Keane's Wood-Fired Catering 

5.0

  • Starts at $6,000
  • Serves Newport, RI

Keane’s Wood-Fired Catering (originally named Boru Barbecue and Catering), was founded in 2016 by husband and wife, Padraic and Kaylyn Keane. They have brought together their love of wood-fired barbeque with fermentation and locally sourced products.

I don't even know where to begin - our wedding wouldn't have been the AMAZING event it was without Keane's! We will be forever grateful for their hard-working staff, delicious food/bar services, and of course KYM! Kym was my main point of contact from the beginning of my wedding planning - every single thought/question I threw her way, she had a helpful answer that was prompt and kind. We ended up having Kym add on service as a day of coordinator - and my family is still talking about how much of a rockstar she was. All of my guests that I interacted with that day, and now after, have commented on how lovely all of the catering staff was, and how truly great the food was. I am dreaming about the brisket meatballs, bluefish crostini and mac and cheese. I also had a guest who told me the bar staff made the best margarita they have ever had! We seriously cannot thank this team enough, and I just hope that I am lucky enough to go to another event that they are a part of. I wish I had photos to share of the amazing food, but just know that you will not be disappointed! THANK YOU!!!

It was great working with them, and we felt very confident with the process as it was unfolding and leading up to the event. They were also able to accommodate a lot of dietary restrictions that our guests had. In terms of the day of the event, everything went smoothly too. They arrived on time, the food was great, and the staff was courteous and professional. If we ever have a need for another caterer, we'll definitely look to Emery's!

We had the pleasure of attending a tasting last night with John, Julie, Cathy and Gerard. From start to finish they were hospitable, fun, attentive and knowledgeable in everything that John has to offer. The food- AMAZING. There was so much flavor for every single item we tried. They answered all of our questions but also walked us through what’s included and all of our options. It was an exciting environment and the staff's personalities flowed perfectly with our family. My fiancé and I ended up booking John’s catering service before even leaving the kitchen. We are SO excited to have Tailgate Gourmet at our wedding. John offers such a unique experience with far beyond reasonable prices. If you’re on the fence, don’t be! Book him! John is so kind and hilarious!

We had On the Border cater for our wedding, and I highly recommend them!! The servers arrived early to deliver, set up, serve, and tear down the food. Our guests loved the steak & chicken fajitas, queso, chips & salsa, rice, beans, drinks, and sopapillas. We had 100 guests, and the pricing for On the Border was reasonable for the delicious food. Lisa Wood was our catering sales associate, and she was extremely helpful! The entire wedding planning process is stressful, but she was always available to answer questions, and made numerous changes to our order/contract based on my requests. The servers were professional, and we thought it was kind of them to pack up the leftovers for us to take home. I would absolutely book On the Border for future events!

Smoke And Pickles Catering Company 

5.0

  • Serves Newport, RI
  • Offer

We bring you a wood fire to roast, grill, bbq or smoke a feast. We offer over 30 kinds of tangy, fresh pickles, relishes and salsas for contrast. We track down all the freshest ingredients from local farms and fishing boats.

I have known Smoke and Pickles since 2015, when I began working for them as a cater waiter. Fast forward 9 wedding seasons and I now have the pleasure of working alongside them as a fellow wedding vendor. I am a wedding planner who has had the privilege of knowing this professional, whimsical and knowledgeable company inside and out. First there’s the food, because if you’re looking for a cater that’s a very important component. But they are not a one size fits all kind of caterer. Their food is thoughtfully and locally sourced, and uniquely prepared — which you will immediately know when you see the smoker pull up and taste their house made pickles or sauces. The menu offerings are fresh, seasonal and can be made allergen friendly. It should be noted that much of the magic happens before your big day even approaches. Whether it’s your custom menu curation, assistance with rentals or securing a tent, Smoke & Pickle’s goes above and beyond.

From corporate events, to weddings, and social gatherings, we work hand in hand with you to make sure that all of your standards are met, and to make every occasion or event a thing to remember.

