We used Calla Catering for our wedding this winter and could not be happier with the food and service. Every part of working with Calla Catering was phenomenal. The food was delicious and the staff was professional and flexible. Everyone at the wedding kept telling us it was the the best food they’ve had at a wedding. Kim and Linda were so helpful during the entire planning process and made our day run smoothly. We would recommend them (and their grilled cheese) to anyone!

Pamela Gagnon

Calla Catering was absolutely flawless! I am so thankful for Linda & Kim for helping me organize and plan our wedding. From the initial phone call inquiring about their services, to the tasting, to the wedding itself, everything was run so smoothly. Francesco is a great chef and the food was a big hit at our wedding. We had a buffet style dinner with a plated salad, and everybody loved their food. We opted to spend extra money to use their day of coordinating and rehearsal ceremony help, and I am so glad we did!!! Linda was truly a dream and helped keep everything going and helped me feel at ease through the entire process. One of the things I love about Calla Catering is their attention to detail and consistent communication. Like many brides, I sent so many emails and always heard back in a timely manner. Both Linda and Kim truly love what they do, and it shows! I highly recommend Calla Catering for any event! It was extremely easy planning our big day with their expertise. Definitely worth inquiring about, doesn’t matter how big or small your event… they are the best choice out there! Thank you so much

Calla was magnificent for our wedding. We had to postpone twice due to Covid and Linda and Kim were so supportive. They truly helped make our experience seamless. I felt so supported as a bride and they were so flexible and helpful. The day of was EXCEPTIONAL to say the least. Our guests raved about the food and service. Linda and Kim are clearly born to create life-changing events. We are eternally grateful!

Laura Marmion

We loved our experience with Calla from our tasting through our big day. Everyone was talking about how good the apps were! They were very responsive throughout the process and open to changes. They have very organized systems and are clear professionals in the field. The staff on our wedding day were very nice and attentive. They pivoted quickly when we decided to do a receiving line last minute while walking back to the house - bringing apps and drinks to our guests as they waited in line. We would recommend you hire Calla, you won't regret it!!

Laurel Tessier

We are so glad that we chose Calla for our wedding. Linda, Kim, and the entire team were so helpful, responsive to all of our questions and concerns. Calla was able to help us execute our vision flawlessly (we are two designers- the vision was specific!), and was so helpful with all the logistics, between furniture rentals, vendor coordination, and day of coordination. Not to mention, Francesco’s food is absolutely delicious! Many of our guests told us that their dinners and apps were the best that they had ever had at a wedding. We also appreciated the little touches so much- Calla sent us home with extra desserts at the end of the night, and brought us our own little plate of apps and cocktails during our photos, so we could have a chance to eat them. We truly cannot recommend them enough!

Zoe Karavolis

Working with Calla Catering for our wedding was a wonderful experience. We primarily worked with Linda and Kim, who were an absolute joy and made everything run smoothly. I was an out-of-town bride, and they were so flexible with my schedule and needs. Our guests raved about the food at our wedding, and I am eternally grateful to them for making our day go off without a hitch.

Maddi Waife

I cannot recommend Calla enough to any couple!! Linda, Kim, and the entire staff were incredible, professional, accommodating, and fun! I especially recommend adding on the day-of coordination services; our wedding had a lot of moving parts and Kim made everything run so smoothly. Our appetizers that we got through them were also so delicious! I can't imagine our wedding without Calla...THANK YOU!

