Perfect Choice!!!

I am so glad we went with City BBQ. Not only was it delicious and so satisfying after all the craziness of getting married, but the caterers were so amazing. They honestly handled everything themselves, and they needed me like one time for a signature and very kindly brought it to me once I was sitting and eating so it wasn’t like another thing to go do. Everyone loved the food and they cleaned up, made sure to check how we wanted things before they left, just an amazing job.

Highly Recommend City BBQ

We used City BBQ for our vow renewal, and we couldn’t have been happier with our experience! From the planning process through the end of our celebration, everything was wonderful.

Dani was amazing to work with during the ordering process. She was incredibly responsive, patient with all of my questions, and so accommodating when I made changes to our menu. She helped guide me through the different options and quantities and made recommendations that helped me feel confident in our final menu. Planning food for a larger group can be stressful, and she made the process so easy!

The food was absolutely amazing, and we received so many compliments from our guests. Everyone loved the menu, and quite a few people even went back for seconds! We had plenty of food for our entire party and still had leftovers, so the portions were perfect.

The buffet presentation was beautiful as well. City BBQ did such a great job setting everything up, and the cast iron serving pieces really elevated the look and made the buffet feel special for our event.

The catering staff was wonderful and went above and beyond throughout the evening. They assisted with cleanup, helped cut and serve our cake, and even packaged all of our leftovers for us to take home at the end of the night. Those extra touches were so appreciated and allowed us to enjoy our celebration without having to worry about all the little details.

Everything was delicious, plentiful, beautifully presented, and handled with such great service from beginning to end. We would absolutely recommend City BBQ for catering and would happily use them again for another event!

Wedding Catering Done Right

I am very glad that we chose City BBQ to cater our wedding. They were the first company that we looked into, and we quickly realized that we didn't have to look any further. Dani did a fantastic job from coordinating the tasting to all of the communication leading up the big day. I love how responsive she was to our needs throughout the entire process. Everything she did felt very personalized and thorough. Rose and Megan did a phenomenal job on wedding day and even checked on us several times to take our plates and see if we needed anything else which was a super nice touch! If you are looking for a caterer you can count on, look no further.

We used City BBQ for my daughter's wedding. The whole experience was fabulous. Our catering consultant was friendly and knowledgeable and a pleasure to deal with. The catering staff was on point and very professional. They gladly answered any questions the guests had about the food and were very helpful. I would highly recommend them for any catering event. Amazing food and amazing service.

Simply the best ❤️

We used City BBQ to cater my in-laws’ 40th anniversary party, and I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience. We hosted around 80 guests, and everything from start to finish was absolutely seamless.

The food was incredible and a huge hit with everyone. We received so many compliments throughout the night on how delicious everything was. It was flavorful, fresh, and perfectly suited for a large gathering.

What truly made the experience stand out, though, was the staff. Dani Drakulich was amazing to work with during the planning process. She guided us every step of the way, answered all of our questions, and made sure every detail was exactly right. She made the entire process feel easy and stress-free, which meant so much to us while planning a big event.

Twila, who was there the day of the event, went above and beyond in every way. She kept the food stocked and looking great, was incredibly kind and attentive to all of our guests, and even stepped in to help with things that weren’t part of her role. Her presence made such a difference, and we are so grateful for her.

Dani and Twila truly made our experience with City BBQ exceptional. If you’re considering them for an event, I would recommend them wholeheartedly. They helped make our celebration so special and memorable. ❤️
