They Catored my sons bris recently. Mendy is easy to work with, we had certain requests on how we wanted to customize. Generally on package style orders, caterers are not flexible when not rolling with a high budget. However Mendy took the extra mile to make sure everything was what we wanted within reasonable budget. The food was fresh and tasty. 5 ++stars

We recently organized a Company Appreciation event and had a fantastic experience. Initially, when placing our order, they offered to set up for us, which we declined. However, when we arrived, everything was beautifully set up. They even provided extra items and ensured we had everything we needed. They truly saved the day for us. Thanks a million!
