Mouthwatering Caterers in Charlotte

The Q Shack

★★★★☆ 3.5 (142) • $$

"First time eating this bbq, I got the pulled chicken sandwich. It was really good. The staff was nice."

Gyro Twins

★★★★☆ 4.1 (19)

"My apartment complex invited these guys over for a resident appreciation day and we were too busy to cook so we figured we'd give it a shot. Were not disappointed!We didn't do much menu exploration and kept it simple with the classic/traditional Greek pita. They put in hecka good, deliciously seasoned lamb, top with onions and tomatoes, and drizzle in tatziki sauce. Seriously one of the best gyros I've ever had. Maybe second only to getting one at the Greek festival in Charlotte.Service was friendly. They take cash or cards which is great and always kinda an unknown with food trucks. Prices are a little high but when I consider the flavor of this I'm alright with that. Can't wait to find y'all again!"

Red Radish Catering

★★★★☆ 4.3 (8)

"Got this catered to my job and everything was amazing! We had the glazed bbq chicken. It was super tender and juicy. The sweet potato soufflé was creamy and paired well with the chicken. My favorite was the salad. It has mandarins, craisins, crispy fried onions, cucumbers, pepita and tomatoes. It seems like a weird combination of items but it all goes so well! Their zesty ranch is also amazing with the salad!For dessert, we had the magic bars and they were also amazing! They were very rich and sweet."

OooWee BBQ

★★★★☆ 4.2 (40) • $

Chef Kendra Alexander

★★★★★ 5 (8)

"I called Kendra on a Friday to cater a business luncheon for five on the following Monday. I gave her very little direction - that there were two vegetarians in the group, and that was it. She prepared a BEAUTIFUL meal of lemon pepper chicken (for the meat eaters) and veggie pasta salad for the vegetarians. The meal came in four courses: salad (she brought three dressings), entrée, dessert (cookies individually wrapped for each person), and fruit after our meal.She arrived 45 minutes before I did (I was flying in from Baltimore) to set up, and the table scape was beautiful. She brought her own linens, real ceramic dishes, glass glasses, etc. And on top of that, she served us throughout the meal. Basically, Kendra brought the four star dining experience of a restaurant to us (and on very short notice, I reiterate). She is capable of doing both small parties and larger functions such as weddings (up to 500 people). If you need catering in the Charlotte area, I highly highly highly recommend Kendra. You cannot go wrong."

Occasions Catering

★★★★☆ 3.9 (15)

"Marcus and his staff did a terrific job of doing our special "occasion" this past weekend, they were professional and the food was delicious. Certainly will be looking to book them for work events and such. Great experience and I highly recommend them!"

The Clebourne House

★★★★☆ 3.7 (7)

"This is a pretty place to get hitched... They've redone the courtyard with a really nice stone layout... There is a literally a gravel pit in the back of the area for your smokers and a couple of wrought iron benches... The food was okay... It wasn't the worst I've had at a wedding, but it also wasn't the best... The fruit was fresh, the roast beef was flavorful and whatever sauce they had on the meatballs was pretty good... No one knows what it was, though... lol The ceremony and reception were both outside and it was a beautiful day, so that was great... They needed a little time to flip the space, so I figured they would have us go inside for the cocktail hour, but they kind of let us meander around the property... There's a really nice wrap around porch and all, it wasn't bad, but I kind of felt like I was in the way a bit since they had to set up around us... There's a nice mini field of lush grass directly across the street where you can go for pictures and it looked like they got some great shots, so I'm sure the bride and groom will be excited about those... The meh parts? Well, here they go... A couple of the beers we ordered were old... I'm talking 2010 and 2011 old... No one got sick or anything and once they were aware of the issue, they offered replacements with no questions asked... I thought they handled it well, but they should definitely check their inventory a little more thoroughly... And look, I know where I am... This is the South... And I'm sure this house was a plantation quite some time ago... But I still have to say, the pictures in the men's room were a definite topic of conversation what with the slaves, confederate flag and all... The rest of the décor was nice and I understand it's their property, so they can put up whatever they like... That was kind of a sad distraction from the rest of the happy day, though... Overall, it was a decent place... I'm not sure how much it runs for, but they have nice hardwood floors, the staff was very accommodating and the courtyard was picturesque... Just watch out for the parking lot, ladies... It is ALL gravel, so either walk in pairs or bring some flats... (Especially if you're a smoker...) Stilettos might not end well... lol"

