If you're looking for a private/personal chef, Ruben is your man!!…read more Let me start by saying this was our first time hiring a personal chef and we were very lucky to have found Ruben for our first experience. From the start, Ruben was incredibly professional, yet charming and personable. A rare combination. He was quick to respond and super helpful throughout the entire booking process. Once everything was booked, Ruben kept in contact up until the event and assured us that everything would be taken care of. This was for my birthday dinner and wanted a special evening for my entire family (there were 9 of us). Ruben knocked it out of the park. On the day of the event, he was on time to prep the food and get everything situated. Dinner was to start at 6:30pm and we were right on time. He planned everything out perfectly from the first to last course! I chose the 5 course meal option and started with two appetizers, then two entrees and one dessert. The food was all perfectly cooked and left us wanting more! Especially that banana soufflé with butter pecan ice cream on the side! Once dinner was over, Ruben was right on top of the cleaning up process and allowed us to relax with our full bellies (it's a good amount of food, so be prepared to eat!) Overall the experience was more than I could have asked for and will definitely be referring and using Ruben for future dinner parties! Thank you Ruben!

I can not say enough about Chef Sean and Boland's Caterers! I contacted multiple vendors to cater…read moremy 40th birthday party, and I either received lackluster communication or no response at all! Sean was very responsive and informative; he explained the various options and packages. I chose to do passes apps all evening, which was perfect for the flow of the party. The package I chose came with two large app boards for the guests to pick from in addition to the passed apps. The menu choices were unbelievable; Sean put some fun and unique twists on the menu that puts him above the rest. All of the food was excellent, his server Lee was professional and also friendly so she fit in with the guests, and I felt that the price was not only fair, but really a bargain considering that Sean thought of every detail. I can't wait to have an excuse to work with Boland's Caterers again!

We had a group of people that liked different foods and he made some items that weren't on his regular menu. The appetizers he prepared were amazing! Everything was so fresh, unique and delicious. Mike started us with complimentary bread that came with truffle butter and truffle balsamic oil. The dipping sauces were sooo good. I personally would have preferred a bread crispy crust type of a bread for the dipping. Then we had scallops with tomato pesto sauce that were absolute perfection. I never really loved scallops until I tried Mike's scallops! They melted in your mouth. We also had the shrimp cups in a phyllo cup with guacamole! It is such a perfect summer appetizer. Absolutely delicious! We also had steak bites that were covered in a chimichurri. I wish the sauce was on the side. It was a lil bit spicy for some. Then we had our main entree which was flank steak with truffled mashed potatoes and asparagus. It was so good but everyone wished that the portion of the steak was bigger and that it would have came out hot. We had the appetizers brought out before everyone got to our house so then we waited to eat those until everyone got there. By the time everyone settled and was ready to eat, the appetizers were cold and the entree was ready . It would have been perfect if the timing of the food was different and the steak portion was bigger and hot. Nonetheless, it was still an amazing experience and I highly recommend Mike for anyone looking for a private chef for their house party!

I'll start off this way, I'm probably the only person whose favorite meal this week in 90° July…read moreweather included half a quart of warm, Smoky Red Pepper Soup with Basil Croutons ($10). I'll admit, a small part of the reason is because I keep my apartment very cold and really love soups. The primary reason though is that I found an executive chef who is a culinary genius that will cater and deliver phenomenal gourmet food directly to my door at very reasonable prices. This was one of the best original soups that I've tasted in a very long while. A great thick, creamy texture, good heat (without being too spicy), and you could taste the flavor of the ingredients, not just get overwhelmed by the red pepper. The taste and texture worked in perfect concert together, just like the cream and the red pepper. I've been paying ten bucks a quart for deli-quality soups during this quarantine. This was certainly in a much different class of quality, for the same exact price. Once people catch on to this amazing value, I'll likely end up paying far more for the same caliber of cuisine. However, supporting a well-deserving and hardworking small business with an honest and positive is more important to me than saving a little money. By the way, in addition to his well-honed, epicurean chops, Chef Sebastian is also a real sweetheart of a guy. I know a lot of great chefs and they're not all...oh, what's a good euphemism to use here? As good at dealing with people as they are with knives. Well, Chef Sebastian is wonderful with both. A true professional and a good person. Alright, now let me review some more of his food. In the late 1990s, I lived in New Orleans. So, I definitely know a thing or two about great-tasting cornbread. Chef Sebastian makes excellent cornbread. Not too crumbly, but also not sticky. There's nice pieces of whole corn and little pieces of jalapenos inside. Remember, I'm not a big fan of spicy, but this cornbread was perfect. Not too spicy and it was pre-cut into small squares for me and filled an entire sizeable container. I've eaten a few pieces with 4 meals already and I still have leftovers. His portions are immense. That goes double for the Slow Smoked Beer Marinated Local Shortrib ($27 with corn and cornbread). I've never been given that much shortrib in a single portion intended for one person. I LOVE his homemade BBQ sauce so much that I used it abundantly, put the shortribs in potato roll buns and served them up similar to pulled pork sandwiches, only these were far better because they were beer marinated shortribs. There was enough for 4.5 overstuffed sandwiches. My executive chef friend ate one, along with a piece of cornbread, and was extremely impressed with both as well. The Smoked Whole Trout ($14) was actually a bit overwhelming. Even with my big appetite, I certainly couldn't finish it. It's an entire large cooked trout. For $14 and hand delivered to your door by the chef himself? Where else will you get that type of value? Nowhere! Certainly not near Port Washington, where I live. I ate half of the fish the first day that the food arrived because obviously it's seafood. Although, I did decide to sneak Chef S's New Jersey grilled corn on the cob into this meal, even though it really came to compliment another dish. I didn't want to wait though. The fish was cooked nicely and traveled very well. A nice thickness, easy to cut the meat away, and just a nice smokey flavor throughout. However, I avoided the recommended horseradish sauce that came with it because I was in the mood for more of a fish flavor. I wasn't disappointed. The corn was tasty too. The 24 Hour Slow Smoked BBQ Pork Shoulder ($21 with corn and cornbread) was another massive creation. Once again, I had leftovers. You can taste the time it took to cook this. Completely fall off-the-bone type of dish and so savory. Extremely tender and also beautifully complimented by Chef's homeade BBQ sauce. Honestly, that stuff could go with anything. It's delicious. Local Jersey Peach Crisp with Homemade Whipped Cream ($7). My favorite dessert from anywhere this month. It's a giant piece made for 2 people, as long as one of them isn't me. LOL. I devoured about 3/4 of it because it was so incredible. Thin fresh peach slices with a deliciously sugary crust. This dessert could start an addiction. Just before writing this paragraph I polished off the remaining 1/4 piece left in my fridge. By the way, his food and containers keep very well. The food is delicious, but the portions are huge! Pickle Spears ($8). These are smaller sized pickle spears. However, there's enough of them to fill the jar and they're obviously pickled that way to provide much more surface area and access to the flavors of Chef's special blend of peppers and seasonings. They're very good. If you like pickles, you'll totally like these. Lots of flavors: garlic, peppers, mustard seeds, and some others. Be careful though, these bite back. Everything is PERFECT!
