“For a seriously good steak, 500 Degrees in Cronulla is amazing. It’s a modern steakhouse where the cuts are generous, and the flavours never miss.
If I’m after something relaxed and a little unexpected, Little Parrot in Caringbah. It’s friendly, fun, and a great choice for casual lunches or early dinners.
And when it’s time for a well-made cocktail and a bit of atmosphere, Blind Bear in Cronulla delivers every time. Low-lit, laid-back, and exactly the kind of neighbourhood bar you hope to find.”

There’s something special about catering in the Sutherland Shire. Maybe it’s the crisp breeze rolling off Gunnamatta Bay, or the way guests gather barefoot on Burraneer lawns with champagne in hand. From a long lunch that drifts into the evening to a boardroom that needs feeding at one sharp, the Shire brings out our best.
Had the Catered by Matt team serve at my baby shower over the weekend and the prep, food, service and clean up was all fantastic. So many compliments on the food! Thanks team

The location at Bundeena’s wasn’t the handiest and we had some issues with weather but Mat and his team managed the whole process flawlessly. They were calm, efficient and the food was restaurant quality delicious. We felt incredibly looked after and recommend them highly.
“Matt & Darcy were great!”
Matt & Darcy were great! It was such an easy process. Matt was super accomodating and we were able to finalise everything very easily. They turned up in time, were super friendly & the food was delicious and after left the kitchen impeccable. We will definitely be asking them to cater again.

I organised a birthday dinner at home through Catering by Matt. All the food was sensational and those that had vegetarian meals described them as the best they had ever eaten. Vinnie, the chef, was a pleasure to have around and a brilliant chef. Can’t recommend them enough.
