Definitely Recommend for Weddings!
Under the Oak incredible catering meals truly helped make our special day unforgettable! We were very impressed by the passed appetizers and the dinner foods. We heard nothing but compliments from our guests and the braised beef was a crowd favorite! Their food helped bring our whole vision to life. We would definitely recommend their services to anyone looking to book them in the future. Thank you to everyone at Under the Oak for creating memorable moments that will last us a lifetime on our wedding day!Under the Oak incredible catering meals truly helped make our special day unforgettable!

Exceptional
I can't say enough about Under the Oak. They were by far the easiest to work with when it came to budget. I felt like other companies were really trying to hike up the cost. The food was DELICIOUS. I had so many guests compliment the food which is not often the case when it comes to wedding food. The whole experience working with Under the Oak was seamless and enjoyable. I highly recommend them for any event.I can't say enough about Under the Oak. They were by far the easiest to work with when it came to budget.

Book them now, we can't say enough great things about Lara, Blake and their team!
Lara, Blake & their team are the absolute best! You never hear how good the food is at weddings because usually it isn’t. But our guests raved about how AMAZING the food was. We couldn’t agree more. Lara took time to meet with us to understand our tastes, what we were looking for and most importantly how she could tailor our experience to make our night exactly what we wanted. She was extremely flexible when we wanted to change up our order. And their team delivered! The food was amazing, lines were extremely efficient and we couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you Lara, Blake and all involved who helped make the meal truly amazing and memorable.Lara, Blake & their team are the absolute best!

We cannot thank you enough for the excellent job you and your staff did at our daughter’s wedding. We are in that stage in life that it seems we are going to a wedding every month. You guys were leaps and bounds better than any other caterer we have experienced. Trust us, we have been paying attention.
Your wait staff and bar tenders were spot on!! Blending into the background and getting the food out so quickly. They were responsive, polite and very detail oriented. And the food, WOW!!!! Absolutely everything from the appetizers, salad and main dishes were incredible. And I know this may sound odd, but the food was hot (like it should be). There were so many of our guest the next day that their number one comment was how awesome the food was.
Thank you so much our daughter's day so special!!

All our guests raved about the food.
Under the Oak was top notch! Our guests ranted & raved about the quality of the food. As coming from a family of foodies, our wedding food was very important to us. Under the Oak did not disappoint. All the food (apps, buffet, dessert) was delicious. Would 100% use their services again and recommend to others. 5+ stars!Under the Oak was top notch!

Under The Oak
We were so glad that we went with Under The Oak. A little bit of a smaller company around, but the food was amazing and so was the service. Laura was so helpful throughout the whole process. We got a great selection. We opted for a plated meal that our guests raved about. Highly recommend for your next big event!We were so glad that we went with Under The Oak.

Best Wedding Caterer in the Triangle
There was one thing we knew for sure about vendors for our wedding day, that was our caterer: Under the Oak Catering. Since my husband had worked with Blake in the past, he knew that they were the only people he could trust to cater his wedding. We loved their dedication to local and sustainable ingredients, and they were more than happy to work with our family style menu. From the perfect cocktail hour with grand charcuterie display and passed appetizers, to the salads, and finally the entrees and sides, everything tasted delectable. To this day we are told it is the best wedding food our guests have ever had and they ask how they can get more of it. Don’t pass up the opportunity for Under the Oak Catering to be your wedding caterers, you will not regret it.There was one thing we knew for sure about vendors for our wedding day, that was our caterer: Under the Oak Catering.

The best food!
Under the Oak Catering provided us with the best wedding day food! We are so happy we chose to work with them. The food they make is delicious! They have a variety of menus to choose from and are very accommodating to guests with food allergies, etc. Our guests raved about their ham biscuits during cocktail hour and their garlic mashed potatoes.

Under the Oak catering was fantastic to work with for my son's rehearsal dinner. From their communications and planning to our visit for a tasting to the event was everything you'd want in a caterer. Delicious food with a superb event staff and coordination is first rate. Highly recommended!Under the Oak catering was fantastic to work with for my son's rehearsal dinner.

Delicious!
We decided to have Under the Oak as our caterer for our wedding and it was the best decision. The food was delicious! Everything was so flavorful! The mashed potatoes and beef were personally a favorite. Even the cocktail appetizers were amazing! They were very accommodating for the various food restrictions of some guests as well as for the kids!

Amazing food and catering team. Can’t speak highly enough!
Under the oak was an amazing addition to our special day. They were a preferred vendor from our venue and we could not have been more pleased. On top of the food being incredible, they were the talk of the party; everyone kept telling us how good the food was.
The tasting we completed prior to booking them made it such a tough choice because every item was so good. We chose to do buffet style and did their pan roasted chicken, BBQ pork, roasted fingerlings, green beans, and max and cheese. Their hors d'oeuvres were so tasty as well. My husband and I chose to have a few minutes alone right after the ceremony and their staff came in and gave us a plate so that we were sure to get a bite as well.
Lara and her team were amazing from start to finish and highly recommend them for your big day.Under the oak was an amazing addition to our special day.

Most amazing and easy experience! Guests raved about the food! Would 100% recommend.
One of the biggest priorities for our wedding was to have amazing and memorable food. Blake and his team exceeded expectations and had a huge variety of what we could choose from for our menu. We were very impressed with Blake's strong and unrelenting passion to keep his food restaurant quality to avoid the normal bland wedding food vibe and intense attention to detail. He did not disappoint.
He was very honest to tell us if certain food options were not ideal for our venue to ensure the quality of what he was delivering. He has a strong pride in what he does and it shows in the results.
Guests came up to us during the wedding to rave about how spectacular the food was.
He was extremely responsive and also happy to work through several versions of the menu so that he could take into consideration our budget.
He was extremely flexible and accommodating even during a last minute venue change. He always found a way to make what we wanted out of our wedding day work whether that be not having enough space as he would like or having to prepare our food in a venue that did not normally allow outside vendors. He never complained or made us feel less than extremely taken care of. He took all the worry away.
His staff even prepared us some of the cocktail hour apps to take after the event to ensure we could taste everything.
Coming out of the reception, we had several friends interested in hiring him for their wedding and other events coming up soon. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking to break out of the boring wedding food box and really enjoy a high quality meal that everyone will remember.One of the biggest priorities for our wedding was to have amazing and memorable food.

Wonderful team, wonderful food!
Blake and Megan did an amazing job catering our wedding! It was important to my husband and I to have a farm to table meal and they had just the right local farmers to help us create the perfect menu. We even got to tour the farms and meet the farmers who were growing/raising our food before the wedding. Everything was prepared just right and our guests were all talking about how good the food was. Megan even made our wedding cake and some bite size pies for dessert! So so good! We highly recommend them!Blake and Megan did an amazing job catering our wedding!

Local, sustainable, so delicious!
Blake and Megan put their very best into their work and it shows through Under the Oak. The charcuterie board and pickles in particular are AMAZING!! Their food is high class without being intimidating, always delicious, and you can feel good knowing you’re supporting local small farmers and sustainable practices. I’ve had the pleasure of having an Under the Oak experience in multiple settings (work events, date nights, catering) and you can tell that Blake takes the time to tailor his menu based on the event and the client’s wishes. You can’t go wrong with Under the Oak for your special day.Blake and Megan put their very best into their work and it shows through Under the Oak.
