Highly recommend as wedding caterer for Indian food!

Amazing food and fantastic execution on our wedding day. We had many guests attending our wedding from India and they told me that this was the best Indian wedding food they had ever had, which is very high praise! We were so happy that our guests loved the food and the Benares team overdelivered on expectations. Ranbir was also very easy to work with and was willing to accommodate a lot of the unique requirements our venue had. Overall great experience and amazing food, would highly recommend as a wedding caterer for Indian food!

Absolutely Fingerlickingly Delicious!

Benares & Ranbir were a pleasure to work with! From the first tasting we did at the restaurant, he treated us like family and really worked to hear what we envisioned for the menu at our big day. They fully customized our menu to our liking, worked with us as we changed our minds a few times and most importantly, executed flawlessly on the big day. On the day of the event, Ranbir made sure to come check in with us and sneak us some bites as we were greeting our guests.

Even today, we have guests calling us, raving about the delicious food at our wedding. Cannot recommend Benares and Ranbir enough! They were absolutely, finger-lickingly delicious!

Benares was incredible! True professionals who provide some of the best Indian food to be had in the tri-state area and THE BEST service. Ranbir went out of his way to create a custom menu to accommodate all our guests' and family members' dietary restrictions (celiac, dairy intolerance, etc), and our guests raved about how it was both the best wedding food and best Indian food they had had, ever. Ranbir worked closely with us and our venue to set up a prep kitchen (no kitchen facilities at our venue) and incredible four-sided buffet with a South Indian (aka dosas and idlis) live station. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for both the best service and the best-tasting food one can get, for any event you might have.