Kayleigh Thomas

Calla made our wedding so special! Good food is very special to both of our families, so it was important to us that we found a vendor whose food was fun and joyful. After our tasting we knew we'd found the right vendor (the braised chicken is a MUST). In addition to providing an amazing menu for the buffet and passed appetizers, they worked with us to add some special touches that made the wedding feel more unique to us (hot apple cider for our outdoor ceremony in November, apple cider donuts for dessert, a boozy coffee bar after dessert, etc.) All of our guests raved about the food, including those with dietary restrictions, who Calla catered to and provided options that were just as good as the buffet. An added hurdle is that our wedding was at a venue without a kitchen, so Calla brought in their own cooking equipment. They also helped us rent tables, chairs, linens, cutlery, etc. It was such a relief to work with one vendor for so many different checklist items. We worked with co-owner Kim Livesey as our Day-Of Coordinator, and it was a phenomenal decision. We spend hours on phone calls picking out linens, rearranging table set-ups, and making a plan for the decor. With her team, she set and up and tore down all of our decor, so all we had to do was transport it to and from the venue. We are so grateful for their team!

Andrew McAuliffe

I had just used Calla for my wedding this September.... They're fantastic! The food is amazing, I cant tell you how many of my guests are still messaging me about how good the food was. For me personally, they went above and beyond to help my wife and I get everything ready for the day, the staff was just on...point. These are great people to work with, very accommodating and they will make sure your event turns out the way you want. Thank you again to everyone at Calla!

Matthew Howard

Calla was absolutely amazing! From the start it was clear they were professional, organized, and cared about making sure they deliver the best result, and they did. The whole process with the Calla team was easy, never an issue, and best of all the food was absolutely amazing! We are still having people tell us how much they loved the food at our wedding. Would hire again without hesitation.

Amy Kieran Winokur

The staff at Calla Catering were very professional and organized throughout the entire planning process. Linda and her team were there every step of the way for answering questions and making sure all of our wishes came true. And the food...outstanding! So many compliments from our guests. We couldn't have been happier with the way everything turned out.

Tianli Kilpatrick

I would recommend Calla to anyone. They were prompt and professional throughout the entire process, guiding us through our many questions! Their food was INCREDIBLE; we loved the cocktail hour flatbreads and the butternut squash ravioli the best! Linda and her team made the night stress-free as they seamless kept everything flowing, even with a couple of last minute changes. Many of our guests after complemented Calla on how organized and professional the night was run. I would highly recommend them for any event!

Gloria Kuris

Calla did an amazing job with our daughter’s Bat Mitzvah! We had two tastings with them and both were amazing- and the food was just as good at the event. Everyone was so impressed! They were incredibly communicative and helpful with every aspect of the event, and the day of event coordinator package made the event as streamlined as possible. I highly recommend Calla!

Sarah Davekos

We so enjoyed working with Cava in preparation for our wedding and cannot being to describe what an incredible job they did in helping ensure the day went smoothly. With long distance planning it was a struggle to feel like we had everything together but the Cava staff did anything and eveything to make sure our day went off without a hitch. Friends and family are still raving about the food! The menu and service Cava provides does not seem to be matched by the other available caterers. Our was a magical day and one we will remember always!

Sue Rice

Catering and Kim the wedding planner at my niece's wedding were just superb. The service and attention was top notch. I would recommend this company anytime. Thank you!

Kim Yelle

Kim Livesey and the entire Calla Catering family did an exceptional job catering for my outdoor wedding. I wanted a "Covid safe" wedding day with minimal people involved with food and drinks and they had exactly what I wanted - individual meals all wrapped separately! It was the fanciest "box" lunch I've ever had! The food got rave reviews from everyone. We had our coolers personalized for guests to take home, and the tucked in menu card was added flair! I highly recommend this company! Total cost was extremely fair given all that they did - especially in a short 1 month planning window! Kim thank you for your patience and keeping me sane!! We had the steak, salmon, and chicken for entrees and they were all scrumptious!! Yes - I tried them all!! Thank you Calla Catering!

Elle Moran

Calla Catering is simply the best. My husband and I hired them for our wedding. They have been so wonderful, professional and detail oriented since day one. I have a lot of food allergies and they were able to accommodate for all of them. This meant changing certain ingredients to ensure each dish was delicious and something everyone could eat. My guests RAVED about the food and are still talking about it months later. We paid extra to have the day of coordinator and it was worth every penny! Linda was the epitome of keeping a cool head and knew just what to do. I felt completely comfortable in her hands. We recommend Calla Catering to anyone we know. They have gone above and beyond to make our day so special!

