Maestro’s Caterers

I attended a party here twice (Both for a sweet 16.) The first time was ok, but the staff was horrible. My second time here is where the fun begins. The stuff was even worst than the first time, completely unprofessional, they have no manners and no proper training. They walk around with attitudes. I was sitting at the main table and the cups were never bussed up, about 20 empty cups till the end of the night, the soda pitchers were only filled once. This is where it gets amazing, there was about 15 people over than paid for but the hostess didn’t have the money to pay it that night after having to purchase many things that day for the party. The Owner told them no one will be eating till it is paid which is completely unprofessional, as a company you don’t want to make that impression to 125 guest because you are money hungry, you have a contract with these people, make another one and have them pay the remaining balance in the next few days. If they chose not to pay then you take them to court, thats the proper way to do it. You don’t go and ruin a child’s night and not feed anyone. Party started at 7, no one ate till after 10:30 and the party ended at 12. This is not the place to have any party! The wait staff is horrible, the owners truly don’t care to make your night special. The waiters slammed plates during speeches, rolled eyes, singed and dance. We don’t mind waiters singing and dancing if you do your job, but if you are not doing your job and partying, then something is wrong. If you want a party on the budget, go to Kismet Caters which is not to far from Maestros! Its amazing there. If you really want a memorable event, go to the Surf Club in New Rochelle! Wait staff is amazing, the owners do everything they can to make your night special. Bottom line is Maestros is a business that should be shut down. Food is ok, cant complain when you consider how bad their hall is. Wait staff sucks, owners are rude. Place is ugly.

If you ever go to this place please! Don’t let the owner fool you like he did to me! He made me pay over the amount I needed.
First off!
If u know u might have 260ppl coming
And you have 30 tables because you can’t have a mixture of family with waxy mother at the same table just because they don’t get along well.
Don’t let them tell you that u have 30 tables witch is 300 people at 10 ppl a table!
Don’t go by the number of tables! Go by the number you have and deduct 40 people!
They will be ready for more people! Don’t let them fool you!
They fooled me good and I forked over a lot of money that I could have used for my honey moon.
Please! Email me if u have any question on how not to be fooled by them!

We had a 50^th Birthday party here… The food was very bad! The cocktail hour was more like cocktail half hour (they cut the cocktail hour short) and a lot of guest were complaining that they did not get any H’oderves (they pinched on the H’oderves). It seems like a common theme with them because these are the same owners for Eastwood Manor and they did the same thing when I attended a wedding there.
We didn’t get what was promised in the contract agreement and on top of that they changed the event room at the last minute. So pissed! Because this messed up the seating chart. I am currently looking for a venue for a Sweet Sixteen and I will never go back to this place again! Maestro made a negative lasting impression that I will never forget!!! I will give no stars!!! The guy who we dealt with was named Rich.

No Good!
Maestros don’t have tricks up their sleeves!!!

I had my engagement party here on March 7^th, 2015 and it was seriously a great party. From the food to the service and the ambiance in the Pavilion Room every thing was top notch. I have to say the reviews on Unilocal made me nervous, but all my anxiety was eased on my initial meeting with Vinny and Billy. They made sure all my needs were met before and during the party.
We had a cocktail hour that was great, appetizers and drinks were being passed around as people were coming into the party. Then we had family style hot and cold antipasto served. There was no shortage of food as the pasta, salad and main course was served.
The service was impeccable for not only me, but my guests as well. I got so many compliments on the food and service. People felt like they were really taken care of. The matre D who took care of us was great. He led the party seamlessly & made sure my fiancé and I were taken care of.
The best part of this place is the great prices. Compared to other venues in the area, this place cannot be beat.
I would absolutely recommend Maestros for a great party!

I would like to thank Vinny & his team for making my daughter’s Sweet 16 party a success! The food, lighting, and atmosphere is a result of all their hard work in preparation for this special day! I highly recommend Maestro’s Caterer’s for all Special Events!!!