From my very first conversation with Chef Lemaire from Sensory Delights, I knew that they were the perfect vendors for our wedding. Sensory Delights offers a very creative menu and with very fair pricing. The whole team is highly professional; and they have a very thorough system in place to ensure a quality service. As the day approached, Neima was very helpful. She communicated with my wedding planner and also helped us tremendously the day of. As I was getting ready to walk down the aisles, Neima was helping with my dress as I was getting down the stairs. My husband and I chose the plated dinner and Let me tell you, that exceeded our expectations! Our guests kept calling after the wedding to compliment me as they were impressed with the food and services from the servers. One of the main highlights is how they made sure that my bridal party ate during the cocktails hour after the ceremony while taking our pictures. At the end of the night, they had boxed food for my husband and me for the next day. My wedding planner told me how they went the extra mile to make sure that they delivered. They exceeded our expectations. I cannot wait to work with them in the future. Thank you, Sensory Delights. You have gained a lifetime customer. Rose & Deldy

We arranged to have the Tuck-ins team come to our wedding to set up a table with small fire stations and Tuck-ins so that our guests could roast their own s'mores as a fun, interactive dessert. All of my guests loved them and they were also able to take some home if they wanted to save one for later. Additionally, working with the Tuck-ins team was great; they're very responsive and were even able to customize the labels on the Tuck-ins to have our names and wedding date on them. It was truly a unique part of our wedding and I think everyone enjoyed it. Highly recommend!

BITE 

5.0

  • Starts at $10,000
  • Serves Newport, RI for additional fees

We really hate the word "catering". This word conjures all the worst least-common-denominator associations, and we believe that through our attention to craft & collaboration, our work attains an authentic resonance far beyond that of most service providers. We aim to work with and compose for, to express & celebrate our clients' & partners' personalities as best we can. but... Until we find a more poetic & succinct descriptor, catering is what we do. Our projects are equally balanced between private (weddings, birthdays, social gatherings), non-profit (galas, openings, fundraisers) and corporate (launches, fashion shows, meetings).

Scott and his team at BITE are extraordinary. He is deeply passionate about his craft, and together with his team, they are detail-oriented, possess phenomenal style, and have caches of patience. As a culinary industry professional, with cooking being what brought me and my husband together, we envisioned our wedding revolving around the dining experience. I intended to include personal touches in everything from the welcome spritzes to the passed desserts on the dance floor. While most industry professionals would understandably feel daunted by such a task, Scott matched my level of enthusiasm as if it were his own wedding. For every idea and whim I came to him with, he delivered with such grace that underscored how well he interpreted my taste. We planned our wedding for two and a half years during the pandemic, so there were many unexpected changes along the way. Ultimately, Scott guided me to make the decisions that would create the most cohesive event. To make a wedding feel opulent and yet ebullient is one of the rarest of abilities - Scott and his team achieve this with thoughtful, contemporary taste and a laser focus on the guest experience. There were fig leaves and rose geranium that Scott personally retrieved from my dad's garden and infused into the passed dessert bites and cocktails and an edible tablescape that emulated a Dutch oil painting. Guests continued to be awed by the beautiful first course of colorful, seasonal vegetables served individually in perfect unison. The main event was a standing rib roast ornamented with pheasant feathers and a shimmering salt-baked bass elaborately presented on vintage rolling carts, then served in traditional French-style service. Our ceremony was intended to take place in the private gardens of the historic General Theological Seminary in Chelsea, but an unexpected impending storm led to a change of plans. Scott recognized that the rain plan that our wedding planners contrived would not be feasible with the live band and dining table set up before it was too late. He rearranged every aspect of the day, starting with proposing a new ceremony vision that I was just as thrilled with, even though it meant his team would have only one hour to turn over the reception room. I can only imagine the complexities and back-and-forth that pulling off the culinary experience this event no doubt required. Yet, during the week of the wedding, Scott handled everything while providing emotional support every step of the way. Despite the challenges the storm brought, all the technicalities were impeccably executed, and our taste and vision for the evening came alive in the most enchanting way. Now, when I look at the pictures of our ceremony in front of the rose-adorned fireplace in the refectory room, it feels almost preordained. I can still hear Scott’s wise assurances, “It won’t always be what you wanted, but it will be exactly what you need.” Our wedding far exceeded what we envisioned and we credit all the magic to Scott. Thank you, Scott and the BITE team, for not just executing a fantastic meal we will always treasure but for also taking on the planning where it was so needed. Without Scott and his team, we never would have had the opportunity to live the moment so fully. xx Jillian Canaj
