Testimonials

A pair of black quotation marks on a white background.

Mangia Kitchen did a FANTASTIC job with my mom’s retirement party. We had a four course meal and the food and service were outstanding. Katie was so easy and outgoing to work with and made the event go seamlessly.

Leanne L.

I have nothing but positive things to say about Katie! She has cooked for our family twice now and each time the service from start to finish has been outstanding. The food is just the cherry on top. We're already planning our next event with Katie :)

Curry S.

My partner and I hired Katie for our intimate oceanside wedding, and her services were even better than we could have expected - even as well recommended she is. She truly goes above and beyond. With great communication throughout the process, every detail was thought of.
