    Fantastic Caterer!

    I cannot praise Neuman's Kitchen highly enough for the fantastic work they conducted in catering my husband's and my wedding last weekend! From start to finish, their responsivity was timely, professional, and detailed. Most importantly, their food was INCREDIBLE! Every bite of food that they served at our wedding was just as delicious as what we tried at our tasting, and many of our guests commented that our food was the best they had ever tasted at a wedding.

    During our wedding reception, the entire NK team provided fantastic service with impeccable plating and timing. Richard, the captain, went above and beyond to ensure that I had water and whatever else I needed throughout the night. Their team also ensured that my husband and I were able to eat throughout the night, which was very helpful. I could list every item that was served at our wedding and comment on how fantastic it was, but I truly believe that everything that NK makes and serves is wonderful! One final bite that nearly everyone commented on, however, were the mini vanilla milkshakes with chocolate chip cookie toppers - these were amazing!! Such a fun way to end the night.

    All in all, I cannot compliment Neuman's enough on their well-orchestrated and executed work throughout our wedding night, but also leading up to our event. We got married at an unorthodox venue, so their flawless service was even more commendable! We are so lucky to have been able to work with NK for our wedding!!

    Neuman's Kitchen's reply:

    Thank you Nicole for taking the time to let us know how the team did - and that we were able to help add magic to your special day. We were delighted you invited us to cater your wedding.

    Here's you both much happiness for the future!

    Thank you Neuman’s Kitchen!

    We worked with Neuman’s Kitchen in Philadelphia for our wedding and everything from start to finish was amazing. Our guests are still raving about the food and the wonderful staff. We used Neuman’s in the past for another family event so when picking a caterer for our wedding we knew we had to go with them again. Their quality and service is always outstanding!

    Neuman's Kitchen's reply:

    Thank you for such a lovely review Marley! We were delighted to be part of your special day. Here's wishing much joy and happiness.

    Delicious and Attentive

    Everyone loved the food at the wedding! We chose stations: 2nd ave, Taqueria, and Vegan. The vegan station had a cheese raclette that was amazing and you couldn't tell it wasn't cheese. All the food was delicious. Other favorites were the ham and cheese on pretzel bun and tacos. The passed hors d'ouvres were like small delicate mini-meals in a bite. They were so delicious as well. Our contact, Diane, was extremely attentive and helpful. We enjoyed our tasting at their kitchen, which was like an event in itself in their well appointed dining room. The day-of staff were friendly and attentive as well. People say the bride an groom don't get to eat, but they made sure that we had one of everything at our plates and didn't take them away. All special requests from our guests were handled in a friendly and helpful way.

    Hired Neuman's to cater a corporate open house... and they were awesome. From the attention when we were scheduling to the final moment when they left my office spotless after three hours of bar service and passed appetizers! I can't say enough. These people made me look good! You can't do any better then Neuman's Kitchen. Robert, Kelly, Anne Marie, Paul and everyone else... we hope to see you again soon! I can only imagine how fantastic they would be for a wedding!

    Amanda Weidel and the Neuman’s Kitchen staff went ABOVE and BEYOND catering our wedding and we want to sing it from every rooftop in New York City. This company is an absolute pleasure to work with and we would hire them again and again! Amanda was down to earth, honest, efficient and incredibly thoughtful with her many suggestions regarding food, various party options, time frames, decor, rentals, costs, etc. Her professionalism and dedication to every last detail gave me a great deal of confidence that Neuman’s would get the job done right. I felt like I didn’t have to worry about anything and this part of the planning process was actually fun and personalized! Additionally, Amanda was very helpful with vendor and design/ aesthetic suggestions for the venue.

    The overall production was, well seamless. The food and the aesthetic that Amanda and her team produced was nothing short of fantastic. All of our guests continued to comment on not only the outstanding quality of the food, but the amazing quality of the production. Bartender, servers, production and kitchen chefs were all top notch. Our wedding cake, which Neuman’s made in house, was absolutely delicious as were the desserts! There were so many little details Amanda and her crew took care of for us over the course of the night, I lost count.

    At the end of the evening, my wife and I were amazed at how quickly the team cleaned up the space. Every last item was put away and accounted for.

    It makes a huge difference when you are confident in the vendors you hire for your wedding. Things are already stressful enough without having to worry about whether or not your caterer will be good. Hire Neuman’s Kitchen. You won’t regret it.