Hannah K Lindquist

Kim and the team at Calla were incredible! Everyone raved about the delicious food at our wedding and thanks to Kim's expert coordination, everything went smoothly and the night was exactly how we had imagined it. We cannot recommend Calla catering enough- they truly were the most wonderful, supportive, creative, resourceful and competent team!

Lara Lofdahl

We were so lucky to find Calla for our wedding. We had a small wedding (around 50 guests) and wanted breakfast for dinner, and the Calla team was all for it! From the very beginning, Linda was responsive and professional - one of the few caterers I spoke to that called when she said she would and returned emails in timely manner. Our tasting was a dream and they were so flexible with our vision, even getting a waffle maker so we could have waffles! As the day got closer, Linda was there to answer my last-minute bridal questions and provide us with everything we needed. Our wedding was so perfect and I know a lot of that is due to the hard work of Linda, the Calla catering staff, and the work of their bar division, Cocktails. We also have been getting so many compliments on the food, from the main dishes down to the salad dressing! 10/10 would recommend. Thank you so much!

I highly recommend Calla Catering to anyone in search of a reliable, efficient and easy to work with catering company. Our wedding was originally scheduled for 5/24/20. In March of 2020 when the world began to shut down and it was looking less likely that our wedding would be able to occur in May Calla worked with us to ensure that we secured a new date and that every part of the procedure of changing the date vs cancelling was laid out to us. Calla was extremely transparent throughout the process and nothing but helpful. Unfortunately, our original venue was not as accommodating, and we reached a stand still in negotiating a rate to move our date to 2021. Calla was once again available to us and gave us several other venues that they work with regularly to look into as at this point my husband and I had decided it was most important to ensure that we had Calla as part of our wedding day. We wound up working with another venue they recommended, and we had a beautiful day. Calla always had prompt follow-up with me for any questions I had and was very flexible with all the changes the pandemic brought even though I am sure it was a stressful for time for them as well as us. They seamlessly changed our date not once, but twice without additional charges and even accommodated us needing to change the number of guests from over 100 to 65. In terms of the food, everyone was giving me compliments throughout the night and in the weeks following our wedding. We decided on a taco bar which was buffet style. The buffet ran smoothly which was a huge concern for me, but Calla brought their expertise and kept things moving along. We chose to have dessert through them as well and did ice cream cookie sandwiches which were also a hit with everyone! They did a wonderful job cleaning up everything as I went back to pick-up decorations the next day and everything was neatly stacked and ready to go. I truly cannot put into words how grateful I am to have found such a wonderful company to work with and would not hesitate to recommend them to all my family and friends as well as use them again in the future for other occasions. Special shout out to Linda who was always so pleasant and my primary contact through most of the coordinating stage.

Devan Cody

Hiring Kim and the team at Cava Catering to be our wedding caterer and coordinator was hands down the best wedding decision we could have made! Kim and her team were so exceptionally talented and helpful during the planning process – they worked around our limited schedules for each meeting, responded to our numerous emails with many questions, and calmed our planning nerves many times! They helped us pick out rentals and truly made our wedding vision come to life. Day of, they made sure everything went smoothly and we felt very confident going into the big day knowing they were handling it all. The food was incredible – our guests are still talking about how fun and fabulous their appetizers were during cocktail hour! They prepared us our own plate of appetizers to eat during dinner too, which was just so thoughtful since we were so busy during cocktail hour greeting everyone. Their unique and comprehensive menu allowed us to truly design a menu that felt like “us” and enjoy our favorite foods as a couple together on our wedding day. We would 100% hire Kim and Cava Catering again! I wish I could give them 10 stars.

