I want to thank Eugene (provides estimates and solution), Allen and Ken (both take care of onsite operations) for their above and beyond work from the first initiation to the end of the event. I thoroughly enjoyed the entire process and was absolutely pleased with the presentation and quality of the food. Even my COO from the US went up to personally thank the team at the end of the event. Many guests even wrote in to thank us for the food and the positive experience they had at the Grand Opening Ceremony. I am an operations manager, relocated from the US to Singapore to set up a new subsidiary. Being a new kid on the block, I have little confidence (and trust) in entrusting a caterer to take care of the grand opening ceremony. One month before the grand opening, a relative highly recommended AMICI to me. That decision was the best I'd made. Eugene even looked beyond his scope of work to find me a solution when I told him that the venue where the grand opening was going to be held looked too "warehouse". Very quickly, he found me a solution which turned the warehouse-looking venue into an elegant looking bistro. If you are looking for a caterer who grooms employees with great sense of ownership, empathy and accountability, please engage Eugene, Allen and Ken of AMICI. All three of them accommodated my constant changes of menu selection and equipment rental without a sigh. I strongly recommend AMICI and would definitely be engaging these three gentlemen again, in all my future events, small or big. Thank you, Eugene, Allen and Ken, for transforming my otherwise warehouse-looking venue into a Grand Opening with a "wow" ! It is a shame that I cannot share the video due to company policy. I would, otherwise, be very happy to share their beautiful work.

We engaged AMICI Catering for our office Christmas party, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. The service was well-organised and professional, the food was really delicious, and the overall setup was beautifully done, creating a very festive and enjoyable atmosphere for our team. We would like to give special thanks to Eugene for his great support and coordination. He was very responsive and went above and beyond to assist us, even accommodating urgent last-minute add-on requests for certain dishes. His effort and dedication truly helped make the event a success. Our sincere thanks as well to Danial and Ben, who handled the setup and teardown efficiently. They arrived on time, set everything up nicely, and ensured that the area was clean and tidy before leaving, which we greatly appreciated. Thank you to the entire AMICI team for contributing to a smooth and memorable office Christmas celebration. Highly recommended!🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Big thank you to Eugene who helped me arrange my girl’s party. I came to know about Amici from my colleague, and ordered from them for our team lunch (bento boxes) and our team was very satisfied with the food and presentation of the food. When it’s my turn to organize a personal event, I didn’t hesitate to contact Eugene again and he was very helpful in all my queries. I asked a lot of questions, requested for changes in the default menu, and changed my order at least 2x but Eugene was very patient with me and delivered what I wanted! The food was very nice and delicious. Kudos to the chef as well. We especially love the chicken cacciatore and the decadent chocolate cake, which is not too sweet and very appropriate for some of us trying to enjoy desserts but still watch our sugar. I don’t really eat veggies, but I had a guest who was pregnant who’s watching what she eats very closely. She was very happy that not only we have veggies on the menu, but veggies that are good and tasty! The amount of food was more than enough for the number of pax we ordered, and it makes me want to arrange another party and book their service again! Maybe I’ll try the Asian menu and carving station next time? They arrived quite a bit early to arrange the table setting and also cleaned and wrapped up on time, which is much appreciated. The table setting is nice, professional, and clean— complete with environment-friendly disposables, which is a plus. Overall, the service is top notch and I feel that it’s worth it for the food and service provided. Thanks Eugene and team and hope to work with you again next time!

Hands down, the Amici team always lives up to the highest expectations and standards. The food is top-notch made even more exceptional by the consistently excellent service they provide. Due to a last-minute cancellation of our previous order at 4pm, I reached out to Ethan, who immediately reassured me that he and the team could still deliver a full Christmas buffet within an extremely short lead time. Huge credit to Ethan who was so on the ball and also to Chef Haoming and the entire team working tirelessly behind the scenes, as well as Vivian for managing the last-minute arrangements so smoothly despite the tight timeline. Our celebration was truly elevated because of the food. The chicken roulade and salmon were highly praised and the beautifully curated desserts (snowman themed!) were thoughtfully done, definitely brought smiles to everyone’s faces. Highly recommended and it’s not just for the quality of the food but for the dedication, professionalism and heart of the Amici team. Thank you for helping us create such wonderful memories through your food. Super good tip: don’t miss their infused peach muscat, mix it with gin and it’s absolutely bomb. 🍑✨

We’ve had a consistently great experience with Amici. The food is always good, thoughtfully prepared, and reliably comforting — which is honestly no small thing. Huge thanks to Eugene, our account manager, who has been incredibly supportive and attentive throughout, and to Willie, the CEO, whose care and hospitality really come through in both the food and the way the team runs things. It’s a place you return to not just for the food, but for the people behind it. Highly recommended.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Yamaguchi Catering charge per pax?›
Yamaguchi Catering uses a per-pax pricing model. Singapore market norms for event catering run from roughly S$15–25 per pax for a standard buffet (minimum approximately 30 pax), S$25–40 per pax for a premium buffet, S$18–30 per pax for a mini-buffet (minimum 8–15 pax), S$8–18 per pax for bento delivery, and S$30–60 per pax for live-station setups. Wedding banquet sit-down pricing at hotels or restaurants is typically quoted per table of 10. Confirm what is included in the quoted rate — delivery and setup, chafing dishes and warmers, a buffet attendant on-site (typically S$80–150 per attendant if billed separately), and waste collection. Ask about the delivery surcharge for non-central addresses and whether GST and service charge apply. See the full catering cost guide for Singapore →
What dietary options and halal certification does Yamaguchi Catering offer?›
No regulatory licences, including a MUIS halal certificate, are currently listed for Yamaguchi Catering. If halal certification is required for your guest list, confirm directly whether the company holds a valid MUIS licence — 'halal-friendly' or 'no pork no lard' menus without MUIS certification do not meet the standard for guests who require strictly certified halal food. Also ask about vegetarian (lacto-ovo versus vegan), no-beef options for Hindu guests, gluten-free, and nut-free dishes. For mixed dietary events, confirm cross-contamination protocols and whether separate serving stations can be arranged. Most caterers of this scale offer a menu tasting for orders above a minimum value — request one before paying the deposit.
Is Yamaguchi Catering licensed and how is food safety handled?›
Legitimate caterers hold an SFA Food Shop or Catering Licence with a hygiene grade — A is highest, then B, C, D. No SFA licence is currently listed for Yamaguchi Catering; confirm this directly and ask for the hygiene grade before booking. For halal menus, a MUIS certificate should be visible on the company's website or available on request — none is currently recorded. Cooked food should be served within a roughly 2–3 hour cooked-to-served window for hot dishes, maintained above 60°C, and cold dishes held below 5°C per SFA guidelines. Confirm setup arrival time, hot-hold and replenishment protocols during the event, and the policy for safe handling of leftovers. Confirm the SFA Food Shop or Catering Licence (and MUIS halal certificate where required), book a tasting before paying the deposit, and put the per-pax rate, minimum headcount, dietary mix, delivery and setup window, and balance schedule in writing.
