The T&L Difference

Award-winning food. Unforgettable service.


Every review below comes straight from real T&L / Leon's Catering clients — brides and grooms, families, and organizations who trusted us with their most important gatherings. Their words say it best: attentive maître d's, seamless coordination, and food our guests are still talking about.

We were absolutely blown away by this team! Everything ran so smoothly, and the food was incredible. Stephanie went above and beyond, and the bartenders were amazing. We could not have been happier — highly recommend for any wedding or event!

We had our wedding at the beautiful James Ward Mansion, and T&L was terrific from start to finish. Vegetable spring rolls, bacon-wrapped scallops, Asian-style beef — all fantastic. Our maître d' Jaci even helped bustle my gown. We feel so lucky!

Our Local 3005 event was truly a success. From delicious food to professional guest service reps and bartenders, every aspect exceeded expectations. A special thank you to Tom Tavalaro, whose attention to detail made the event seamless.

What a fantastic experience! They catered our small wedding reception with the "stations" option. We loved everything, and our guests raved about the food. The on-site staff were amazing, friendly, and present throughout. We wholeheartedly recommend T&L!

Highly recommend this vendor. They beautifully executed our event at the James Ward Mansion. Tom and Pam are a superb team — responsive and organized. Jaci was an amazing maître d', and we received extensive glowing reviews on the food from all our guests.

Good food makes a good wedding! Tom worked with me and made me feel taken care of from the start. We especially loved the beef wellington app and the filet of sole. People also raved about the sesame chicken and Asian station. Thank you Tom!

We used T&L for our wedding in East Stroudsburg. We can't say enough good things! Our guests raved about the food, and the staff were amazing, kind, and fun. Having a vendor you can trust so thoroughly took so much pressure off our night.

We recently used T&L for my husband's 60th birthday and could not be happier. Stephanie was communicative throughout, Stacey was a fantastic bartender, and Rob's food was delicious and beautifully plated. Our guests are still raving. We'll definitely be using T&L again!

T&L was amazing and professional to work with for my wedding. The food was absolutely delicious, and their knowledge of the venue was invaluable for set up and clean up. My wedding was a massive success, in big part thanks to T&L. Thank you so much!

T&L was great! Pam helped me decide on the menu and appetizers and walked me through the whole process. The food was great and many people commented on how good it was. The server was a joy to work with. Not one complaint here!

T&L did an amazing job with our company luncheon. This marks the second year we've used them at our company. As always, their food and service are amazing! Thank you, T&L Caterers!

I booked the Linden location for my son's Sweet 16. Everything was great from start to finish. The office staff was pleasant, and on the day the staff was amazing — professional and caring. It was clean, the food was great, and everyone enjoyed themselves. Highly recommend.
