“Thank you so much for all the love, effort and work that you put into everything on Saturday. The food was delicious and beautifully presented – we got so many comments about how great it was. Having you take care of all the details in that regard really made such a difference to us – we actually had quite a few hiccups with the music, the bar, and a few other things, so not having to worry at all about the food – and having it be so perfect – was just wonderful.”

“Thank you also for your patience with things running behind on the night and being willing to stay later – we really appreciate you both doing that.”

“Sending you our deepest thanks again for helping us so much and being a part of this moment in our lives (even if it was a bit crazy!) – and blessings to you from us all.”
With love,

The food was fantastic, the service excellent and you did everything you said you would. That is very refreshing for that kind of service and again, the quality was exceptional.

“A big thank you for making my 50th birthday last month a beautiful and delicious event. I was in some mad, stressed place and you bought calm and love with the food and evening. Thank you for being part of it.
Everyone said it was a great night and made many comments both about your food and just who you are.
Again, many thanks, will highly recommend you to one and all.
Best wishes and much appreciation”

“Thank you so much for coping so beautifully with the short notice to cater for our wedding. The food and service were amazing, helping to make the atmosphere for our special day wonderful. We were very impressed with how you put everything together so quickly and efficiently – as if we had planned it for months instead of at the last minute.
Your service helped to make our day enjoyable and lots of fun for us and our guests. Everybody loved the food!”
Thank you again, and best wishes

Dear Ronit,

What a magical celebration! We cannot thank you and your beautiful team enough. We absolutely loved planning the wedding with you. The entire weekend was perfect!

Thank you for inviting us into your home to taste your amazing cooking and meet your gorgeous family. We love your food and can’t get enough! We continued to eat leftovers on Monday night and even the labne on Tuesday for breakfast!

It’s obvious your team loves you as much as we do, they were so attentive and wonderful on the night and throughout, no detail was forgotten – from the petal runway to the chuppah, the presentation of the food, the lighting and menus, to finding us a spectacular venue at the eleventh hour – you were a star!

We have received countless texts, emails and phone calls letting us know what an unbelievable event it was. Many of our friends and our parent’s friends, who have been to so many weddings, said it was the best one they had ever been to. Words cannot describe the energy in Newrybar that day – it was incredible!

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the best day of our lives.

Love Rotem & Serena (24th November 2013)

Dear Ronit,

Big thank you to you and your team for the wonderful food and friendly service provided for our wedding.
We appreciated the time and effort you put in to working with us on the menu to ensure our taste buds were tantalized on our very special day.
We had many guests rave about how delicious all the dishes were, both canapés and mains, which was obvious when we saw all the empty plates.

We hope to have other celebrations in the future so we can eat your food again – or we’ll come to the cooking school!

Warm regards,

Gareth & Emma (26th October, 2013)

To Ronit and the wonderful staff at Open Table,

We wanted to thank you for everything you did for us and our guests at our wedding in Byron. Ronit, thank you for your time spent with us before the wedding via email, phone calls and Skype. You made us feel completely at ease and like everything was in good hands during the lead up to our wedding. Your staff were amazing on the day, nothing was a problem. They were friendly and professional and interacted with our guests to make it a fun laid back experience which is what we were hoping for on the day. The food and presentation was excellent! We can’t speak highly enough of you all. This was our second time having you cater a special event for us. The first was our engagement party and next the wedding.

We can’t wait for the next excuse to get up to Byron, catch up and eat some more of those amazing duck pancakes, arancini balls and mini fillet mignon!!

Thanks heaps,
Nix & Pete (26th October 2013)

Open Table was the icing on the cake for our special day 🙂 With their incredible service and delicious food, our wedding was the fun, filled celebration that we had always wanted. Their staff greet everyone with a smile and are so warm and lovely. The food is all fresh and full of bursting flavour that constantly leaves you wanting more! Open Table is so professional and organised but they still create such a vibrant and flowing environment through their fantastic food and service.

We would recommend them to absolutely everyone, as they are truly magnificent and we are so thankful to have had them.

Regards,

Dear Ronit

Jackie & I wish to thank you and your team for your catering service at our daughter’s wedding recently. Having a reception in the old dairy on our farm was not an easy assignment for you and the wet weather did not make things any easier. However your thorough preparation and the expertise of your team made for a very smooth operation. The food was very tasty, well presented and delivered with a smile. And the clean up was seamless.

Thanks again for your contribution to our daughter’s special day and we wish you and your team success in the future.

Warm regards

Jay & Jackie (4th December 2010)

Dear Ronit, (Open Table)
Thank you for the most outstanding wedding function. It exceeded all our wildest expectations.
Your organization skills were superb. Your constant interest and attention to detail made the whole process smooth and stress free. Your role as coordinator was flawless.
Working with you over the phone, email and skype was always enjoyable harmonious and fun and we have developed a great friendship.
Your recommended contractors (lighting, marquee, generator, transport etc) were all superb and extremely easy to work with and very reliable. This all added to the harmony of event.

Your role as Kosher Caterer over whole event including the Shabbat dinner, the Saturday Kiddush and most importantly the wedding function was amazing. The food with its Mediterranean flare was interesting, different and delicious.

Our Sydney, Melbourne, Perth and overseas visitors from London and New York were all blown away by the layout of the venue, atmosphere created by the Israeli musicians, the efficiency and friendliness of the staff and of course the endless supply of great food.

Thank you very much for the whole experience.

If any of your future clients would like to speak to us personally we would be more than happy to do so.
