Just wanted to take a moment out and thank the whole crew of Pak Catering with the food they provided at my wedding on 1st September. From the starters to the main courses to the deserts it was fantastic. The guys definitely went above and beyond. Also the drinks were very good as they come piping cold. Very much recommended these guys. Best caters around in the Asian cuisine food sector. Very happy!!!

Pak Catering were amazing! My mom used them for my surprise birthday party and the food was amazing, the whole family loved the food! (Even came back the next day for some extra spring rolls as they all went too fast)! Thank you so much!

We had the pleasure of working with Pak Catering for two of our family weddings, one hosting over 1,100 guests and the other over 1,400. From start to finish, their service was exceptional, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the overall experience.
One of the most impressive aspects was how well they managed such large-scale events without compromising on quality. The food was not only incredibly fresh but served piping hot throughout the entire event — something that many guests specifically praised. It’s no easy feat to maintain such high standards at this scale, but Pak Catering delivered flawlessly.
A special mention must be made of our main guest, Ch M Yasin, who was extremely impressed with the quality and service. His satisfaction speaks volumes, and we received countless compliments from attendees who were equally happy with the catering.
Pak Catering went above and beyond to accommodate our needs, and their professionalism, organization, and attention to detail truly stood out. We wholeheartedly recommend them for any event — big or small — and look forward to working with them again in the future.

Pak Catering are renowned for their delicious and authentic Pakistani cuisine.
We ordered food for a dinner party and the quantity of food we were given was simply outstanding.
From starters to mains and to desserts every dish tasted delicious and was freshly cooked. I highly recommend Pak Catering for authentic Pakistani Cuisine.

We were nervous at first as it was Our first child’s wedding events. Pak catering I can’t thank enough every event the food was amazing, The guests also gave us wonderful feedback. With the owners help we had designed menu’s with a range of foods for all the events, mehndi, mayoon, Nikhah, dholki etc
My personal favourite was karhi pakoras at the mayoon. Their shahi halwa was to die for. Thank you Bhaijan for making our every event special with your delicious food

We had very good service from Ali sahib and his company. The food was great and everyone in the party praised the quality of food. Ali sahib also gave us an extra dish to be included in the catering service. The delivery was right on time, and we had excellent experience and we can’t be more praiseful than this.
Thank you very much!

Had our sons 2nd year birthday party with lots of family – Faisal managed our order – kept in touch throughout and delivered the food on time – very impressed with the food and had some left over. Everyone was happy. No doubt will use again. Keep up the good work 🙂

Naomi’s catering provided an exceptional service that was both professional and thoughtful. Naomi herself addressed the crowd, explaining the menu, while her staff were consistently friendly and professional. The attention to detail was impressive, reminiscent of the organized service you’d find on an airplane, with cutlery neatly packaged. Despite being at a funeral, the food tasted absolutely divine, bringing a sense of warmth and comfort. The inclusion of food allergy signs was a considerate touch, demonstrating Naomi’s commitment to the well-being of her clients. Overall, Naomi’s Catering is mannerable, friendly, and provides excellent service, making them a great choice for future events.

We are really happy and grateful to Naomi and her team for their excellent services. Friends and family were highly impressed with how good the food was! The price was reasonable and made it affordable for us. Naomi personal touch on the day made the day warmth. Their professionalism and organisation has really lessened our stress. Naomi is really helpful in guiding us in our food choice decision. We would highly recommend her to anyone.

Naomi recently provided the catering for my late father’s funeral Reception. Her contribution helped to make a sad occasion a wonderful success!

After a long day, a varied, flavoursome and sumptuous meal was just what we all needed – Naomi and her team provided that and more!!

To quote one of the attendees: “The catering was exceptional, providing comfort through exquisite flavours and presentation…!”

Many thanks, Naomi – to you and your team!!

Having attended two events recently where Naomi’s Catering provided the food, I can only share a fraction of how impressed I was with the quality of food and the professionalism of all the staff. On 31st March 2025 we attended a Mother’s Day charity event organised by Naomi. I must say that the management of the day was to be admired. The beneficiaries and guests of the event were in awe of the effort to make the day memorable.

Reviews give a snapshot of one person’s experience and readers generally read between the lines

If 5 stars is the benchmark then I recommend you give them a try, you will not regret it.

Remember, there is no substitute for quality

Naomi catered for the reception, following my late partner’s celebration of life. Naomi’s company was professional, and she was very flexible in accommodating last minute changes to the menu and numbers. Which gave me reassurance at such a difficult and challenging time. All guests, commented on the food, and said that it tasted just like home. Thank you Naomi and your team, for your support on the day.

