Perfect Rehearsal Dinner

We had City Barbeque cater our rehearsal dinner at Catawba Falls Events, and everything was absolutely delicious! The delivery and setup went flawlessly—they were on time and incredibly organized, which made the whole experience stress-free.

We actually ran a bit late coming back from the rehearsal and were worried the brisket and pulled pork might have dried out while waiting—but it was the complete opposite. Everything was perfectly warm, tender, and incredibly moist. You could tell a lot of care went into the food and preparation.

We couldn’t have been happier and would strongly recommend City Barbeque for any event!

City BBQ was the best decision we made for our wedding food! Guests are still talking about the BBQ flavors, and mac & cheese. Everything was hot, flavorful, and plentiful and the staff handled set-up and service flawlessly!

No complaints at all!

Food was phenomenal, service was perfect, and Brittany answered my many questions and helped us pick the right food for our special day. All of the guests raved about the food - I’d use City BBQ over and over again with how wonderful of an experience we had.

Amazing Service, Amazing Food!

I cannot recommend City BBQ enough for catering. I hired them for my intimate wedding and they went above and beyond with answering any questions I had! Brittany was my point of contact for catering and she was so amazing to work with. I had to completely change locations for my wedding due to hurricane Helene in less than a week and Brittany was more than accommodating with my request. The food was delicious, hot and beautifully displayed and I did not have to lift a finger. If you are on the fence, book them, you will not regret it!

Amazing food, amazing service!

City Barbeque helped make the catering planning for our wedding easy and stress-free. All of the options as well as the free tasting made for a very individualized and personalized package. People always say you won't eat at your wedding, but booking with City Barbeque, they ensure that the bride and groom do enjoy their food! They made us a plate and delivered it so we could at least have a bit to eat! They also packaged us up a to-go bag to eat afterwards with the kindest handwritten note on the bag. I cannot recommend them enough for your wedding or any catering event!
