Really great experience, very responsive and adaptive to allergies. On the day, came right on time and food was delicious. Wish it was a little warmer but there were a lot of us. Really realible, good food and worth the money. Would definitely use again! Thanks

Disappointed as the chef pulled out late in the day some emergency, he did send a replacement chef, fair enough The service was good presentation good just very disappointed with the quality of the steak, really chewy , just felt didn’t measure up to the price paid. Also all very fast , kind of felt they were in and out as fast as they could.

The evening was very successful. Both the chef and server were excellent and left the kitchen space in perfect order. The only small criticism (and it is only small) would be that the plates used to serve the food were not always warm, and so the food wasn't as warm as it could have been on a couple of occasions. As I said, only a small negative comment on what was a hugely enjoyable event

Am thrilled with the service given. Excellent communication beforehand and Cinzia worked hard to make sure I was happy with the menu. On the day she gave excellent service and cooked a wonderful meal. We didn't have to do anything - everything was cleaned up perfectly. It was a lovely special birthday treat and I highly recommend Milano Catering.

Fantastic from start to finish, AG arrived on time and served the meal on time. All courses were delicious and all the party agreed just how nice the food was. AG was very professional and friendly letting us take pictures of him at work. Thank you

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.