Only one thing comes to mind: Kitchen Nightmares.
The food was disappointing. The waiters need more training.

This service is incredible. We’ve had just about everything on the menu and we couldn’t find something we didn’t love. I would recommend these guys over anyone else in the area. Keep it up!

This family owned establishment is very racist and rude towards the vendors… I was very displeased with the service…

Two stars is a courtesy. I thought they were joking about the pizza bagels until a gentleman in a very poorly fitted, unadjusted tuxedo put one on my plate.
The venue itself is rather nice save for the billions of mirrors, plastic flowers and lateral party lights maybe a foot to a foot in a half above eye level. We had someone with us who has sensitivity to strobes, but it bothered everyone just the same that we were taking turns hiding behind each other to not catch a headache from the flashing lights in our eyes.
The dj also couldn’t stop playing reggae and reggaeton from the early 90’s for a sweet 16 and looked like he hates the party the most.
Having food served to me is nice, having it served by a girl with her billowy curls hanging over the sub-​par emotionless food was depressing. I wish served by the bald bartender that we tipped generously in advance. He made the cheap whiskey acceptable. Even though he didn’t know what «neat» means and I stopped him 3 times from putting ice in my glass.
The real coke was at the bar, the generic stuff was in pitchers poured clearly from a 3 liter bottle in a plastic pitcher.
After the awful food, there was fondue with way too much vegetable oil in the chocolate and Sundae Staton with cake sprinkles, cherries out of a jar, no nuts and one can of whipped cream for a party of 60 – 70 people (cheaped out again).
The weirdest part of that whole experience was that during the father and daughter dance, 3 waiters walked in a circle around them holding metallic bowls of fire (don’t know what that was about…)

Just had my wedding there on Friday the 29^th of November. Amazing! Our guests loved the food and everyone just loved maestros in general. During the whole process we dealt with Vinny and Bill. Both are very professional and Bill gave us a great price and Vinny is just the coolest nicest guy there is. Our party was a hit and that was in no small part due to their staff and the great service they provided. Our maitre d was awesome and so were the bartenders and all the waiters and waitresses. Book this place for your next event!

I went here for a work retirement party, it was about 200 people. I was really creeped out by the bright lights in the «cocktail hour» room. Perhaps because I wanted to hide and avoid various co-​workers, but at 7pm, I felt like I had a spotlight on me the whole time. Weird.
This place is a typical cheesy place that all the surrounding schools have their proms at. I hope people don’t get married here… but I am probably, and unfortunately, mistaken about that. Nothing has changed in that establishment since approximately 1982.
The staff was fine, they dropped large stacks of plates NUMEROUS times while there were speeches being made at the event, so that was a bit annoying.
I’m going to end this review now because it feels pointless. The place is where people go to prom. Of course the food is bland and they stuff random sloppy messes inside their chicken dish, of course the decorations are out-​dated, and the place was cheesy. You all should know this and would expect this if you saw the place. No surprises.
Oh and the dance floor was small.

I’ve been here twice for a Sweet 16 and a Wedding and honestly both times the place was very nice, food good and drinks good.
Staff was nice as well both times I’ve been here. I enjoyed myself.