Kathleen Fernandes

We can’t express how pleased we were with Calla Catering, especially Linda. I can easily say picking them to work with was the best decision we made for our wedding. We wanted a backyard wedding from day one and knew we had to find the right company to help with set up and take down, food, bar, and all the things you forget you need that most venues have. Well they did it all and I mean EVERYTHING! When we came across them we set up a tasting, we were blown away and booked them the next day. The food was outstanding everything was fresh and perfect for a summer wedding. We chose passed appetizers, the tropical shrimp was amazing, and a buffet dinner our guest loved the food and still are taking about it. Linda was truly my life saver she helped me with so much and answered my many, many emails graciously. She was by our side the whole wedding day making sure we got to eat everything and always had a drink in our hands and or course to keep the day flowing smoothly. The whole process with Calla Catering was smooth, professional and affordable book your tasting as soon as you can and get them on the books for your event!

Desiree Baker

Working with Calla Catering was a great way to have an all inclusive caterer to take care of wedding details and keep it in one place! We opted to utilize a venue as almost an upscale backyard wedding and it really helped to have someone who could organize everything from table and chair rentals, to the bar, and even event staffing. This also made it easy for us to include gratuity and just ultimately limit our headaches for the day! Also- the Chicken Picatta is a MUST have! Overall, we had a great day and a pretty smooth planning process! If you are an engaged couple that is organized, likes to be creative with planning, and really makes the wedding your own, Calla is a great caterer for you! Calla is also great with creative venues that will bring a wedding to life!

Korinne Robertson

From start to finish Calla Catering and Events LLC was top notch! They made planning our wedding day seamless and all of the staff members from Calla Catering that we worked with were outstanding. Our guests raved about our food and we had no stress as it relates to the set-up and breakdown of our event. All of the behind the scenes went unnoticed and the quality of their work was exceptional. We highly recommend this catering company and are extremely thankful that we secured them for our special day!

Tia Carioli

Not only did Cava design and serve up the most delicious menu at our wedding, but they also helped to plan and coordinate all of the details so we were able to fully enjoy the big day. My (now) husband had been to a wedding last summer and thought the food was great, so when we found out it was Cava who catered and helped with coordination and planning services, we decided to work with them for our own upcoming wedding. Kim walked us through everything we needed to be thinking about, choices we needed to make, and took care to guide us along the way with options that would fit our budget. Cava helped to coordinate staffing, rentals, bar orders, set up and breakdown and worked with the venue to make sure everything ran smoothly. Even when they ran into inevitable challenges (some rentals showed up late) the Cava team worked to find impromptu solutions so that we didn’t have to worry about a thing and our timeline stayed on track. Kim was our day of coordinator and we couldn’t have done it without her! She was calm, organized, and was super on top of all the moving pieces, and made sure everyone enjoyed a seamless experience. The staff at our wedding went above and beyond to be helpful, nice, and attentive. Our guests are still telling us how much fun they had, and especially how delicious the food was! We had the bonus of getting to eat yummy leftovers for days afterwards, feeding our out of town family members as well!

Julianne Gilligan

Beyond happy! Calla was probably the best decision we made for our wedding. Linda and Blair were so responsive, helpful, calm and attentive during the planning process. No detail was missed. The star of our wedding was absolutely Blair. People are still talking about her! She was amazing. From helping me with my eyelashes at the rehearsal to checking in on my Nana during the ceremony she didn’t miss a beat. Seriously amazing. Not to mention the food was phenomenal and Blair made sure my husband and I got our serving, appetizers too! It was a perfect day, exactly how we wanted it! Just book them now.

Hannah Brady

Kim and Cava were wonderful to work with for our wedding! They catered our cocktail hour and helped to staff the entirety of the event. Kim and the team were very accommodating and willing to work with us to make our vision come true. We thoroughly enjoyed our taste testing process and all planning conversations. The food was delicious and we, along with our guests were very happy with all of the food. We also were thrilled that we decided to go with their day of coordinator service. Mel was fantastic!