What can I say? Where do I begin to express my gratitude to Naomi and her team for catering for our wedding?

Let’s start at the beginning……..

From my initial conversation with Naomi, I knew that I was in good hands! She had so many great ideas that she brought to the table, but most importantly, she LISTENED to what I wanted. Her professionalism, expertise and passion were the characteristics that stood NCS Catering ‘head and shoulders’ above her competitors!

Our wedding guests are real ‘foodies’, so Naomi and her team had to bring their ‘A’ game – and they didn’t disappoint. The food was AMAZING!!! The canapés, starters, mains and desserts were delicious and the buffet on the evening was ‘next level’. Everyone said that they couldn’t fault the food (much to my delight).

Not only did she provide a feast for kings, but she was always willing to speak with me (day or night) regarding amendments to food choices, swapping people on the seating plan and overall reassurance that everything will go well on the day.

I will recommend you to everyone I meet….Keep up the fantastic work!!

I would like to record my thanks and appreciation to Naomi and her team who catered for my late husband’s funeral wake.
Their service was professional, organised and friendly! I received lots of compliments, positive feedback on the taste and quality of the food!
I particularly appreciated Naomi’s regular check ins and reassurance not just on the food service but also my wellbeing at such a sensitive and difficult time.
I would happily have no hesitation in using NCS services again and highly recommend them for all your catering needs.

Πολύ ωραίο φαγητό. Ιταλική πίτσα και εξαιρετική μακαρονάδα και σαλάτα του Καίσαρα.

One of the best restaurants Birmingham. The food is always so good and the service is great. Monika especially is always so warm and welcomes us with a smile at every visit, making sure we are enjoying our time there.

Nice food. Great vibe. Friendly staff. Absolutely brilliant Anna! Thanks for the lovely little surprise!! One of my favorite restaurants in Birmingham!

As you walked in the place had the look and feel of a high quality restaurant. The atmosphere was very pleasant and felt like it had a touch of quality. Good menu choices, although not much variety with the vegetarian options. Wine list was good. Definitely highly recommend for anyone who likes Italian food.

I recently celebrated my birthday at Piccolino, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment we walked in, the staff went out of their way to make the evening special. Every team member was attentive, friendly, and genuinely thoughtful especially Kristina and Erion, it truly felt like they were celebrating with us.

The food was absolutely delicious every dish was beautifully presented and full of flavour. The service was seamless, and our server made sure everything was perfect without ever feeling rushed.

A huge thank you to the entire team for making my birthday so memorable. It’s rare to find a place that gets both the food and the atmosphere just right, but you all nailed it. I’ll definitely be back and recommending you to friends and family!

Very good birthday experience here and staff are all friendly. Erion and Anna sung a birthday song for me, thank you all so much:)) My favorite one is half lobster pasta and I will definitely go back next time

Came here for dinner for my birthday and had a lovely evening. Food and drinks were delicious and staff were very friendly, thank you to Diego for making our night more special. Definitely will be coming again.

We at Bryt energy are so thankful to Azar for making us feel so special with their lovely food and service ,every bite was a treat and we can’t wait to celebrate another event with their amazing food again. Thank you @A D Hockley .

Thank you for the amazing service from start to finish. The customers needs and requirements were understood very well and was happy to have discussions anytime we requested. The business site was clean and immaculate as first impression makes a big difference. For many years I have gone to weddings, the food is always cold, this was the first time I ate HOT FOOD at a wedding, it was very organised, professionally laid out, great staff members and most importantly the food had good spice and texture. The catering service completed this wedding with positive feedback from the guests. The owner went over and beyond to accommodate us and packed away the remaining food neatly and professionally which I never seen before and made sure he packed for both sides of the family. If you want quality and professional catering services I definitely will recommend AD Hockley.. Thank you Azhar you delivered what you promised!!

Amazing food. Wish I knew about this catering company before hand. Tried several but this really hit the spot.
I ordered for my Mehndi night. The portions were generous, food was very warm on arrival. The taste i have nothing negative to say even if i tried. Customer service was brilliant through out. Always hesitant when I try somewhere knew but they were very reassuring.
Some people have a passion for cooking. I must say A D Hockley catering definitely does.
Thank you for making it a great experience to remember and would always use in future and recommend.

