Chef Lauren worked with us to personalize the menu for my partner's milestone birthday celebration and provided a full service dinner for 40 guests in our apartment with compelling warmth, confidence, and the utmost professionalism. The food was mouthwatering from the first tantalizing passed hors d'oeuvres all the way to the desserts which, by the way, included triple chocolate brownies with raspberries on the side. Everything was perfectly flavored; clearly prepared with great care and the finest ingredients; and presented beautifully. We are over the moon and our guests haven't stopped talking about the flavorful food and wonderful service. On top of that, our kitchen was left sparkling clean and there was an awesome stash of irresistible leftovers waiting for us in the fridge to help keep the memory of an already unforgettable and delicious evening alive for just a little while longer. Professional, on time, everything was as promised and beyond.

Seamlessly integrating a family-style serving at our request, custom cocktails and non-traditional desserts - Marcey helped us shape our dinner into something people talked about the morning after. With a deep bench of menu options, we appreciated Marcey talking us through how dishes could work together or be approached differently. Having bases in NYC and Hudson Valley meant that Marcey could easily attend in-person meetings at the venue or with our planner - a huge plus for anyone looking to get married upstate. The moment we knew our guests would be in for a treat was right after our ceremony. Before cocktails started, and almost immediately, Marcey's team greeted us with both of our custom cocktails and a full plate of all the appetizers being passed to our guests. That special gesture set the tone for our evening and we felt reassured that our guests would enjoy the thoughtful menu Marcey helped us put together. The five-star quality of food and service paired with an amazing, fun-to-work-with team makes Marcey Brownstein Catering & Events the obvious choice.

Everything we asked for was executed perfectly--and honestly, it went above and beyond what we expected. Throughout the night, guests kept coming up to us saying how amazing the food was. Many people mentioned it without us even asking, which is how we knew they truly meant it. Olga was incredible to work with. Our wedding happened during the coldest weekend in NYC, and she had already thought through a plan to keep the food warm and everything running smoothly. She even surprised us by serving guests hot toddies while they waited to enter the ceremony, which was such a thoughtful and memorable touch. From start to finish, the entire process was seamless. The food, the staff, the organization--everything was top-notch. Olga made sure she connected with every vendor so everyone was aligned and nothing slipped through the cracks. Anytime I reached out just to double-check a detail, she was already five steps ahead and made me feel like we were in GREAT hands. I've been to a lot of weddings, and I can confidently say this was the best wedding food I've ever had--and our guests agreed. If you want an amazing experience and food that people will be talking about long after your event, Marcy Brownstein and Olga are the team to trust. I promise!

I found Meiganne Serrano Catering by reading the reviews here on Yelp. I figured why not?…read more Everything said on yelp was positive and good. Better then good. Delicious food. Excellent service. I kept waiting for something to go wrong. This was too good to be true. Nothing went wrong. Everything went, well perfect. From initially meeting with Meiganne and planning, all the way from set up to take down, not one complaint. I am sorry I did not take pictures to share with you. But please try this caterer. You won't be sorry. Our next party, I won't have to look for a caterer again. She, and her crew (which were professional and very friendly) will from now on be our go to caterer. Awesome.

Meiganne worked with us to create a menu that incorporated the usual (ie bagels, lox) but also something different (ie farro salad, trout salad). The result was fantastic. All the guests loved the food. Even the salad dressing was extra delicious. We were also very pleased that everything was organic, fresh, and locally sourced when possible. Meiganne herself was very calm, responsive, and professional - a real pleasure to work with. She handled our request for recyclable/reusable containers and bottles with aplomb. The serving staff she hired were professional and efficient. Overall a really great experience and we will definitely use her again. Highly recommend!!

One of my favorite meals from Chef VanKline was her culinary presentation for my 50th birthday celebration with my entire family in New York City. The magic she created for the entire weekend was unmatched. My family was so impressed that many of them have hired her themselves. Since then. Her food is equally as beautiful as it is tasty. There's such a wide variety of flavors in each dish. She prepares. To have the gift of watching her cook in front of us was a big treat. Her customized menus always hit the mark. She's great at taking your desires, your culinary preferences, and the mood and theme of your event to create an out-of-this-world experience for your five senses! I can't wait to have another event for her to wow us again.

Chef Mellanee Harvin, and her Team, are the epitome of excellence. I was scouting a caterer for my…read morewedding, and was referred to Chef Mellanee by my Best Friend, who had been following The Fork Goes on the Left's Instagram page. Chef Mellanee's page, filled with tantalizing spreads, set in entrancing presentation, made a foodie like myself, instantly interested. Upon speaking with Chef Mellanee, I was immediately taken by her warmth, easy-going nature, patience (because, I asked SO many questions, on multiple occasions), and polished professionalism. Though I had nothing solidified, in terms of a venue, or even a wedding planner, Chef Mellanee offered me much guidance, and recommended a venue, which eventually led me to connect with my future Wedding Planner! I was presented a set list with a plethora of hors d'oeuvres, Buffet and Dinner compilations, and a separate drink menu, should an open bar be desired. Though many fantastic options were listed for consideration, Chef Mellanee informed I could inquire about offerings not listed, also. On the day of the tasting, my then-fiance and I, had car trouble. After speaking with Chef Mellanee, she graciously offered to extend the appointment to a reasonable time. By a miracle of God, we made it to the tasting, with 20-mins to spare. Upon entering Chef Mellanee's presence, we were immediately put at ease. The highly stressful event we'd been through, began to melt off us. Music played, in the background that set a loving mood. My beloved and I, sat at a table set for us to dine like royalty. Each course was impeccable, and Chef Mellanee checked to ensure our thoughts about each dish, were of genuine satisfaction. After our meal, and offering our final decisions, Chef Mellanee brought out a card game for us to play! It was a sweet game, made to enhance connection between a couple. We loved it! On the day of the wedding, upon entering the venue, I was told by my wedding planner to check a bag that had been left in my changing room. There, I found a white box, embossed with The Fork Goes on the Left emblem. Inside sat a few wonderful items, and a thoughtful, sweet note, that I keep in mind each day. From the time of service to the end of the night, everyone raved about the food, and service, rendered by Chef Mellanee, and her A+ Team. The food was well seasoned, and delightfully satisfying, speaking to our guests' Caribbean background, and elevated tastes. Chef Mellanee's team were the epitome of polished professionalism, courtesy, and joy! What also caught my eye, was how well Chef Mellanee's Team had her back. Before my husband, and I, were to take a picture with Chef Mellanee, the same lady on her Team, stopped to fix Chef's collar, to ensure she looked her best - I LOVED that! It spoke to everything we saw that evening, that contributed in so many ways, to their supreme level of service. Great trust, comradery, and respect worked within their Team dynamic. If any Bride is considering catering services, please, look no further than The Fork Goes on the Left. The level of care, and pampered service you, and your guests, will experience, will undoubtedly make your event, a day or night, to remember. As I said at the beginning of my review, Chef Mellanee and her Team, are excellence, personified, and, even more than that, they are genuine people, who care about each other, and their client. For an elevated, white-glove experience, look no further, and book, The Fork Goes on the Left.