SMS Catering Services

★★★★☆ 3.7 (3)

"Wonderful space for the nonprofit event I attended! They had ample parking and party space! I would recommend this space for anyone looking to have a one venue wedding and reception! They have a covered outdoors space complete with fountains, string lighting, and seating!"

Big Butt BBQ

★★★★★ 5 (6)

"The Southern Philly Sandwich was so good that I had to come back to the truck and get the Porkasorus. This crew is producing a really great true smoke flavor in their food. Next event I need catered I'm going to call them."

McKoy's Smokehouse Catering

★★★★★ 4.7 (3)

"Traveled to Charlotte for the weekend and ate at this fine bbq spot! Great food and great service from Nani!! My son and I loved the food.."

Union Barbecue

"This spot is a food truck, the carnitas here are banging. I would recommend coming back here, the service is on point as well. The gentleman came and delivered my carnitas to me. Overall great experience, will come back here again."

The Rican Redneck

★★★★★ 5 (1)

"This food truck was at Pour 64 in Mint Hill on a Saturday night. I saw someone with the Jibarito sandwich and I decided to put in an order. It comes on two fried plantains and oh my goodness it was better than I could have imagined! The pork was amazing and it was a great combination of flavors. The staff was also very friendly. I'll definitely keep an eye out for where they go next!"

Hunter House and Gardens

★★★★☆ 4.3 (65)

"Bookmarked Hunter House a while back, so finally had an opportunity to go. It was a really good experience!Went during Restaurant Week, so opted for choices off that particular menu. The starter salad was good and the Andouille Sausage Meatloaf was really good and flavorful! Topped it off with the bread pudding, which was great as well!The staff was welcoming and seated us l immediately, with reservations. Inside, the ambiance reminded you of the Gatsby Era and was very well arranged and designed, inside of what seems to be a historic home. It's very quaint with low lights and a great date-night spot!Located right on Old Statesville Rd. in Huntersville, in the new street circle that was built. Parking is available next to the house, as well as behind the house off of Mt Holly-Huntersville Rd.Can't wait to go back and try some additional dishes and options! Give them a try if you're in the area or looking for a date-night option!"

Charcuterie Charlotte

★★★★★ 5 (1)

"Excellent service and food + fresh produce with spectacular presentation! This was my first time staying in SC and was really a pleasant surprise to have lunch and breakfast catered by them. Austin's work is outstanding!"

Curry Junction

★★★★★ 4.6 (55)

"Made a reservation for a Friday night at dinner. We were greeted promptly upon arrival by the kind hostess who seated us. The inside of the restaurant is simple but still very nice. Our server was quick to arrive at our table to check if wanted to place drink orders. They do not serve beer and wine, however, it is BYOB so we brought our own wine to enjoy with our meal. Our server then brought out wine glasses and bottled waters for us. The food was fabulous, fresh, and fast! We started with an order of the samosas which were nice and hot. Then for dinner we had the chicken korma with rice, garlic naan, roti, and a side of raita. All of which were delicious and so fresh. Overall, we had a great experience and will be coming back to dine here again very soon!"

Waiter's Choice Catering

★★★★★ 5 (15)

"I've used Waiter's Choice for dozens of catering jobs. Mostly corporate lunches at work for 10 to 120 people. I have used their white tablecloth formal setup as well as their express style service. Most recently they catered breakfast 2 days last week and lunch 3 days last week each for 20 people. each delivery was perfectly on time, and exactly what I ordered. They are always professional and the food is great. in the last week alone, I have eaten their fried chicken, beef brisket, pulled pork, sausage, egg and cheese croissant sandwiches, cookies, brownies and a variety of sides. Keep up the good work, we need more place like Waiter's Choice that understand how to manage good food and fantastic customer service at reasonable prices."

