We had a pretty unique Pakistani wedding at an art gallery in Ottawa a few weeks ago. One big issue with Ottawa is a major lack of South Asian vendors, with those in the city a) charging a lot of money, and b) not producing particularly great food. So we reached out to Zahid and Mohika at Aunty’s Kitchen, to see whether they would be willing to travel to Ottawa for the wedding, which they agreed to do for a tremendous price. They also supplied the rentals for our flatware and linens, which reduced the need for additional vendors. Taken as a whole they saved us A LOT of money versus a local vendor, but the best part of it all was the food, which was incredible. So much so that we still have people messaging us just to talk about how great the food was. They offered an incredible variety of dishes, and everything was just expertly prepared - even my very picky momma was floored by the quality of each dish. They arranged a local kitchen to do all the prep work, and prepared beautiful signage for the buffet, the entrance to the buffet and each individual seat. And on top of all of that they were a dream to work with - Zahid and Mohika treated us like family, checking in on us on the days leading up to the event and on the day of, and even after the wedding. They are simply good people, and people you can trust to do an incredible job with the menu on the most important day of your life. We simply cannot recommend Aunty’s Kitchen enough. It’s a tall task to drive almost 1,000km round trip, but they did it and gave us a meal to remember.

I just wanted to thank Zahid for everything. I have not gotten so many compliments on the food. From communication, Taste, quality, quantity and delivery everything was top notch!
Wanted to tell you that a lot of people took your information and kept on complementing on how delicious the food was wanted to personally say thank you!

We had read so many positive reviews about Aunty's Kitchen and decided to reach out to them for our July wedding. My husband and I are both from Sri Lanka but adore Middle Eastern cuisine. Zubair was able to have everything modified to our preference. The flavour was unmatched, the spice level was excellent (although I am Sri Lankan, I cannot handle much or any spice), and the portion sizes were fantastic. To take it one step further, Aunty's Kitchen had an excellent array of dessert options and even a vegan choice which can be super hard to find if you have vegan guests. Aunty's Kitchen was excellent to work with, arrived early to set up and provided exceptional customer service for our guests. They ensured everyone was well fed and continually checked in on us to make sure we had eaten. Also, their pricing is extremely reasonable compared to a lot of other catering companies which can charge an arm and a leg. However, they never compromise their taste or quality. We would 100% recommend them to ANYONE looking for Middle Eastern cuisine.

All the way from the selection of menu, to the staff and everything in between ESPECIALLY the food, was absolutely fantastic! I could not have imagined it being many other way! My favourite was the chicken tikka tacos and the steak! Perfect vendor for Halal south Asian and continental cuisine for all your courses from start to finish! Would definitely recommend and hire again!

It was so easy to work with Aunty’s Kitchen from creating a menu all the way to execution. The team was very flexible and understanding on the day when everything is extremely hectic. The Aunty’s team made it much easier since I didn’t have to worry about their tasks at all and were super punctual about everything. Highly recommend this as your caterers as the food was also incredible and all our guests were raving about it!

Aunty's Kitchen catered one of our wedding events on June 10, 2022 and I wanted to express my extreme gratitude and satisfaction for the services they provided to bring our event together on this day. Zahid was available and extremely helpful during the planning stages and was available and responsive at all times leading up to the event. The set up and service was seamless and complimented by all of our guests during the event. The food was enjoyed by all and in fact many guests asked for who catered the event. Zahid and his team did an excellent job and I would recommend Aunty's Kitchen for any of your catering needs for any of your events!

We were hoping to book Aunty's Kitchen for our backyard reception and as we were planning with them, Zahid was so helpful, attentive and wanted to make this a stress-free event for us. He came up with a personalized menu presentation for us and our needs with all the options and a tasting for our event which would have been in a few weeks. Unfortunately, with step 3 opening, we were able to do our reception in the banquet hall where we already had a hefty deposit, so we had to go that route. However, if we ever have another event to cater, we will definitely be using Aunty's Kitchen!!!

I definitely recommend Aunty's Kitchen.

Due to covid we decided on a 'minimony' and offered food boxes to our guests as they left ceremony (instead of plated or a buffet meal).
The service at Aunty's Kitchen is very friendly and the team guided us through the menu and offered a tasting. They helped us customize our food boxes and were flexible about cut off dates which was a huge stress relief during changing times.

On the day of the food arrived on time hot and delicious (and this is a through a snow storm)! :)

Aunty's Kitchen is definitely on top of our list as we plan our reception in 2021/2022.

Where do I begin with Aunty's Kitchen? From my first conversation with Zahid I knew we'd found the caterer for our wedding. With the unexpected changes of COVID Zahid was flexible, unendingly accommodating and committed to making sure our day was as special as it could be. The boxed meals provided were incredible, cost effective and the service on the day of was perfect. I would highly recommend Zahid and Aunty's Kitchen to anyone who is interested in receiving the highest quality of food and service on their wedding.

Excellent service. Great team of workers. Goes above and beyond to make sure your day is one the best.
Shout out to Zubair from Aunty's kitchen for taking care of all small little details on my wedding day and looking after last minute additions on the big day.
Good food. All the guest loved the food.
Highly recommended for your big day.
