Customer Reviews

A business doesn’t have 4.9 stars on Google for no reason! My event has yet to happen but so far I’ve felt valued as a customer and I’m so excited and grateful to have these people catering for me. There’s been nothing but care and interest in the details of my day. They went above and beyond to secure my business and keep it. They’ve been very flexible and professional and experts in their field. I’ll be back to update with photos! Tiffany Mac

Great communication, service and food. jasmine bermudez

Food is amazing and staff was wonderful. The twins had an amazing time for their 16th birthday party Lashondra Mikel

T&L catered our backyard wedding reception and they were FANTASTIC. We had a brunch buffet but they were still able to provide an hour of passed hors d'oeuvres for us, and they made everything feel elegant and move smoothly. Everything was absolutely delicious, and our guests raved about the food! The whole team day-of was spectacular and made sure that our guests had a great time and that my parents' kitchen and backyard were in beautiful shape at the end of the day. It was especially helpful that Tom contracted the tent vendor and the bartender as part of our total contract with T&L - having all three services under one umbrella made the management of the event so smooth. They also took all of my concerns about allergies and food intolerances seriously - we had guests coming with gluten intolerances, nut allergies, Passover restrictions, dairy sensitivities, you name it. Not only did Tom help us create a menu that made sure everyone could enjoy the brunch, he also made sure that everything was clearly labeled on the day. I cannot recommend T&L catering highly enough - they are a great local company, deliver amazing service, and provide simply spectacular catering. Thank you T&L! Marguerite Murad

I just had a party catered by T&L and they were extremely professional, provided great setup service and the food was stellar! Not only did they make my day easy, they made my guest very happy because everyone loved the food. Thank you T&L it was a hit!!! Linda Vaughn

T&L Catering went above and beyond for our event! The presentation of the dishes was not only visually stunning but also reflected the high-quality ingredients used. The attention to detail and professional service truly elevated the overall experience. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the delicious and diverse menu. Wil Belloso

June 2024 Graduation Party. There was plenty of food and all of our guests loved the BBQ buffet. The office staff was great and everything was delivered on schedule as promised. I definitely recommend and will use them again. Jim H

We had our wedding at the beautiful James Ward Mansion, and T&L Catering was terrific to work with from start to finish. The food tasting was great – making it hard to choose between all of the many delicious options! The food on our wedding day was fantastic, everything from vegetable spring rolls to bacon-wrapped scallops to Asian style beef! However, the real star of the show was our matri’d Jaci. She made sure everything went off without a hitch and truly went out of her way for all of us, making each of us (not just the bride and groom) feel special and important. She even helped bustle my gown! We feel so lucky to have had T&L Catering, especially Jaci, as part of our day. Marisa Pollack

T&L was a pleasure to work with. They were responsive, professional, and detail oriented. The food was delicious and the staff at the venue were incredibly helpful. We would definitely recommend using them. Wendy

We had a beautiful time. The service was great!! The food was really quiet delicious and the entire staff was delightful. Thank you elizabeth conde

There are not enough words to describe how wonderful an experience it was working with Tom to cater a Passover Seder for over 150 adults. This event required specific menu options and some logistical hurdles that Tom, Leo and the staff onsite handled beautifully. The food was delicious and the staff was attentive. People are still talking about how wonderful everything was. I couldn’t thank T&L enough for making the planning process so easy and a pleasure to work with. Thank you! Jennifer DePierro

T&L catered our wedding and we could not have asked for a better crew. Our guests raved about the food, which was incredible and so plentiful. A massive shout out to Jaci who ran the whole show like clockwork, took such great care of us and was just a joy to work with. We will be using these guys again without a doubt Darren Watson

I love T&L. I've booked them for many parties and they were always great! Kyle Little-Miller

T&L Catering did a beautiful job decorating for our family's event. The kielbasa and sauerkraut was incredible, and the carving station was delicious. Owners were easy to work with and very communicative. The servers that day were friendly and helpful. Brandi Kovac

T & L Catered an event for over 100 Autism Moms and they all said how much they loved the food! We had lots left over too, so there was more than enough to feed the crowd. Highly recommend and we will use them again at our next event. Robbie And Me

Our wedding was made truly incredible by T&L Catering. From the moment we booked with them, Tom and Pamela were incredibly helpful and attentive. They guided us through the menu selection process and ensured that every detail was taken care of. On the big day, the food surpassed all expectations. Many of our guests complimented the delicious dishes, which were expertly prepared by Chef Leon. Jaci, our onsite coordinator, went above and beyond to ensure that everything ran smoothly throughout the night. Her attention to detail and dedication to making sure we were taken care of did not go unnoticed.