    To the the entire crew from Neuman’s Kitchen - a sincere and heartfelt THANK YOU for making our wedding celebration not only effortless, but also amazing. We will be talking about this for many, many years to come.

    Neuman's Kitchen did a wonderful job catering our wedding. The food was delicious and guests raved about our black and white cookie favors. Diane was a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend using them to cater your wedding and/or special event.

    Jason's Catering did a wonderful job at my wedding at the Nixon Library. The food and service was amazing. The chicken and steak was cooked perfect. The guests loved the food and appetizers. My families and friends still can't stop raving about the food after the wedding. I'm so happy that we picked them!!

    Jason's Catering is spectacular. We and our guests loved the food. They are flexible, as we needed a lot of vegetarian and some gluten free, putting up signs and helping our guests. The dishes are different and memorable.

    The food tasting was amazing and even though we brought a few family members (more than they expected), they were gracious and welcoming and helpful. We felt very special.

    I highly recommend Jason's.

    YUMTASTIC! From our initial meeting with Diane Weiss to our absolutely perfect wedding meals Jason's was amazing! The tasting alone made us want the wedding to be the next day! Our guests loved all of the choices and raved about the food.

    In smaller print they talk about their coffee service and pastries. They need to print this larger! The set up was incredible! They made us look like we spent way more than we did!

    I highly highly recommend them!

    I worked with Kathy Fallon for our cocktail hour/reception at Sunset Terrace at Chelsea Piers. Working with her was like working with a friend in the business. She gave me so many tips and pointers on how to negotiate items outside of our food!

    Our menu was TERRIFIC. Guests loved our mix of comfort, exotic and fun foods. People are still talking about the mashed potatoes!

    Jason's Catering provided us with wedding food that actually tasted amazing!!!! I have NEVER been to a wedding where the food actually tasted good. It is so mass produced its usually oversalted and overcooked. From the hor d'ouevres to the main course to the little small desserts, I couldn't say enough about them. I am very big on fresh, quality food and they really delivered I wanted to take it all home! I would recommend them to everyone. They were more than professional and really will work with you if you are a foodie and have a vision of your own. We altered many of the dishes to our taste and they gladly worked them out with no additional charge. Very professional and creative!!

    Overall the experience working with Neuman's was extremely frustrating, disappointing, and considering the premium they charge, incredibly not worth it. We originally had Amanda as our event manager (and perhaps if she had continued to be our event manager, we would have had a more positive experience) but 5 months before our wedding, she was let go. (Seemed they cleaned house with many of their staff) We were not informed and didn't find out until we called; no one called us back, had to call again to get a new event manager. Regardless, we stayed optimistic but kept being let down. I won't list all of our grievances but here are a few

    - Had an appointment to meet at rentals showroom. Gave us the wrong address, was unreachable until 20 mins after appt time and when we did finally meet up, response was "Oh - couldn't you have googled the address?". No apology
    - Miscalculated rentals and wasn't provided updated quote (which was $3k over original est.) until 3 days before wedding. Extra charges made sense, but complete lack of expectation-setting
    - Bait and switch with the entree. Our tasting menu included "hen of the woods" mushrooms (which we printed on our menus) but actual entree just came with crimini mushrooms
    - Was charged extra $350 fee because they ran out of Jameson during the event and had to purchase extra. However, this liquor was included in our open bar service as a per person price. There was never any mention of limits on this
    - Provided feedback post-event, no response. Just a one line email to confirm our credit card had been charged

    Overall, we felt like just another dollar sign to Neuman's. There was no interest in providing individualized service and while a lot of promises were made, through their actions, very little was delivered. If you want a catering company to just deliver food and some waitstaff, then Neuman's may be for you but that's a pretty hefty price tag if that's all you're getting.

    On December 15, 2016, one of Neuman's Kitchen's trucks was recklessly driving in lower Manhattan and struck me as I was crossing the street in a protected pedestrian crosswalk. Thank you to the eye-witness who snapped these photos as I was getting up off the street from being knocked down as the truck tried to speed away.

    I called immediately to report the incident to Neuman's Kitchen. Paul returned my call the following day and said he'd investigate. I have not received any follow up and my calls since have all gone unanswered.

    Anyone considering hiring this company should know how they skirt their responsibilities and liabilities.
