When my husband and I met with Anthony from Moriches Caterers in the beginning of our wedding planning process, we had a vision for a rustic, but elegant wedding, which was to be held in a historical society barn where there had never been a wedding before. This barn did not have running water, a bathroom for our guests, or an on-site kitchen…it was essentially a shell. We were concerned about how we would pull this off with our lack of experience in party planning and a tight budget. When we met with Anthony, we expressed these concerns. Within our first meeting with him, we had full confidence in his ability to execute our vision successfully. With his 28 years of experience in this field, his attention to detail, intuitiveness, and “get-it-done” attitude and work ethic, he put us at ease. Throughout our wedding planning process, Anthony dedicated much time to meeting with us to discuss the plans for our menu, layout of the barn, rentals, etc. and he made visits to Shelter Island where our event was to be held so that he could take measurements to provide us with possible layout options. Anthony always kept our best interest in mind and he was honest. He did all that he could to respect our budget while also providing us with the experience we were hoping for. Additionally, he guided us throughout the process to help us know what was essential for achieving our vision and where to cut costs. Anthony knew exactly what we needed. Just three weeks prior to our event, I changed my mind about the type of tables I wanted to use. This, in turn, would affect our entire layout. Anthony was extremely flexible and accommodating. He met with us to go over our new plan and found a way to make it happen. Every time we left a meeting with him, we felt that we could relax because he had it all under control. The day prior to the wedding, Anthony traveled out to Shelter Island to ensure that all our rentals were delivered (tables, chairs, tablecloths, napkins, glasses, etc.). On our wedding day, he took total control so that we could enjoy our special day. When we arrived at the barn, we were blown away by the ambiance that Anthony and Carmen had created...it completely exceeded our expectations. Their attention to detail enriched the theme and experience of our wedding. They incorporated historical pieces found at the barn as functional décor and brought their own lanterns that were placed on cocktail tables outside (which we hadn’t even planned for). As for the staff, my husband kept saying that they were like “ninjas”…they kept the place looking spotless without even being noticed. The transitions from cocktail hour, to dinner, to desert and coffee throughout the celebration were seamlessly flawless. This led to a smooth flow of the day. All of this comes without even commenting on how stellar the food was! We knew the food was delicious and tastefully prepared from our tasting, but our guests were RAVING about the food and its presentation (and we have some tough critics in our family!). The food was not only displayed beautifully, but everything was seasoned nicely, cooked perfectly on site, and made from the freshest ingredients! We would highly recommend Moriches caterers. Anthony and Carmen are true specialists when it comes to providing you with the best experience possible and an unforgettable wedding.

For the past five years, Moriches Caterers has provided catering for our annual Christmas Party. The latest party held this past weekend was for 40 people, and everything worked out perfectly! Anthony is a complete pro, as are his staff. The food was reasonably priced, delivered right on time, and it was absolutely delicious! We are big fans of the eggplant rollatini, but if you want to order a hero I would highly recommend the chicken cutlet hero with sweet red peppers! Whats convenient is that when the hot food is delivered, Moriches Caterers will also provide you with nice silver chafing dishes, serving utensils, and sternos to keep things heated. It always adds a nice touch, and then you can return things to Bagel Deli the next day. Ive never been disappointed with Moriches Caterers and highly recommend them! Thank you, Anthony and Carmen!

Our party of 10 thoroughly enjoyed our clambake from Moriches Catering! We wanted our out of town guests to have a true Long Island classic experience...and we were thrilled with everything! The expertly prepared lobster was especially delicious (and easy to open/eat since they were pre-cracked for us). The steamed clams and mussels were delicious in the white wine sauce. (A lot of food including potato, corn, salad and watermelon/grapes)!! Even the neatly prepared/presented plasticware with napkins and wetnaps were an impressive detail!! Delivery was perfectly on time - and presentation was better than expected. The friendly staff was professional and courteous. I will definitely order from them again to experience the high quality service and ingredients. Best Clambake weve ever experienced!!

So glad to know that Tara & Mandi hired Moriches Caterers for thier wedding, my friends had used them & the food was wonderful & creative . Anthony & I just worked on a wedding together June 14,14 @ George Weir Barn in Lloyd harbor. It was a twist on rustic, family style, open setting, his array of food choices, table settings & our floral decor all work along together to make a fairytale of Wedding that was beautiful. He did things that werent called for him to do, but being the type of vendor that his is he went the extra mile. Thats how we roll @ Elegant Designs By Joy as well. Hope we have the pleasure to work with him again....

Anthony and Carmen catered our backyard BBQ for 30 guests this past weekend in Amagansett and everything was fantastic. Chef Evan was right on time, very friendly and most importantly all the food was delicious! He even made a makeshift firepit with the charcoal embers for our guests to stay warm and make smores. Anthony was always very professional and was by far the best value you will find in the Hamptons.

We put together an Engagement Party/Surprise Wedding and Anthony helped make everything on the food end go so smoothly and STRESS-FREE. He though of things before I even did and answered questions before I even asked them. I want to thank him and his staff for the amazing food and service. People raved about the food and the servers had everything done before I could ask. It was an amazing night.

Anthony and staff catered my mothers 90th birthday in my home. First time I used a catering company. They were beyond wonderful, Anton, you were great. The food was hot, delicious and plentiful. They were so unobtrusive, yet right at hand if needed. I cant thank them or praise them enough. If you are looking for a caterer, dont look any further than Moriches Caterers.

I am as picky and detail oriented as they come and Moriches catering exceeded my expectations. The food was phenomenal and the staff was just as impressive. They catered our "I Do BBQ" for 80 people July 1, 2017 and it was amazing. Now, we are even more excited for them to cater our wedding in October!! Thank you Anthony and Carmen

Moriches hosted my company (small, 40 people) for a clambake last week and was phenomenal. Anthony was top notch, the team was great and we had an amazing time. They blew my expectations out of the water. I just cant say enough great things. Food, experience, professionalism, etc all stellar. Thanks again!
