Bassett Caterers - Brooklyn, New York

I had a great experience with Bassett Caterers for my birthday/graduation brunch party in July of last year. As someone who likes to do my research, I first visited the establishment to speak to someone in person and of course taste the food. The manager and other staff were very pleasant. They took me to the seating area in the back to discuss my selections. The owner even gave me a meal on the house so that I could taste what they had to offer!

I ended up going with the classic hot breakfast buffet package for 125 guests and let me just say there was SO MUCH FOOD! I was busy taking pictures and interacting with others so I didn't get to taste it all, but I received good feedback from guests about the presentation, taste, and overall value. There was so much food left over that most guests left with take-home containers.

Needless to say, I would definitely use this catering service again!

I am so impressed by the tremendous job Bassett Caterers did for our Thanksgiving feast today (11/21). The food was delicious and plentiful. We had the Thanksgiving package for 25 and a few extra trays. The food arrived on time and was set up perfectly by the driver. I am super excited for our Christmas feast.

We used them for Thanksgiving and the food was amazing! My extended family was sick and had to cancel and they took care of us and changed downgraded our order. They are professionals with a family heart. Will use them for everything because the food is amazing and the service is even better.

I love Bassett. You’re talking about family tradition style love. Love like talking to people about Bassett by name when you’re in another country. The management is great. The food is an incredible value. I still dream about their chicken parm and their meatloaf. Go.

Wonderful lunch experience here. Tons of hot foods to choose from, great price and value, and the most important part, GREAT TASTE. I got some chicken marsala, mac and cheese, and sweet potatoes for lunch. Home-cooked taste and large portion for the money. Found my new lunch spot ?

Really well rounded place... Prices are pretty fair... Parking usually isnt much of a prob....
Gotta love the hot food especially! And yes the portions are good to, for all u gluttons.

We hired Bassett to cater our wedding in November 2024. Inspired by the unbelievable reviews I had read online, I decided to give them a call one year before our event, thinking that they could not possibly be as good as advertised.

From the first conversation with Frank, we knew we had found the right fit. He was so warm and genuinely happy to be part of the planning for our event. He was conscious of our budget and transparent about his pricing (which is extremely reasonable) from the very beginning.

Frank was a joy to work with. Basset’s decades of experience shined through. He gave us plenty of advice to ensure that the event would run perfectly, but he was not set in his own ways—he did everything he could to bring our ideas to life. We went back and forth several times to set our tables in a way that we wanted and yet worked for his service; we changed the typical order of food; and we even made specialty cocktails. He was very open to all of these decisions.

On the day of the wedding, Frank and his team executed to perfection. When our guests (150) entered the venue, they were greeted with an abundance of delicious appetizers from the very first minute. No one was ever hungry! Dinner, which we chose to serve family style, was also delicious, and many, many of our guests remarked how good the food was. Notwithstanding the guests' late arrival due to traffic, everything was served on time, helping the flow of the evening go perfectly.

We have heard from basically everyone (our wedding coordinator, the venue manager, etc) about how great Frank was to work with. He did all the little things with such generosity, like providing meals for our other vendors, ensuring that food was not wasted after the event, and providing a dessert we requested even though it was not part of his normal offering.

If you are thinking of hiring Frank and Bassett for your wedding or other event, do it! Thank you Frank!
