What Our Clients Say about us...

Thank you once again for helping to make the evening as wonderful as it was. Your staff was very unobtrusive and calm. It was great to see the waiters take the initiative to light the fire and the patio heater and check here and there that the candles are all lit! We had loads and loads of phone calls with words of thanks for the special evening and they all mention the lovely food as well.

Many, many, many thanks for your absolutely professionalism and fabulous food. There is just no way our party would have been such a huge success without you. I thank my lucky stars, the day that you arrived at our offices with a plate of treats!

I have had many calls to tell me how wonderful your food was and have no doubts that you will have huge spin-offs from a great evening.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

We'll definitely be seeing you in the future.

This mail is to say THANK YOU so much for the excellent service, prompt, friendly delivery, never late, we never had to call or complain about anything you guys were the best! The food, oh my word the food was to die for, exquisite, welcoming, fragrant home cooked meals with that extra air of elegance.

Keep up the great work, one can see from the way you deliver your food that you have a love for food and it shows in the presentation and taste.

Thanks again for everything, and I have your contact details so if I ever have a private function I will definitely give you a call.

Thank you very much. I have forwarded this on to N1 City, I urged them to pay today. Let's hope they do!

Thank you for everything you did for this event; everything looked truly beautiful and tasted superb! The staff at N1 City congratulated me/us for "finding the perfect people to handle the event." But it all comes down to your hard work & finding the right people etc. So really… well done!

Hope to work with you again soon.

We had an awesome day, made perfect of course by the wonderful food and beautiful decor you both provided. It really was THE MOST delicious meal any of us had ever tasted, beautifully presented and cooked to perfection, confirmed by the fact that not a scrap was left on any plate! I had no doubts at all that you would make our day perfect; you are both such amazing people who went far beyond what was expected of you, interpreting our requests in the many e-mails between us to create exactly what we dreamed of. We just wish we could do it all again! We hope to return to Camps Bay for our anniversaries to come and will definitely want to you to repeat what you did for us for our wedding at the many parties we intend to have in the future. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend you to anyone who wants their dream turned to reality.

Many thanks for an amazing function..you certainly made the day very special. As you know, I normally like to control everything happening around me but it was a real pleasure to relax and let you get on with the job of getting a delicious meal onto the table with perfect timing and fabulous presentation. You thought of every detail down to the last cake fork and I value your meticulous attention to every aspect of the catering.

Please also give a very big thank you to Carol. The flowers were amazing. She was happy to use my initial requests and make them very special with her own clever touches and flair. She went out of her way to ensure that the flowers were perfect on the day..not an easy task with the lilies which have to be timed and nurtured to perfection.

I wish both of you every success in the future and will not hesitate to recommend you and your excellent team for any function that requires caterers of a high calibre.

Good luck over the festive season.

Best wishes,

Friday night was wonderful and the food was absolutely delicious. We got many compliments on the dishes from the guests and we thought is was really good food. There was enough for everyone (even a little left over) so everybody really enjoyed themselves.

Thanks so much for both your professionalism and excellent catering. We look forward to using you again for functions in the future.

Kind Regards,

Thank you very much to you gals and your team for your assistance and exquisite food and flowers for our launch. As you are aware, we launched a very exclusive product and we are proud that you were able to assist us. Our invitees and honoured guests all complimented us on our choice of caterers.

Our concert and launch was a great success and we look forward to working with you in the future."

"Ambrosia is responsive and professional in running their catering business. I chose them on the basis of the prompt response to my request for a quotation as well as their reasonable pricing.

All of my subsequent requests, changes as well as crisis where handled with the same efficiency and aplomb confirming my instincts about them as a service provider.

On the night, I was not surprised at the well organized and efficient serving of 200 x 4 course meal which with the waiters and kitchen staff working in unison, was slick and unobtrusive. Before we knew the meal had been served, everything cleared away and staff melted away so that we soon forgot they were even there. The subsequent new years day clean up was the kind of value add that I probably appreciated most of all. A virtuoso performance."

