Wonderful and quality Caterers
Painted Plate catered our wedding and they did a fantastic job! From the very beginning, Shantel and Randi were incredibly kind, helpful, and easy to work with. My husband I wanted to have an entirely vegan wedding menu, and after receiving several bland vegetable-only menus from many local caterers in the area, we finally found Painted Plate. Randi and Shantel worked with us to create a delicious and appealing menu for all our guests. During our tasting, Shantel, Randi and the chef Brad were very responsive and open minded to any feedback. They also worked seamlessly with my venue (Covington Gardens) to attend a walk through of the venue prior to our wedding day to ensure everything ran smoothly.
Painted Plate did our bar service as well and Shantel helped us come up with Signature cocktails that were a huge crowd pleaser. In addition, she was flexible and understanding when we had our numbers shift, even up to a day before the wedding!
On wedding day, the event manager Chris and his team were professional, efficient, and ensured the entire evening ran seamlessly. The presentation of the food during the cocktail hour and dinner was tasteful and beautiful. Many of our guests (who were non-vegan) were raving about the appetizers and dinner. My husband and I wholeheartedly recommend Painted Plate! -

Cannot Recommend them ENOUGH
The entire Painted Plate team is incredible to work with, from creating a menu to executing the food at my wedding, they worked with me every step of the way. I had so many guests come up to me after the wedding raving about the wait staff and how friendly and helpful they were, and not to mention how incredible the food was! Brad and his team truly know how to create a delicious, exciting menu and make sure there is enough food for everyone. If you're thinking about booking them PLEASE DO, it would be a shame not to use them. Thank you so much Painted Plate team! -

Flexible, creative caterer for wedding on private property
Painted Plate and the team helped bring our wedding to life. Their food is high quality, gluten-free, with attention to detail at every corner. On top of that, Brad and his team helped bring some of our ideas to life and interjected much-needed opinion during the planning process. Our wedding was outdoors on a farm and the Painted Plate team met with us on several occasions to see how best to serve the venue. Ten day prior to our wedding day, we made a change and decided to have our rehearsal dinner on the farm, and Painted Plate stepped up, put a menu together, and delivered.
Some other areas that stuck out that we were particularly impressed with:
The staff's professionalism (particularly, Chris, the ops manager)
Adaptability - including rain on the wedding day
Timely responses
Respect for the property and our guests.
The clean up! Great job. -

Awesome Catering Company
I can not say enough great things about Painted Plate! Working with Brad and Randi Semon was a absolute pleasure!! They catered our wedding back in Oct and I am just now getting around to writing a review however the food was phenomenal, their team of staff was courteous and professional and they were so accommodating with special requests we had. I highly recommend them and would use them again for future events. We had MULTIPLE wedding guests go out of their way to tell us how great the food was. :) Always a good sign!

Painted Plate ROCKS!!!
I can not say enough about Painted Plate! Working with Brad and Randi Semon was a absolute pleasure!! Painted Plate catered my daughter's wedding reception and Sunday wedding brunch.
From arranging a tasting, consulting on best possible execution of dinner, wine selection, venue set up, Painted Plate made our celebration perfect.
Our family and friends raved about the food and service. Comments ranged from "this is the best meal I have ever had at any wedding" to "the catering staff was so engaged and polite, it felt like I was at my favorite resturant"!
We will hire Painted Plate for all our catering needs moving forward. Look no farther, if you can book them, do it! -

Delicious Food & Great service
We got married here and loved it!
-Outdoors: Small vineyard we used for ceremony
-Indoors: New Orleans vibe - 2 floors with Iron balconies and lots of brick! (Note- no elevators)
-Food: Delicious! We chose to do Meat (Dairy Free) and they were able to accommodate our Kosher/Nut-free/Vegan guests, too. We chose mediterranean themed seated meal.
-Cake- They allowed us to bring in our own.
-Painted plate included linen, chairs, tables, food, & venue so great way to cut down on number of vendors
-Staff - Very friendly and easy to work with!
-Parking- Plenty available
-Cons- Venue is "L" shape so if party is more than 150 people there may be some blocked site lines; We planned out wedding remotely so at times response to email was slower than desired.
-Other Vendors we loved: DJ & Photo Booth - OnTargetDJ; Flowers - Bears, Balloons & Beyond; Wedding Planner- Renee Miller; Photo- Ashley Stone.-