AD Hockley recently catered for my son’s wedding. They were highly professional from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious and everyone who came to the wedding commented on it. The waiters and serving staff were extremely professional and efficient and the team did everything they could to make it stress free and enjoyable. I have no hesitation in recommending AD Hockley as I will definitely be using them again as the food was second to none. I would like to thank them and send my good wishes.
Kind regards
Tahira Akhtar

We recently used this catering company for my sisters Big Fat Asian Wedding and what can we say, every single dish on our menu was spot on and cooked to perfection. The most delicious wedding food we’ve ever had actually! A week later and our guests are still talking about how amazing the food was.
It was so good that I asked my Dad to order me some more this weekend so I can enjoy it some more at home . My personal favourites were the Veg Samosas, Fish pakoras & the Ras Malai has got to be the best I’ve ever had!

The owner/caterer took into account of what we wanted from each dish and delivered everything exactly as we requested.

Highly recommend and will definitely be using this company again for future events.

Thank you very much.

We had a brithday party &
We tried A D Hockley food for the first time . Owner was really polite & professional . He give us assurity that he will provide the best quality food.food was delicious & still warm until it reach to coventry . Im glad we find the best caters which not only make delicious food only & provide the best customer service .

Ordered catering for an event at Aston University and it was brilliant. The food was perfect and Azar was very kind and helpful. I would absolutely recommend A D Hockley Catering!

Wonderful experience. Went for my son’s 9th birthday and we all thoroughly enjoyed it. Our server, Naomi, was lovely and efficient. The food alone was worth the money. But the look on our kids’ faces as they saw the animations was priceless.

This is the second time we have returned for Le Petit Chef as we loved the first time so much. The new story is fantastic and coupled with the food and wine brings a fantastic immersive experience for all ages. Highly recommend to everyone who asks.

Had the best time here the food was fantastic and we was a little sceptical as it’s gimmicky but it was great the woman looking after us was lovely and friendly and very attentive
We enjoyed from start to finish and would highly recommend

Staff were lovely, the experience is fun. It’s just massively over priced. You can eat in Michelin starred restaurants for £100pp. The food was mediocre. Tomato salad to start (not even any mozzarella just tomatoes!) The mark up on the food must be astronomical.
I’d recommend only if you have money to burn…

Thank you for giving me a new experience that combined great food and immersive performances that made our entire meal an unexpected experience.

We appreciate the service of your restaurant staff, their explanations and presentations made it easier for us to engage and enjoy the process.

Such a fun concept and so different to anything I have done before. Was worried that it might be style over substance but the food was delicious too.

A fantastic dining experience and the food was incredible. Would definitely go back and have reccomended to several friends and family members! Thank you

We recently used Shaad Catering Birmingham for our event, and I couldn’t be happier with the service. They provided the catering, staff, and stage setup, and everything was absolutely amazing. The food was delicious, the staff were professional and friendly, and the whole setup looked fantastic. The owner was personally present throughout to ensure everything ran smoothly. I truly loved the service – highly recommend!

We booked Shaad catering for our daughters 3rd birthday and it was Alhamdulilah a great experience. From the initial conversation for selecting the menu to the delivery of food and waitresses were incredibly smooth! All our guests enjoyed the foods, took so much more home as we had plenty left from the party. We had wonderful comments from guests stating how much they enjoyed the selection of menu which included: Starters- Chicken peri peri strips, Cajun kofta, Masala fish, Chilli Paneer. Mains- Runner beans with potatoe , Tarka Dhaal, King prawn jalfrezi, Rice & chicken Biryani! Dessert- Brownie with custard ( they were such large size!) Also, its very heartwarming to see such high standards actually being served. We are very thankful to the Chef Shahadoth bhai for your beautiful customer service & loving attention to details. There were alot of king prawns in the curry and nothing felt short of perfection! We will always remember you in our duas! All the best to your business and May Allah bless your hardworks

I recently attended a wedding catered by Shaad and we were all impressed! The food was absolutely excellent, fresh ingredients, full of flavour and beautifully presented. Every dish looked amazing and tasted even better. The staff were polite, friendly, and attentive. The catering was a perfect complement to a wonderful and special celebration.

I attended a wedding that was catered by Shaad. Excellent food. Very tasty and they definitely have a flair for creativity! Service was great and the staff were friendly and polite. There’s no doubt they were a crucial partner in making the hosts’ event so successful and the happy couple’s day so special. Like all guests, I went home with a rather large tummy!

