    Bacio was wonderful!

    Bacio catered my bridal shower and it was a wonderful experience! Chef Robert was helpful in choosing the menu and easy to work with. The food and prices were great! And the staff hired to work our party, Christina, was amazing! She went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly, food was always out and replenished when needed, the space was cleaned up, and everything was packed away by the time we were wrapping up the event. We will definitely be calling on Bacio again for our future parties!

    We are so grateful for your review and happy that you enjoyed yourself. We wish you all the best in marriage and in life!

    Delicious!

    Thank you Chef Rob! My husband had a party for me, he ordered your delicious food. I think this is probably the 5th time we have had Bacio at our events, it's always a crowd pleaser. We had cheesesteak eggrolls, meatballs, flatbreads, tortellini, chicken parmesan sandwiches and more. If you don't want to cook but you want home cooking check out Bacio!

    Bacio Kitchen + Catering's reply:

    Thank you, Laura for the 5 star review!! It is always a pleasure working with you. Looking forward to the next event.

    Bacio treated us like family

    I just got married on Saturday, and Bacio did the food for it. I've had his food before, and been to weddings he's catered, which is why when it came time for me to find my caterer, there was no other option. I straight up selected my dinner venue based on who would let me bring Chef Robert and Bacio Catering with me. And neither I, nor my guests, were in any way disappointed by this choice.
    The food was incredible. All night, and the next day, I was hearing from my guests how much they loved the food. My husband and I have leftovers to eat during our honeymoon and we're SO happy about it!!!
    But beyond the food itself, Chef was amazing. He's a consummate professional, always on top of things, always on the ball and ready to get the job done. I knew I could count on him to make my menu happen, no questions asked. We collaborated on a custom menu with everything we wanted, and he was always so upbeat and positive during the process. Up front about costs, flexible and totally able to work with me, he personalized this menu to my husband's and my tastes, worked around my guests' dietary restrictions-- all without ever making me feel like I was asking too much. Every second of the way, he was excited to work on my wedding.
    And his staff!! The staff members we had just absolutely made it happen. Professional and on top of things from start to finish. The setup looked incredible, they were on top of our timeline, they rolled with the punches when we were late, gave us 110% the whole night.
    Bacio catering treated me like family -- and the family you actually like and want to see again!! I already have dates planned with my husband (yay we're married!!!), my maid of honor, my mom, and my dad who will have to come back into town for this, to get food from Bacio's restaurant so we can eat with him again.
    150/10, if I could give more stars I would. Go with Bacio. You will not regret it.

    Professionalism at it’s finest

    Bacio was our wedding caterer on October 7th and Chef Robert and his staff went above and beyond for us! They were so easy to work with, incredibly helpful, professional and fun! The entire wedding planning period was so easy because of Chef Robert’s expertise - we did not worry about a thing! I truthfully cannot recommend anyone higher and will be using them for our events in the future for sure!! From the bottom on our hearts, a huge thank you to Chef Robert, Brandon and the rest of the Bacio staff!!

    Bacio Kitchen + Catering's reply:

    Thank you for the fantastic review! It was fun bringing your vision to life and you both were a pleasure to work with. We wish you the best and hope to see you soon.

    Bacio’s Catering

    Chef Robert prepared an array of foods for our wedding, from filet to chicken tenders and everything in between. Our guests enjoyed everything, we enjoyed everything; absolutely delicious! Our guests ranged from 1 to 70 something and every last item on our buffet was amazing. He even prepared a gf meal and 2 non-dairy meals for guests with allergies. His servers were prompt, professional, fun, and super-efficient. I will definitely use Bacio in the future.

    Bacio Kitchen + Catering's reply:

    It was our pleasure working with you and we are honored to have celebrated your special day! Best wishes from the Bacio Team.

    Fantastic Caterer!

    I reached out to Chef Robert at Bacio at the last minute for catering for 20 people. He could not have been more accommodating of my needs. He helped me create a delicious menu that accommodated not only my budget, but also several specific dietary needs. And so much food! I absolutely recommend them for all of your catering needs.

    Chef Robert and his team at Bacio Catering are absolutely incredible! When my husband and I were searching for a caterer, we worried that we would never find someone that could pull off what we wanted. Chef Robert knocked it it out of the park! Every one of our guests absolutely LOVED the food, which is no small feat given their wide variety of tastes and dietary restrictions. Many people came up to my husband and I during the reception to tell us how everything was delicious, and we saw many more return to the stations for seconds (and thirds!).

    While we loved how everything turned out, my husband and I also absolutely loved working with Chef Robert throughout the process. Right from the start, Chef Robert made and effort to get to know me and my husband, and he designed a menu with foods representing different parts of our relationship. It was wonderful to not only be able to share delicious food with our family and friends, but a part of our story as well. Chef Robert's staff was professional, polite, and attentive and did an excellent job of making sure we had everything we needed on our day.

    We wholeheartedly recommend Chef Robert and his team at Bacio Catering!

    Don't hesitate to go with Bacio

    Bacio Catering and Market in Palmyra recently catered our 2021 Christmas Party for approximately 50 people. The event was a huge success, in large part due to Bacio Catering. The buffet included salad, two pasta selections, chicken and pork entrées, and everything was fresh and delicious. Prior to dinner, there was a wide array of mouth-watering appetizers that everyone really enjoyed.

    All in all, Bacio exceeded our expectations in terms of how excellent the food was, and planning the event with Bacio management was easy!! Chef Robert is very accessible and responsive to your requests. He makes it easy and goes out of his way for every customer. If you are looking to cater an event, your search should end here.

