I tried the plain bagel, muffin, chocolate croissant, danish, mixed fruits, and yogurt fruit cup with granola.- Plain Bagel: Subpar. Too chewy.- Muffin: Fluffy, moist, and tasty. This was my favorite of the things I tried.- Chocolate Croissant: Good but nothing special. Quality is comparable to supermarket-bought croissants rather than a fresh croissant from a bakery.- Danish: Too sweet so I wasn’t a fan.- Mixed Fruits: They weren’t that sweet, but you can never go wrong with fruits to balance out the heavier foods.- Yogurt Fruit Cup and Granola: The portion size was good. The yogurt was very smooth. I would have preferred plain yogurt. The granola was very crunchy and good.They have a lot of different menus to choose from for catering.

I booked Sensational Foods for my sons first holy communion this past Sunday. I had to be in church so they offered to do all the setup. I worked with Conor making the menu and he and Michaela setup the party. Everyone had a great comment on how tasty it was. I had a color theme for this party and I asked for a blue color frosting on the cupcakes all I can say is they came out perfect!!! In our house the chicken parm is known as the best we have even had.

I was looking for a caterer for a Retirement Party. Conor replied to my my response left on their website. What I thought was a very positive phone conversation about the event, did not turn out that way. He led me to believe I would receive a proposal in the mail a few days later. Nothing came. I reached back out to him to make sure it was sent and no reply. I guess he screens potential clients by event or through the phone.

Don't let the smaller company fool you - the team at Sensational Foods is amazing!

Every year I host a Thanksgiving dinner that I call Friendsgiving--no immediate relatives, no TV, no football--and it's a neighborhood tradition at this point. I want that lovely, formal, quiet, traditional meal I remember from my childhood And Sensational Foods has always done a "sensational job" in making this a reality for me and 11 friends--always both fabulous and easy on the host. Five stars no doubt.

I used Sensation Foods Catering for a baby shower I planned back in July. Their name lives up to the hype, they are sensational! I worked with Logan, who was the most patient person on the planet as I changed the menu 3 times! Each time he was helpful and quickly sent out a new invoice. He worked within my budget and made great suggestions for food to fit our brunch theme. On the day of the event, the food arrive promptly and was setup very quickly. The delivery man (who's name unfortunately slips me) was super friends and helpful. The food itself was hot and delicious. There was no left overs, the guest loved it and many asked where we got it from. Clean up was easy as everything is disposable. Would definitely use them again for my next event and I recommend you do as well!

My husband and I hired Sensational Foods to cater our wedding in August 2018. We worked mainly with Conor and he is fantastic!!! My husband and I have very different food preferences and we were looking for a caterer to provide appetizers all night (everyone's favorite part of the food at a wedding). Conor immediately told us about Sensational Foods' offering of a "standing wedding" - which included passed appetizers and food stations - exactly the laid back and fun style we were looking for our big day! We were able to choose such a great variety of options for our guests (something for everyone); a clambake station, an Asian station, a slider station, plus the most amazing appetizers: crab cakes, mac and cheese balls, lambchops, veggie spring rolls, potato latkes, and scallops wrapped in bacon. Conor even helped to ease my very traditional parents' concerns about having a standing wedding. My parents were blown away by the service and the delicious food at the tasting, where they agreed that we absolutely made the right choice to hire Sensational Foods to cater our wedding! From the very first phone call with Conor, he was amazingly attentive, provided excellent suggestions/alternates along the way to include my husband to be in every food aspect of the wedding (he has a vegan diet), handled the equipment rentals, and coordinated everything so seamlessly! The way Conor and his team interacted with the other vendors and especially our guests was unmatched! Our guests cannot stop talking about how wonderful Conor and his team were at our wedding - from the beautiful set up in the reception hall, to assisting my aunt with our homemade chuppah and aisle runner, creating a delicious menu our guests can't stop talking about (even a month later), making sure all of our guests with food restrictions had EXACTLY what they wanted to eat, and having such a positive and fun attitude throughout our wedding day - Sensational Foods is by far the best vendor we hired for our wedding - specifically due to how fabulous Conor is! A few days after the wedding we even found out about issues with other vendors that we hired. My husband and I never knew about them because of Conor, his quick thinking, and problem solving skills. We had no idea there were even any hiccups, never mind a major service issue with another vendor. Conor made sure our wedding day was perfect! Conor also went above and beyond his contracted responsibilities with setup, clean up, and coordinating all of the other vendors throughout the day. He has such a great vibe and friendly demeanor. When the photographer wasn't sure how he could get the best "cake cutting" shot, Conor gave him a few options and quickly moved the ENTIRE dessert display into the dance floor for that perfect shot for us. Our wedding was perfect - and that is mainly due to Conor and Sensational Foods!

