Food is acceptable but delivery and service sucks. Reviewed on 3rd Feb 2014 Verified Purchase We had the most disappointing CNY Buffet Lunch experience ever with Makan Mate. We arranged the buffet lunch on 1 Feb at 12 pm at my sister's condo at Bedok Reservoir View. There was no sight of the caterer at 11.30 am. When my brother in-law ... More called to enquire, we were told that the delivery was delayed for another hour. At 1 pm, there was still no sight of the caterer. The caterer called at 1.10 pm to advise that the delivery is on the way. The food only came at about 1.30 pm. By the time they set up the table and the food, it was about 1.45 pm. What's more, they left out the prawn dish and had to go back for it. We waited another 30 mins for the food to warm as they were cold since they were prepared at 11.30 am (which I doubted). We only started eating at 2.15 pm as the old folks and children are hungry but the food was barely warm. In my opinion, the caterer should not accept so many orders if they do not have the capacity to cope with the deliveries. This unpleasant experience had dampened our festive CNY mood and we did not really enjoy the food as we were all too tired and upset.

Worst ever experience with any caterer. Reviewed on 6th Feb 2014 Verified Purchase Buffet came 1.5 hours late. Nobody called to inform us and some guests have started leaving. Couldn't contact anyone from the caterer despite repeated phone calls. In the end, food was cold and served only at 2.30pm when we ordered it for 12pm. ... More Salmon from the Yu Sheng was watery and stale. Pathethic looking and we end up providing our own salmon to replace those from the caterer. Homemade plum sauce was not provided for the Golden Ocean Catch Fish. The complimentary red bean sesame balls were hard. The drinks were not cold. Overall food quality is poor.

Food is not great, but service is commendable Reviewed on 5th Feb 2014 Verified Purchase Half of the dishes are not nice. Golden Ocean Catch Fish Fillet is too hard. Red Bean Paste with Lotus Seed & Coconut Milk is too sweet and too watery. Honey Chicken is too hard. Free dessert (red bean ball) is also too hard. Fried rice and Yu ... More Sheng was good. Sea Scallop in Yam Ball was the best dish. Show less Happiness Delight-幸福套餐 Self collection Favourite dish: Yu Sheng First time ordering from merchant: Yes Will recommend this merchant: Not too sure

Fast, stress free service with reasonably interesting food. Reviewed on 23rd Dec 2013 Verified Purchase We ordered one of the Christmas menus. Excellent, clear service and ordering was very easy. Just tell them when and where, and everything just appears. Setup and tear-down was incredibly efficient, well-presented and quick. But cold platter ...

Must order Mini Chocolate Eclairs!  Portions run small! Reviewed on 22nd Dec 2013 Verified Purchase Delivery was on-time. Ordered Nyonya Chap Chye but they delivered Curry Vegetables instead. Delivery person said that the item is Nyonya Chap Chye, but it's obviously Curry Vegetables. I know what Nyonya Chap Chye does NOT look like ... More curry. Overall food taste was OK. Steamed Prawn Gyoza skin tore apart when served. Best item in the menu was the Mini Chocolate Eclair. Portions run small, so order exact pax or in excess if you have hungry guests.

Satisfactory Reviewed on 17th Dec 2013 Verified Purchase The caterer arrived on time, but set up too slow. Crowds started to pour in at 12pm but food is not ready. Hence no time to warm up the food and some items are pretty cold. Overall service is ok but portion of certain foods are too little, e.g. ... More Yam Paste and fried rice.

Great food but not so great on punctuality and flexibility   Reviewed on 16th Dec 2013 Verified Purchase Apart from the Spicy Chicken Baked Rice, we liked the Carbonara Pasta, Cream of Carrot Soup, Caesar Salad and Baked Fish. Some of our guests commented that the food was yummy and even asked for Makan Mate's name cards which unfortunately, were not ... More provided. The menu was heavy on carbohydrates and it would have been great if the caterer becomes more flexible with the selection of food choices in future - allowing guests to choose from a list of food. Our main dissatisfaction with this caterer stems from the fact that their food came late and our guests had to wait around for their setup to be ready - instead of arriving at the agreed time of 2.30 pm to setup for our event (due to begin at 3 pm), the delivery person arrived at about 2.50 pm.
