetly gave me a hug and a thumbs up! And this is really why I loved Scavello's . Having your wedding there feels like an intimate family affair.
Let's talk about the food; I don't even know where to start. Everyone was so impressed! Our guests could not say enough about the food. All we have heard is " this is the best food, we have ever had at a wedding!" These are the comments that validate how amazing Scavello's is. We had a spread of 3 different stations plus passed hors d'oeuvres for cocktail hour and an amazing menu for dinner. We tried to cater to the likings of all of our guests. Paul was spot on with all of his recommendations. All of the guests left full and extremely happy. I can't leave out the personalized service at each table. Everyone we spoke to, felt as though they each had their own server.
By the end of our in-person meeting to finalize the food and details, Mike and I just left all the decisions in his hands. We knew the wedding was going to be perfectly executed. My personal recommendation to anyone looking for a wedding venue, is that you will not be disappointed having your wedding or event at Scavello's On The Island !