Jillian Bailey

Cava was fantastic & instrumental in making my wedding come together. From the very beginning, they were super responsive to our questions and the food at our tasting was delicious! Between booking them and our actual day, Kim was incredibly helpful. She was a resource not just for catering questions, but for general wedding questions too! Having never planned an event on that scale before, I really appreciated her always giving me honest answers and helpful suggestions. We opted to pay the additional fee to have a Cava staff member be our onsite coordinator for our wedding day. Kim was amazing and SO EFFICIENT! She helped the rehearsal run smoothly and on the actual day she was insanely helpful. It was just reassuring to have her there because it knew it would all be taken care of! The food and service on our wedding day were phenomenal and we got lots of compliments!

Alyssa D'Oria

Calla, and Linda especially, were incredible to work with when planning our recent bridal shower. Linda was incredibly responsive and easy to work with, and was super flexible with defining final headcount as people waited to RSVP due to COVID. They offered a great suggestions for planning the menu and thoughtful touches. Linda even matched the food labels to our theme and printed a special menu to match the favors that the bride could keep. Everyone could not stop raving about the food, especially the french toast bake! Calla Catering truly helped make the shower such a special day! Can't wait to work with them again in the future!

Rebecca Woodbury

Kim and Francesco made our day the best wedding in history. People continue to compliment us on how amazing the food was at our wedding. I had some really quirky ideas for the food we wanted and Kim worked with me to build the most amazing menu, as well as worked with our venue and other vendors to create a fantastic atmosphere. She took care of everything and they were extremely generous with their time and with helping us to find the best price for everything we were asking for. I couldn’t ask for a better company to cater my wedding. They were so incredibly professional and easy to work with. Do yourself a favor and go with Cava.

Gillian Matthews

We had a great experience working with the Cava team for our wedding! After talking to several caterers we chose Cava – Kim was very easy to talk to, listened to everything we hoped for our day, and gave us great confidence. The tasting session clinched the deal for us – the whole menu was delicious and beautifully presented! As we planned our wedding, Kim was an awesome resource – her wealth of experience and attention to detail was incredibly valuable to us. We had many special requests for the day, and we really appreciated the way Cava worked to meet them all and offered us helpful advice wherever possible. We had a largely DIY venue, and planned much of the day ourselves, with help from family and friends. Cava’s professionalism and organization made the whole day run smoothly, and we had nothing but compliments on the quality of the food. We can highly recommend Cava as a fantastic team for your wedding day!

Samantha O'Neil

My bridesmaids selected Calla Catering to cater my bridal shower last weekend - such an amazing choice! Although I was not there for the dropoff portion, the setup was perfect (they even included food signs that went with our theme!!) We did a brunch - mini parfaits, fruit salad, the MOST AMAZING french toast bake, frittatta, bacon, sausage.. everyone was raving about the food. We also had leftovers that were just as delicious the day after. I would highly recommend this company for catering needs, and am excited to use them again in the future!!

Leah Larkin

If you are a bride looking for a wonderful company to work with for your wedding, Cava Catering is the company for you! Kim was beyond amazing helping us get everything we wanted while staying within our budget. Cava was one stop shopping from food and staffing to rentals and bar tenders, Cava provided it all! The staff was kind and professional and everything looked perfect for my big day. Now let’s talk food! Most of the time when you think about Wedding food it’s is not much to remember. Our food has been all the talk from our guests. Everyone was raving about our stations and all the delicious appetizers. Besides marrying the love of my life that day, Cava Catering was one of the best decisions I could have made!

Elizabeth Pratt

Hiring Calla Catering is the best thing you can do to help make your wedding go smoothly. The staff is attentive and experienced. They handle all the rentals, drop off, setup, break-down, and permits. The food was unbelievable and we were able to completely customize our menu. If you want to have the best possible event, you want to hire Calla.

Jay Capua

We are so happy that we chose Calla to cater our wedding in August 2021. They were extremely responsive from the very beginning and were very flexible, allowing us to easily get a quote for exactly the service we were looking for as well as rental service for linens and everything else we needed. On the day of the wedding the event staff was professional and courteous and the food was exception from the passed hors d'oeuvres to the dessert. We fully recommend Calla for their exceptional wedding catering services.

