WHO WE ARE
Our family has been the culinary force behind exceptional events in Central Ohio for three generations. Maria and Tony Susi opened the Berwick in 1955 with the dream of bringing families and friends together to celebrate special occasions with delicious fresh-cooked food.
That passion for food and service has now been passed on to the younger Susi generations and we all take great pride in carrying on Maria and Tony’s legacy.

Off-Site Catering
Our off-site catering menus offer an extensive selection for breakfast, lunch and dinner. We have the ability to provide catering for ten guests to thousands of guests and we make sure the food is fresh and delicious, regardless of the event size.
To Go
If you are looking to have delicious food provided for your event, but do not want the full-service catering package, then the pickup and delivery menu is a wonderful option. We offer all of our homemade Italian goodness and many other items by the pan or by the piece.
On-Site Events
We are a full-service banquet facility, so we do not rent rooms. Our on-site banquet menus offer an extensive selection for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
