Cannot go wrong with the weekly dinners (on Thursdays), but pre order in advance to both save on price and also guarantee your order... They frequently sell out.

Oh and during lent and occasionally in the summer, the fish fry's are great, too! Saturdays have pop up sandwich specials. Bread is fantastic, as well. All-in-all, an A+ operation

Sure, I thought about paying $12 for a sandwich but with Frese's fabulous dinners, the decision wasn't hard and I would gladly do it again. We always seem to end up being disappointed with other restaurants BLT solely because of the lack of the amount of bacon. Frese's had full bacon flavor with several pieces accompanied by the perfect amount of lettuce and tomato. We look forward to their continued treats!

I've lived in New York City for 11 years and have eaten at almost all the top restaurants, and I can easily say that Mara and her team's food stands out in my mind as one of the best. Not only that, but the portions were also more than generous, and the whole process of working with Simons from start to finish was seamless. I give two VERY big thumbs up, and if I could give 10 stars, 20 stars, I would. So so so happy with our experience, and the food was definitely one of the highlights of our weekend retreat. Thank you so much again!!!

He responds promptly to every message, goes above and beyond to be thoughtful and accommodating, and is generous in every possible way. And even if none of that were true (which it definitely is), we'd still hire him again in a heartbeat because the food is PHENOMENAL. We served Pulled Pork, Smoked Chicken, and Brisket, along with Mac & Cheese, Tuscan potatoes, and smoked corn on the cob. Dessert was peach cobbler and banana pudding. True comfort food as delicious as it sounds. He also made sure everyone felt included by offering gluten-free and vegan options. Everything was perfection. As if that weren't enough, he includes all the fixings...cornbread, pickled vegetables, tossed salad and several varieties of house-made sauces that take everything to the next level (even though the food is so good, it truly doesn't need it!). The presentation is like something straight out of Pinterest. A beautiful rustic-chic setup, complete with a menu board and thoughtful decor touches that made the food table a centerpiece of the event. If you want your event to be a guaranteed success; memorable, delicious, and stress-free, book Bernie's Blue Line Barbecue. You won't regret it.

I was so excited to work with Nicole's for our wedding day. My wife and I are having our wedding…read morecelebration on October 2nd 2021. We had Nicole's booked and secured since November 2020. I was told after providing a deposit that my event coordinator (Kate) would reach out to finalize plans early February. Mid February rolls around and I have not heard from Kate. I reached out via email only to find that Kate is no longer working with Nicole's. Our event was passed on to Margaret. No problem. Margaret and I arranged a call where I discussed our in laws are footing the bill and they LOVE food. So we wanted a lot and a large variety despite being a smaller wedding (50-75 people). Margaret spent the entire call talking me down and telling me I was ordering too much. She asked I look over the options again and downsize. I told her we would but we do still want a large variety. A day or two later I go to email Margaret our (still large but) downsized order...only to find an email from her waiting for me. Her email stated that Nicole's simply could not service us and it was a mistake for Kate to take us on originally. She went on to say that the only way it was feasible for them to serve our wedding is if we were willing to spend a minimum of $15,000 BEFORE TAXES AND FEES. So to recap we've had them booked since November. Between November and March they didn't think to tell us they couldn't serve us. And after talking me down Margaret comes back not 72 hours later to tell me we have to pay over $15 grand. BEFORE TAXES AND FEES. Margaret left us hanging and scrambling to find a caterer for one of the busiest wedding weekends of the year. And to add to the unprofessionalism after providing our home address for her to return our deposit via check...she sent it to the location of our wedding event instead. Do not work with these people and risk being put in the situation I'm in. They cannot be trusted to uphold their end of a bargain. Hell, they can't even be trusted to address an envelope.

Mike hit all my concerns with A+ responses. Not only were the meals great for the group of 40+, Mike was flexible with last minute changes, catering was delivered in a timely manner, and I could count on his professional customer service for the venue without me even attending. 5 Stars for Michael's Express Catering - my go-to caterer for service, creativity and quality in food items, and Mike's enthusiastic personality to work with.

We found Chef Deanna through Instagram and were intrigued. I sent her a quick note, and next thing…read moreyou know, we're on a phone call for over an hour that felt like 10 minutes. We asked Deanna to cater our 115 person, mountain top wedding with as much fire-prepared food as possible. Think Francis Mallmann (google him if you arent familiar). No running water. No electricity. She was game. She was more than game. She came ready to rumble and was cooking on the fire pit from morning until late night. Deanna is warm, talented, energetic, charming, and generous. She made amazing, locally sourced, fresh food our guests are still raving about. She has real relationships with farmers and producers in the area - her local connections are priceless. Her whole team never broke their professionalism and wowed us with their service and hospitality. She helped our moms serve apple pies instead of wedding cake. She sprinkled flowers all over the buffet tables. She shared with us all her beautiful old plates. She surprised us with a late night round of sloppy joes. She let us borrow all the props and baskets and water jugs for our whole wedding weekend, even for events that she wasn't specifically there for. I could go on and on. Book with Deanna, she is a true unicorn of the catering world.

We postponed two times, and Chef Deanna was incredibly accommodating throughout it all. In fact -- she supported our decision to postpone (even the second time!) when so many people questioned why we were doing it. Postponing twice was absolutely the right decision, and we had our dream wedding on 4/9/22 of this year. Chef Deanna worked with us to create a menu that was rustic and aligned with our tastes/personalities. We did a barbecue buffet for the main course -- with macaroni and cheese, multiple types of meat, cornbread, etc. -- and a more classic cocktail hour with charcuterie/cheese etc. Everything was delicious. My only regret is that I didn't go up for seconds! In ADDITION to that, Chef Deanna provided her gorgeous vintage plates that were a perfect fit with our venue. This really helped make our planning easier, and added to the beauty of the tables on the day. Everything went seamlessly -- We could not have been happier with Chef Deanna's catering!