Yeji Son

I genuinely cannot say enough good things about Calla Catering. Not only was my food absolutely delicious, the whole process from start to finish went seamlessly. Planning a wedding in the midst of a pandemic is not easy, and I feel like I was changing things every other day but they were more than accomodating and willing to work with me. And on the day of the wedding, their staff was amazing and so professional. They took care of the set up, the buffet service, and everything in between. Definately reccomend them for your catering needs for any event, esp a wedding!

Samantha Arzu

Kim and the Cava team were amazing! Kim did a great job communicating with us through the entire process. The services Cava provides do not exist anywhere else for the price point. You can tell that Cava truly values the customer and the experience and is not just out there to profit; Kim even threw in a few added extras at no cost! I truly believe our wedding could not have gone off as smoothly as it did without her and the team's assistance. The food and desserts were AMAZING! I got so many compliments on how delicious the food was.

Sarah Kuhnen

We had a fantastic experience with Cava Catering for our rehearsal dinner for our sons wedding. They were easy to work with. The service was excellent and the food was delicious. The presentation of the food was beautiful. All of our guest raves about the food and many spoke that they had never had such a great rehearsal dinner at a wedding before. There was plenty of food and we had them do homemade gelato bars for dessert. They were a huge hit. I would higher them them again for any occasion. We were beyond happy!

Avalon

I highly recommend Cava catering. Kim helped us from the very beginning with choosing the food. They helped us with ordering all rentals, from the tables and chairs to the dishes and table clothes. They provided the bartender as well. The day of the wedding was amazing because of Cava. Kim ensured the wedding ran smoothly. The food was delicious. Our guests talked about how good the food was even after the wedding. It’s because of Kim, Linda, and the crew that I was able to plan the wedding of my dreams.

Julie Ross

GOD BLESS Calla Catering! We had the most magical wedding in every single way and it exceeded our expectations and any dream we had of what the day/ weekend would look like. They were the most flexible vendor during COVID and worked with us through every COVID guideline change and postponing our wedding. After our wedding everyone kept asking us who our caterer was because the food was SO fantastic and creative. They made the plates and signs look so pretty that all of our friends instagrammed it! They worked with our guests complicated food allergies and our likes and dislikes and came up with the most delicious, beautiful, and unique plates. Down to the extravagant tasting they held in our wedding theme for our whole family, they didn't miss any tiny little detail throughout the whole experience. I could not recommend them highly enough.

Collin Ausfeld

My experience with Cava Catering and Kim was amazing. We planned our wedding at a summer camp in Maine and really did not know where to start. When we reached out to Kim and her team she made the whole process very easy for us. If you are looking for high quality catering and very professional wedding planning please use Cava Catering and Events.

Cheryl Cronin

Cava Catering, Kim and Francesco brought wonderful food and a great vibe to our son's wedding, held at our Cape house. I work in the food business so know great food and service when I see it. The food was of great quality and the service was gracious and friendly. Kim was the day of coordinator and was an absolute pleasure. I would highly recommend Cava to any bride and groom, or for any occasion and they will be my first call for any event. Cheryl Cronin

Patrick Delaney

We have nothing but amazing things to say about our experience with Calla. We wanted to give a HUGE shoutout to Linda who helped us every step of the way, and eased our anxieties while planning our wedding throughout Covid. Calla is more than just a catering company, they are a team of superstars who went above and beyond to make sure every aspect of our big day was perfect. With that said, the food was unbelievable! From the passed hors d’oeuvres to the dinner buffet to the dessert, we heard endless compliments from our guests. The waitstaff and bartending group were extremely professional. We had such an amazing day, and we cannot thank Calla enough for making our dream wedding a reality. Cassidy & Patrick 6.12.2021

Diana Filar

I cannot say enough about Cava catering -- I recommend them for all couples getting married and anyone planning a party! They stood out from the start of the wedding planning process until the end. Kim really understood that we wanted to stick to a budget, and she helped us by offering a variety of choices and making the right recommendations for linens, food, drinks, and planning. To be honest, paying for the day-of-coordination was the best money we spent on our wedding (besides the dress of course!). Kim and Linda made the day stress free and went above and beyond and really understood our vision. Linda even made signs for our desserts and bar that fit with our theme. We were so pleasantly surprised. My guests could also not say enough about the AMAZING food. This was not typical wedding food. I am still eating the leftovers! I want to write more, but I feel like I would just be typing the word AMAZING over and over again!