From the Team here at Elegance Media.
We would like to thank you all for the hospitality you have showed us while we were shooting Mohima,s wedding.

The Food was amazing, very tasty, one of the best wedding food I have had.

The lambChops was so flavoursome.

The curries was full it flavour, and so tasty.

Shaad were my chosen caterers for my wedding recently and the food was brilliant. The guest feedback was absolutely amazing and would highly recommended using Shaad Catering. Not only is the food excellent, the personal service and details provided by the company was superb.

Shaad Catering were responsible for my sisters wedding on the 24th August. We were treated by most delicious food accompanied by with exceptional service. All our guests highly praised the food, some commenting it was the best wedding food they’ve had

We have stayed at this b&b for the last 2 nights and tonight will be our 3rd night. The rooms are large, clean, stylish and comfortable. Had 2 great night’s sleep and would definitely stay again. Haven’t tried the food yet but it smells great from the kitchen. The staff are professional and friendly and always happy to help. 10/10 would recommend.

We stopped by this take away with my hubby couple of months ago and I swear this take away has the best nigerian food in the whole UK! He is nigerian and I am hungarian, so it’s always hard to choose a good restaurant, but this place is something else! There was a lovely old lady that served us and she was just so kind and helpful. We can’t wait to pay another visit this weekend. Top restaurant with amazing service, highly recommended.

We used Glorious Catering as one of our caterers for our wedding in Wolverhampton. The food was amazing and the feedback from our guests were very positive especially those that had never had Nigerian food before. Thank you Glorious for providing great food and service.

For a cheap stay this place was perfect. The room we had was clean, the gentleman who runs the place is lovely also. Very polite and if you need anything he will do his best to accommodate. Thank you for our stay

Unlimited supply of delicious food. Lovely!

This is the worst catering service I have ever used to date. I ordered a large amount of food for an event and just the process alone of ordering the food was a hassle and very unprofessional. Azeezat is rude and has absolutely no customer service skills. I ordered my food to arrive at 6pm and it arrived nearly an hour late. The guest at my function did not enjoy the food and I had serval complaints about how “tasteless” the food was. And just to top all of this off I called the caterer to address these issues and she was nothing but rude and went as far as hanging up the phone on me. If you would like good tasting food and a seamless catering services this is a service you should NOT consider using.

This is my second time ordering from Glorious catering and it certainly won’t be my last time. I made a very large order very last minute and not only did Glorious Catering come through the food tasted amazing. Everytime I order from here I’m always asked where did I get the food from. Thank you so much once again!! I can’t wait to come back!!

Terrible Experience and Extremely Disappointed Avoid to buy any food from him please

I ordered food for my daughter’s first birthday and paid in advance, expecting something special for such an important occasion as I have tasted his food on different occasions. BUT Unfortunately, what we received was absolutely unacceptable. I specifically ordered biryani, but what arrived was just coloured boiled rice with potatoes not even close to real biryani. Who serves potato biryani, seriously? We are not in Pakistan bro it’s time to raise your standards. Even in Pakistan no one served Allllooooo Baryani.
People pay you with their hard earned money, and you can’t keep treating customers like they don’t matter.

This was not just a regular meal it was meant for a once in a lifetime celebration. The food was third class lacked flavour and showed no care or effort. All guests cursed him so much

This experience left us deeply disappointed. I hope you take this feedback seriously and improve your quality and customer service. Don’t take orders if you can’t serve properly to your customers.

Had a serving of 800 guests at the Nikkah Cermony of my Son at the masjid.. People really enjoyed the food and called me to compliment the catering company..they were on time and managed the food in the kitchen brilliantly ..meat pilau, korma and keer was exceptional..
Jazakala Rashad..

Just recently started using these guys during Ramadan 2025 and the food has always been great. I’d highly recommend the chappal kebabs, fish pakoreh, chicken jalfrezi, gaajar halwa and the lahori kheer. Ahtsham is a really nice guy and has always looked after us

We had the pleasure of having Royal Lahori Chef do the food for my sisters wedding, last weekend.
What an absolute delight! The food was impeccable, had all the guests talking!
Brother Ahtesham really looked after us and our guests, he approached us continuously to make sure everything was going well and also approached guests to make sure they were happy with their food and service which was lovely, as it is not something caterers usually get involved in.
The canapés where bought out in small batches, so they not to spoil, this was a good move as they remained fresh.
Would highly recommend this company, not just for the tastiest wedding food available but also the hospitality and care in their service.
Thanks again Ahtesham Brother, from the wedding on 4/5/25.
May Allah continue to put an abundance of Barakah in your business.

