Big Green Truck Pizza 

5.0

New Haven, CT
  • Starts at $1,300

Welcome to Big Green Truck Pizza! For more than 20 years, we have delighted customers all over Connecticut with delicious pizza served in an attractive, fun atmosphere. Our specially outfitted trucks are genuine antiques equipped with wood-fired brick ovens, tables, and all the ingredients needed to bring a buffet of New Haven pizza to your backyard. We pride ourselves on the quality, variety, and convenience of our pizza, and specialize in bringing a fun, professional atmosphere to every occasion.

We had an incredible experience with Big Green Truck Pizza at our Wedding Welcome Event! Renting their pizza truck was one of the best decisions we made. The entire process was smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. The team from Big Green Truck Pizza was professional, friendly, and exceptionally accommodating. They arrived on time and set up efficiently, bringing their signature charm and enthusiasm that immediately engaged our guests. The smell of their delicious pizzas filled the air, setting the perfect tone for a fun and relaxed event. The variety of pizzas they offered was fantastic, with something to please every palate. Each slice was made with high-quality ingredients and cooked to perfection—crispy crusts, flavorful toppings, and mouthwatering cheese. The salad and gelato included made it a no brainer for us! We were looking forward to espresso and cappuccino but I don’t think they brought it to our event. But no one noticed because our guests couldn’t stop raving about how amazing the food was! They even brought gluten free crusts and made them dairy free for my MIL. The unique experience of having a pizza truck added a fun, interactive element to our event that everyone enjoyed. Big Green Truck Pizza truly elevated our welcome event, and we couldn’t be happier with their service. A huge thank you to the team for helping us kick off our wedding weekend celebrations!

Old World Pizza Truck 

5.0

New Haven, CT
  • Starts at $2,000

We started Old World Pizza Truck with our beloved old '42 Chevy, built and designed with a passion for entertaining and food in mind. Our fleet consists of four international diesel trucks, ready to serve both local and long range parties all across Connecticut, parts of New York, and Massachusetts. All trucks have basically the same equipment including powerful sound systems for those of you that like music at your affairs. They all are self sufficient with onboard generators, coolers, freezers and running water. No matter which truck is sent, the total experience is the same- great food, great music, lots of fun and unsurpassed service!

The amount of compliments I have received on the food at my wedding is too many to count! My only complaint is that I didn’t get to try more pizzas! We booked Old World Pizza Truck for dinner service and cocktail hour charcuterie and boy did they deliver. Even the skeptics (“pizza at your wedding?!”) came back to tell us what a phenomenal and unique meal it was. To quote one of my guests, “That pizza truck was genius. Did I tell you that the dessert pizza with peanut butter, jelly and bacon made my list of best things I’ve ever eaten that sounds completely disgusting?” Would book 10x over. Better than a 150 mediocre plated dinner by a mile.

We wish we could give SKBT 1000 stars! This company, the owner Karen, and her staff are ABSOULTELY incredible! For our small outdoor wedding, I am still very concerned about COVID and her staff was so considerate to keep their masks on the entire time (both inside and outside in the heat). The staff was so incredibly kind and attentive. They made me feel SO special on my day, bringing me extra appetizers and sneaking me an extra spoonful of their delicious chocolate mousse! They were so incredibly professional and offered to help with tasks that were not even in their job description (like loading up drink coolers and putting out desserts we had purchased). They truly went above and beyond! It is clear Karen is close with her staff, because they all have such a positive demeanor that was contagious and really kept things upbeat! And the food- INCREDIBLE! I am so picky when it comes to food and my husband has food allergies. We needed everything to be gluten free, and SKBT was so attentive and considerate of these restrictions. The flavor and presentation of the food was AMAZING! My husband and I ended up eating our own meal and splitting one (I am obsessed with Karen's cauliflower steak!) I was SO full from the night because everything from the appetizers, to the meal, to the desserts was impeccable. Really the most delicious food I've ever had! The night of our wedding and most of the next day, 90% of the conversation with my husband and our family was about SKBT and how incredibly delicious their food was and their amazing service. We plan on ordering from SKBT for any function we have in the future, as well as on our anniversary every year (and dinners in between!) We are sad that our wedding is over, but are SO looking forward to using SKBT again in the future. Karen is truly a gem- she is INCREDIBLY talented, is so kind, and it is clear she dedicates her all to SKBT. We are so thankful to have had this catering company for our wedding- they truly made the day that much more special and the day would not have been the same without them! Thank you Karen and your amazing staff, you really made our wedding a day we will never forget! :)

We chose Italiana Foods for our wedding in the Catskills, NY and honestly, it was one of the best decisions we made for the whole day! We started planning the menu almost a year before, and the team was just amazing from the beginning. They were so patient with me (and my endless back-and-forths about changing things!), always kind and helpful in creating the perfect menu. Coming from an Italian family, our saying has always been “go big or go home” and Italiana Foods was definitely the biggest quote we got, but every single penny was worth it. The food was absolutely delicious, beautifully prepared, and served hot and fresh all night. The waitstaff was incredible super attentive to our guests, making sure everyone was taken care of. From cocktail hour to dinner and even the dessert station, everything ran so smoothly and right on time. Even months after the wedding, people are still talking about how good the food was. That honestly means the world to me, because great food is what people remember and Italiana Foods nailed it. Highly recommend them to anyone who wants their wedding meal to be unforgettable.

On the day of the wedding, her care and attention to detail was evident in every aspect of the catering. Jackie even went the extra mile by adding our wedding date to the cheese sticks, which was such a thoughtful personal touch. She clearly puts her heart into her work, and it shows - the food was delicious and the presentation was beautiful. She also decorated the table around our wedding theme, and even included a fresh bouquet of flowers that our grandma was thrilled to take home.

The Crafted Cook 

5.0

  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves New Haven, CT

I’ve gained passion for crafting up a sharp cheese board and catching some sunshine! I grew up in a family where food was plentiful, the focal point of any gathering or celebration and knowing you would never leave hungry. My passion for food and the culture behind it began when I was 6, working in my family’s deli, and that’s when I learned why food was a necessity to a gathering, celebration or corporate event (no matter the guest count). Customers faces gleamed when they knew eggplant parm was a special, or could walk in and smell a fresh pot of sauce was being made. It's now my passion for my clients to be gleaming too.

The Crafted Cook was amazing! From start to finish, the communication to the food display was so great! We hired them for our private back yard wedding and can’t wait for future parties! We had a graze for 50 guests and there was absolutely nothing left! Months later, our guests still talk about our cocktail hour and how that was the star of the show! Run, don’t walk, to book them for any of your future parties or events! Thank you for making our day so special!