MESSAGE TO ALL BRIDES: to all the brides out there contemplating whether to have their wedding reception here I would suggest you go somewhere else.
This place is disgusting, went to a wedding here back in April and it left much to be desired. I understand needing to be mindful of cost and trying to find something that fits your budget but I don’t understand why anyone would want to have a wedding reception here of all places? The place was filthy, I could smell the stench of the bathroom as soon as I walked in the place as it’s right there when you enter the place, the walls were dirty there was a cubby hole in back of where she had her cake that looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in a long time. The chair covers were filthy and not to mention they had holes and stains on them. How do you see stains and holes in your chair covers and still put them on the chairs? Do you realize you are hosting a wedding??? How do you not order new linen when you see the linen you have on hand is not suitable anymore? The floors were also filthy with gum stuck in the rug and the food was horrible. For cocktail hour they didn’t have separate plates for anything, they kept coming around the table and putting food on top of other food (ie. they put fruit on top of the appetizer I already had on my plate) on top of that they were cheap appetizers that you can find at BJ’s/Costco (bagel bites??? seriously??), the meal was horrible some at my table got a huge piece of steak that looked like they cut the butt off a cow and was barely edible, the chicken that came with rice was a surprise — literally — they left people wondering where the side of rice was that was mentioned on the menu and then pointed out that it was «stuffed» inside the chicken breast. some other people decided to play safe and order chicken fingers and french fries easy right? well they didn’t get their chicken fingers and french fries until after the main entrees were served and when they came it looked like they went across the street and ordered it from the local chicken spot. When guest asked for ketchup they gave them packets solidifying my impression that they got it from the local chicken spot. This place seems like its used for sweet sixteen parties and the like as there were 2 of them going on at the same time as wedding reception. I personally would not want a sweet sixteen, a baby shower or any other event at this place.
The only good thing I can say about the place is the staff is «super» nice and helpful, if I could give rating on that alone it would be 5 stars all the way but they really need to redo this place with a serious makeover all around.

This place sucks. Maestros sucks… period. I would give it no stars, but I feel bad because of the staff. The food is horrible and its all frozen food. I am serious, the food is all Microwave. Please, do your research before booking this place for parties, they charge so much money and they do not pay their staff enough. I had a party here and it was the worst service you can ever have. Please, and I am serious, do not book this place because you will regret it. Maestros is a fake restaurant with no respect to their workers and customers. If you want a location I suggest try another place, but not Maestros or Eastwood Manor.

They serve you microwaved food in the masses. Probably straight from Costco, too. Bagel bites as an appetizer? And not even cooked properly… No thanks!

My husband I had our daughter’s wedding there and we thought it was great, the place was very pretty they have four party rooms one a grand ball room. The food was great, but could have been a little warmer and the bar could have had more variety such as cognacs not sure if those might have been more. Rich and the staff were very friendly and helpful. I thought what you got for the price you can’t beat it, you would not get the same in manhattan. I would definitely recommend this place.

I went for a conference for about 1,000 people. The décor inside and out is in serious need of an update… very lame and outdated (think mid to late 80’s.)
The rooms, 3 large party rooms are nicely sized.
However, the food tastes straight from the freezer section of your local bodega. I get that they are serving lots of people, but there is no excuse for the food to be so nasty and with no taste.
Thank God I the conference was free. I’d be pissed if I had to pay for that food.

I went to an 8^th grade prom here on Wednesday night.
Yes, really.
No, it wasn’t to find a girlfriend.*
Yes, there was a smoke machine.
No, I did not get beat up by 14 year old girls. (But they threatened.)
Yes, I was terrified.
No, the chicken parmesan wasn’t very good.
Yes, the rat tail appears to be making a comeback.
No, the plantains weren’t ripe.
Yes, the USA will win tomorrow.**
No, the green beans were not canned. But they may as well have been.
Yes, the baked ziti was the best bet.
No, I am apparently not up on popular music.
Yes, the bread was stale.
No, I will not be going back.
You ask too many questions.

**No, this doesn’t really have much to do with anything. But they will.

I agree with the previous review, it is a factory. However, its clean and I did alot of research before booking it for my college graduation party and the price I got including open bar is unheard of. The food ranges from bland to good, with the Steak and Viennese displays as the standouts. They have chair sashes (chair covers are included) and napkins in every color. They upgraded my room, which was a good surprise and they set up my cake beautifully and I didn’t even give them instructions on this. The décor is very «old-​school» and the statues on the façade are kind of cheesey, but at the end of the day my guests enjoyed themselves, and so did I.