Durty Thumbs

★★★★★ 4.5 (28)

"Unassuming place right off the highway, but I've heard the food truck was good. Ended up having a great meal here, very tasty and unique for the area.I thought the meal had the perfect amount of spice, but YMMV. I got the cabbage which was great for throwing on top of the Rasta pasta, which seems to be a go to order here. Some people thought this place was slow, but food came out fast for us. The place doesn't have many tables and does run the A/C a little high, but that is not even 1% of the experience. Looking forward to going back"

Mrs Lacy's Magnolia House

★★★★☆ 4.2 (57)

"We heard this place is awesome and it is! My friend is visiting from out of town so we met for lunch. Everyone is very friendly. We each ordered a salad sampler. Mine had potato, macaroni, and chicken salads plus pimento cheese (which has an up charge). All of them were delicious! We also ordered apple crisp and cheesecake. I would prefer to have apple pie but it was good. The cheesecake was yummy.I would definitely go back! Just a warning: it gets very busy!"

Killer Q

★★★★☆ 3.7 (11) • $

"First time we ordered from this food truck.I had the brisket, side of coleslaw and green bean casserole.My dining mate had the chili.Meals came with cornbread.The brisket was excellent and tender. The coleslaw average and green bean casserole ok was informed made with canned mushroom soupThe chili was good and very spicey but my dining mate enjoyed it. Cornbread ? from a mix. Portions average, prices moderate. Variety of bbq sauces available for your meal.A nice menu, friendly owner.May try the ribs next time"

Ken Cooks Catering

★★★★☆ 3.9 (35)

"I finally got the chance to try Ken Cooks today. From the moment I walked in, until I left, I was shown nothing but kindness and hospitality. I ordered the fried chicken, macaroni, and broccoli casserole. Each entree comes with either rice or mashed potatoes; I chose mashed potatoes. After about 10 minutes, my food was done. Ms. Ken let me know that there was a mixup and I was given rice on my plate instead of mashed potatoes but she gave me container of potatoes with the meal. When I opened the plate... wow! It was a work of art and smelled just as good. After sampling everything, I knew why so many people recommended this place. I really hated I had to go back to work because a meal of that caliber deserves a nap. Ms. Ken seemed like a sweet and genuine person and I wish her the absolute best. I'll definitely be coming back!"

Eggroll Company

★★★★☆ 4.3 (10)

"Everything I have ever eaten from this truck has been delicious! From the seasonings, to the ingredients through the service provided and finally the costs of food... It is a good choice to eat here.It's five dollars for a sweet egg roll and six bucks for a savory flavor. I enjoy the Uptown Chicken and always go for that. It's grilled chicken, onions peppers, provolone and mozzarella cheeses in a crunchy egg roll. There is consistency here and I appreciate that. You will wait about 13 minutes for your order, but it'll be worth the wait. For good reasons this has become a new fan favorite at the Laurel Park Friday Food truck event. I wish them great luck and continued success."

Another Food Truck

★★★★☆ 4.4 (25)

"Another Food Truck is serving up the ultimate comfort food. Loaded mac & cheese bowls, burgers, fries, onion rings and ribs! The best way to experience AFT is grab four or five friends and order the whole menu. #squadgoals You can order the whole menu for $108! If you aren't going to order the whole menu, definitely order some onion rings, they are light and crispy and served piping hot. They were so good, I wanted to eat the whole tray of them. I think everyone can't get past the mac and cheese with all the goodness, but don't let the ribs or burger go unnoticed, see.... you just need to order everything. Do it and send me pictures. Look for their schedule on the Gram."

