We are very pleased with Chef Francois who was so flexible and managed to solve unexpected problems at last minute. The management was extremely professional and accommodating too. They made it very easy to book their service. They offer wine pairing as well. So glad we used them. The only let down was the waitress who came did not seem to be very experienced. Even though she seems like a very nice person, she had to be reminded to top up the glasses of wine before the glass go empty. Would definitely use them again.
The Oyster Society absolutely made our anniversary party. All our guests raved about the quality and the presentation. The whole team is so professional and responsive I felt in really great hands in the run up to the party and on the night itself. We wanted to do something memorable and special to celebrate with friends that would elevate a gathering at home, and The Oyster Society delivered in spades. I can't recommend it highly enough. - Katherine B.
Chef Michael delivered an exceptional sharing platter experience. Every dish was generous, vibrant, and full of flavour. Laurent and his guests were genuinely impressed by the quality and presentation. Effortless service and outstanding food made the evening a complete success.
Charlie was absolutely amazing! He was extremely professional and the food was exceptional. He made the at home dining experience everything and more than myself and guests expected. I can’t wait to book him again.
This was an exceptional fine dining experience! I recently celebrated my birthday with my siblings, and Caroline and Guilherme prepared a truly wonderful lunch for us. I must admit, I was initially a bit apprehensive, as I had never tried anything like this before. However, I couldn't have been happier with how it all turned out. Caroline and Guilherme were delightful hosts, and their culinary skills were outstanding. We indulged in a delightful 6-course tasting menu, savoring each course with great enthusiasm. Initially, I thought this would be a one-time experience when I arranged it, but I'm already contemplating when I can repeat it. I cannot speak highly enough of Caroline and Guilherme - their expertise made this birthday celebration truly memorable.
Epic food, a true professional Charles made hosting our event so easy, amazing food and superb service. Definitely recommend!
We had Chef Chad to do the food at my wife’s Mexican themed get together as the initial restrictions ended. We did it sharing/buffet style to suit the informal nature of the event. The booking was super easy and Chad got back to me immediately to discuss the menu and what I was looking for. All sorted out very quickly. Chad was an absolute delight to have in the kitchen and the food….WOW…..our guests could not of been happier. My personal favourite was the Beef Barbacoa a slow cooked brisket cooked in beef stock, ancho, pasilla, jalapeño, salsa verde, adobo, onions and garlic. The Chicken cooked with tequila and baked black beans were also getting rave reviews but in truth it was all delicious. It was made all the more interesting as Chad gathered the group together to explain every dish, not just the dish but how it was created. A special day. Thanks Chad!
Great communication beforehand, fantastic ingredients and well selected menu and very pleasant, professional and efficient service on the night. Highly recommend.
Leila did an amazing job, she even managed to cook for 16 people at our house. Super nice way of presenting it, great presentation style of food and food being absolutely delicious. I am happy to book her again in the future and can recommend her a lot! She was also super nice and flexible for Vegetarian Options and I had full trust to leave my kitchen to her and even leave the house during prep time! Thank you Leila! ...
Just to say an incredible thank you to Crystal-Lee and Derrick. They went above and beyond for me yesterday. We were all so happy!
