Amazing 50th Anniversary Party

Manny's catered my 50th Anniversary party for 75 guests at my home. People raved about the food, service and the elegant beauty of the event. Manny's handled the whole event including food, bar, tables, table cloths, glass ware, flat ware, china, valet parking and a beautiful wedding cake. My catering manager was Robert Sharp. What ever I came up with, he made it happen. He was a delight to work with. It was the easiest and best party I've ever had.

HORRIBLE, disappointing, and dishonest

DO NOT HIRE MANNYS CATERING! I hired them to cater my wedding, and just to start, they showed up late. I told them that I would have 200 guests at the wedding and we ended up with 180. Multiple tables did not get food and ended up only eating chips and salsa because they ran out of food while everyone else also only got 1 taco. They were not at all prepared to serve the amount of guests we agreed on. Not only did they not bring enough food Robert Sharp, the director of catering has not been honest with us throughout the process. The day of the wedding he told us that we owed him an extra $200+ because the venue required another server. I have confirmed with my venue that this was not true and our venue never required anything extra from us or them. Since I have confronted Robert about this he has not answered any of my calls or texts. It is one thing to make a mistake and own up to it, but to be dishonest, take money from customers and then not reply to us at all is beyond disappointing.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