Karina Sterrett

Kim and Cava Catering made our wedding spectacular. From our initial tasting, we were on the same page - great food and a lot of food. The pricing wasn't by piece, it was by person and the pricing was incredibly reasonable. With Kim, we were able to make the menu ours instead of following a standard pick-from-three menu. Our wedding guests loved the food and were raving about it for days. Our venue had limited kitchen access and Kim worked with this limitation without an issue. I also used the extended day-of coordinator services - this allowed the day to run smoothly and I didn't have to worry about the details on the wedding day (they set up everything!) Kim and her team have a ton of experience! I highly recommend Cava Catering.

Amanda Hart

We had a Sunday brunch wedding and Cava Catering was eager to help us come up with a creative menu. We heard from multiple people that the food was delicious. We also used their baker and the macaron tower & with wedding cake topper came out exactly as I had envisioned. Linda and Kim were also both very responsive to our emails throughout the entire process.

Courtney Doyle

We had a wonderful experience with Cava as our wedding caterer! We went with a summer BBQ style menu, which included appetizers (passed & stationary), a dinner buffet, and desserts for our 150-person reception. They used fresh, seasonal ingredients, and everything was downright delicious! They were also very accommodating to our guests with dietary restrictions. Additionally, Kim was awesome to work with! She was incredibly responsive and organized throughout our entire planning process, and as our day-of coordinator, she ensured that everything ran smoothly and we didn’t have to worry about a thing! We also appreciated that they were upfront about pricing and totally understanding with regard to budget. Overall, we highly recommend Cava!

Esther Babson Sperling

We absolutely loved working with Kim at Cava Catering. She did an incredible job managing all the details day-of and making sure that every ran smoothly. We received so many compliments from our guests on how great the food was. They also allowed us to incorporate some personal touches which made the day that much more special. We would highly recommend!

Andy Soares White

Cava Catering provided the food catering services for our July wedding celebration. Kim and the team were spectacular from the start. They were very friendly and accommodating – helping us choose food options, sourcing food locally, and being very mindful of our budget. We requested tabled and passed hors d’oeuvres rather than the traditional full meals and Kim helped us decided on the right amount and flow for the night. The day of party they were completely independent allowing us to focus on our guests and the celebration. We had so many compliments from our party guests on the food. Especially the mezze platter (which was overflowing with spectacular meats and cheeses) and the buffalo cauliflower. Kim checked in occasionally to make sure everything was going well and the only feedback we had for her were all of the compliments we were receiving. Kim and the team took care of everything and helped make our evening that much more special. We would recommend Cava catering without hesitation and we will be using them in the future for all our events.

Mary Fuhrer

Kim and her crew catered a very special birthday party for my mother and 30+ extended family here at our home. Everything was beautiful, delicious, and expertly handled - all I had to do was enjoy our guests! Kim visited my house a month ahead of time to help plan space use, table settings, use of outdoor areas, rentals, etc. She assessed our ovens/stove, etc. and determined what additional equipment would be needed to carry out our plan. She advised on the menu - walked us through all the options and choices, asked the questions I would have forgotten, etc. Communication leading up to the event was excellent. All rentals and personnel arrived just as planned, the food freshly and expertly prepared in my home, the table settings just lovely - Kim even brought beautiful peonies from her own gardens to add elegance to the buffet. Service to my guests was excellent, attentive but inconspicuous, friendly and efficient. While I mingled with our guests at the close of the evening, Kim and her staff cleaned everything to a T, quietly returning my home to normal. A+ on all accounts - and people are still raving about the delicious menu. Thanks, Cava!

