Good Food Catering

, the staff led by Ms Olympia was prompt, knowledgeable of the details, friendly and helpful. And the food was fantastic!! Mini lobster rolls, bacon wrapped scallops, oysters and filet Mignon were the most notable dishes but all was amazing.

dinner. Everything tasted amazing! We got married during the COVID 19 pandemic and Good Food Catering was good about putting into place a sanitation plan for keeping things clean and following guidelines. We did have some trouble reaching them initially during the shut down, but once we got back into contact with them things went smoothly. Due to the pandemic, our guest count reduced significantly to just our wedding party and parents and they were flexible with allowing us to reduce our guest count given the circumstances.

nly offered me $1,243 out of the about $5k I paid them. They had minimal regard for the fact that the cancellation of my wedding was out of my hands and postponing was not in option in 2020 for me, given my schedule (which includes summers). I would never recommend this business, because when it comes down to it, they will do what gets them the maximum profit, with no regard for how it will impact their client. We are devastated that our wedding was cancelled only 2 weeks prior, and now we are left with no funds to even have a honeymoon or elopement. Very disappointed in Good Food catering.

count. The food for both the cocktail hour and reception were delicious, and we received compliments from all of our guests. For the cocktail hour, we chose pulled pork on a johnny cake, lobster rolls, goat cheese stuffed date wrapped with bacon, fried green tomatoes, and shrimp on a chip. For the reception, we chose pecan crusted chicken with succotash, shrimp and grits, and beef tenderloin with asparagus and potatoes. Everything was perfect. We highly recommend choosing Good Food Catering for your wedding!

r guests about how great the food was! They are extremely professional and affordable for the quality of catering. They also will change their menu to your preferences and will come up with new food options based on your vision and what you want! We can't say enough about how great Good Life is and we HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend them!!

ood food catering.

were all out of this world. They even brought the bridal party a platter prior to our entrance. We went with the low country buffet for dinner with some minor changes. They were very flexible when choosing our menu. They even sent us home with doggie bags which was perfect since my husband and I did not have much time to eat.

had mini chicken biscuits as a late night snack. All the food was amazing. The guests loved it. Presentation was beautiful & tasty!

r tasting which Eve handled. Food was amazing and she helped us pick out our menu, linens, rentals and rent. Passed appetizers, boiled peanuts, shrimp and grits, pulled pork, Mac n cheese, green bean casserole, blue cheese coleslaw and biscuits and an ice cream sandwich bar! She arranged a layout of our venue (down to every palm tree on the property) and made great suggestions based on her experience catering at our venue. Unfortunately our wedding was cancelled (4 days before it was planned for) due to Charleston having to evacuate for Hurricane Florence. It was devastating of course and I’m still dreaming of the day that Eve helped me plan that I know would have been perfection! With that being said I just returned home from my honeymoon to an email from Good Food Catering telling me that they were refunding me for our everything! It literally made me cry tears of joy! And was not something they had to do. Although I didn’t get to live out the day we had planned I would absolutely reccomend them. I could not have planned my wedding from California without Eve.

ented and tasted. We didn't want to ordinary wedding meal menu, and Good Food definitely delivered on that. Highly recommended.

g planning and Eve was patient, communicative, and accommodating throughout the process. It's a bit of an undersell to call Eve our "day-of coordinator" because she was active and helpful from the day we called about viewing the venue all the way to after the wedding. Her creativity, warmth, and solution-focused attitude helped us create the perfect wedding day and to feel supported throughout the process. This venue is beautiful and incredibly charming - you won't have to do much to it. And the food is to die for. We did buffet and had 100 guests...there was more than enough space for everyone to sit. We embraced the low country cuisine and our guests were in awe of how tasty it all was. All in all, our wedding was such a wonderful experience. Our guests raved about it from start to finish and we were able to enjoy it ourselves. Eve, the Rice Mill, and Good Food Catering made it easy to create a personalized wedding day that left everyone feeling that they had experienced something special. I can't stay enough about how highly we recommend them!

e a few months later to do our catering tasting and meet Eve, our day-of coordinator. Eve was amazing to work with - she was on top of every little detail and everything went off without a hitch! During our catering tasting she was accommodating, flexible, and provided great recommendations to help personalize our day. She was always quick to communicate about any and every question I had, and worked with my vendors one month out to create the perfect day-of timeline. I can't thank her enough for her assistance with our special day! I also can't write this review without mentioning the delicious food provided by Good Food Catering. You cannot go wrong with any of their delicious menus or food options. We did passed hors d'oeuvres during cocktail hour, and a surf and turf seated multi-course dinner. I had so many compliments on the food! Also worth mentioning is my maid of honor has a gluten allergy, and they were more than accommodating for her to ensure she had a dish she could enjoy as well. From the gorgeous view, to the exceptional service we received (from Eve's coordination down to the friendly wait staff), to the delicious food options, we cannot recommend the Historic Rice Mill enough!

