I've worked with many caterers over the years involving work, but never had the need for one personally. Our daughter was recently married in Palm Springs, CA, and I needed a caterer. Planning a wedding halfway across the U.S. was stressful enough, and I needed help. I reached out through Thumbtack, and Chef Matty was my only response. He responded in a very timely manner and, after a short consultation of our needs, he presented us with an abundant variety from which to choose. He didn't take my deposit and disappear for the next ten months leading up to the wedding, leaving me to wonder what was ahead, but instead stayed in constant contact with me and made me feel at ease. Because of distance, we were not afforded the luxury of scheduling a taste test ahead of the big event, but we were in no way disappointed. He reached out to me upon our arrival in Palm Springs and confirmed our time for delivery. We even Face Timed so he could have a “tour of the kitchen” of the VRBO we rented. I was helping the bride when he arrived, but he showed up in a timely manner and took control. He put my mind at ease so I could focus on my daughter. I had absolutely no worries! The food was magnificent and beautifully displayed, and guests are still talking about the menu. He cleaned up after and properly stored the leftovers, which were later brought out in the early hours when guests started getting the munchies. Chef Matty made our event spectacular! I have no more weddings to plan in my future, but please give him a call if you do, or even if you just live in the area and need someone to relieve you from the task of cooking for a crowd! He is sure to please!

We had an awesome group dinner cooked on site by the amazing chef Sirrena. Great taco night, food was delicious, chef was dope, enough leftovers to feed the whole valley. Chef Matty’s communication was on point. Can’t say enough great things - book them today.

We had the best experience with Desiree from Crafted Kravings. We were celebrating my Dad's 70th birthday and wanted a specially crafted menu from his favorite restaurant near our home and she nailed it. Each course was delicious and plated beautifully. I highly recommend their services for a special occasion or just a fun excuse not to cook :).

We had an amazing experience! Beautiful presentation, fresh and delicious sushi…fair pricing. Will absolutely use them again.

We hired them twice for their sushi experience. We had an amazing female chef that made the most delicious sushi rolls. She was super friendly & would make anything you requested. Afterwards she left the kitchen spotless. We would definitely use them again for a private sushi party!

Amazing, fresh food. We’ll definitely have chef matty for our next corporate retreat!
Our group of 20 people hired Chef Matty for a company retreat in palm springs. From initial contact to meeting in person they exceeded my expectations. We had 2 lunches and 2 Dinners booked and the food was SO good that our group was disappointed that we did not have him the whole week!! we had many go back for 2nd plates because the food really was THAT good! I would recommend Chef Matty to everyone!! we will definitely be using him next time we are back!!

Chef Matty & team were great! We had a 16 person meal at our house that they did for us. They came, cooked, served and cleaned. His sushi appetizers were an absolute hit. Everyone was raving about those. The steak and risotto were awesome. He even provided a dessert for everyone that was not on the menu. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for private chef services.
