About

This is a family Company. My name is Matthew and I have over 10 years hospitality experience. A few years ago I was stuck in Sales and MArketing jobs when I decided to go back to school and met my wife. Since then I have been working towards my dream of owning a company that not only goes above and beyond for its customers, but provides a workplace where talented peopel can come in and grow while peroviding for their families. I specialize in off premises catering and event planning. My wife handles Front of the House Management and bartending. In addition she is a photographer and together we form a formiddable team. My cuisine is what I call modern South Florida or Florida Georgia. It represents my southern and classical culinary rots fused with the blend of Latin and Caribbean cuisines you find down here in Lake Worth. My prices are the best in town. For $15 a person I will provide an all you can eat buffet with hors d'oeuvres. Servers are only $50. Our cuisine is comfort classics and our service is personal. You are the guest of honor and we will make your special meal extraordinary.

Food Amazing, staff Amazing. We had 145 people that attended our event when we were only supposed to be 120 ... You know how it goes. We were afraid we wouldn't have enough because of that but honestly there was enough to feed a small army. Chef Matthew and his lovely Wife told us we should have additional servers 1 for every 20-25 (trust me it made a difference) at first we didn't want to splurge, however we were told of another event they catered where the bride and groom opted for minimal servers and were upset. We didn't want to chance it on our big day. They were on time and the food was delicious. Were having a baby in November and We have already booked them for the baby shower. (125 people are invited) can't wait ! Oh and the price is unbeatable I mean they start as low as $10 a head... We ordered their premium package and got fillet minion and salmon.... I highly recommend them...

If you are looking for amazing food- this food is amazing and the chef can cook! Unfortunately, we really had to stay on top of the menu to keep our mahi from being replaced with cod. The flan was amazing- save yourself the money and buy the same flan from Publix ( I imagined it was home made for what we paid per person for it- Nope!). The chef was very friendly and responsive at first. However, the lack of professionalism was astounding. Dinner was late- very late. We paid for food for 170- there was not enough food to feed the 168 that attended. We paid for pick up service, cake cutting service- that we did not get. Some of the staff were less than professional in dealing with our event coordinator and others at our venue. I wanted to be able to rank this company better because the food was truly amazing. I would go with them if you have a smaller wedding and need just the food without the services.
