Everything here is stellar. Very underrated food and the owner is quite kind. Definitely worth considering if you're looking for a good caterer.

We were thrilled with the service here. Sara and team were hired to prepare and serve home cooked food for a small private party at my home. They were communicative, polite, professional, thorough, timely, and the food was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend! More...

We have been using Chef Sara's Personal Chef Services (5 meals/week) for nearly two years now due to significant dietary restrictions.  Her meals are of the highest quality, taste excellent, and always different.  She has not prepared the same meal twice and always delivers delicious seasonal food.  She is very accommodating with any and all dietary restrictions. It is a joy to work with her. More...

Sara took a lot of time to listen to my medical concerns and taste preferences to create my weekly recipes. She takes feedback very well and in addition, I have have hired her to cater a holiday party because I am so pleased with the quality of her food.

Sara’s Cooking and Catering is incredible! The food is outstanding from the ingredients, spices, preparation and so much love. Sara is always willing to work with you in order to get exactly what you want. The price is more than reasonable especially with food cost these days. I recommend Sara’s Cooking and Catering for any events and catering. Thank you Sara!☺️ More...

My wife and I have many dietary limitations. Sara works with us to develop menus that are good for us. She is an excellent chef—her food is delicious. She has a broad repertoire. Portions are good. She is very dependable. More...

When hosting an event, there are things you shouldn’t have to worry about ... the caterer being one of the most important parts of the event. You expect them to be professional, on time, courteous, clean, and of course… serving the most delicious food, in an appetizing manner at a very reasonable price. That is why I am always recommending Sara and her company to so many of my friends who ask me for recommendations. I am always rewarded with a big "thank you" for recommending Sara" because everyone who uses her is so pleased with her food and presentation. More...

The team was amazing, Sara was really professional and helpful loved the work they did would definitely recommend and use them again.

Working with Sara can be summed up into two works. Culinary pleasure. Sara’s cooking offered us myriad opportunities in catering for our party of 100ppl.
While she specializes in colorful modern middle eastern cuisine, Sara’s palate is expansive and can make any of your culinary desires come true at your engagement.
Sara’s team managed our party with ease and success. They were polite and courteous and everybody knew their part in the team to execute a fantastic meal for the party.

Thank you Sara, we will be hiring you again!!

The food is out of this world and Sara‘s customer service and attention to detail are what separates them from others. Her and her team are the perfect caterers for any occasion, big or small.

Sara was recommended by our wedding planner (Once Upon a Time Wedding Services) and we’re so glad she was. Sara, Jackie, and the rest of the staff made our wedding day so special and tasty. The tasting was incredible and ever since we couldn’t wait for our wedding day to taste the delicious food again. They worked with us as our guest list number changed, worked with our rental companies to help us get everything we needed within our budget, and made the day-of great by making sure we actually ate (crucial) and that there was enough food at both cocktail hour and dinner to make sure everyone had enough food to power them through our epic reception dance party. They were also so instrumental in making sure tables were set up, the flow of the reception and cocktail hour was right, and that the night went off without a hitch. I didn’t realize all the tasks a good caterer does to make a wedding successful and Sara’s did SO MUCH for our special day. One other note - Sara’s worked with us for a unique (read: not the standard wedding fare) menu that I’ve seen at no other weddings - truly unique and personalized to our tastes. DO NOT hesitate to book Sara’s for your wedding or event - you won’t regret it! More...

Sara's Cooking and Catering catered a Sunday brunch for 41 people at our family's home.  The food was delicious from the smoked salmon platter to the cooked items - latkes, noodle kugel, french toast, etc.  Sara and her crew came on time, presented a beautiful buffet, and replaced items as needed. Then they packaged up the leftovers, cleaned up and left the kitchen pristine. We highly recommend Sara's Cooking and Catering and would have them again to celebrate another special occasion.

Sara's was really great for our wedding!  Our initial tasting was intimate and helpful.  We ended up going with the Moroccan chicken tagine which is INCREDIBLE.  All payments and communication were clear and prompt via email, invoices were super detailed, and on the day of the wedding, staff were prompt, polite, and jovial and the food was beautiful and, of course, delicious.  We are so appreciative for all that Jackie, Yoel, Sara, and the rest of the crew did to make our wedding guests feel comfortable and well-fed!  They also coordinated with our rental company and packed up all the leftovers for us at the end of the night.  Awesome crew all around!

I truly loved Sara’s Cooking & Catering and highly recommend them to anyone! We hired Sara’s catering for our wedding and they exceeded all of our expectations. They were extremely flexible from the beginning and always willing to work with us regarding our menu and costs. We had the wedding at our house, and it was pouring rain throughout the whole day. Sara’s Cooking & Catering were so incredibly kind, hard-working, and were able to adapt to the weather. They set things up on the fly due to the weather and made everything look better than we even planned. Oh, and the food? Delicious! Our guests continually complimented the food and service during and weeks after the wedding. Sara’s Cooking & Catering made our wedding special, and I can honestly say we will never forget them. We would easily hire them again and I highly suggest you hire them if you are interested. Great food, great service, and great people. To everyone at Sara’s Catering, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you so much for all that you did for us on our wedding day. Peace. More...

I am going back to the source of where I found Sara and absolutely fell in love with her work. From the moment I met her to a year and half later at the wedding, Sara and her team did an outstanding job! Everything from the selection of food, to the quality of food, to the service Sara and team have a flawless system down. She is so passionate and kind to work with, and very accommodating. I 100% recommend Sara for any catered event. I cannot thank her and team enough for all of their hard work, precision, and flawless execution. To put it simply, I will only work with Sara for future catered events! -Abby and Steve More...

Sara's Cooking always puts the customer first. She is always accessible and always willing to help make any changes to the menu, tables, schedules at the customer's request. I've come to only work with Sara for events because there is no caterer out there better than her. I've attended several of their weddings and the set up always reminds me of a beautiful painting. I also use her private chef services do to my special diet. I sat down with Sara and described some of my health problems and she came up with a meal plan to help curb some of my problems. I now feel much healthier since I've started that meal plan and I can thank Sara for making me feel better! Not to mention I've never had a bad meal from Sara, every dish is packed with its own unique flavor and they really try to emphasize worldly cuisine. All the prices are very affordable and Sara was very accommodating to my budget. If you want food prepared by someone other than yourself, or want to have the most beautiful event ever, go to Sara.

We have used Sara twice now for big events.  Sara and her team are spectacular.  We just did a post wediding brunch for over 100 and the food was spectacular.  The potato latkes are a must!  We also had quiche, frittata, and shashuka that were all so wonderfully prepared.    Sara's team is also fantastic.  They kept the food coming (buffet), were wonderful servers and then cleaned the space so that it didn't even look like a party had been there.  Highly recommend Sara!

Sara's Catering was absolutely perfect for the rehearsal dinner for our wedding. Though we don't keep kosher, we went with the kosher menu because we wanted traditional brisket, schnitzel, etc. Everything tasted more delicious than we could have hoped for, and the leftovers stayed yummy for days after. She even surprised us with an extra salad!  Sara and her son dropped off the meal personally, and were so warm and pleasant. We'll definitely look for opportunities to order from them again! More...

Sara recently catered our Department holiday event and it went wonderfully. Sara was very organized from the start and made sure we were happy with the menu and had everything we would need for our event. She provided a drop-off catering service for us, and Sara and her staff arrived promptly and set everything up quickly. The food was delicious and there was more than enough for everyone. The salmon and eggplant dishes were a huge hit. I would definitely recommend Sara's Catering Service! More...
