I had my wedding on 10/31/2020 (Yes I had a Halloween wedding) at The Grand Banquet Hall in Linden, NJ. From the beginning to the end the service was exceptional. They kept open lines of communication and always reassured me with any concerns I had. Our wedding turned out amazing!! Jackie, Pam and their team worked really hard to make sure that our special day exceeded all expectations we had! They took all the necessary precautions due to Covid which put me at ease. They were very accommodating to my gluten allergy and made sure I was able to eat and the food was delicious! Despite these crazy times, I am glad that I was still able to have my dream wedding come true and I would definitely recommend this venue for your next event!! More...

T&L did an outstanding job with party rentals, catering and bar tending for my Retirement/Birthday party held recently. Linda was great helping me plan for the event, Tom helped with party rentals and made sure I was prepared to have the outdoor event in my yard to accommodate COVID guidelines. I had 60 plus people and all went great! Nina and Hall served the food, managed carving station and desserts. Hector was outstanding managing the bar. My family and friends are still talking about the great food, wait staff, the gorgeous tent and table coverings. I have used T&L for years, however, this was the biggest event ever and they made it a night to remember for me and my guests. A big thank you to the team! More...

This is not just a chartering company, Tom and his staff review every detail of your event with you to assure everything is the way you want it and is carried out on the day of your event.

Simply the best. We had to change plans and had just about 2 months to put together a backyard tent wedding for our daughter. The best decision we made was to hire T&L Catering. From the moment we met him, we knew Tom was the right guy. Knowledgeable, affable, flexible and so easy to work with - Tom put the effort into our event like it was his own. We even got the tent/tables/chairs thru Tom, which made for seamless execution. And the food was excellent - far beyond our expectations - first class in every way. Our guests are still commenting on how great the appetizers and the dinner were. The staff was awesome, too: each one was engaging, polite and efficient. The evening was a great success, thanks to Tom and his team. More...

These guys were the best. Actually 3rd event they planned , first wedding. The food amazing! Service impeccable. Took care of everything. Bartender, servers. Made sure the bride and groom were taken care of first, along with his 97 yr old mom. And they came aboard 3 weeks before the event after the first caterer bailed. And for less money than the last guy and that included the tents which were last minute as well. Do not use anyone but these guys More...

My now wife and I called up T&L Catering on a recommendation from a family friend. We were in the process of moving our wedding to our backyard amidst the covid-19 pandemic. I worked primarily with Tom in planning everything, and I could not have been happier with his responsiveness from the get-go. Tom was not only knowledgeable and confident about his ability to make our day special, but he emphasized the company's desire to make it a safe event and to follow all recommended protocol to keep us and our guests feeling safe and healthy. He and his wife came out to our house a few weeks before the wedding to see where they would be setting things up. They assured us that, day of, they would be able to make any adjustments as needed.

On the actual day of the wedding, we could not have been happier with T&L catering staff. Georgeanne was our Maitre D' and she was incredible. She had called me a few days before the wedding to discuss final details. When we arrived back at our house from our ceremony site, it looked like a banquet hall. My wife and I were thrilled with the quality of the food and the frequency of it (some weddings we have been to feel like hors d'oeuvres are nowhere to be found, but not with T&L Catering!). We received rave reviews from our friends and family (the taco station was a HUGE hit especially).

Overall, we cannot speak highly enough about T&L Catering. We want to thank them for all that they did for us, and we hope that other people will continue to use them in order to make their day something truly incredible, even if it is a rescheduling to a backyard wedding during a pandemic!

T&L catering is exactly what we were looking for in a catering vendor. Affordable, appropriate prices with a variety of options that was more than enough for our guests to choose from. We loved every aspect of the team, with the head coordinator of our day providing my groom and I our meal at our sweetheart table without us having to lift a finger.

One of the staff even offered me a Tylenol when she overheard me mentioning how my back was hurting just before the reception started. It meant so much to have our entire guest list provided with more than enough quality food.

Tom made the experience of booking and inquiring very personal and reassuring to my husband and I. Would definitely book again, cannot recommend enough. More...

For our outdoor tented wedding we did a buffet style dining experience and a cocktail hour with passed apps. The options were endless and they did a great job keeping everyone happy all night especially during these tough times during the pandemic. They take all of the necessary precautions.
There are no words to describe how amazing Tom, his family, and entire staff are. They made our wedding a night to remember. Working with them is super easy and their food was better than I could've dreamed! They were the talk of our wedding. They are professional, honest, so kind and hardworking and I would recommend them for any catered event you need! They are a model for not just caterers but all businesses out there.
Also, Tom gives great advice for all events so I definitely suggest listening to all of his suggestions. He knows this business in and out and we wouldn't be able to have our dream wedding without his help. More...

Silver Platter Caterers (a new division of T &L Caterers based in North Plainfield) catered my engagement cocktail party at my parents’ house last weekend. They did a phenomenal job - countless guests asked us who the caterer was because their staff was so attentive and the food was so exceptional. All communication with Pam ahead of the event was seamless - the on-site run through two days before could not have gone more smoothly. Pam came and took detailed notes and photos of the house, capturing key information to share with her staff so they’d know exactly how to set up. We had rented a portable bar we found online through a totally separate third party vendor. When the bar arrived the day before the party in extremely poor condition, Pam went out of her way to provide assistance. She remedied the situation by giving us a white linen skirt which she said we could cut to cover the front of the damaged bar. Pam was so helpful during a stressful situation and her creative solution was much appreciated. The day of the party, Georgeanne and her team arrived hours before the event. They took over the kitchen and transformed the house making it beautiful and event ready. Both bartenders were awesome and all servers could not have been nicer - they thought of every little detail and the presentation of the food was lovely. From the passed hors d’oeuvres and cold station, to the paella, carved beef/ham, and sliders, all food was delicious. The dessert spread with a beautiful presentation of mini-cupcakes and assorted bite size cakes was also a massive hit – kudos to the Chef. Can’t recommend Silver Platter Caterers enough! More...
