I grew up on Long Island and my first job, at 15, was in a local deli store, where I worked throughout high school. That's when my love for food preparation began. After graduation, I enrolled in Johnson & Wales Culinary School in the two year program. Following that I then worked as an AuPair and a waitress for a few years while trying to find a way to fulfill my dream of, one day, owning my own catering business. We hit it off immediately, got married, pooled our resources and purchased The Culinary Studio from Mike.
The Culinary Studio has been one of the most praised catering companies across Long Island and throughout New York City for over 30 years, working with only trusted and preferred vendors. As a full-service catering company in Long Island, NY, we offer tailor-made menus for any occasion; as your on-premise caterer, we guarantee an event that will be successful and memorable.

Delicious meals for vegans and meat eaters. Have tried almost everything and repeat buy most of them. Staff is friendly and efficient, and prices are in line with other prepared food services. The only negative mark is that there are no dates on the pre packaged vegan meals. I fill my refrigerator and if things get pushed to the back there is no way to know if it is still safe to eat. Have mentioned it to staff but nothing changed. Worth a visit for sure!

Mary and Justin catered my wedding of 100 people and did an amazing job! It was an outdoor tent wedding but the food was served hot and plentiful. They were very involved in the menu planning and rentals which was very helpful since a lot goes into it. They were upfront about all costs and stuck to their prices even though costs went up during covid.

We rescheduled 4 times and had 1 venue change but they stuck with us every step of the way (thanks covid). Other vendors we dealt with were not so gracious or understanding. After the event, they even packaged up all our leftovers for us which we really appreciated. They were well staffed the day of and the whole event was perfect! They really went above and beyond thorough out the entire process. Thanks again Mary and Justin!

I attended a private party for a vow renewal that was catered by Culinary Studio and was absolutely wowed! The food was by far the best that I have had at a catered event. Normally I find catered food tasteless and a bit overdone, but everything at this party tasted fresh and was so different than the normal fare. The server that was there for the party was exceptional.

She met every guests need and had a smile on her face the entire time. She really seemed to enjoy her job. I can honestly say that Culinary Studio put the wow factor on this event!

Love the culinary studio. Great selection, excellent food. Love the vegan options even tho I'm a non vegan. One option is better than the next.

The elegant shower brunch I planned looked like sloppy takeout on disposable plastic platters. The worst food presentation I've ever seen from a caterer. Absolutely no effort was to made to present the food in an attractive way. When I spoke to the owner ahead of time about wanting to make sure nothing would come on plastic she said arrogantly "Oh no we wouldn't do that, this is culinary studios.

Everything will be on ceramic platers or in baskets." Today when I called to tell her that absolutely everything came on plastic she had no excuse and started yelling that I'm a difficult customer. In addition they tried to not bring the coffee urns they promised in the contract and told me to get fewer tables than I needed for their food which left me without the appropriate tables and linens.

They portray themselves to be high end caterers - in fact they are unprofessional, amateurish and unethical. It's hard to believe they have any positive reviews it really makes me question the veracity of them.

My family has used The Culinary Studio in Huntington for many years. During that time, we have hosted countless events and parties. The customer service, attention to detail, & overall professionalism we have experienced has ALWAYS been second to none. I have gotten to know both Mary and Justin (owners) over the years and they are the kindest and most thoughtful people I have ever worked with. We feel fortunate to have such an awesome, family-owned & operated company in our town!

I have used The Culinary Studio for 2 family parties. The first was my daughter's Sweet 16 and the second was my husband and I renewed our wedding vows. Both celebrations were fabulous. The food - from the appetizers to desserts - were all a huge hit. It was perfectly seasoned, served with the presentation flare of a five-star restaurant. Waitress staff was also provided who were knowledgable of the menu being served and tirelessly worked the whole party. I would highly recommend The Culinary Studio for your next party. The food and the service does not disappoint.

The Culinary Studio delivered fabulous food and service for our backyard engagement party! The 55 guests raved about the delicious food and the service was amazing. Their staff handled everything with professionalism, ease and kindness! They left my kitchen spotless and all of the leftover food packaged and refrigerated. Thank you Mary, Justin and team! We highly recommend!

This past weekend we catered a surprise B'day party for my wife. Mary and team were terrific. Food was outstanding, all our guests raved about how delicious it was and what a great combination of dishes. The team of 5 (including a bar tender) that worked the party were very professional and stayed through clean up, they even packed up the leftovers for us. Really a job well done. My family has used Culinary Studio for two previous occasions and we'll use them in the future, they are excellent.

Culinary led by Mary, Justin, and their whole team, did an absolutely amazing job on the catering and planning for our wedding. From start to finish they were wonderful to work with, and we could not have been more pleased with the quality of the food and service. We would recommend them to anyone for any event - they really made our day more special. Every guest has said it was the best wedding food they ever had and it was better than Michelin star venues they have been to.

My mom threw my baby shower at her home this past weekend. During the planning process we reached out to the world of Facebook for recommendations. We heard the culinary studio mentioned multiple times so we. went with them. We are so glad we did. The food was incredible. The staff was perfect and not overbearing at all. They maybe had one or two questions for us at the beginning and then let my mom and I just enjoy the party.

Everyone raved about the quality of the food, and they were right, it was delicious. When they were done the leftovers were packed away and ready for us to continue to enjoy the next day. Thank you for making my shower a day I will never forget.

This was our first experience with The Culinary Studio, but will definitely not be our last, and certainly our only! We had decided to get married and needed a caterer for anywhere from 60 to 100 people. We. made a call to another caterer who called us back four days later. Too long for our liking. That same day, a busy Saturday at lunchtime, we walked into The Culinary Studio, and Mary came to sit down with us at their wedding consultation area.

Never once did she make us feel like she was busy, or that it would have been better to make an appointment. She treated us like we were her only concern. We knew right then, we had found our caterer. Mary had worked with us to adjust the menu to not.
