We used Custodi Caterers for our wedding in October. We had about 200+ guests and everyone raved about the food! We're so happy to have found Custodi. The staff is so friendly, caring and on their A game! It was also a pleasure working with Chris since he was professional and had a lot of great advice in terms of menu items and other details.

We had Custodi cater our son's Communion and it was fantastic. We went with brunch and not only did the menu hit on everything we needed (and the owner Chris worked with us to customize and build in a few extras we wanted) but more importantly, the food was delicious! Our family couldn't stop commenting on how good everything was. Working with Chris was a breeze. He was incredibly helpful, on time, and handled all the set up. It was exactly what we needed. Highly recommend and will absolutely be using them again!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Chris and his team catered my sons’ birthday party and did a FANTASTIC job. Everyone raved about the food, and I got several messages about the food even weeks after the party! Chris is the upmost professional - he helped me tailor my menu, made great suggestions, and was so responsive and easy to work with throughout. Janka, who worked the party, is so sweet and went above and beyond to make my guests feel welcome and comfortable. She took on responsibilities way beyond what I asked or expected her to do, allowing me to relax and truly enjoy the party. I highly recommend Custodi - honestly you won’t regret it. I’m looking for an excuse to throw another party so we can use them again :)

Custodi Catering catered my wedding for 170 people. Working with Chris was easy throughout the entire process. Prices were really affordable & the food was excellent. Guests raved about the eggplant rollatini, salmon, and shrimp. They were professional throughout the planning & the event. We did the alcohol ourselves (we should’ve used Custodi!) & we accidentally messed up the order. One of Custodi’s lead bartenders, Chelsea, noticed right away and coordinated a new delivery. All during cocktail hour! She saved the day. Would highly recommend them for catering large or small events.

We could not recommend Custodi enough! Chris and Lexx were excellent to work with. Always responsive and accessible. They enabled us to enjoy our wedding since we knew they had everything handled. The food was absolutely delicious and received rave reviews from our guests. Chris compiled an excellent staff for the event that was professional and experienced. Chris made the preparation very easy for us and was always willing to work with us to give us a tailored experience. Custodi offers the quality of a large catering company but the personal touch and personal service of a local small business.

Custodi Caterers catered our wedding this June. We did cold appetizers for cocktail hour and a buffet style dinner. Chris made planning our catering a breeze, he was friendly and easy to talk to on the phone, and flexible to accommodate our needs and the dietary restrictions of our guests. We received many compliments on the food, everything was hot, delicious, and well presented. The staff that served our event were pleasant, professional, and went above and beyond to take care of things on our special day! Every step of the way, I could not have asked for a better experience. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Custodi Caterers to anyone who is looking for event catering!

Words cannot describe how truly impressed I am with Custodi Caterers. We hosted a party of 50 people at our home last night. The food was absolutely amazing! We received compliments from the guests all evening. The absolute star of the party was our server Marybeth-set up, serving, and clean up. She took such awesome care of all 50 of us! It was amazing to wake up to a clean kitchen and delicious leftovers in the refrigerator. I would highly recommend Custodi Caterers-Chris and Marybeth! They’ll make your party a huge success 💗

I’m so glad we worked with Custodi for our wedding! First of all, the food was delicious and we got tons of compliments on it. Chris was very accommodating when putting together our menu and took into account all of our preferences and guests dietary restrictions. On top of this, he was a great resource for planning as well! He was always available to answer questions and offer advice. The catering staff were all wonderful and kind and helped make our day go smoothly. I cannot recommend them highly enough!

I can't convey how amazing, professional and talented the Custodi Caterers crew is. We recently hired them for our large wedding reception and the entire planning process was delightful, stress-free and extremely professional from start to finish. Chris and his staff were a dream to work with, the food was incredible, the staff was efficient, friendly, knowledgeable and they left everything spotless. Everyone had a wonderful time and they truly made this the party of our dreams!

We hired Custodi to cater our wedding and we couldn't be happier with the experience. We had them provide a buffer appetizer/cocktail hour, as well as coffee and tea service during dessert. We live in Oregon and got married in New Jersey, but Chris made the long distance communication and logistics a breeze. Day of, he sent a great team, and they were able to navigate the day smoothly, and make it ever the more easier for my husband and I to just enjoy our day and not be asked a thousand questions. Everything was delicious, and I especially loved the stuffed mushrooms! Thank you again for making our day great!

