Booked for Birthday party

Harsha and her waitress were friendly and helpful. I had several messages before the event keeping in touch. The food was very good and the sea bass in particular was delicious. They arrived in good time and the whole experience was professional and enjoyable.

Booked for Other Event

Chef Fabio was wonderful. We were happy that he engaged with us but allowed us to have our party. The food was served on time and it was delicious. It looked so good too. I must admit I’ll be doing this again sometime soon.

Booked for Hen party

Great communication with Dineindulge throughout our booking and a lovely meal prepared by the private chef for my friends hen do. We were waited on throughout each course with the added bonus of the washing up being done was amazing! 5 star service for an in-house chef.

Booked for Hen party

We had a brilliant evening last night. Thank you very much to Rebecca for helping to organise our event and to James and Megan for the great service. The food was lovely and the team were extremely accommodating. I would definitely recommend this service. Thanks so much.

Booked for Birthday party

As this was a 60th birthday celebration we were really excited about the event. With James being caught in traffic made him over 2 hours late. The food was hot and tasty, although the starter disappointed a few of the guest. I would still book again as overall the event was enjoyable.

Booked for Anniversary

A very successful evening, Mark was very attentive to all our needs. He accommodate to our need to delay some of the timings due to unpredictable children. Nothing was too much trouble for him. We would definitely recommend this dining experience, and having a clean kitchen with no washing up was the icing on the cake.

We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.
