Our big Nate’s wedding review

Big Nate’s catered our wedding and everything went so smoothly! We went in to their restaurant for a tasting and met with a catering expert which was so helpful. They are priced very reasonably, and were very professional to work with the whole process. Food was fantastic! All our guests loved it. We’d totally recommend it to a friend.

Our wedding experience

My wife and I were pleased with Big Nate's Family BBQ and their service at our wedding! First off, the food was spectacular, we loved the brisket and the pulled pork, the coleslaw and mac n cheese as well were off the charts tasty. They were easily able to accommodate as well my wife and several of her family members who have gluten and dairy allergies.
They had great customer service, flexibility, and very reasonable pricing as well.
Highly recommend them to anyone getting married!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
