Bonbite NYC

Bonbite catered our wedding earlier this year. Kyley was very responsive and a pleasure to work with. Winston was very supportive of our desired changes and helped create a menu that we really enjoyed. The initial tasting was a fantastic way to try his food and understand his style. Everything from the flavors to the plating presentation was incredible. We had last minute changes to our guests which Bonbite helped us accommodate. They were also very helpful with our guests allergies. The day of was perfect. The staff came early and helped set up all our arrangements. Everyone complimented the food, in particular the fish. The staff made sure to save us (the couple) some of the passed appetizers which we didn't get to have, which I thought was so thoughtful. At the end of the night when the waitstaff accidentally took our personal engraved forks, they went through all the dirty utensils to retrieve it for us. Overall, a great and pleasant experience.

Bonbite was amazing! Working with them was an amazing experience for us. Before we had even met, they were excited to work with us and they worked with us to come up with a custom menu that reflected our backgrounds (British and Chinese). Kyley was always responsive and took a lot of the stress off of the preparation, asking the right questions of us and making suggestions where necessary. She was nothing but accommodating and flexible when our headcounts, needs, or decisions around different parts of the night changed. Come the day of, the guests had nothing but good things to say about the food; they also remarked how well put together the entire reception was. Kyley, Hannah, and their team really made sure that everything was covered, and made sure we were well fed as we were greeting guests at every table. :) One example is one of our vegetarian guests was pleasantly surprised that they already knew his dietary restriction before he even made the staff aware, which is a testament to how on the ball the staff was! For us, a large part of how we wanted to share our special day with our guests was communicated through food, and Bonbite made sure that was a success!

Delicious food done by a really friendly team We did tastings with a bunch of different places and I don’t think we could have found a more delicious, friendly, and accommodating team. We mainly worked with Kyley, Winston, and Amy throughout the process and they made everything as easy as possible for us. To start, we did a tasting with Kyley where the head chef Winston cooked up some dishes we had previously let him know we were interested in. All of the options sounded so delicious, it made it very difficult to narrow down our picks ;). They put together some really unique hors d'oeuvre for us like mini mac and cheese katsu sandwiches, fish and chips croquettes, and buffalo chicken silver dollars (among others!). The mains were all so good as well and were able to easily work with Winston to change the style of the beef a bit after the tasting to help perfect the taste we were looking for. I would also highly recommend the heirloom carrots with za'atar spice (they were so good!). Kyley and Amy were also super flexible in helping us find an alcohol package that best fit with our budget and what we were looking for. They suggested some places where we could purchase our own beer and wine (to help bring cost down) that we could deliver right to bonbit AND helped us come up with a specialty cocktail that was really fun tasting. The day of the wedding, Bonbite and their staff were simply amazing. Sarah and I were so busy talking to people that we almost didn’t have time to try any of the hors d'oeuvre, but one of the staff members brought us a sample tray and stayed with it to guard it from getting eaten by any one else (both our moms attempted and failed)! During and after the wedding so many people came up to us to comment on how delicious the food was and how attentive the staff was. The drink glasses were never empty :) It made us so happy to know that our friends and family were enjoying themselves and that Bonbite really helped us make that happen. Thank you so much Kyley, Winston, Amy, and the rest of the Bonbite team! If you’re looking for a caterer, you’ve found it!
