Fantastic food, service and price!

Emily's catering is as close to perfection as you can find in caterer. Let me start with their service. From the start they answered every question and worked with us every step of the way. And at our daughter's wedding on 11/6/21 they went way above catering service by helping us set up the chairs, decorations, memory table while putting together a beautiful table. Everyone, and I mean everyone was impressed with the food, from the appetizers to the deserts it was delicious!! The staff attended to every detailed, got us more wine to avoid going to the bar and there was so much great food!! They are worth every penny and their prices are very competitive and better than most. They made our daughter's wedding a pure joy. I would recommend them without reservation. Thanks to Jana and her team, Cheryl and Rick.

HIRE THEM immediately, outstanding food AND service

I can't say enough great things about Emily's Catering! ***HIRE THEM immediately for your next event!***

I was recently married in August in Derby, Connecticut and utilized Emily's for our catering service. I can confidently say Rick and the entire Emily's Catering team made our wedding day so incredibly special. From the beginning, Rick and Cheryl went above and beyond. During the planning process, Emily's instantly wowed us with their thoughtfulness and expertise in the space. (The tasting was especially fantastic!!) Rick presented us a dynamic menu, one that we knew would impress and satisfy our guests. From delicious passed hors d'oeuvres to pre-ceremony popcorn, unbelievably beautiful plated dinners cooked to perfection and an array of yummy bite-sized desserts, each detail was executed with precision and an immense amount of care. Our guests are STILL talking about the food, especially our wedding cake :) The service and the presentation were both outstanding!!!

And the service—hire them not only for the amazing food but for the five-star service! Our wedding day forecast unfortunately had rain, but that didn't stop Emily's from catering our event as originally planned. Although there were hurdles from our outdoor venue that were out of our control, Rick and Cheryl jumped into action. Countless phone calls were made, updating us every step of the way, and within two hours the team found a solution. It was so comforting knowing the commitment their team passionately has for delivering the best possible service to their clients. We truly can't thank Rick, Cheryl, and the entire Emily's catering enough for saving the day.
