Travola Catering is outstanding. We hired Jason for a client open house and the food was fresh with a nice presentation. Jason was on time and on budget. Next time we need catering.....we'll call Travola!

A friend of mine and I decided to throw a engagement party for a couple. We contacted Tavola and started the process. First, just a basic conversation about what kind of event we wanted to have. Then we started going back and forth about things we liked... things that were in season... things that went well together. The entire time Jason was a great resource. Making suggestions...raining us in when we got a little overboard. The night of the event, Jason and his crew were not only on time; but worked well with the large number of people that were there. Great food led to a great evening. The only problem we had...the staff was so friendly we wanted them to hang out with us...but they had work to do. I'll use them again in a heart beat.

I secured Tavola Catering to cater a private party in my home and the food was fantastic - Jason was able to customize the menu to what I had in mind and the fare is always fresh and local. I had never used a caterer before and it was so worth it. The 3-course meal was exceptional, and Jason does a great job of giving the party a run down of the menu beforehand. Jason and team are professional, but easygoing and a nice addition to any party/occasion! Afterwards my guests decided to throw their own dinner party just to use Tavola again. I highly recommend Tavola and I know I will use them in the future.
Pros: Customer Service, Food

Tavola Catering is terrific! I highly reccomend Jason and his team. Extremely professional with great follow up. The food is always delicious! I have used Tavola for business meetings and personal parties and it has always worked out above and beyond my expectations. They are also extremely timely, patient with questions, and they even clean up everything when done! Would highly recommend!

My husband and I have used Tavola Catering for several private dinner parties. The service, food and costs were perfect on all accounts. We highly recommend Tavola for any private dinners. The menu was customized to us with lots of help from the head chef Jason DiGiacomo. From running to Costco to get bottled water to setting and serving us top of the line appetizers and gourmet pizza for our children....that lead into the best Italian dinner a guest party of 10 could ever have. He even cleaned up our kitchen. I have also had the opportunity to work with Tavola Catering for business events as well. From 12 -500 guests. Costs are reasonable, food is great and the service is customized. I would highly recommend Tavola Catering and Jason DiGiacomo to anyone seeking catering for any private party, business function or major event and beyond.
Pros: customized, good and invested in finished product.
Cons: have not had a con yet.

Tavola continues to be top on my list for catering services. I have used Tavola to cater client meetings and personally in my home. Tavola has consistently delivered great food and impeccable service. Tavola did a wonderful job cooking for an intimate gathering of friends at our home and the food was incredible. It was fun to watch the preparation and then have the chef present to explain the meal to our guests. Our guests were most impressed as well! In the past I have spent an entire day preparing for dinners... from having to shop, prepare, cook and clean... by the end of the night I was exhausted and then never spent time with our guests. Not having to lift a finger was well worth having Tavola, not to mention I could have never come close to preparing such a meal. In a slightly different atmosphere, I have also used Tavola for catering client meetings. The food is well displayed and everything from plates to silverware is top of the line. Clients are always impressed when we have meetings over Tavola's! These meetings are always more productive and more private than trying to meet in a public restaurant where our conversations can be overheard. Tavola comes in sets up the meal and cleans up afterwards... again saving me time and money. I have also just so happened to be at a large wine tasting event where I ran in to Tavola who was catering that event. Again, the food was great and their ability to keep up with the crowd was incredible. From intimate dinner parties of ten people to client meetings of 20 to large events of 300+ people I have witnessed Tavola doing it all!
Pros: Great service, flexibility and easy to work with

We have done two parties with Jason of this catering business and he has done a fabulous job. He shows up very early to prepare and sets up a great spread. They are willing to match your needs and personally preference to a tee. They have a great attitude and are professional and dedicated to making a great impact on the event. The food it wonderful and my favorite is the stuffed mushrooms, really all the food is wonderful and there is an explosion of flavor in every bite. This last party we got desserts and they were so wonderful, not too sweet not to boring, great treats to feed your sweet tooth. This company will get you small, big any size job done with a great outcome of satisfaction!