Mariah’s Taco Spot

★★★★☆ 4 (20)

"I've been hearing of chatter about Mariah's Taco Spot which is a food truck filled with taco goodness. Marriah's offers five varieties of tacos; chicken, beef, chipotle surf & turf, salmon and shrimp and for the chicken wing lover they offer chicken wings with your choice of two tacos and seasoned rice; be sure to get the baby oil to dip the wings in and to drizzle it on the tacos.Marriah's is not like your average food truck, if you miss her at her Freedom Drive stop you literally have to follow her on instagram to see where she'll be next. Besides having great fresh cookedfood Miles and the rest of the crew still take time with the customers, even with the lines wrapped around the corner you get service with a smile."

Sammy G's Tavern

★★★★☆ 4.1 (315) • $$

"I had a big party of people so I really got a good feel for how the meals looked and how the waitress responded to our requests; AMAZING!I had brunch in mind but others wanted the main menu. The brunch menu was very limited but I was feeling more like brunchy eggy stuff. Almost everyone else went w the main menu. I was a little disappointed in the limited brunch menu as I had specifically come in at brunch hour which goes on till 2:00pm. I ordered crab Benedict and fruit. When it came it looked lonely sitting on the plate w no garnishes and fruit was meh. That cost $18.99. The Benedict was good though. Most folks meals started w a salad and various main meals came out next. Made me wish I had ordered from the main menu.The waitress was very good with getting all the meals and drinks out in a timely fashion, no complaints from anyone. Just 1 server was able to handle our table of 14 people! Kudos to her!Sammy Gs is a great lunch or dinner restaurant with a full bar. I recommend checking it out! They have lotsa good food and friendly staff."

Babe & Butcher

★★★★★ 4.9 (56)

"Feed me Charcuterie .. Babe & Butcher opens their new location located in Camp North End Tomorrow . Yesterday I attended the preview event to sample a charcuterie board of my choice along with checking out what all they have to offer & the space . What a cool fun twist this is, if you love charcuterie boards like me then you'll love this concept where you can go in and build your own charcuterie boards available in individual boxes or boards in various sizes .For all my vegan lovers you'll be happy to know they even offer vegan charcuterie boards ."

Babe & Butcher

★★★★☆ 4.2 (5)

"Woooo!!!! Sooooo thrilled B&B finally opened up another place. Even more thriled that it's by me! This new location is in the park Road shopping center right next to Michael's and Bruegger's bagels. For those of you who don't know what Babe Butcher is, they are a build, your own charcuterie and cheese place. They offer a variety of things such as mini boxes all the way up into a large boards wish you can customize anyway you like it. My office has catered boards from them twice already for two of our events and they have came out perfectly.They have really unique cheeses and super fresh charcuterie so this is always a great place for me to go and grab a snack or to even grab a little gift on my way to a house party. The only minor complaint that I have is just the prices... A regular box is about 25 bucks plus tip and tax, It's a little over 30 bucks. But it's worth it to me for a nice splurge every once in a while... otherwise im better off building my own box if i'm trying to be cheap.When: Saturday 11:50am, no waitOverall: 4.8/5Food: 4.9/5 - I am in love with their goat cheeses... the blueberry goat cheese on the honey goat cheese are my favorites. I also love all the accompaniments and the huge selection that they have. So many options to choose from! They also have high-quality cheeses and high-quality charcuterie. There is an option for everyone here. They also offer vegan cheeses and also gluten-free crackers too. I got a Regular box with honey, goat cheese, cheddar, pimento, cheese, dried apricots, pepperoncini, peppers, Montego, dusted chips, Marcona, almonds, jam, prosciutto.. the boxes came with crackers too. My only suggestion is to offer more options to select a meet. Instead of doing three cheeses and one meat for a regular box, maybe just say you can do four options of meats and/or cheeses... I personally would have preferred two meats and two cheeses for my box.Service: 4.8/5 - the staff is very kind and attentive and we're pretty quick to help me build my box. Suggestions: offer your own personal suggestions to anyone that hasn't been there before or offer suggestions on what might pair well together. Also, for those who can't see small text from far away to clearly, I would add small laminated, printed out menus for customers to grab and look at while they order their boxes. Or maybe you already have these and I just did not see them because I can't see lol!!Vibes: 4.8/5 - the place is super cute on the inside and outside. It's very clean and they have a health score of 100. I would say it is an IG or the place good for photo ops and they have plenty of seating!Other: free large surface lot in the park rd shopping center. They have no large signage yet, but just know that they are next to Michael's and Bruegger's bagels."

