Ahh la cart came out to my daughter's graduation party. What a great job they did, and our guests were all VERY happy with the food and service. The party was during a rainy day and we went ahead with it...Michael Curran was very accommodating by bringing a tent for guests to stand under while ordering food. Would definitely have ahh la cart back for other parties!

It was such a pleasant surprise to stumble on this place... we were treated to a delicious breakfast of eggs and awesome home fries and very fresh coffee. It was a beautiful morning and we were able to eat on the patio. Can't wait to go again!

We just used Ahh La Cart for my son's baptism party. Micheal was great to work with, he walked through the menu with us, let us know the most popular choices and the ingredients he uses for the food. He was more than willing to customize the menu for us and offered things off menu. We had gluten free and vegetarian people at the party so needed to have several options. We can't say enough good things! The portion sizes were big, the food was all made fresh and the fries were great! We would definitely use them again.

Michael catered a Christmas party for us and the food was spectacular! I'm not Greek but I have had a lot of Greek salads in my life and this was the best I ever tasted. We also served his Philly cheese steaks, chicken Romano sandwiches, chicken fingers (for the kids), and burritos, both chicken and veggie. The whole family loved the food and took home most of the leftovers. We moved to Monroe Township four years ago and found that the casual party food from most places is poor to mediocre.This is the best that I have found and we will definitely use Ahh la Carte again!

I have to thank Michael for providing a stellar menu and quick service to the guests of my father's 60th birthday. The weather turned pretty sour but Michael was accommodating and even offered to bring additional supplies like a tent and other food options to keep the guests happy. Even a week later many of the guests are still raving about Ahh La Cart and some are even looking to recommend him to friends!
Ahh La Cart definitely went above and beyond and we're looking forward to having them back for another event!

Absolutely fantastic. First off dealing with Michael leading up to my party was a breeze! He was super easy to get in touch with and accommodated all of my needs which even included my concerns for my guests with food allergies. As for the food-truly delicious, the cheese steak, sausage and pepper, grilled chicken wraps and the homemade dressings-- so yummy! They even grabbed fresh corn from the farm on the day of my party and that was a huge hit. I can't say enough about how efficient, accommodating and all around great this company was to work with!
