Celeste is the best!

Celeste was so wonderful to work with! She was very helpful throughout the planning process and when we had to postpone due to Covid she was super flexible and did not charge anything to change the date. The food was amazing and we received so many comments on how delicious everything was. Book Mrs. J’s you won’t be disappointed! Highly recommend.

Best food and nicest people to work with!

Mrs. J's Catering catered my daughter's wedding this weekend and every dish was delicious. Everyone kept asking where our food came from and we happily told them. We could not have been happier! The staff were all so friendly and easy to work with. I highly recommend this caterer for any event you have. Thank you for our wonderful meal!

Breakfast for Dinner

Mrs.J's catering was the perfect pick for our wedding! We (I, the bride) have always had a unique vision to have breakfast for dinner at my wedding and Celeste and her husband delivered. I kept eating until I couldn't stop because I had to try everything, it was delicious. I want to redo my wedding just for the food. My new husband and I fought (I won) over the French Toast Casserole leftovers, it was amazing!

Slap your grandma good

Where to begin. Ms. Celeste is the warmest soul you will ever meet. I was welcomed with open arms to taste what I found to be some of the most delicious food I have ever put into my mouth. I was one of those difficult clients that wanted a specific food to match my wedding theme, and BOY, DID MS. CELESTE DELIVER. I had requested chicken Parmesan, but was on a limited budget. Ms. Celeste graciously created a chicken Parmesan casserole and THE BEST side dishes. I was curious to how the casserole would taste since I had never heard of such a thing, but again "BOY, DID MS. CELESTE DELIVER." After trying Ms. Celeste's food, I guarantee you won't have to look anywhere else. What really solidified my decision was the way Ms. Celeste treated both my now husband and myself. She was so kind and understanding to our budget, but understood that the food was a big deal to us. Ms. Celeste created a unique and special meal that my guests still rave about! Ms. Celeste is so warm, loving, and humble. She will treat you with the utmost respect while making your heart and tummy happy. I STRONGLY suggest you stop looking anywhere else and hire the lovely Ms. Celeste. You will not be disappointed.

Amazing food, Amazing service

Celeste helped prepare a delicious menu for our wedding that included BBQ, mac-and-cheese, and a fall vegetable medley. She did a great job communicating with us throughout the process and checking in with us when we were overwhelmed with all the wedding details, and our friends and family raved about the food. I would HIGHLY recommend Celeste and her team for any catering needs.

Wonderful!!!

First class catering all the way around! Having worked in the catering business in the past, I must say that Celeste impressed me on every level! The food is fabulous. The staff is super cordial. They were punctual and organized. They showed up, set up (even the cake pop table that we did not purchase from them), and started serving up the best southern food around before I even knew they were here (and it was in my backyard). They didn't bother me for anything; they just made it happen!!! If you are looking for a competent, professional, friendly caterer...look no further! Thank you, Celeste!!! You were an integral part in making my daughters wedding a huge success!!! You rocked it!!!
