Gabrielle S. Sent on 10/22/2023Thank you Evalyn and Dish!
Thank you to Evalyn Carter and the entire Dish team for making our wedding so special. We are still getting rave reviews on the food and the service and can’t thank the team enough for everything they did to ensure our day was perfect. We started talking about this day 18 months ago…and the team totally made our vision come to life. Thank you so much to Evalyn and Dish! We could not be happier.Dish Food & Events's reply:
Hi Gabrielle + Chris - Thanks so much for this awesome review and congratulations on your wedding! It was a pleasure working with you. - Betty Kalin, VP -

Evalyn, Kayla and everyone from the Dish team were truly fantastic to work with. They were well organized, communicated clearly, everything looked beautiful, and most importantly the food tasted absolutely amazing. I can't recount how many of my wedding guests came up to me complimenting the cocktail hour and main course food. I would recommend Dish to anybody looking for a top notch experience and would absolutely work with Dish again in the future. -

I cannot recommend Evalyn and the team at Dish Foods highly enough. From the moment we first spoke to Evalyn about catering our wedding, she was incredibly helpful, attentive, and calm. She was absolutely instrumental in helping bring our wedding vision to life.
Throughout the entire planning process, Evalyn was super responsive, communicative, and always had helpful ideas and recommendations to offer. She made the entire experience so much easier and less stressful, and she went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect (from floor plan, to timeline, to day of execution, you name it) was flawless.
On the day of the wedding, Evalyn and her team were an absolute dream to work with. They were professional, courteous, and worked tirelessly to make sure that everything ran smoothly. Our guests were blown away by the food, which was not only delicious but also beautifully presented. We literally had people coming up to us throughout the night saying how great the food was as well as how attentive the staff was.
Overall, I cannot thank Evalyn and Dish Foods enough for helping to make our wedding day so special. We were so fortunate to work with a team that we trusted from beginning to end. If you are looking for a talented, dedicated, and all-around amazing caterer, look no further than Evalyn and Dish Foods. You (and your guests) will not be disappointed. -

An absolute dream to work with!!!
We cannot thank Dish enough for the most incredible, magical wedding! It was everything we wanted and more. I felt that the day went so smoothly and we had the absolute time of our lives. I am still recovering, lol. We have gotten endless compliments on the food and drinks, and the staff. My dad specifically was highly impressed with every single person on staff!
They were so adaptable to all of our GLUTEN FREE and VEGAN requests. The food was incredible and every guest had delicious food they could eat!
Evalyn was an absolute dream to work with and I would not have survived the wedding planning process without her! -

Andrea L. Sent on 11/30/2022Incredible fusion wedding food!
The one thing my now-husband and I agreed on fairly quickly in the wedding planning process is that food was our top priority. We both come from different backgrounds and wanted a vendor that could blend our cultures and provide elevated food that reflected us. Dish happened at the most perfect time – we were at our very first venue open house with nothing planned thus far and met with Evalyn during the peak of the pandemic (July 2020). She was so warm and engaging and the food at the open house looked amazing (we had to take it home because, pandemic). We came home, warmed everything up and were BLOWN AWAY by how good everything was! We’ve been to many weddings over the years and wedding food is always so mediocre, so to meet the very first vendor that totally upends the stereotype was mind blowing to us. We kept Evalyn in mind as we made some other major wedding decisions (mostly our venue and planner) before getting back to her. Our planner has worked with Dish and Evalyn, so we knew we were in good hands. From our very first tasting of our custom fusion menu, we knew Dish was our caterer. We met with Evalyn and Ryan and were totally blown away by both the food and hospitality! We planned our wedding over the course of two years and Evalyn always graciously answered our questions even when our wedding seemed so far off. When the time came to make rental and food decisions, Evalyn was an expert at curating everything for us based on our tastes and making the whole process as easy as possible. When we asked for another tasting before making our final decisions, she made sure we were able to come in to make our decisions two weeks out. The day of the wedding, everything was beyond perfect! As soon as our ceremony was over, Evalyn had our signature cocktails ready for us. All of our guests were raving about the food, from cocktail hour to dinner, and the service. I am seriously not kidding, we are still getting people raving about the food weeks later. This was exactly what we wanted! A custom, fusion menu that reflected us as a couple but was also delicious and was not “typical” wedding food. More importantly, Evalyn and the Dish team were there for every minute of the journey and were BEYOND all of our expectations. I hope we have many more occasions in our futures where we can cater with Dish! We are so lucky to have worked with Dish and to have them knock out one of the most important elements of our wedding day. -

Allison S. Sent on 10/04/2022INCREDIBLE, attentive, delicious service!
My husband and I booked Dish Food & Events for our wedding and we truly could not be happier that we did! Ashlyn and Michael as team leads were incredible - they worked with us regularly to ensure our special day was unique, fabulous and that we had food/beverages ALL our guests would enjoy. The Dish Food & Events staff was attentive to all 135 of our guests. Our guests let us know that we had some of the best food they've ever been served at a wedding ... and that was the ultimate compliment! BOOK WITH DISH! -

Our expectations were not only met by Dish but they far exceeded what we thought was even possible. We received more compliments on the food than we can count - especially with crowd favourites like the chicken & waffle cone and pigs in a blanket. Typical wedding catering “is average at best” but the Dish team - led by our event producer Ashlyn Rothenberg - just killed it and our guests made that known. Our “Simbar” (named after our rescue dog Simba) was also a huge hit and it is due in no small part to the fun bartenders who stationed that for us.
We really couldn’t have asked for a better team. We truly felt like we were in the industry’s best hands. They quelled all our fears and anxieties every step of the way - and handled god-knows-what fires behind the scenes on the day - so suffice it to say we owe the success of the wedding to whole Dish team.
We are grateful beyond measure to the them for being such great partners throughout this whole process making it as smooth and as easy as can be - for anyone still looking for a caterer, Dish is who you need! -

