I cannot say enough good things about the vendor. From the food to the presentation, everything was beyond perfect. Ron & his team are absolutely amazing. My guests loved the food so much & are still talking about it 3 months later. We have been told countless times it was the best wedding food they have ever had. Ron was available for all questions and concerns we had, especially during this uncertain time. His team was professional and courteous the entire event. We are looking for any excuse to have a party just so we can hire them again! If you want an out of this world meal for your wedding

My initial contact with Clambakes of CT was great, but after booking things went downhill. I was told I would be contacted a week before our event to confirm details (an at-home wedding of 20 people) and that never happened so I had to reach out. The actual food and service was extremely disappointing. Food was bland (grilled steak, salmon, and vegetables), one of the staff was not vaccinated, they disposed of grease by dumping it on our driveway/lawn, very poor timing in terms of getting the food cooked and ready to go. I had to add an extra hour with our photographer because the appetizers and

We used Clambakes of CT to cater our wedding. From the moment we contacted them with our proposal for our wedding we knew we had the right company. The Cohn family was very professional. They helped us plan the event, and provided full setup the day of our wedding. The food was phenomenal! We continue to receive compliments on our wedding meal weeks after the event. I highly recommend Clambakes of Connecticut for your wedding or large party, especially if you are doing most of the planning yourself.

Unfortunately we were not truly satisfied with our experience with Clambakes of CT. The guys who showed up were very friendly and helpful, and arrived right on time. The lobster was cooked to perfection and there was more than enough to go around. We got good reviews on the potatoes as well.
BUT, there was a lot of negative feedback as well; including some of my own observations.
The steak portions were very small and some of the pieces were very overcooked. One of the guests at my table actually complained and had to constantly sip her beverage while eating because the cut of meat was so dry.

Clambakes made my wedding, and here's why:
Note: this was an outdoor, 200 person tented wedding!
1. Leda. She was the head coordinator at my wedding. Not only did she communicate with me almost every other day leading to the wedding, it wasn't just about the food! I wish I had known earlier that clambakes actually has someone that is like a wedding planner! We bounced design ideas off each other, talked about decor, about things I would need like dumpsters etc. She was an absolute joy to work with!
2. The food. My guests plates were piled high and then a full lobster was thrown

Food was very good - there simply wasn't enough of it.
I made the mistake of telling them a day before that my numbers had dropped - we agreed that since the $$ wouldn't go down, that I would have that number of dinners provided at the end of the evening as leftovers.
This did not happen. I got a plate of mashed potatoes - and that was all.
I felt cheated - and my guests felt hungry.
