Best (Wedding) Food Ever? (Spoiler) Yes.

This is the one review I was dreading because it's going to be hard to put into words how incredible/amazing/delicious/helpful this caterer is, but I'll try.
Let me start with Jillian, the special events manager for The Manor Tavern. She is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. Extremely responsive, extremely accommodating, and extremely friendly. She helped us plan every single part of the food experience for the wedding, conveyed exactly what we wanted to the chef (HUGE thank you to the chef and his team by the way), and answered every question we had no matter what it was about.
From the moment we walked in the door, Jillian had a huge smile on her face, had us in a private dining room away from the guests to try the food, explained every single plate to us, left us alone to try everything, and then would come back and take notes on every single plate. Now I'll preface this with saying that my wife and I are absolute food snobs, and this is where we wanted to spend most of the money because we wanted the food to blow people away. Unfortunately, the term "blow people away" doesn't have enough of a wow factor to describe how good this food is. THEY CAN COOK! Every single thing we tried was some of the best food we've ever had, and we've had food from all over the world. We're already planning the 2.5 one way trip to go back for our anniversary. We had 5 passed appetizers, 2 stationary apps, and 4 entree selections. They nailed every single one of them, there wasn't a single plate that we didn't receive some kind of compliment on! We even had to coordinate kosher meals for some of the guests and they were able to handle that no problem as well! They also adjusted one of their recipes to match one that I found because I didn't like the way they made it, and they made it way better than I ever have.
If you're still looking around for the perfect caterer, you're done, this is it.

Wonderful Experience for Rehearsal Dinner

We highly recommend the Manor Tavern for your wedding, rehearsal dinner, or event. Jillian, and every member of the staff that we worked with, was extremely friendly and helpful during each phase of our event - from helping us choose a package that was within our budget, planning the event, choosing the wine list, decorating the hall, preparing delicious food, to providing fabulous customer service the evening of our rehearsal dinner. We are pleased with every aspect of the Manor Tavern. They made the rehearsal dinner for our son and daughter-in-law the special event that we had envisioned!

Great experience, very professional and accommodating. No hiccups at all on the day of the wedding. Guests loved the food. Couldn't have asked for more.