Orderd food on Eid day. Everything was perfect. Starters Meat pulao zarda and lahori kheer was really nice. All family members and friends enjoyed the food. Ehtisham bhai very nice person and all the team doing great. Highly recomended

I contacted Royal Lahori Chef having used them previously for a family event.This time I was hosting an Iftar event at a school!

I was nervous but Ahtsham bhai took care of all the catering worries I had leaving me to concentrate on other things.

The food came promptly and was absolutely delicious, all my guests were asking one after another who our caterers were.There was more than enough to give to everyone to take home too -the next day everyone mentioned how the food still tasted the same as it did when it first arrived.

The quality of the food is brilliant amd the price paid unmatched! I am so happy with Royal Lahori chef catering and the service we recieved, we as a school will be surely returning for all our occassions and food needs.

Overall excellent service, excellent food, excellent quality and deffinately affordable. Thank you Ahtsham bhai, you will definitely being see more of us, our family, and school In’Shaa’Allah.

May Allah SWT put Barakah in your business.Ameen.You genuinely look after your clients.

Absolutely amazing would definitely recommend for both big and small weddings. Our guests absolutely loved the food as well did not hear any complaints will definitely book again in the future thank you once again for your kind service and delicious food

Food wasn’t great to be honest. To top that customer service was diabolical!! My husband went in to hand the empty boxes back. We asked for the £20 for returning the boxes. However, we were told that is only refunded if you give a deposit first. So that seems fair enough.
However, when wanting the boxes back the guy turns around and says “technically the boxes belong to them!” What a joke!! He is lucky that we were returning them! “Technically we wouldn’t have bothered like every other time and probably like everyone else!”
Won’t be ordering from there ever again!!
Would not recommend!

The food I had ordered turned out to be undercooked chicken roast. The curry was way too watery and the rice had no meat in it

Very disappointed in the food. I would not recommend ordering from here

I used Midlands Catering for a family wedding. The food was delivered on time and served hot. At the end they packed everything as was agreed. Overall the food was nice ماشاءالله, the service was great and the price was reasonable.

MashAllaha very good food and good service and excellent owner

We are one of Midland Catering Ltd’s regular customer. They supply food for our monthly ijtema in Dar ul Irfan. Quality of their food and services has been consistently excellent.
We highly recommend to others.

Old food been given out on eid day 3 family’s with food poisoning

Ordered for approx 30 people and the process was very smooth. Just a few days notice required. Everything was ready when we went to pick up the food and it was piping hot and well made. The food was amazing and everyone loved it! The curry was oily and quite salty but the flavour was very nice. Will order again

MKB catered my son wedding at Merigold banquet Birmingham. The food and service was first class. Special thank you to Yasir the manager for taking care of everything and making our event go smoothly.

MKB Catering provide an exceptional service from your first enquiry to the delivery of the food. They are highly professional and go the extra mile to provide the highest quality, freshly prepared and the most delicious food I’d say in the UK. They catered for both my wedding functions, the guests still comment on how wonderfully tasty the food was. I recommend them to all my friends and family and they have been equally impressed. They are real culinary experts and when you taste the food, it is succulent, delicious and memorable.

When the food is delivered it is piping hot and the staff are so helpful and respectful and work with you. A unique quality they have is that they always cook plenty and you never have to worry about running out of food at your event.
I highly recommend them-they really deserve a catering award. I promise you will not be disappointed. Keep up the brilliant work MKB.

Absolutely top end wedding food and service thanks Yasir

Used MKB catering for my sons wedding April 2024. The food and service was amazing. Lots of compliments from family and guests. Thank you for making our event special. I fully recommend this company. I will definitely be using you again

The thing with these guys is that they are a young couple but deal with everyone with a lot of respect. No matter the sex or age they are so approachable and are proper genuine people. They’ll advise you not from a point of view not of them making the most money but from you ordering what’s most suitable. Keep it up Yasser and Sobia

I contacted MKB to cater packed containers of food for my Grandads Janazah.

Mr Yasser from MKB was extremely accommodating considering it was such a last minute order!

We ordered meat pilau, kebabs & homemade vegetable samosa.

They packaged it very nicely for us & most importantly everyone thoroughly enjoyed the food, there were lots of compliments from multiple members of family & friends!

We will definitely be ordering from MKB again

Very good company, good quality food and service. Owner very polite, friendly and helpful
