We used Matt just yesterday for our son's 7th birthday party; he was great! I did base my "hiring" on the Yelp reviews and they were spot on. I, first, found him easy to do business with. He promptly responded to emails and answered questions. Then he showed up dressed to perfection and came prepared. Both kids and parents loved him and he did a great job engaging everyone, especially my son...and daughter. I thought his material was funny and he had everyone laughing. I had about (25) 6-8 year olds and I would definitely recommend using him.
