Blackstone Caterers

I was 100% amazed by Blackstone and Karen. We had a cocktail style reception, and served heavy apps. We had plenty of food, and people could not stop raving about how great it was. People are still calling us to talk about how great the food was. Everything came out hot and delicious (and they were cooking in a tent in december!!!). We had short plate entrees, and every single steak was cooked to perfection. I was completely amazed every time I tasted something. From the moment we met with them at the tasting, they were it for us. I had figured they would be far too pricey for us, but they actually were in line with other caterers and the quality of food and service far exceeded other caterers. Every concern I had, Karen addressed and handled quickly and efficiently. We did all of our rentals through them, which was great because we had one less vendor to handle. Karen handled the timeline for the day, and really acted like a day of coordinator, which was soooo helpful and amazing. I would use Blackstone again and again, and would recommend them to anyone who wants the highest quality food at their event.

Blackstone, and in particular Karen, was absolutely amazing! I can't begin to say enough about how fantastic everything was. I knew the food would be excellent & it was. But, it was all the intangibles in the wedding planning process that really made me so thankful we had chosen Blackstone.

Fabulous food! I highly recommend the raw bar at your cocktail hour! I've been to a lot of fancy weddings, with mediocre food. Blackstone does a great job and the food is great! My priorities in planning my wedding were to have great food, great music and a fabulous photographer. The food at our wedding was wonderful and beautifully presented. Most of our guests are NYC foodies. They all approved! It was a bit disappointing because the day of coordinator we had been working with got sick and was not able to be there on the day of our wedding. But she must have taken very good notes, because the woman who filled in did an excellent job. I suggest you go in for a tasting. We were able to meet the chef and choose a menu we loved!

all I can say is WOW!! My husband and I could not have been happier than we were with the food at our wedding! Everything was AWESOME...and we are still getting compliments on it! People loved the food! Not only was the food great, but they were wonderful to work with. We checked out a few caterers in the area, and Blackstone was the only one willing to really work with us to give us exactly what we wanted within our budget. They were so pleasant and helpful, responded immediately to any emails/phone calls, and really worked with us to make our day exactly what we wanted. They even reached out to our tent company, linens company, and wedding planner to make sure everyone was on the same page which saved me a lot of work. Our wedding was in my parents backyard, so I anticipated the catering being a bit difficult (since they worked out of a makeshift kitchen) and they pulled it off without a problem! I can 100% guarantee satisfaction if you use them...they are the best!

The minute we met Karen and sampled the food for our tasting we knew that Blackstone Caterers was going to be a hit at our wedding! Karen made menu suggestions that were all outstanding, and reflective of our favorite things. She was flexible and accommodating in every way possible. The food was so delicious and everyone is still raving about it! Not only did it taste amazing but the presentation was beautiful and you can tell everything was put together with care. The dessert stations and bars looked great as well. They even attempted to make up a signature drink for me based on a few ingredients I asked them to try together, and it came out perfectly delicious! Karen and the staff at Blackstone executed an amazing event with what seemed liked such ease, the service was right on point! There was always someone right there asking what we needed, not only for the bride and groom, but this was something I heard from guest as well. The moment we sat down they brought my husband and I a platter of every hors’dureves that were passed to guest including items from the raw bar to be sure we had everything. This included a variety of desserts later as well even though we had a station for this. Throughout the entire process Karen was easy to work with, and extremely helpful when I had to get some of my items to my reception (chargers, menus, napkins, and dinner wine, etc..). Karen and the rest of the staff at Blackstone caterers are a group of professionals that are thoughtful, caring, and energetic. Even the chef came out during our tasting to explain every dish and to tell us where the food came from. The great thing about Blackstone is that everything comes from local farms and waters, which ensures the freshest and best taste! I would Highly Recommend Blackstone Catering for your wedding, or next big event! I certainly will use them again!

Many, Many guests said that it was THE BEST wedding food they have ever had. So many options to choose from, they worked totally within out budget, and met with us a couple of times when need be. Danielle was our point person and she was very pleasant and prompt. No extra fee to cut cake or any inflated catering costs along those lines - can not say enough great things!

I cannot say enough about Blackstone and Karen Conley . They were amazing. 5 Star all the way! The food and service was incredible. It was a chilly night so Karen had a few surprises that blew us away. They surprised us by serving hot apple cider while they were waiting for the ceremony and she had Pashmina’s for all the ladies who were cold. There was always a staff member nearby bring us Hors d'oeuvres while we were taking pictures and even making sure I had a shawl or something to warm me up. The food was tremendous! They even packed up all the extras left over from the table and managed to locate the toasting glasses which had been left who knows where. They took amazing care us all night. Cannot say enough about them!!

Blackstone Caterers is an amazing company. The food was unforgettable, the service was professional and accommidating, they let you create your own menu,and the price was right. Mary Beth was so helpful in answering all our questions and working with our budget.

We only tasted food from one caterer which was Blackstone and we were blown away. I can still remember everything about the meal. Everything was absolutely incredible. I highly recommend Blackstone especially for any green brides and grooms. All of their food is local which is great for the economy and environment. I also like the menu is seasonal to higlight the freshest ingredients. Unfortunately we had to cancel our big wedding and elope but there was never any other choice for us. I know our guests would have raved!!!

Great food, great service! Very impressed by how wonderful our food was on our wedding day.

Excellent! Nothing bad to say about the caterer. Every detail was attended to and they presented excellent food and service at our wedding. People were extremely nice to deal with. Also a great value for your money!

SUPER attentive, EXCELLENT food, impressive overall. What I loved best was that the bride and groom recieved one on one service - we could not have been happier. We felt EXTREMELY well taken care of!

We were amazed at the quality of service from the serving staff at our wedding...they tracked us down all over the grounds where we were taking photos to make sure our wedding party didn't miss any appetizers! They were so friendly and advised us at every turn through the evening with details like when and where to cut our cake (adjusting to our guests every changing needs!) Our guests were raving about every dish...everything was simply delicious!

I can't say enough about Blackstone Caterers. My Newport RI wedding was amazing and I got so many compliments about the food. Blackstone was so helpful and so willing to do what it was that I wanted. On the wedding day they were so gracious and I recommend them, hands down!

Blackstone catered our wedding at Rosecliff and our brunch the following day. They did an absolutely amazing job. While Marybeth was our main point person (and absolutely an all star) every person we worked with was at the top of their game and professional. They were willing to work within our budget and their food is unbelievable. I highly recommend Blackstone to any Bride and Groom.

Danielle was our coordinator and was amazing. The service was flawless and the food was amazing. She was willing to work with us to make all our requests a reality within our budget. WOW. I didn't realize a caterer for an event with that many details could be executed flawlessly!

We had a wonderful experience with Blackstone. Our event manager, Danielle was fantastic. She listened to all of our ideas and incorporated them into the menu. She also responded to all of our questions (and there were many) quickly and thoroughly. She made the process very enjoyable. On top of that the food was absolutely beautiful and delicious. The waitstaff was so attentive and made everyone feel cared for. We recommend them without reservations.

Everyone loved the food! It was beautifully presented and tasted delicious. They are highly recommended!!!

Food was excellent and service was good. The buffet took a bit of time to be restocked. At times, the sales person was delayed in responding.

Blackstone was an excellent choice for us. They have many food options and the sales coordinator we worked with (Danielle) was excellent. They are very responsive and make sure everything is tailored to your needs. The only thing is, it's one of the most expensive caterers in the area so if you're looking to be thrifty, you may want to look elsewhere.
