Bobby is the most professional

When we did the tasting with Bobby months in advance the food was amazing. At the wedding, the food exceeded our expectations. Bobby personally made up our plates during the buffet and even served us dessert at our table. Bobby even gave us a very generous take-home dinner for us to eat the next day. I noticed Bobby treats his staff like family, he even was picking up plates with his 5 other servers. He was also very prompt to answer any questions and give great suggestions. I even plan on hiring him to do another daughter's quinceanera next May.

Must have caterer

David’s BBQ did the catering for my daughter’s wedding. They were AMAZING!!! I would highly recommend them! The food was delicious! Bobby and his team were fantastic and made the day so seamless. They were flexible and worked hard to make sure everything and everyone was taken care of. One of the best parts was their decorating. The decorations they had for us to use were gorgeous!! It was so wonderful to have all the decorations brought, set up, and cleaned up. It was an amazing day a lot in part to Bobby and David’s BBQ.
