You will blow your guests minds with the food from Above and Beyond! Everything was outstanding, truly amazing, and Jill was so easy to work with. Every offering was unique, inventive and open to be customized for what we wanted. Our guests told us they were so full from eating everything during the cocktail hour that they didn’t have room for dinner, then cleaned their plates of Short Ribs anyway. They made fresh smores on the dance floor for us! The pareve milkshakes were unreal and the fried Oreos were insane. Book Above and Beyond and thank yourself later. Truly spectacular!

It’s been a month since my daughter’s wedding weekend and we are still gushing about the fabulous time we and our guests had. Two truly memorable weekend events were the culmination of partnering with Jill Lamstein, owner of Above and Beyond Catering: a Shabbat dinner for nearly 60 people at our home, and the wedding event for 160 at the Hudson House two days later. Jill proved to be much more than just a caterer of food, assisting us with party rentals, floor plans and more.

Here is an excerpt from a note I sent to Jill expressing our deep appreciation for her work:

“[My husband] and I are ever grateful for having you as a partner throughout the planning and implementation phases of [our daughter’s and her fiance’s] wedding. Your invaluable assistance and availability, your cheerful disposition, the love with which you approach your work, your knowledge and skill, your approachability, your cooperative working relationship with other vendors made it a truly easy partnership, compatible in every way with our needs. All of these attributes were reflected in your staff, both on Erev Shabbat at our home and on Sunday, 8/20/2023, at the Hudson House. Everything was as expected, plus some. On both occasions, the food choices we were offered were both wonderful and surprising; the food at the events was absolutely delicious; the presentations lovely; the staff and service excellent, friendly and efficient. Your abilities went beyond just catering the food. We are very thankful to have found you.”

Above & Beyond Catering is beyong amazing. It was beyond fabulous working with Jill. The food was beyond delicious. I can't stop raving about the food and service we received. Our guests at the wedding are still talking about how fabulous the food was. I highly recommend!
