One of the best decision we've made for our wedding!!!

We couldn't ask for more!!! Food Cafe catering service set the standard. Eliscia and Rich was accommadating and professional as they made sure went as planned. Eliscia has been wonderful and a pleasure to work with.. attentive, much attention to details and warm. The Maître d' Joe and the catering team were superb during the wedding. They showed up and did an amazing job. The food...oh yes... the food was delicious. Our guest kept messaging us of how much they enjoyed the food at our wedding.

Incredible caterers with amazing food and service!

Foodies Cafe & Catering LI catered our wedding at the Mariner Estate, Great Neck. The food was absolutely amazing and beautifully and freshly prepared! So many of our guests came up to us at the wedding and raved about the variety of food at the cocktail hour and their delicious meal at our sit down dinner. We coordinated with Foodies Catering Manager & Event Coordinator, Eliscia to plan our menu. Eliscia is a pleasure to work with and very professional. Eliscia was always available to guide and answer questions through the planning process. Rich, owner and chef of Foodies Cafe, takes great pride in preparing an exceptional meal the day of the wedding. We had a personal tasting session with Rich several months before the wedding, which helped in making our menu selections. We enjoyed working with Rich and Eliscia this past year! They listened to us about how we envisioned our day and the food we wanted at the wedding. On our wedding day, Maitre’D, Joe was so wonderful and caring throughout the day. He coordinated the flow of events for the day, flawlessly and pleasantly. All the wait staff and bartenders were polite and attentive to our guests. One of the most important aspects of a wedding is the food, and Foodie Cafe prepared and served a 5 star menu for our guests!! We highly recommend them!!

Amazing Food, Planning and Team!!!

Foodies Cafe was the absolute best! From organizing day of flow and themes to every delicious bite on the menu and decor. They made sure all my needs were met and on the day of went above and beyond to make sure everything was handled. My wedding was at Planting Fields, a place that doesn’t do weddings. Foodies Cafe made sure to organize every aspect of the wedding so that it felt like an out of this world experience. My guests were blown away by how gorgeous the venue looked as well as how delicious the food was. Usually when you go to a wedding they serve typical wedding cocktail and main course food, but Foodies really delivered by making my event a seafood lovers dream! My family/guests love seafood so they were in food paradise when clams, oyster and lobster was being passed left and right during cocktail hour. Our guests were so full on cocktail food we had an extended toast with no complaints everyone was still digesting all the good food from cocktail hour. Rich is an amazing chef and the food was so fresh and so tasty. And Eliscia was so hands on when planning my wedding. If we had any questions they were there to answer prior to the wedding and on the day of they were quick to answer and resolve anything that popped up. Their team is also very kind. My guests felt so comfortable with their team members as they answered all questions and kept my guests smiling not just from the food but from their friendly service. I cannot thank Foodies Cafe enough for making my dream wedding come true! I highly recommend them to anyone hosting a wedding in the tri-state!

Beautiful Bridal Shower Experience!

My mom hired Rich and Foodies LI Cafe for my bridal shower and everything was absolutely perfect. I am incredibly particular and had a vision for how I hoped my shower would be and Rich really helped my mom bring it to life. Everything was presented so beautifully, the staff was so great and the food was absolutely delicious. I couldn't recommend them more!

Wonderful Company

We contacted this caterer after stumbling across their website, we were impressed with the menu options. They were very quick to respond to our inquiry and it was so easy working with them. We created the menu we wanted with suggestions from their team. We were able to schedule a tasting with the chef, Rich, he is so personable and pleasant to work with. We had a short time frame to find a caterer and this was a great decision. From start to finish the party was great, they helped with set up, their staff was awesome and Rich was there himself cooking! Would definitely work with them again!

Nothing but good things to say!!

I attended a shower catered by Foodies last fall and we had a great time! Their brunch buffet was delicious! We loved the omelette station and the mini desserts. The staff was so pleasant and helpful. There were a few dietary issues in my group, and the chef had no problems accommodating them! My sister in law loved the event so much she contracted with them for her wedding and they have been extremely accommodating since COVID, really a pleasure to deal with!
