Testimonials
Vandana Dalton
"We really enjoyed all the food! Everything was delicious and full of flavor. The Kung Pao chicken was especially good. My kids are the biggest food critics, but even THEY loved the entire meal. Thank you for a wonderful dining experience, Manoj Cooks!"
Deondre Nabriet
"In March of 2024, I hosted a beta test event for the introduction of my cigar lounge / brand, Cigar Chef. Manoj catered the event and the food was absolutely amazing! I've had Indian cuisine growing up a few times as well as at different restaurants, but he topped all of them! Until this day, I still tell people how he will be featured as one of the menus we'll have once Cigar Chef officially opens up as a premiere cigar lounge here in Charlotte, NC. Thanks Manoj Cooks!"
Marie Anderson
"My husband and I were too tired to plan a night out but wanted something special - and Chef Manoj delivered the perfect solution! He created a beautiful five-course dinner right in our home that made us feel like we'd escaped to Italy. The food, the music, the atmosphere - everything was exceptional. We enjoyed an unforgettable, restaurant - quality evening without spending a fortune or even leaving the comfort of our own home."
Antonio Campos
"We had the best time celebrating my sister's birthday with a 5-course Mediterranean dinner for our family of four. Every dish was unique but fir perfectly with our theme. It felt like a little trip to Greece and Italy - trust me I've been! Even though it was in our home, it had all the magic of a fancy restaurant, just without the noise or distractions. It was such a special, relaxed night. It was the perfect way to celebrate together as a family."
Brenda Flores
"Manoj_Cooks catered a 4 day retreat for us. He provided lunch and dinner for 8 people. So many compliments on the variety of food and flavors. He provided detailed instructions, everything was labeled and most importantly everything was delicious. He was great to work with and was flexible on options and taking feedback on the menu creation. I will definitely be using his services again!"