Kristin B. Sent on 04/24/2023Went above & beyond!
Dish was absolutely amazing to work with for our wedding! Beyond catering, Dish also coordinated all of our venue rentals, helping bring our tablescapes to life within a blank space. I do not know where I would have been without Michael’s help throughout our entire planning process! From acting as a sounding board from the beginning while chatting through budget and guest count, Michael was beyond helpful in working with us to understand exactly how we could achieve our dream hosting experience, while making great recommendations on best areas to scale back in order to stay within our budget without making any major sacrifices. Michael walked us through the rental showroom assisting with design recommendations all while keeping us in check on spend, in addition to hosting such a fun and intimate tasting experience leading up to our wedding. Dish’s amazing team knocked it out of the park on the big day, from the food and presentation to overall service and care for our guests throughout the entire evening. The best part is still having our guests rave about our food to this day – including our tray-passed espresso martini surprise-desserts, per Michael’s on-point recommendation. The arugula salads also were the stars of our tablescape photos! -

Dish Food & Events blew my expectations out of the water. My fiancé and I were big on trying to have taste testings as we had a micro wedding. Food and presentation was one of the most important things. Let me say....wow. Each dish and the presentation was amazing. I can say without a doubt that the size of your event will not make Dish Food & Events perform less than their best. There was SO much variety in the options and each had their own flavors and uniqueness. As much and my fiancé and I loved what Dish provided, so did our guests! And we had some picky eaters among us. There wasn't one complaint. Narrowing our decision down to Dish Food & Events was not hard at all and I truly believe their work and presentation and overall professionalism will not let anyone down. -

Morley Z. Sent on 05/08/2022Dish threw us an easy wedding with great food!
We had a fantastic experience with Dish, from the time we started talking to caterers to the wedding itself. We selected Dish because of their rave reviews, and because of their convenient day-of coordination service. Michael helped us with planning before the wedding and was an invaluable resource us. On the day, the food was amazing, and Jessica was a warm, reliable coordinator. They thought of all the small details we wouldn’t have considered. Our wedding day was so much easier because of all the hard work and experience Dish brought to us. Thank you so much! -

Amanda P. Sent on 04/24/2022Amazing Service with Dish!!!
My husband and I could not recommend Dish Food and Events enough. Not only was the food at our wedding absolutely OUTSTANDING, only confirmed by numerous guests asking us, "Who catered your wedding?!?", but the experience in working with Evalyn at Dish was actually so incredibly enjoyable, comfortable, and FUN! When choosing a caterer for our wedding, we were looking somewhat blindly and the thing that attracted us to Dish immediately was their customer service. From day one Evalyn got on the phone with us and created a relationship- that really mattered. Dish was incredibly responsive and helpful every step of the process from choosing main courses, to tweaking our cocktail hour choices numerous times (we nailed it !), to just chatting about general ideas, we could not be happier with the outcome. The coolest thing was that Evalyn became such an integral part of our wedding planning experience and always made things easier for us, which was always appreciated. She was out go-to the whole time. The work and professionalism of the whole team on our wedding day was also outstanding- they kept the food comin' all night long! I'm still dreaming of the waffle cones and chicken, braised short rib, and of course all the delicious dessert pass arounds!! Could not thank Dish enough for their excellent service. -

Dish catered our wedding at The Dumbo Loft and from day one to the final day of reflection after the wedding, we have nothing but positive things to say about the experience. We worked directly with Michael Guadagno and he was absolutely amazing through the entire process. He was always responsive and provided great recommendations/suggestions throughout to make sure our day went smoothly. Michael made everything from choosing our table settings, our final tasting, and of course, our wedding feel personal and special. The unanimous consensus from everyone (including us) was that the food was phenomenal. From the food, the service, and attentiveness from the entire staff, everything was top notch. I would not hesitate to recommend Dish to anyone. -

Anna E. Sent on 01/24/2022Professional, Understanding, Delicious!
Once I got to speak with Michael Guadagno for the first time on the phone, it was done. After researching and also speaking with many (and I mean MANY) catering companies, it was so refreshing to speak with someone who actually seemed to care about us as a couple, wanting to understand our story, more than "what's your budget, how many people, plated or buffet, etc." Michael asked questions and took the time to connect with us, and trust me, it's SO important to love the people that you'll be working with - Dish remained so accessible, accommodating, and professional from start to finish. Michael guided us with honest and helpful recommendations and advice. He was never pushy, genuinely cared about our concerns and questions, and allowed us to share with him our vision and he helped to execute everything on the day of flawlessly for all of our guests. And the food!!! We had SO many people come up to us on the day of our wedding raving about the food. And you know how they say on the day of the wedding, you're so busy you don't even remember what you ate or drank? Well, we remember the food and what we ate, because we ate everything, and we enjoyed everything on our plate thoroughly! Our wedding was at 501 Union in December of 2021. It was the best day of our lives, and we could not have done it without Dish Food & Events team's help. You will NOT have any regrets in choosing Dish for your event. We want to thank Michael, Ryan, and the rest of his team for helping us achieve our dream wedding. Miss you guys!