One of the elements of a wedding that we felt the most pressure was with the catering and what we hoped would be an incredible dining experience for our guest. From the moment we met Brad and Randi with Painted Plate Catering, our stress began to melt away as well realized not only the level of professionalism but also the creative talents of Brad. Randi maintained a prompt and detailed communication with us that eliminated our worries. From Brad's suggestions of hors d'oeuvres before the meal to the meal itself, each item was painstakingly thought through from the combinations of tastes to the freshness of the ingredients. When we discussed a late addition of a post-meal snack from the heavy dancing, Brad again came through with a delightful suggestion of gourmet cheese sandwiches which were a huge hit!
Great successes do not end with planning and suggestions and Brad and his team executed flawlessly. The wait staff was efficient and friendly. Brad presented the menu and everything flowed beautifully. Needless to say, the food was a huge hit and its presentation outstanding.
If you see a meal as a special gift to your friends and family on your wedding day, you should consider Brad at Painted Plate to give you the direction and creativity that takes it beyond an idea to wonderful reality.

Painted Plate was wonderful to work with and did a fantastic job for our wedding. When we initially reached out, we had only provided a general theme for the food, but did not have specifics in mind. Brad came up with a menu that was perfect on the first try! Randi was so responsive to messages and was patient with me as we worked through many details regarding food, linens, cutlery, etc. In addition to the regular buffet dinner and the cocktail food, we also had guests with specific dietary needs. Painted Plate worked with us and was able to provide fantastic meals for these guests with specific requirements, and they did so at no extra charge to us. The day of the event, the staff were professional, efficient, and managed the event perfectly. We got many compliments on the food from all of our guests. My husband and I did not eat much throughout the reception, but Painted Plate was kind enough to pack us individual to-go boxes with a sampling of all of our food items that we were able to enjoy the next day. The food was well worth the wait! I would highly recommend Painted Plate to anyone looking to cater any event! -

The Painted Plate exceeded our expectations for our daughter's wedding. The food and wine selection was fabulous and the people from The Painted Plate were awesome - the coordinator as well as the team on site for the wedding. In addition their focus on customer service was professional and right on target. We found them responsive, flexible and extremely reliable. As a result, the wedding was a huge success and we were able to truly enjoy ourselves. We received many compliments about the food from our guests. I highly recommend The Painted Plate. -

The Painted Plate was very easy to work with and accommodating. They showed up right on time and did a great job at my wedding. People kept going back for 2nds/3rds! Very easy to work with and I felt no concern on my wedding day that they would do anything other than a great job. Thank you Painted Plate! -

Allison is amazing, she was willing to make changes and work with me without complaint. I made changes the week of my wedding and she was able to accommodate my requests. The wait staff was BEYOND courteous and professional. I absolutely adored the bartender, Mason. He was so polite and kind. My meal was delicious, hot food was hot and cold food was cold. The sweet tea was on point also. And I never had to ask more than once for anything. -

The Painted Plate catered the reception for our daughter's wedding. The planning process was awesome. We worked with Allison, who walked us through each step. She was fun and professional. We had great choices so that we could make it match our style. We had a wonderful tasting which helped us narrow down our appetizers, entrees, and sides. The day of the wedding, they arrived perfectly and set up a beautiful buffet. Everything was both appealing looking and absolutely delicious. The staff was so professional and friendly and added to our wonderful day. We had a great experience and would highly recommend them. -

Allison and Brad are such a great team! The Painted Plate made all our culinary dreams come true for our wedding. The food was delicious and the service was great! During our planning, they gave us a tasting during one of their company's busiest weeks of the year. As our point of contact, Allison always got back to us within a business day and did everything she said she would do...she made our cocktail hour and reception come to life! -

I LOVED the food from The Painted Plate! The beef and chicken were AMAZING! I heard nothing but great reviews about the mash potatoes and they were GREAT! Kathryn was amazing and answered my emails and calls the same day! The staff and waiters were amazing! They even cleaned the cake plates for my cake decorator and boxed up the top layer and wrapped in plastic wrap so in could go straight in the freezer! Everything went great with out a problem! -