a calm about her that made me feel confident. I am from Toronto so I relied on her for early deliveries, long distance coordination, and meetings. She understood our vision and helped execute it into reality. Good Food Catering was excellent, the only dish we didn't love was the fish. The appys, the filet, and the chicken were outstanding! The ambiance was complimented by the eclipse and we had transformed this quaint old historic building into a romantic paradise. The team was also very accommodating; when we moved up the guest arrival time and opened the bar, it was not a problem. When we extended the wedding an hour the night of, it was not a problem. I would highly recommend this venue and team to help make your wedding day one of your best ever memories. Thank you to Jenna and the team for all your help.

one we unfortunately did not care for at all) and did not put forks out with our cake. My mother in law had to find someone to scrape up some forks so our guests could enjoy our cake. If you're looking for great food, Good Food is the way to go! They just need to iron out those fine details.

for special orders. I also really enjoyed the mac and cheese and lobster. Also their caprese salad was so cute and served on mini forks.

ut the planning process. Eve made planning from out of town so easy. She also arranged all of our rentals, gave very straightforward and helpful advice, and even stayed super late after a wedding the night before mine to set everything up for our morning ceremony. Could not recommend Eve and the Rice MIll enough!!

to offer in terms of beauty and wow-factor than other venues in the same price range. Jenna and her team were fantastic to work with and all their help and guidance throughout the process was invaluable. The event itself went off without a hitch just a week after Hurricane Matthew. The Rice Mill Staff and Good Food Catering (their in house catering company) took such care to make it a beautiful event. Strongly recommended!

n with the on site coordinator could have been a little better but the venue printed me is for the guests and did come through in the end to make our night special. Thanks!

ement) until the day prior to the wedding, in which we were told certain items would not be placed. Her reply was something to the effect of "everyone knows caterers don't do that." I've never been married before and wasn't aware of typical expectations and relied on vendors for specific guidance. I was also confused because the contract stated they do all setup and because we had specific conversations about personal items that she said would be setup. We only had table runners, numbers and favors. I had to ask extended family to run over the morning of the wedding to take care of that. Then the caterers took our bakery items at the end of the reception and bottles of alcohol, which we purchased ourselves and provided. My mom had told Jenna she was going to grab bags to pack up the remainder of cookies (we had out as snacks), to find that they were gone 5 minutes later when she went back with the bags. Nobody claimed they knew where the cookies went. They also didn't serve both flavors of cake, or ensure that there was cake available at all times. We had many guests who didn't get a slice. They also threw out our favors that were on the tables while our guests were dancing. We personally bagged pralines with tags for our guests - not to have them thrown out! I realize not everything goes perfectly, and we expected a minor issue or two to pop up, most of which our guests I'm sure wouldn't realize, but what really stung was her attitude after we addressed our concerns. She disputed every detail and even went so far as to say the florist was talking poorly about me, which A) was completely unrelated and unnecessary and B) was completely surprising - we loved the florist and felt the whole process was easy with the florist! There were no apologies, just disputes and attitudes. With that said, the food was great - compliments to the chef! I recommended if you go with them to ask for someone other than Jenna as a coordinator.

best food I've had a wedding. They have a full kitchen onsite so everything was hot and delicious. We had passed apps during cocktail hour of lobster mac & cheese, baby lamp chops & bacon wrapped shrimp and scallops. We then had two stations, one a full Italian station with chicken, shrimp, and 3 sauces and the second was a pork tenderloin with mashed potatoes and asparagus. YUM! It was soooo good and Eve at the Historic Rice Mill is so easy to work with. Highly recommend this company for one of your biggest wedding expenses.

provide the alcohol while they provide the mixers and the bartenders. We were able to save tons of money this way - just be prepared to get the alcohol to and from the venue (if there is any left over).

one of the places blocked from access. I don't know what they had to do to get to their kitchen, but they braved the flooded streets to be able to provide the food and beverages at our wedding. This really meant a lot to us and not only that but the services and friendliness of the staff was excellent. On top of that the food was to die for. GFC worked with us up until the last few days of our wedding to make sure the menu was perfect. We appreciate everything they did for us and I will always recommend them to anyone that needs catering in that area. Sincerely Drew and Ally