On behalf of my team of 250+, we're so grateful for T&L! We hosted a company BBQ last month and T&L took care of us very well! There were a lot of moving parts that day but the one thing I didn't have to worry about were the food/drinks. Not only were they so attentive and communicative with me throughout the duration of our event. But the food was DELICIOUS! People were going back for seconds, me included! 😂 The ribs and mac and cheese were my fav but all of the food was good! Thank you T&L, we'll definitely be in contact again next year! 😊 Barry Holmes

We are so happy we went with T&L catering for my sisters bridal shower. The food and service was AMAZING. They have a large menu of selections to choose from which was nice. We received many compliments from our guests! Such a great team as well. Claudia Rusin

T&L is a family owned and run business and THE caterer to reach out to for any event! They recently catered my wedding, 6.2.24, at the James Ward Mansion and my guests could not stop talking about the amazing food! Tom and the team were very easy to communicate with. They made our options clear and were easy and flexible working with us regarding guest who had dietary restrictions, and adding on last minute extras. Jackie was our primary contact on the day of and she was simply amazing. She kindly made my husband and I plates and brought it to the bridal suite to make sure we got a few bites in before our first dance and all the commotion; and she consistently checked in on us to make sure we had everything we could need. I can not thank them enough for helping to make my dream wedding come true. I will be sure to us them in the future for all my events! Arielle Rottman

T&L provided such great experience on our wedding day. It was a pleasure working with them. The service exceptional, the communication amazing! It was so easy to communicate with them and they accommodated last minute requests. They went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was one of the best experience. Besides their professionalism and the great experience provided, their food was on of the best I’ve tasted. I would absolutely recommend T&L Mafharda

T&L was a perfect fit! All the staff was extremely helpful & accommodating! Georganne especially! She took care of me, the bride, all night. Even made a special run for more Coke Zero <3 Many kudos on the food from the guests! 1000% recommend! Olga Krowicka

We used T&L catering for our wedding at the James ward mansion. Tom, Pam and jackie are just amazing so accommodating they took the stress out of the typical catering experience. Our wedding guests were very pleased with the service and food. We also used ShopRite liquor store in Westfield recommended to us by Tom and they were great!! Thank you so much Shalan Joyce

This is our 4th time using T&L Catering at Monarch Hall and the service is always top notch! They are super reliable, communicate well, and are super attentive to all needs. susana bonilla

Great to work with. Very quick to respond and very friendly staff! Food was good and had a lot of it. All of our guests were complementing the food and asking who it came from. Highly recommend T&L for catering. Stephen Allen

A friend recommended T&L Catering, this friend has been using them for all her family events and had all great things to say about them. I decided to do a bit of digging since I needed a catering company to use for one of our biggest school fundraisers. After contacting several catering companies, T&L Catering was great from beginning till end. It was a breakfast full of am delights, all breakfast was amazing. Not only would we use them for our school events/fundraisers again but I personally would use them for my family and friends events. Highly recommend, very professional, on time for food delivery and communication with Tom was always on point. Thank you so much T&L Catering. Jelexsa DeJesus

I have used T&L for two of my family parties now and each time the food was excellent. They supply plenty of food and working with them has been easy. I highly recommend! Update 1/2024: we used the Riverview Banquet Hall for our son’s 1st birthday and it was a wonderful experience. Pam and the team were so accommodating with everything. We can’t say enough good things about T&L! Shannon Reis

