“We had an event at our home, catering for 35 people. I had not used ‘Catered by Matt’ before but based on the reviews I thought I would give them a go, especially as they are also local to me.
Everything was done with precision. The food was excellent, everybody raved about the quality and the taste. Thanks so much to Vincent who was so calm, helped me when I needed an extra set of hands and cleaned up – all done quietly with no fuss.
Thanks Matt for your advice for our Canapé menu.
We actually had no left overs at all!”
“We hired Matt and his team for a joint 50th party for my husband and me for 80 friends at our home in the Northern Beaches. We’d seen the sign driving past in Manly Vale – lucky us, as he’s a rare find.
From the first phone call until they turned up the day after the party to pick up the glasses, Matt and his team were professional, flexible, chill, so easy to work with, and full of good ideas. Our party was a hit, and everyone LOVED the food (we had the #2 canapé menu) and cocktails.
Our guests were so well taken care of, admiring of Matt and his team, and after everyone was fed, they left the kitchen spotless and jugs full of cocktails for us to carry on serving ourselves (as requested). Faultless service. We’ll use them again – as will many of our guests!!
