    Delicious!

    We hired DJ Lev for our wedding at Highland Brewing Company, he respected our requests for music genres and the dance floor was never empty! Lev did a fantastic job of reading the crowd and every important song was played in perfect timing. Highly recommend!

    Delicious food

    Delicious food and great service! All our guest loved the food and especially raved about the green chili grits! They were easy to communicate with and clear with pricing each time we made adjustments to our menu. My only complaint is that we hired them for full service and about 6-8 months after we had our contract with them they reorganized and got rid of full service. We then had to hire outside staffing which cost us a little more money, stress and time. Other than that I would hire them again to cater.

    Can't beat BBQ!

    We hired Luella's to cater our wedding and couldn't be happier - it was delicious and our guests loved it! We also had them deliver and set up the buffet which was amazingly helpful. They were easy to work with and very accommodating, especially when we had to reschedule our wedding due to COVID. Highly recommend!

    Simply the best!

    We’re so happy we went with Luella’s! Everything was so delicious! It was by far the best deal for the amount of food we had. We order appetizers for cocktails hour and went with chicken and brisket for dinner. Highly recommend their Mac n Hoop! It was all so so good!

    Delicious food and great service!

    I loved working with Luella's. They communicated well, were flexible when my final RSVPs came in, and answered all my questions throughout the planning process. On the day of, they were so kind and helpful and the service was great. The food was delicious and my guests devoured it. I got so many compliments. I really recommend them!

    Luella's Bar-B-Que's reply:

    Thank you so much Peggy! We loved bringing you and your guests some great BBQ. Congratulations again!

    excellent food and great to work with!

    If you want classic and delicious NC BBQ, Luella’s is the place! The food at our wedding was so great (the cheese grits were a particular hit), and the Luella’s team was amazing to work with. I would definitely recommend Luella’s catering for any wedding!

    Delicious and great service!

    Luella’s provided us with catering and bar tending service at our wedding. They were so professional and attentive. The food was excellent and so many of our guest told us how much they enjoyed it. We had 130 guests and their price was half of what all the catering companies wanted.

    Great Food and Communication

    We visit Luella's restaurants quite frequently, so using them for our wedding catering was a no brainer when we decided we wanted bbq for the reception. Communication throughout the entire process was great, and delivery the day of the wedding was prompt. Everyone complimented the food. Luella's did not disappoint!!

    Best Catering in WNC

    A close friend of our recommended Luella’s Bar-B-Que to us for our wedding. My husband and I were a little skeptical at first, simply because neither of us had ever eaten there before. However, we were planning a semi-destination wedding, so we trusted our friend, and we are so glad that we did! They are affordable, their food is delicious, and I cannot go on enough about their service! The entire catering team was beyond amazing, as was the food. The meat literally melts in your mouth, the baked beans were sweet and delicious, the potato salad was perfect, and the mac and cheese was some of the best we’ve ever had. We received countless compliments on our catering. Our caterer was such a hit that we are still asked about it from our wedding guests. If you want yummy, affordable food that balances southern tradition with elegance and professionalism, this is your place! Thank you again, Luella’s!

    Awesome food!

    The food was just as fantastic as eating within one of their restaurants. Our wedding had pork, tempah, corn on the cob, green beans, corn bread, salad, and cookies for dessert. A few guests had restrictive diets, but Luella’s was very accommodating to them. We had received high praise from everyone on all the food. Even the leftovers we got to keep tasted just as good the next day.

    De-Frickin-Licious

    Let me say first - YUMMY! Luella's food is absolutely delicious. They catered our cocktail hour,and dinner for our wedding, and it was a wonderful experience. All of our guests raved about how delicious the food was, saying it was some of the best wedding food they had ever had. Marla made all of the prepping for the wedding so easy and the day of catering staff was a delight. If you are looking to have happy bellies and a wonderful experience, go with Luella's for your event!

    Great food

    We had bbq at our wedding from Luella’s and everyone loved it. They were super easy to work with, responsive and delicious. I would definitely use them again.

    I could not have been more pleased. Throughout the entire process, Luella's catering staff was incredibly friendly and good to work with. The food was amazing. Couldn't beat the quality for the price for my wedding dinner. They took care of all the setup and cleanup and went above and beyond. Can't recommend highly enough.

    We chose Luella's to cater our wedding and were so incredibly lucky that they hadn't been booked for that weekend! All the planning was done through Marla, who was really easy to work with. My husband and I tried to make our wedding green (all of our centerpieces were recyclable) and were thrilled to find out that Luella's had compostable paper products that we could use. Marla even sent us a picture so we could see what they looked like. Our guests loved the hoop pimento cheese during our cocktail hour (so did I!) and were so excited to find out that barbecue was on our dinner menu. We went with their brisket and smoked turkey breast (the turkey is my favorite). It's almost been a month since we got married and we are still receiving compliments on the catering. Just yesterday, one of our guests said he was going to be disappointed on Thanksgiving because the turkey would not taste like Luella's smoked turkey breast. :) Thank you SO much for making us and our guests so happy!

    YUM! Luella's was delicious and Marla was very pleasant to deal with! We had a laid back mountain-top reception at The Cabin Ridge in Hendersonville, and Luella's BBQ was the perfect fit. Our guests raved about how good the food was, and they packaged up the leftovers for us (which we'll be happily eating for the next couple of weeks)!

    Luella's BBQ did an absolute amazing job catering for our wedding. The venue we were married at does not have much to offer as far as a kitchen and facilities to use. However, Luella's rocked it. All the guests were extremely pleased and had nothing but nice things to say after the delicious food. The staff was very friendly and went above and beyond to ensure our day went smoothly.

    Luella's was an amazing choice for our backyard wedding! They provided us with a pit and smoker (with pitmaster), and a whole pig's worth of pulled pork and very flexible sides. They had a lot of delicious vegan or dairy-free options for our guests with dietary constraints, and they also provided bartenders to serve our alcohol (which we purchased ourselves). Marla, who was our point of contact, was incredibly nice and very responsive to all of our questions- she in fact sought me out the day of the wedding to say hello and congratulate me, and then sent us a follow-up thank you note! We had appetizers and the main course provided by Luella's, and it was all so tasty. Our guests are still raving about the food a month later! We had an amazing experience with Luella's and highly recommend it for both weddings and events and just for some great BBQ if you're in Asheville!

    These guys were amazing. I booked them strictly from reviews I had read online as I was planning my NC wedding from Florida. They did not disappoint. Marla was great at being in contact with me, working out every detail and making sure I had no worries leading up to the wedding. Once the staff arrived, they were wonderful. Everybody commented on how friendly and helpful the staff were and they left our kitchen completely spotless. Now, the food, oh the food. It was so delicious. I would love an entire plate of the brisket on sweet potato chips with pickled Okra. The pork and chicken were fabulous and none of us could say enough about the Mac and Cheese. It was such the perfect menu for our mountain wedding. The bartenders were fabulous and everybody was just so professional and easy to work with. Thank you Luella's for helping make our wedding the most perfect day. I would tell anybody who is looking for the best BBQ in town, to find you guys. Simply delicious. Thank you.