We celebrated my daughter’s Quinceañera at The Grand Banquet two weeks ago. I can’t express how happy we were with their services. Everything was a breeze with them. I didn’t have to worry about anything during the party. Linda was so helpful with everything, specially since we had different color schemes for our tables. She made sure everything was as we envisioned. Stephanie worked our party, she is an absolute joy to work with and such a professional. I was at peace knowing she was making sure everything was to our liking and enjoyment. They exceeded my expectations and truly made the night unforgettable. The food is delicious, the venue is beautiful, the staff and cook all went above and beyond. They are very understating, and worked with us to meet our needs. I would recommend them 100% for any event. Thank you for everything! Astrid Zuniga

Tom and his team are amazing. Jaci our maitre'd went above and beyond to help us ay our wedding. We didn't hire a day of coordinator but our wedding went well. They also helped with setting up our diy decors. They brought us food and drinks while we were having our pictures taken after the ceremony. The food was amazing! Thanks so much. I'm so glad to be working with you. D Iman

We recently hosted my husband's 50th birthday party at James Ward Mansion in Westfield. We chose T&L for the catering. Tom was absolutely wonderful to work with. We wanted an elegant sit down dinner that was very detailed on how we wanted things to flow and look like and they delivered! Jaci was our Maitre d who was very lovely, informative and attended our guests needs and accommodated everyone. We cannot thank Jaci enough for making our event flawless and memorable. Lisa the bartender was great and all the staff who were there that night were all wonderful. Thank you Tom and the team for making my husband's milestone party memorable! If you ever want to host at James Ward Mansion or anywhere else in NJ T&L Catering is the place to go! Kind regards Mulki & Dan Mulki Osterberg

We recently had the pleasure of working with T&L Catering for our tented wedding reception on June 6th, 2024, and we couldn't be more delighted with the experience.

The team at T&L went above and beyond to ensure that our lunch reception was absolutely perfect. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the delicious food, which was beautifully presented and exceeded all expectations. The vino chicken was one of our favorites!

The staff went above and beyond to ensure every guest, especially this mom-to-be, felt incredibly special and well taken care of. From start to finish, they exceeded all expectations.

T&L Catering is an outstanding catering company to work with and made our wedding day incredible. We worked directly with both Tom and Pam throughout the planning process for our wedding, and they could not have been more helpful and accommodating when it came to making our day amazing. The amount of food/dining options they offer for a wedding reception is immense, and there are no wrong choices when it comes to your decision. Our guests raved about the selection and quality of the food — from cocktail hour to dinner to dessert, everything was outstanding. Everyone says that it’s so hard for the bride and groom to eat at their wedding reception, but our maitre d’ Georgeanne made sure that wasn’t the case, making sure that even though we were constantly running around talking to our guests, there was food ready for us and on our table at all times, she was absolutely tremendous. Overall, we can’t recommend T&L enough — their level of service from the planning process through the day of our event was unmatched, and the food was spectacular, they’re the best! Michael Yard

Not enough words can express how wonderful Tom and his team at T&L Catering are. I have used T&L at numerous events, from private parties to networking events. The staff is always courteous, professional, and a dream to work with and the food is INCREDIBLE! Every time I have used T&L for catering, the food gets rave reviews from everyone. The displays the team puts together are beautiful, the food is always fresh, and they go above and beyond when it comes to the setup and, most importantly, the cleanup of an event. One of my favorite parts about T&L is that they do events that range from the most intimate affairs to large, upscale weddings and banquets. Whether you are planning for indoors or outdoors, Tom and his staff are always prepared. I cannot wait to use them for the next event. Daniela Palme

I am currently at Taste of Linden and I had the absolute pleasure of trying T&L Catering’s pasta in cream sauce with sausage and mascarpone. This pasta is divine. The taste is well rounded, rich, and phenomenal to say the very least. Downright decadent. I’ve had seconds so far but I will definitely be going back for more..I can’t get enough!! Well done T&L Catering, best pasta I’ve tasted in a very long time. 10/10 recommend highly! Alana Villahermosa

Had a great experience at T&L for my daughter’s 1st birthday. The food was delicious and the staff was phenomenal. We rented the hall in Linden and had 90 people. Everything was great and I’d def recommend anyone who is looking for a great place with great food and great prices. Viviana Perperas
