We used City Barbecue for our son’s rehearsal dinner, and it was a hit! Everyone was so impressed with the flavor and quality of the food. There was more than enough for everyone, and everything that was supposed to be hot arrived perfectly hot. The service was seamless, and the meal truly elevated our celebration. Highly recommend!
Our City BBQ staff were amazing! We had a couple mother nature issues with the rain that the staff quickly and seemlessly worked through ensuring our cocktail hour food was set up ...
in a safe and dry area. Everything looked so professional and clean and of course the food was delicious! We made sure to have plenty of options for our guests and we had many compliments about the taste and presentation. We were also very happy with how they handled our "cake" too. We had a cheese wheel cake. It was definitely not a traditional cake so they weren't sure at first how was best to cut it, but they did it exactly how we wanted and folks seemed to really enjoy it. They made sure all the plates and silverware were scraped clean and ready for return to the rental place. Overall, the prices were affordable and we went into this knowing that City BBQ makes high quality food and that they certainly didn't disappoint! Thank you so much!!
Dani was a great help with our catering. The food was brought and set up by staff during our ceremony (it was so fast I didnt even know they were there!) And of course the food its...
elf was warm and delicious!
Had our wedding September 6, 2025. We went with the brisket and pulled pork as our two meats and did macaroni and cheese, green beans, and smashed potatoes for our sides. The food ...
was absolutely delicious and the service was phenomenal. At the end of the night, all of our leftovers were bagged up and organized in a strong, sturdy bag, with everything labeled. They even made a little baggy with small containers of food to eat when we got home later that night (which was great after dancing and drinking all night).
Abbey Mohr at City BBQ was amazing to work with for our wedding! She made the whole process so easy and was always quick to respond whenever we had a question. On the wedding day, ...

with while we made lots of little changes and adjustments. On the wedding day, Rose and Megan were fast and professional. You could tell they knew what they were doing! They were fast at refilling and taking trash. Food itself was delicious and all my guests were very happy with the temperature and the quality of everything!
The food, professionalism, and timeliness was on par! Would HIGHLY recommend!
Marvin was absolutely incredible! We didn’t have to think about a thing and were able to focus on our day and our guests. He even made a “to-go” bag for us since we clearly didn’t ...
have time to eat before the food was gone! We had the opportunity to give leftovers to our local FD (very cool option) and we barely had anything to give!! Perfect coordination by Kim and stellar execution by Marvin. Thank you City BBQ!!
The process from beginning to end was so easy. The tasting really sold us on how detail oriented and friendly the catering team was. Teressa was great the whole time, even when we ...
had to make some changes to our order. The day of went so smoothly, and the staff was so nice! They even included a small portion of my favorite side dish, for free. Our guests were super happy!

ommodating to guests with special needs. At the end of the service, they packed up the leftovers and delivered them to our local police department (at our request), in warm containers. And, totally unexpectedly, we received a "midnight snack" at our home after the night wrapped up - a little delivery for the 2 of us of a sampling of everything from our order, enough for the 2 of us to snack on from the day, including a piece of our cake! This was a totally unexpected and welcome touch!
I cannot recommend them more! Their team is amazing and made our day so simple and easy! With full service, our large wedding was fed amazing hot food FAST and they even packaged u...
p our leftovers for us! From our initial tasting to the end of the night on our big day, we were comfortable that we were in good hands. They are so responsive when you have questions and they worked together with the rest of our vendors to ensure our night went smoothly. They well surpassed our expectations and I would recommend to any other couple that is looking for GREAT food and SUPERIOR service! You will not be disappointed.
We worked with Teressa Quarles from the beginning and she was amazing!! From helping us pick out our menu, to being so patient as we had such a change in the amount of servings we ...
would need. We never had to reach out more than once to get ahold of her! The food was SO good and the staff working for City Barbeque made sure that everyone was well fed and food was put out fast! We are so so happy with how everything turned out, and will be using them for other catering we might need in the future as well!
Teressa Quarles, the catering manager, was so helpful from day one when planning the menu for our daughter’s wedding reception! She also responded quickly to questions and was ther...

interruptions. I was so happy with how it all turned out. We had plenty of food and went home with a lot of left overs. They give large servings.
We went into City Bbq (no appointment needed) to ask a few questions and order our food. The staff was incredibly helpful! The manager advised us on the most popular items to choos...
e and gave us great tips for how to best store the food before the reception and set the food up to be served (we decided to set our food up buffet style rather than plated service). The food was outstanding! We sampled various caterers and City BBQ far exceeded their quality and flavor. Also, the price was amazing! We fed the group for about $6.50 per head. For those of you in military, they do discounts as well!
City Barbeque’s food is mouth watering. Teressa was very experienced and professional. She was great to work with and reasonable when creating the menu for our day. The delivery cr...

o nice to taste all of the food before selecting it for our big day! We had pulled pork, chicken breasts, green beans, potato salad, and a macaroni and cheese bar (which was a HUGE hit). City Barbecue also provides iced tea and lemonade for the cocktail hour. Their food and set up went perfectly with our rustic, outdoor venue. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for delicious barbecue and wonderful service.
Two members of the team showed up, set up, and took over all food and drink services. They went above and beyond what was asked of them. Reasonably priced and delicious as always.
City Barbeque worked to make sure I had exactly what I wanted for my wedding. Chris (the man in charge) was very nice and professional. They were there on time and everything was r...
eady for the reception. We chose the full service option, so it was a buffet line with an employee there to change out the dishes and make sure it never was empty. We has sooooo much food left over, and we took it home and froze it. haha
