Delicious and affordable

Harvey helped make our day perfect! The food was delicious and affordable. We could not have asked for better service! We also used him for bartending services and everyone could not say enough words about the food and bartenders!

Fair Prices and Delicious Food

Harvey and his team at Fancy That! were a wonderful choice for our New Year's Eve wedding. His staff was friendly and fast with both bar service and dinner service. Harvey ensured that we did not run out of any bar selections during the entire event and that were was enough food for all guests to eat their fill. We chose to have a plated dinner and his team was able to get all 140 guests served within our limited time frame. The food was plated beautifully with large portions and he was extremely accommodating with dietary needs. Our guests are still raving about the prime rib!

AMAZING!! Hired Fancy That! to cater our wedding a few weeks ago and they are the best! The food was great, everyone loved the chocolate covered strawberries. They also do a full bar option that is priced per person, you cannot beat the quality and selection you get. Their set up looked great and very professional. I would recommend Fancy That! Bistro and Catering for all events!

The food was awesome and and the drinks were great. Everyone at my wedding loved it. The staff was very friendly and professional. They drove over an hour during a hurricane evacuation to be at my wedding. You would not be disappointed with them.

Great food!! We hired Fancy That initially for our wedding but when our venue required us to use the in-house catering we decided to use Fancy that for our rehearsal dinner. Harvey (owner) is an amazing chef and his staff is so very friendly and polite. From the beginning we had a great experience with Harvey. At our first tasting he literally fed us a meal, it was great!! All of the guests at the rehearsal dinner kept coming up to me and my fiancé commented on how delicious everything was. I absolutely LOVE his homemade cream puffs!!! At the end of the rehearsal dinner he boxed up what was left and set aside cream puffs for me. The fact that he remembered how much I loved them meant so much to me. He's a true professional and an extremely kind gentleman!

Fancy That is an excellent name for this fantastic restaurant & catering service. I have been to many weddings & the food was okay so happy that our food was excellent & everyone enjoyed it! The restaurant has excellent lunch specials during the week. Fancy that is excellent at catering for any type of event or to eat a yummy meal at. Fancy That is a jewel! It has become our favorite restaurant & we will use for catering whenever required. The owner, Harvey, has over 20 years of catering experience which is why they shine above the other caters & restaurants in Columbia SC. Once you try it you will be so glad that you did. The beef is so tender, best lasagna I have tasted, Bar B Q is so good, the vegetables are all delicious. Why cook when you can get such good food at reasonable prices from Fancy That!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