The Painted Plate was DELICIOUS!!! Everyone loved their food at the reception. The beef was just the right amount of rare/cooked. Kathryn from The Painted Plate was so helpful during the whole planning period and always returned my emails/calls the same day. I am so glad I chose The Painted Plate. The servers were the best I have ever had. I would choose The Painted Plate again in a heartbeat!!! -

I worked with Kathryn to plan our menu. She was great to work with. The Painted Plate offers a great selection of options.
We decided on a stations buffet. All the food was wonderful! Our guests kept commenting how much they enjoyed their meals. My favorite dish was the shrimp and grits. We were very pleased and would definitely recommend them. -

Painted Plate was a great caterer to work with. Starting out we knew that we wanted BBQ as our main course, so that shaped what I was looking for when researching and contacting caterers. While Painted Plate was not the cheapest, they were still reasonably priced. I ended up selecting them because the food was amazing (I tried it at both a wedding show and a private tasting), they could do what I was looking for and the Events and Sales Manager, Allison, was wonderful and easy to work with! She made the process as easy as possible even though I was planning the wedding long-distance, and accommodated any requests I had. She was also very innovative, and helped better any ideas I had so all our food turned out perfectly. Allison also recommended the bakery we used for our wedding cakes (Easy Peasy Decadent Desserts), and it ended up being incredible!
I still think back and am excited about how good the food was, and still get compliments on it from friends and family. I would highly recommend Painted Plate to anyone wanting a caterer in the Triad area. -

The Painted Plate is the exclusive caterer of the venue that we chose, The Empire Room. At first, I was a little nervous because I wouldn't have an option of which caterer to use, but this caterer was AMAZING! The staff is friendly and the food does NOT taste like catering food (if you know what I mean). All of our 200 guests were raving about how great the food was. It's fresh, flavorful, and since they have their own kitchen at The Empire Room, basically homemade! We would 100% recommend The Painted Plate. -

The Painted Plate was a joy to work with for our wedding. They were accommodating, quick to respond, and offered a scrumptious array of cuisine selections. In fact, our planning with them took place so early in the process and with such ease that I almost forgot how wonderful it was!
In terms of food quality, we were actually required to use their services because our reception took place at the Empire Room in downtown Greensboro. For this reason, we cannot truly compare to other catering vendors in the area. Nonetheless, we've been to many weddings together, and the quality and array of their selections was exquisite and as tasty as any we've had. We had appetizers, salad, and a full buffet. When we met with them prior to the wedding, they prepared a "mini buffet" with numerous selections for us to sample. The food was unbelievably tasty, and when the wedding day came, it was prepared consistently, i.e. the quality did not drop in the slightest when preparing for 150 people instead of just 2.
There is a wide range of flexibility offered in terms of buffet/plated, dinner choices, and appetizers. We honestly had a hard time choosing! The only (very minor) issue for us was that we could only choose two sides with the buffet option we selected, but this was overshadowed vastly by everything else!
The prices were good, but it's going to be a bit expensive to do an elegant dinner. There's no way around that, really. Again, it's a bit difficult for us to speak objectively since we did not meet with other vendors in the area. Nonetheless, for the price-per-plate, we are confident that our guests received an extraordinary, top-quality meal, and for that we are truly grateful to the Painted Plate.
We strongly recommend their services, whether working with the Empire Room or not! -

We had a great time working with Painted Plate. They helped us be really creative with our menu for appetizers, coffee, and the main courses. We even brought in our own recipe and they made it! I was so thrilled with the presentation and quality of food. The event staff worked really hard to be sure everything was done correctly as well. I would absolutely recommend them! -

Shop around and look for someone who will work with you regarding being flexible with cost and menu. Try and talk to someone who is familiar with the catering service. -

Great food the buffet was gorgeously displayed and well staffed. They worked to ensure every detail of the food and beverage was exceptional. They offer a wide range of packages and services and work with you to get it right. -

My complaint was never fully addressed
I was horrified when I entered the reception to find the memory table for my mother in-law covered in cheap plastic! I contacted the vendor for a refund and was not even given an apology, they blamed the venue. The company should have owned the mistake and had empathy for the way we felt. -
