Testimonials



“I’d like to take this opportunity to express our heartfelt thanks and gratitude for the A+ job you did for our now famous 2nd Annual Pig Roast. The compliments we are still receiving from our 100+ guests about the PIG are overwhelming! From the second you pulled in the driveway everything was better than we could have imagined – from the appearance – the smell – the unbelievable flavor – the homemade sauces – your presentation and your added help … you really went above & beyond! I cannot begin to tell you how much time, money and worry you saved us both.”

“The word that best describes our summer bbq catered by you is ‘perfect’! I was impressed when I met you by your professionalism and help you provided, but I never realized that a barbecue could be so imaginative. Everyone loved the summer pizzas that you made on the grill!! What a novel idea and so much fun. The Thai kabobs were a big hit too. Everything you suggested was great. Everyone loved everything. We look forward to calling you for our next gathering.”

“Had to tell you how thrilled my friend was with the job you did catering her wedding. The food was excellent and the idea of having many grills going to cook different things was great. The beef was extraordinary, the chicken moist and tasty, the ribs were finger lickin good, the pasta was addictive and the grilled veggies were a treat. Your desserts were as heavenly too. It was a perfect outdoor wedding with perfect food. Good job!”

“You didn’t deceive! The menu for our dinner party was as wonderful as you described. The shrimp creole was the best we’ve ever tasted and you’ve spoiled us with your tiramisu. We’ll never order it out again! We’ll just have to call you when we want it…and we will! The servers were great too. Your entire group is a class act! Thank you.”

“Thank you for the kind words. The services you provided for our special wedding celebration were completed to our satisfaction. As our event was staged outside during a heat wave in August with a heat index of over 100 degrees, you kept your cool and handled everything very professionally. Kudos to you and your helpful and pleasant staff. Everyone I spoke to after the celebration has praise for the quality of the food and the gigantic portions. No one went hungry that night! Sandy and I are very pleased and would have no issues with recommending you to others needing catering services. I liked the fact that you were local in this area and very responsive and diligent to our needs. Both of you were very accommodating to our suggestions and your ideas also helped make the event a success.”

“Sit back and relax. That should be Dave’s motto. My daughters barbecue graduation party at the Ocean. Township pool center was a huge success, thanks to Dave. It was the first affair of many, I hosted, were I could actually sit and talk to my guests. Dave, the curly fries were a big hit with the kids (big and small). The food was fresh and cooked to perfection. Everybody was impressed. Thanks again.”

“Dear David and Regina,
Thank you so much for catering my wedding. You did a fantastic job from start to finish. I thought that this little note might help other people planning an event know what a great Catering company they would be hiring if they chose yours and they best way I could do that was by telling my story.

My finance and I had gotten engaged and decided that we wanted to get married in a couple of months. We had been together for six years and wanted to do something very casual. We thought of a Luau since my childhood dream was to get married in Hawaii, however, my finace has four children and we could not afford to take us all, so that was out. I started searching the web for places down the Jersey shore that might be able to accomodate us and the simple gathering that we wanted.

I came across a website for DRJ Catering and they had the perfect Luau package. I called and spoke with Daivd. Let me just stop the story here for a second to tell you, he is the BEST! Okay, back to the story. So I talked with him for awhile and we talked about food and what would be included in the package and I told him that I would get back to him because I was looking for a house to rent out to have the wedding and reception.

A few weeks later he called to follow up with me and I told him I wasn’t sure what I was going to do, because everyone that I had contacted would not rent out their homes for a wedding and I might have to go somewhere else. I told him I would let him know.

David then went above and beyond his job by helping me find a place that would allow a wedding there. It was a Motel in Pt Pleasant that had a gorgoeus patio, a heated pool and the beach right there. I was estatic and my finance and I went to check it out and speak with the owner.

From there we changed the menu to a barbecue feast and we discussed all the logistics. David was there for me throughout the whole process. Any questions or concerns he was always a phone call away and never made me feel as if my questions were stupid or that I was annoying him (You could not believe how many people in that line of business act as if they are doing you a favor for catering your event). David was professional and friendly the whole way through.

David and Regina along with one of their employees came to set up nice and early the day of the event. Everything they said would be there was there. They helped us by renting a tent(Since our wedding was right on the beach), tables and chairs. We did not have to worry about a thing.

I hope this letter proves how grateful I am to the wonderful job the DRJ Catering did for us. Thanks again you all made our day so very special.”

“Thank you so much for helping to make the graduation party a success. We were excited about having a pig roast for 100 people and actually watching the pig cook in the back yard. It was so cool! One of the most impressive parts for everyone was watching you take the pig off the spit and watching you carve it while you explained what each section of meat was. But the best part was eating it! You are a master! Of course everything else was delicious too and a perfect accompaniment to the pork. Everyone on your staff was professional and friendly and it was a pleasure having you as part of our celebration. Thank you so much”!
