Social Proof

Trusted by Corporate and Private Clients Across Sydney

We recently engaged Aroma Catering & Private Chef for a private dining experience and it exceeded expectations from start to finish. Jo’s communication was clear and professional throughout the entire process, and everything on the day ran seamlessly. The food was exceptional, beautifully presented, full of flavour, and catered thoughtfully to different dietary requirements. Every course felt restaurant-quality, yet enjoyed in the comfort of our own space. A big standout was that everything was left spotless afterwards, which really completed the experience. Highly recommend Aroma for private events, celebrations, or anyone looking for a truly stress-free, high-end dining experience at home. We would absolutely book again.

Jo was an incredible chef! The food was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented, and the service was incredible from start to finish. I was quite stressed before he arrived trying to organise everything, but as soon as he came he completely took over and handled everything so smoothly. It allowed us to truly relax and enjoy the night without worrying about a single thing. His professionalism is unmatched and he was so helpful and attentive throughout the entire evening. I would 100% recommend him to anyone looking to make their event extra special.

Fabulous lunch, beautifully prepared, presented and delicious. Thank you Jo, our guests are still ringing through with many compliments on the food..

Thank you for making our wedding so special, you have given us memories we’ll cherish for years to come. From the beginning, we knew the food would be remarkable but what you created on our wedding day was unforgettable. The degustation became the heart of the celebration, and guests are still talking about it. We heard the same thing from every guest (and ourselves): every dish was a favourite. It was a true private chef experience: intimate, thoughtful and beautifully executed. The service was seamless, and every course felt crafted with care and intention. Also Jo and his team are the most beautiful people too, thank you for everything

Jo from Aroma and his friend Shane catered our wedding and absolutely exceeded our expectations. They created the most incredible buffet featuring beef brisket, pork loin, gourmet salads, potatoes, and fresh bread rolls. So many of our guests commented that it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had; and we couldn’t agree more! Thank you both for such a delicious spread that made our day even more special.

We had an amazing experience.The chef was very professional and made everyone feel special. They all learned a lot from the explanation and the overall communication. I highly recommend it, and it was worth every penny.

KELLY JONES 1 review • 0 photos starstarstarstarstar 35 weeks ago I contacted Joao about catering for my husband's 50th birthday getaway, which included breakfast and dinner for 14 people for 3 days. From the first contact with Joao the whole experience was truly amazing. Joao was so professional but at the same time so easy to deal with that it felt like he was another friend away with us. Every meal was delicious, full of flavor, prepared with top quality ingredients and beautifully presented. Joao put so much thought and effort into every meal he cooked for us and it felt like we were eating at a 5 star restaurant every day. We can't wait to hire Joao again for our next event and couldn't recommend him enough to anyone that is thinking of hiring a private chef.
