Amazing Food and Service

I don't know where to start with Jessica and her team. From day 1 they were knowledgeable and professional. The menu options were diverse (we chose beef and seafood) and the food was soooo good (get their crab cakes). Even on a cool November evening, they managed to serve us warm food with a smile. The wait staff was unobtrusive and very helpful. The bartenders were fun and willing to make any drink you'd like. Bayside is not the least expensive (nor the most), but I will say they were worth every penny. They even worked with my very rude venue host with a smile and courtesy. I highly recommend Bayside for your event.

Best in the business!

Bayside Catering exceeded all our expectations for our wedding! From start to finish, their team delivered an exceptional culinary experience that our guests are still raving about.

Working with Jessica during the planning process was a dream. She was attentive, creative, and always responsive to our ideas and questions. Her expertise in crafting our menu was invaluable.

On the big day, Ben took the reins as our lead, and we knew immediately we were in capable hands. His professionalism and attention to detail ensured everything ran smoothly.

The food was absolutely outstanding. We started with delicious appetizers that set the tone for the evening. The oyster bar was a hit among our guests, adding a touch of luxury to our cocktail hour. The main course was nothing short of amazing - every dish was perfectly prepared and beautifully presented.

What really impressed us was the range of their services. Not only was the dinner exceptional, but their bartending service was top-notch, ensuring our guests were well taken care of throughout the night. And just when we thought it couldn't get any better, we had incredible late-night bites that gave our reception the perfect finishing touch.

The catering staff was professional, attentive, and seemed to anticipate our needs before we even realized them. Their seamless service allowed us and our guests to fully enjoy the celebration without worry.

If you're looking for a caterer who can provide a complete, high-quality dining experience for your wedding, look no further than Bayside Catering. They truly went above and beyond to make our day special and delicious. Thank you, Jessica, Ben, and the entire Bayside team, for helping make our wedding day absolutely perfect!

So delicious!!

My husband and I both love bayside for a simple lunch and wanted to incorporate it in our wedding. There were so many sides to choose from when creating our menu and we could personalize it with our favorites! When it came to communication, they were amazing and made the booking process easy. Our wedding day was such a breeze with them! Ben was absolutely amazing on our wedding day and kept checking up on us, had our plates already prepared and was so sweet! It was so nice to hear from our guests that they not only loved the food but also the overall service! Thank you bayside for our first delicious meal as Mr. And Mrs!