Anderson Catering

★★★★☆ 4 (9)

"We ordered this place for lunch at my job. They were more than on time with the order, and everything was set up nicely and ready for us when it came time to eat. All of the food was served hot and fresh!They had fired chicken, broccoli casserole, mac & cheese, rolls and cookies. I sampled the chicken, but am not really a fan of chicken period, so I can't be the judge. The sides were delicious! The cookies tasted like they came right out of the oven! We had oatmeal raisin and chocolate chip. I was happy with the lunch!"

31 Flavors Soul Food Kitchen

★★★☆☆ 2.7 (3)

"Food is amazing! Best soul food spot in Charlotte and I've tried MANY!!! I wanted to try everything on the menu!"

Fresh Eats Catering

★★★★★ 5 (2)

"I am SOOO happy we booked Fresh Eats as our wedding caterer. Tyler and the entire staff were absolutely amazing and my favorite vendor. Everyone was obsessed with the food!!! Tyler went above and beyond to assist with every single question I had even if it was late at night (and the entire year we had them booked)! I highly recommending Fresh Eats!"

Mesha's Sweet Treats

★★★★★ 5 (2)

"My sisters and daughters met Mesha and her customer service was amazing! The ambiance felt welcoming! We participated in the Eat Black Charlotte event and I had no business going to the table (because it was sooo many sweets) but the table was set up to wear you couldn't say no. I took the red velvet chocolate brownies and peach cobbler in a cup and MY GOODNESS!!! It was amazing!!! Definitely recommend!"

Alternative Chef

★★★★★ 5 (6)

"We love Alternative Chef! The food is delicious and can be adapted to any dietary needs/restrictions. We've enjoyed Chef Hannah's catering and would definitely recommend her personal chef services and private cooking classes."

CHERcuterie Boards & Sweets

★★★★★ 5 (1)

"Cheryl did a fantastic job from start to finish. She was very forthcoming with communication from the time I asked the first question until the order was hand delivered, which is really hard to find these days . The board was beautiful and she even did it on short notice. All of the food was delicious and it was obvious she took great care in creating our gluten-free board. I can't thank you enough for taking care of us on the short time frame (which I apologize for sincerely). I absolutely recommend this five star business for any of your charcuterie needs."

Honey Butter Bakery

★★★★★ 4.7 (6)

"I am occasionally tasked with event planning for work, and I recently needed three cakes for different events with very different budgets. I also work for a state agency, so I needed a place willing to work with the company's tax exempt status. After contacting several other bakeries for quotes, I landed on Honey Butter Bakery and I am so glad that I did. There is not a physical location for Honey Butter Bakery, instead the owner and chef, Brandi, delivers to you! The cost of delivery is included. Brandi was incredibly responsive via email, very flexible with delivery dates and times, and game to try to make every elaborate creation that I ordered. The pricing is very competitive, if not cheaper, than brick-and-mortar bakeries in the area. She uses PayPal for payments. For those with food allergies, she does make gluten-free cakes, but notable that she does not guarantee for cross-contamination. Each cake that I have ordered had a combination of buttercream icing with some fondant decorative pieces. Her cakes are a work of art! The flavors of cake that I've tried include Italian Cream, German Chocolate, and Strawberries and Cream. All have been super delicious with the right density, degree of moistness, and icing-to-cake ratio. I am definitely partial to the Strawberries and Cream cake because of the fresh chopped strawberries in between the layers of the cake. She also brought a free small tray sampler of her cheesecake bites with the last cake that I ordered. The flavors included the Cookies and Cream, Carrot, and Pumpkin. Cheesecake can be a finicky dessert to make, but once again, Brandi knocked those out of the park. Very delicious and so, stinkin' cute. I can't wait to order again for my next office party!"