I had Custodi Caterers provide the food for my daughter's 8th grade graduation party. The appetizers, the entrees, as well as the desserts were amazing. All of the guests, including myself, were delighted by the delicious dishes. I would highly recommend Custodi Caterers for any event you may be celebrating. Top Rated establishment!

Custodi Caterers helped us out with some last-minute catering for our housewarming party. The food was ample and delicious! We had so many compliments from our guests. Chris was very responsive and flexible with our menu requirements. Mary Beth was honestly the best server - so attentive, went above and beyond, and stayed late to help clear up even though she didn't have to. This company is fantastic; we would use again in a heartbeat. Strongly recommend.

Choosing Custodi Caterers as our wedding caterer was a fantastic decision! Chris and Kristina were incredibly helpful leading up to the event, patiently answering all our questions and ensuring everything was planned perfectly. On the day of the wedding, the staff was exceptionally professional and kind, going above and beyond to ensure not only that our guests were well taken care of but that the bride and groom were able to enjoy the delicious dinner too. The food itself was simply amazing, and we received countless compliments from our guests about how delicious everything was. Highly recommend this caterer to anyone looking for both exceptional food and outstanding service!

I utilized Custodi Caterer many times. Political, charitable & birthday celebrations up to 250 people under a tent on my property. Sadly, I lost touch (COVID) was caring for my beloved mother who passed away one year ago age 94. She loved Custodi. She was Sicilian American & loved the food. I had a special birthday party 1/11/2025 & invited my dearest friends. A priest from Holy Face blessed the food. It was a celebration of the best food in the world! Everyone was so happy. Mr. Chris Lucas remembered me from past events I hosted. It was a magical day. Guests didn’t want to go home. They raved about the food. We also had a beautiful birthday cake. Everyone brought food home with them & told me they would use this Caterer in the future. Food is superb, service outstanding professionalism. It was a special day for me to celebrate my birthday with such dear friends. What’s better than great food, friendship, kindness & to surrounded by love after a dark difficult time for me ! I highly re

Chris and his team catered our wedding this past weekend and I cannot say enough good things about the whole experience. From our first consultation I knew Chris was going to deliver a beautiful day for us. Our menu reflected our favorites and every dish was executed perfectly. It is relatively unheard of to cook salmon for 120 guests and have it stay delicious and tender, so much so that folks were raving about it 3 days after. Cocktail hour was exceptional too, amazing home made Mac and cheese bites, a great antipasto spread, and pulled pork sliders that were out of this world (just to name a few).But above all else, hiring Custodi means you are getting bar none the absolute best serving staff possible. Lubi and her team are some of the most thoughtful, kind, and welcoming folks in the business. They took special care of my dad who is physically disabled, made sure all of our guests had what they needed, and checked in with guests who had various allergies to ensure they were able to

Chris was incredibly helpful leading up to the wedding, answering any and all questions we had, and stayed in touch throughout the whole process. On the day of the wedding, the staff went above and beyond for us, they were so professional and generous. They made our day so easy and we were able to enjoy it without any worries because of them.

Custodi Caterers exceeded all our expectations! From the very first bite, it was clear that every dish was crafted with care, passion, and incredible attention to flavor. The food was absolutely delicious — fresh ingredients, perfectly seasoned.If you're looking for catering that delivers unforgettable taste and top-notch service, look no further than Custodi Catering. Highly recommended!

Custodi Caterers now offers family meals delivered during covid 19 crisis. This is so much better than other food delivery programs that send you food to prep or boil etc. Chris was a pleasure to speak to, the ordering process was fast and easy and the food arrived on time as promised. Very good quality overall and the value is great considering what you get (we ordered the Texas brisket with mash). Will try more family meals and consider for future catering needs.PositiveQuality, Professionalism, Value

We used Custodi caterers yesterday, August 9, 2025 for a party. We had heard from others and our venue how great their food and staff were. They definitely went above and beyond our expectations. The food was amazing. The staff Armando, Marybeth, Frankie were so attentive and helpful, it was truly a great experience. Would highly recommend for anybody to use. I would give the staff and food 6 stars.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