Jillian Serra

I cannot say enough about how amazing Kim and her entire team at Cava were for our engagement party over the summer. From the initial phone conversation with Kim, she was very calm and organized, and made me feel like she had complete control over everything. We planned a meeting with Kim to go over options and she offered a mini tasting- which was fantastic. We gave Kim a budget and what we were looking for- and she just made it work. The options, the attention to detail, the pricing and the food all seemed too good to be true. Kim sent us a proposal with a full breakdown of costs, staffing, equipment and timing. We were so impressed by everything… and the event hadn’t even started yet! In the days leading up to the party, Kim was always available to answer any questions we had, and sent several emails to confirm all the details- which made me feel very relaxed. On the day of, the team showed up with everything they needed and got to work independently and efficiently. All of our guests commented on how amazing the food was, and how incredibly friendly the staff was! Between the passed hors d'oeuvres and the stations they set up, everyone was so impressed at the quality and presentation. At the end of the night, the team left the kitchen cleaner than they found it. They packaged up all the delicious leftovers and packed them away in our fridge. I highly recommend Cava Catering for any occasion- whether it be a backyard party (like mine) or an event at a function hall- they truly are very talented. I absolutely will be calling Kim/Cava in the future!

Had the fall feast buffet at my wedding in October! It was a huge hit! The company even helped out when I was diagnosed with celiac disease mid planning and helped find good gluten free options! Would definitely recommend

Calla were perfection while planning and executing our wedding. Every contact was professional and kind. They were head and shoulders above other vendors in terms of their COVID response and pulled off the most perfect wedding day for us.

We had Calla cater our bat mitzvah celebration and they were amazing to work with. Responsive, helpful, provided guidance and recommendations and the food freshness, quality and taste were fabulous. Had multiple guests comment on how good the food was. Thank you!!

I would not recommend anyone but Cava. Kim and Francesco are there for you from the beginning and give 100 percent. Their experience is evident in the sense that my wedding went extremely smooth and the food was great. Endless compliments on their staff and how well put everything was. Could not have asked for better customer service.

WOW, JUST WOW!!!! My husband and I had a dream backyard wedding, catered and staffed by Cava. It was so stressful to get things in order for our wedding and the easiest part was working with Cava...they held a beautiful private food tasting for us about 6 months before the big day- complete with a gorgeous presentation and a glass of wine :) On the day of our wedding, which was held at my childhood home...the friendly staff set-up quickly, cleanly (if thats a word?), and in such a stress-free manner (which is hard to do when they're workspace was in my parent's garage!!) THE FOOD Apps/Small bites were a 10/10 !! the crowd favorite was a the buffalo chicken wontons and the mini grilled cheese squares in a tomato soup shot...The staff were detail-oriented in revisiting people who had favorites in the snacks they were passing out- also, while my husband and I snuck away for a photoshoot during cocktail hour, one of the staff members brought over a beautiful tasting tray of all the appetizers for us to try (because who isn't starving after all that planning and the ceremony?!) It was so thoughtful and so insanely delicious. DINNER was beautifully displayed- steak/chicken piccata were amazing and my FAVORITE, the butternut squash ravioli YUMMM...I made sure to have my mom set aside an extra plate of the food for my husband and I to enjoy for breakfast the next day (LOL, it was that good) we went for a side of grilled veggies which were perfection..and a few other sides that all wowed our guests. The waiters were SO attentive, so helpful, and friendly, without distracting from conversation or the flow of the evening. Quick note- Kim Livesy, our on-site coordinator- was a true MVP of our day and made everything go so seamlessly! IF YOU WANT AMAZING FOOD, FRIENDLY STAFF, AND STRESS-FREE VENDOR...Choose Cava!! 10/10!!!! Thank you Cava!!!.
