Norma and her team were excellent with execution on the day of the wedding. The food was excellent and guests are still talking about it! You can create your own menu with their expert help. Early in the planning, their email response was not quickly forwarded. Calls worked really well though, and there was regular communication in the 2-3 weeks prior to the day! We were very pleased with the quality and food value. Just be sure to confirm the hours that waitstaff will be on call during the reception.

Overall, our experience with Spoonbread was excellent. The food was amazing and Norma was able to perfectly tailor the menu to fit our Cajun/Creole New Orleans theme. In fact it was some of the best food I have ever had at a large wedding! The value was outstanding with a cost far less than every other estimate we received. During the planning stages it sometimes took a while to hear back from them, but all our concerns were eventually answered and we are extremely happy with the way things turned out. Unfortunately, one downside was an unprofessional member of the catering staff. One of the bartenders appeared to become intoxicated, was heavily over-pouring drinks, and was aggressively hitting on some of our wedding guests. Regardless of this, I would still recommend Spoonbread and would be happy using them to cater events in the future.

I hired Spoonbread to cater my September 2013 wedding. The food was wonderful and many of my guests told me so as well. They cater large events regularly, and the owner, Norma Jean, knows her business. They've covered many venues, including my wedding venue. On our very first meeting, Norma was even able to draw a picture of my reception area from memory, complete with what it would look like with all the tables and chairs set up. I was impressed! She works with a rental company and a liquor supplier. She does provide beer as well, but we decided to go with an outside beer supplier and Norma was totally fine with that.

I had to knock one star off because Norma was hard to reach between the signing of my catering contract (about 9 months before my wedding) up until a month before the wedding. I would call the restaurant and have to leave detailed messages with different staff members and many times I would get called back by other, different staff. Email wasn't a much better means, until about a month before the event. This was time-consuming and frustrating at times, especially for someone planning her own wedding. Perhaps, if Norma hasn't done so yet, Spoonbread can create a permanent catering division with staff members who handle each client exclusively from booking through the end of the event. Everything turned out beautifully the day of the wedding, so no harm, no foul. And Spoonbread's catering pricing was a fraction of other caterers' quotes, so it truly is a great value and I still highly recommend.
