What people are saying

 

"We provide 220 Ottawa based employees with 2 prepared lunches per week- that's a 104 lunches that need to be coordinated each year!! 

Prior to Matt and his Black Iron Catering team taking on 90% of this huge task, we wasted more people hours, scheduling, following up, hand holding, cleaning up... and still ended up with too many disappointing lunches to count. Since Matt took over, we’re never disappointed! He and his team are friendly, professional, and will honestly listen to your needs & wants, then plan, prepare and execute creative, delicious food, time and time again!"  


Meagan - HR Manager - SolarWinds MSP



 "Matthew and the team from Black Iron Catering did a fantastic job at our recent corporate event.  The food was excellent, the service flawless, and Matthew is unflappable no matter what you throw at him.  As an event organizer, you could not ask for a better event partner!"