    Bacio Kitchen + Catering's reply:

    Thank you for the wonderful review! We take a lot of pride in our work and it makes us feel good when it is recognized. Merry Christmas and we will see you in the new year!

    Outstanding!

    Arguably the best decision my wife and I made while planning our wedding was bringing on Chef Robert as our caterer. He and his team truly go above and beyond at every step of the process. Instead of offering a set selection of food options, he takes the time to get to know the couples. He then builds a customized menu which is tailored to the tastes and preferences of both the bride and groom. His preparation is only exceeded by his execution. Chef Robert and his team were both timely and efficient in their setup and breakdown. The time in between was spent providing first class service and tackling the inevitable issues head-on. Lastly, but certainly not least, Chef Robert’s food was nothing short of sensational. If we planned our wedding 1,000 more times, we would choose Chef Robert and his Bacio’s staff every time.

    Chef Robert was our HERO!

    Chef Robert and his crew at Bacio are so wonderful! We had many issues leading up to our wedding due to COVID, from postponing the date twice, having to change our entire menu 2 weeks prior to the wedding due to new restrictions, and the tent for our outdoor reception being taken down the night before because of last minute permit issues. Chef Robert really came through for us. He was so helpful with making the right decisions, accommodating all of our last-minute issues by being SO flexible, and supporting us during the chaos by always being responsive, day and night. He was willing to do anything to make our day perfect, and it truly was! Our wedding day would not have been the perfect day that it was without Chef Robert and his amazing staff!

    Thank you so much Amanda! We do our best and it was our pleasure working with you. Congratulations again!

    Amazing chef’s tasting experience!

    What an amazing dining experience by Chef Robert and his team! The ten of us did the chef’s tasting at the restaurant. The whole experience from start to finish was top notch. Once we had a date set, Chef Robert called to get info on the group; likes, dislikes, allergies etc. Then, he went back and created this delicious six-course menu:

    First Course -Antipasto
    Second Course -Baked Brie Strudel with fig jam, baby arugula and white truffle honey
    Third Course- Colossal Stuffed Shrimp served on a bed of fresh fettuccine pasta tossed in a sun-dried tomato-pesto cream sauce
    Fourth Course-Oreganata-Crusted Fillet of Baramundi sautéed in a tomato-caper scampi sauce over spinach risotto
    Fifth Course-Peppercorn Crusted Medallion of Filet Mignon topped with Gorgonzola crust, balsamic-roasted onion and mushroom sauce
    Sixth Course-Bacio Dessert Sampler

    The portions were generous and we were so full by the end. Thank you, Chef Robert, for this wonderful experience. Can’t wait to plan the next tasting.

    Backyard Wedding

    Due to COVID, we opted for a small backyard wedding at home instead. Despite this added stress and last minute changes, Bacio’s made our life a whole lot easier. Chef Robert was so accommodating and easy to work with. His staff were all super personable and great at their jobs. To boot, all the food was delicious with honestly nothing being subpar. I would highly recommend using Bacio Kitchen + Catering for any event and cannot stress enough how thrilled we were with how everything turned out!!

    Excellent from the start!

    We got really lucky when we chose Bacio and Olive Street to help with our wedding. 30 guests, back yard... Could have been a bit redneck... But with south jersey party rental tents, and those two, it went over like something you'd see on TV. Our guests couldn't stop complimenting us about how nice it was! Chef Rob was involved throughout, and took the time to help us plan how much food and what dishes and all that detail stuff. Highly highly recommend all 3 of these companies. Thank you Rob!

    Bacio: great food and service

    We used Bacio for my sons backyard wedding that got changed due to Covid. Chef Robert was a pleasure to work with and made everything so easy. The wedding day was wonderful partly due to the fantastic staff that worked so hard to make this day special and seamless. The food was great and the service was excellent. Kudos to chef Shawn, Alysha and Brandon who did a fantastic job feeding and serving all our guests. They were so accommodating and so kind we couldn’t have asked for anything more. Thanks again to Bacio for making this day so memorable. I would highly recommend them!!

    We can’t imagine a better caterer

    My husband and I found Bacio Catering and Chef Robert by attending our friends wedding back in August. We were amazed at how wonderful the food was and how hard he and his team worked, so it was a no brainer to book him for our wedding. He came out to our house to help us plan the floor plan and he had great ideas about the layout that we didn’t think about. He even drove back to us on the night of the rehearsal to help with setup and take a few things off my plate. The day of, he made some things fresh on site which is AMAZING. He was so sweet and offered a quite bite to anyone who popped into the kitchen and even made me a plate of apps before the ceremony after hearing I was hungry. Our friends and family raved about the food and some even came back the day after to help us eat the leftovers! Something that my husband and I really liked was that Chef Robert made a point to grab us during the reception and had us eat a plate while it was still hot. Now our families are trying to figure out when we can visit the restaurant so we can have more of his food!!

    Bacio Rocks!

    Simply said, Chef Robert and his skilled staff at Bacio, pay attention to every detail at your event. The food is excellent..fresh and tasty. So you don't have to worry, and you can enjoy your wedding guests as they enjoy your wedding. What a great situation!

    Graduation party

    Bacio’s catered my daughter’s graduation party. The food was excellent as were the servers, Alicia and Jonny. They were wonderful and assisted in so many ways to ensure that the party ran smoothly and we were able to enjoy our guests and the party!
