Great Experience with Sweet Basil – My (now) wife and I hired Sweet Basil to cater our engagement party in December '07. It was our first experience with hiring a caterer in NYC, and we'd heard horror stories from friends about catering services they'd used, so we didn't know what to expect. Well, Sweet Basil exceeded our hopes and made the party an affair to remember! Amy worked overtime with us to design a menu fit for the occasion (and our budget). On the big day, the quality, variety and amount of food proved to be treme... read more

I highly recommend this caterer – I've used Sweet Basil Catering three times now and they were terrific each time. We hired them to cater both of my sons' birthday parties and in December we hired them to cater my birthday dinner. My husband and I are big wine lovers, and we were just as thrilled with their wine selections as we were the food. We especially loved the goat cheese ravioli and the short ribs. The service was excellent, too. pros-great food, great service cons-nothing!

My Favorite Caterer – I have employed Sweet Basil Catering for a number of cocktail parties and each time the food, presentation, and service were outstanding. This is high praise coming from me as I consider myself a foodie and I work in a creative field where the visual apparenace of things is very important to me. I prefer simple dishes where the freshness of the ingredients makes the dish; Sweet Basil uses the highest grade of meats and vegetables. My guests always rave about the food. One surpising crowd pleaser was mus... read more

This is the best Catering Company! – My husband and I decided to have our wedding and reception at my parents apt. on Central Park West. My sister had her engagement party at their house 2 years back and Amy Aversa of Sweet Basil catered her event. Amy and her staff did the most amazing job for my sister so I knew I wanted Amy to cater my event. Amy spent lots of time helping me create a menu that would accommodate meat eaters, vegetarians, vegans and KIDS! She created a delicious and wonderful menu that my entire party of n... read more

Hippest Caterer in the City! – I had just moved to a new home when my husband asked me to host a business cocktail party for 50. I rarely use a caterer, but after hearing about Sweet Basil from a friend, and feeling overwhelmed, I decided to call. It was the best decision I ever made. Amy Aversa was calm, professional and organized. She took care of everything from the food, to the rental of glasses, ice, tables, and linens. The staff of three she brought with her were equally impressive...young, energetic, and very knowledg... read more
