Delicious food and on time delivery

A big shout out to Alvin for this customized Taco bar!! We, family of 40 people visited Gatlinburg on July 4th weekend and we’re looking for vegan/vegetarian catering options. I reached out to Alvin in June for the same and he happily agreed to cater our needs. He has a lot of vegetarian and vegan options in the menu but we wanted something more customized. The food was really yummy and delivered on time. I wanted to take better pictures but it was so good that our family just couldn’t wait. Thanks Alvin!

Delicious rehearsal dinner and reception meal!

We had a DELICIOUS rehearsal dinner meal - spinach and artichoke dip, soft pita wedges, Cesar salad, chicken marsala, carrots, and a variety of cheesecake!

Our wedding reception meal was strawberry spinach salad, baked potato, rolls, veggies, and some of the best steak I've ever had! The service was also great on both occasions!

I highly recommend River Plantation Conference Center & Catering, as my number one pick for local Caterers in the Smoky Mountain area. Not only is their food wonderful, but their service is outstanding. Michael, Matt, and Tyler of RPCC are extremely professional, and all go the extra mile on any occasion. Retro Peacock Photography has worked several events with RPCC, I am always impressed with their ability and desire to go above and beyond for every client. Fantastic food, great prices, and amazing service and staff. A++ RPCC keep up the awesome work!

I have DJ'd here several times and The River Plantation Conference Center is used a lot and everyone loves working with the team at RPC. They are easy to work with, have flexible options, and can fit it your next event budget! It is always great to DJ here because you know the client will have a wonderful time once the evening is over.