We were initially going to go the family & friends route for our wedding reception; not necessarily to save money but we struggled to find a caterer that gave us that family feel. That all changed the moment we met the team from Sensational Foods! My wife and I attended the LGBTQ Rainbow Wedding Expo in the fall of 2017 and Sensational Foods was presenting their signature Mac & Cheese and Buffalo Chicken Mac & Cheese....Awesomeeee! (In my best Whitney Houston falsetto). We left the expo, called the very next day and our time together is now etched in history. Logan Ferraro worked with us form day 1 to our BIG day. He listened to our ideas, heard our concerns and developed a menu and budget to get us started and the brain juices flowing. If felt easy and nothing about planning a wedding for 130 people is easy. The tasting was personalized and felt like sitting in a friend's kitchen......The food was AMAZING! Our family is made up of vegans, vegetarians, carnivores and gluten free folks, and it was important that we didn't loose any of the flavor. HA - 3 weeks later and our family is still talking about the tacos and corn bread. Uncle Murphy said, "I don't like tacos but those tacos made me a fan." Oh let's not forget we had 2 dates. A wedding date and a reception date. We were married on a Thursday evening with 20 friends and family. Initially we were taking everyone out to dinner BUT following the tasting we added Sensational Foods to that event as well. Opted for delivery to our home earlier in the day with reheating instructions. BEST veggie lasagna I ever had! Thank you Logan. From the moment we met to our 2 big dates, you are as sensational as the the name states. I see your team in our future... Until next time.

The staff is fantastic and the food is Sensational! Always more then enough and plenty of paper goods and serving utensils. I highly recommend them. Connor is the best! Tell them Dot from EDC sent you!!

If I could give 10 stars - I would. We use Sensational Foods for all of our corporate events in Boston and they truly live up to their name. Everything they do for us is SENSATIONAL! From delicious buffet breakfasts for 1,000 to bountiful lunches or intimate cocktail fare - they always get it right and never seem to run out of food. An amazing feat. Particularly love their quiches, French toast, cinnamon rolls, grilled veggies and huge trays of lasagna. The staff is also gracious every time and loves to get into the spirit of a party with us. For a recent Ugly Sweater holiday event, Stacy suggested cookies decorated as ugly sweaters (fantastic!) and her staff all wore ugly sweaters while serving (thank you, Logan, and crew). Made it so fun for everyone. Cannot recommend Sensational enough for an event - large or small. You won't be disappointed!

Bake a few years back way to like 2011-12-13 in that range my ex wife Sandra and I went in. A very rude employee legit stormed out I'll talk to Sandra I forget details. Later we decided that they could do better. Our anniversary was a disaster. The food was sub par and the presentation was just awful. Trust me we complained but a $550 bill was not changed. 5 year anniversary ruined. Just thrown to the toilet. No wonder were divorced.

Words cannot express how much I love Stacy and Conor. My first phone call with Stacy, I went into the conversation thinking "I guess I'm ok having the standard wedding dinner - maybe we'll do it family style to mix it up a bit". After talking to Stacy and learning about standing weddings, I was sold. There's nothing I love more than small plates and variety and that's EXACTLY what she pitched to me. Stacy understood that I wanted people to have fun and dance, eat, and drink whenever they wanted rather than to have everyone on a schedule the entire night. We ended up having tons of passed appetizers: mini lobster rolls, chicken in waffle cones, pigs in a blanket, spring rolls - along with small plate stations: Asian takeout boxes filled with lo mein, crabcake/burger/pulled pork sliders, build your own mac & cheese bar with everything including steak tips. It was unreal and I wish I had been able to eat more of it! Stacy even went out of her way to make sure that she and her staff brought my husband and I platters during the night - total lifesaver. We used their staff for our bartenders as well and I must say that the waitstaff and bartenders were all phenomenal and so friendly. Stacy and Conor went above and beyond all of our expectations - they brought their own decorations for each station, did a layout walkthrough with us and our coordinator, and always made themselves available for every single tiny question I had throughout the process. Everyone is still raving about you guys and I could not love them anymore - I just hope that one day I can host another event where I can work with them again!

Sensational foods was amazing! Connor and his staff were truly the most helpful people throughout some confusion with our venue. They were willing to help get questions answered for us and went above and beyond what we ever imagined. They were so reliable, regardless of the time of day! The food was great and everyone loved it! I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for an amazing caterer.
