Awarded Best of Zola
Our wedding day was flawless and a top-notch night that we will cherish for the rest of our lives. Chef’s Culinary Journey was phenomenal. The food was INCREDIBLE, Michelin-star worthy, from cocktail to appetizers, to entrées, to the wedding cake and dessert. They take wedding catering to the next level and they’re not looking back. I was especially mesmerized with the fact that they were very accommodating to some of the unusual and specific food allergies some of our guests had. We had guests telling us how delicious the food was throughout the night. I love great food, and it was so gratifying for my husband and I to share good food (catered by Chef’s Culinary Journey) with our closest friends and family. They service was impeccable and the visual presentation was striking

Modern Fusion - Catering 

5.0

  • Serves Essex Fells, NJ

Awarded BEST Of Catering 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022 on ALL Major Platforms! Chef Angelo Napoli has been in the restaurant business his entire life. His passion and esteemed aspirations to become a chef grew stronger throughout the years while watching his father work in their family owned restaurant, Napoli Pizza. His love for delicious cuisine became an addiction. Competing throughout his early education in various culinary battles, Angelo knew he had a gift. He spent years mastering his craft, working sous chef and head chef positions at some of the Lehigh Valley's top restaurants!

I recently worked with Modern Fusion Catering for a Welcome Reception the night before my son's wedding. Although I was in Massachusetts and never met Angelo, the process of remotely planning an event for 80 people was made smooth and stress-free. Angelo's professionalism and expertise truly stood out. He was incredibly responsive, detail-oriented, and proactive in ensuring that every aspect was covered. From menu planning to execution, he provided peace of mind throughout the entire process. The event itself was a huge success, and the food was absolutely delicious. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you, Modern Fusion Catering!

Pheasant 

5.0

  • Serves Essex Fells, NJ

We LOVE weddings here at Pheasant! Being entrusted with one of the most important days of a couple’s life is not something we take lightly. After all, the bridal couple may be the focus of the day, but an amazing meal and impeccable service will make the entire event that much more memorable. Our knowledgeable staff will help guide you through the decision-making process as we go through menus, table scapes, furniture, timing, bar service and more together. We also have a strong rolodex of planners and florists that we work with on a regular basis - just ask us for more info!

Working with Pheasant was the best decision we could have made for our wedding!!! Yes, it sounds cliché, but it is true. The title of this post is not even a joke; friends and family will-not-stop-talking-about-how-good-the-food-was-at-the-wedding...I'm like...hello? What about me, the bride? Our hilarious and heartfelt vows? The live band? Or even our surprise choreographed dance? Nope!! The food was the **true highlight** of the day/night. Although I may sound mad about it, I am not because it was absolutely delicious, stunning, fresh, and extremely memorable. The appetizers at cocktail hour, the raw bar, and the family style dinner was 10/10, 5 stars, 100%. Most brides and grooms don't even eat at their wedding because they are mingling...but, we had seconds and thirds with extra romesco sauce!!!! Working with Pheasant was hands down the easiest part of the whole wedding. Lola and Cat were incredibly quick to respond to emails, they went along with our requests and offered incredible suggestions. On top of all of that, they handled the rentals, collaborated with our florist and made the table setting romantic, dreamy, and very us 3 They also emotionally supported my decision when I switched event coordinators somewhat late in the game and they helped me find a better match. Lola and Cat were present and professional throughout our time together and then disappeared like fairy godmothers on the special day. They were there, because I vividly remember demanding a hug, but once the event started, they were working their magic on the backend and making sure we had the wedding of our dreams. I do not have a single complaint and I aim to be as honest as possible when writing reviews because it is what helped me make my decision when I was hiring vendors. Do yourself a favor, and hire Pheasant to cater your wedding and you and your guests can thank me later.
