Testimonials

“It is always a pleasure to work with Karen Schloss and her team! They recently facilitated a perfectly orchestrated event. We appreciated their success at recruiting several influential writers to cover the dinner and look forward to future opportunities to partner.”

Sharon Sevrens | Amanti Vino
Morristown and Montclair

“Behind every great man is a great woman, and in my case I’m fortunate to have three. Karen, Byrne and Lauren at DSC have been with me for nearly 10 years, and have been an amazing part of my growth and success. They’ve given Samba and me continuous support, guidance and of course great media coverage, and I’m so grateful to have them on my team.”

Ilson Goncalves | Executive Chef/
Owner, Samba Montclair

“They were great to work with. Not only did they get people to take a fresh look at us, they helped us stay on task and not get derailed by the everyday problems that are a regular occurrence in the restaurant world.”

It’s been really great to work with one firm on all aspects of marketing. You know what I like best? I believe in listening to the experts, and DSC is the expert in communications and PR!”

SHAUN MEHTANI | Mehtani Restaurant Group

“They were able to get our message out in ways that we were definitely not able to do on our own. They kept us focused on our message and then did the leg-work that got results. We’re very happy.” 

Francis Schott | Stage Left Steakhouse & Catherine Lombardi

“DSC is the best of the best at what they do. Karen and her team do an excellent job handling the needs of their clients and anticipating the needs of the media. Every interaction is thoroughly professional — and usually fun.”

Ken Schlager | Former Editor, New Jersey Monthly

“When Modern Restaurant Management (MRM) was starting up … I reached out to Diaz • Schloss Communications because I knew they were in-the-know experts who had the ability to connect us with New Jersey restaurant industry leaders. The team understood the kind of stories we needed for our niche and worked with us to tailor the narrative on articles and videos. Their highly professional approach offers a distinct personal touch that is responsive to both the needs of their clients and the media outlet.”

Barbara Castiglia | Executive Editor, ModernRestaurantManagement.com

“As a journalist, Karen Schloss and her incredible team were go-to sources for the most talented and successful restaurateurs and food entrepreneurs in the tri-state area. As a friend and an entrepreneur, Diaz • Schloss has been incredibly supportive of all of my endeavors, including actively participating in meaningful nonprofit work and business mentoring. I am eternally grateful for my connection with them and hope to continue working with Karen and her team for years to come.”

Meg Fry | NJBIZ, ROI-NJ