"...It was FANTASTIC - thank you so much. I was not aware that the bride and both fathers were in fact chef's! - but let me tell you, they raved about the devine dinner you served up - so well done!

The Bridal couple were also thrilled with everything!

Everything went so smoothly and there were no hiccups - all your efforts were really appreciated and looking forward to the next one!"

Just thought I'd let you know that Irene Cameron was blown away by your catering at Greig's 21st Saturday - in fact every little detail, apparently - down to a very much needed hug made your (and Carol's) involvement awesomely memorable for her!!"

I just wanted to say thank-you sooooo much for being so easy to work with, so patient with my one million changes to the menu and in the end pulling off an amazing menu, which was commented on by everyone! One of our big foodie friends said it was the best wedding food he had ever had and it topped all the meals he had eaten out that week, while on holiday in CT! Loads of other people commented on how good the whole menu was, and my Portugese mother-in-law's very high food standards were met - and exceeded!

Not only did you create a wonderful menu and cook it all to perfection, but you also listened to our odd requests such as "don't hold back on the garlic/salt/chilli" and "dont spend too much energy on presentation, just focus on the taste", and for ladies who are not Portugese you captured the essence of the food we asked for brilliantly!

Congratulations on a wonderful event and again, thank-you so much. I would be happy to recommend you to anyone who asks!!!

What a pleasure to work with such professional people ! From discussing the event on day one, I felt at ease and in good hands! Thank you for bending over backwards for us regarding all the changes and requests!

The passion and talent of the SA Youth choir under white bedouin tents at the wonderful venue, Leeuwenhof, was a sight that will stay with us for a long time. And the classy catering added to the success of the event.

You are truly blessed!

I am so sorry for the late reply, life has been a bit of a whirlwind since the wedding day! But we are back now and will settle this outstanding bill this week.

I would also like to drop something off for you at work in the next week or 2. Beatrice, again a HUGE thank you - you really were outstanding!! You and your staff were imperative in the success of the day and we cannot thank you enough!! The venue have asked for detailed feedback on your services as they would like to use you in future and I have heard nothing but praise from our guests so I hope you get some business from that too!! You are such an asset to the industry!

We just wanted to send our heartfelt thank-you to you and your team for the fantastic wedding feast at the Sandpiper on 6 December.

Thank-you for the incredible attention to detail, from the checking and double checking that was done before the time to the effective and pro-active managing of the night (despite the curve-balls that were thrown your way). The food was fantastic, and without exception it is the first thing people who attended mention. We really have had phenomenal feedback, we even had some guests who posted pictures of the food on facebook!

Your team was well prepared, efficient and they interacted with the guests so well. The handling of the special meals was seamless and it made such a difference to the individuals concerned that they had been specifically catered for.Thanks to your competence the food wasn't even on our radar of things we needed to think about on the day and for that we are extremely grateful. We both regard you very highly, thank-you for contributing to making our wedding a memorable one.

Here is a long over due thank you for your wonderful work, assistance and professionalism that you provided on our big day. Please feel free to use this on your website or alternatively, just for your own personal gratification- you truely deserve it.

"The personalised attention to detail; the friendly nature; the extra support, inspiration and advice given by Bea and Carol; was such a wonderful contrast to other catering companies that I had been in touch with.

Bea and Carol have a unique way of making you feel so special because they give you so much of their time throughout the planning process as well as extra strength on the day!

To us, Ambrosia catering provided us with a feast that everyone to this day still talks about! For us, Bea and Carol, captured our vision for our wedding day and made sure that what we wanted was there! There were no disappointments because both of these ladies have a proactive nature that smooths out any possible disasters in advance! I will happily continue to recommend you to all our friends!

Thank you for sharing our day with us Bea and Carol! You truely are wonderful people!"
