We used City of Oaks to cater a breakfast for our medical office staff in May of 2025. It went great. The food was wonderful, they were super responsive even with planning it only a couple of weeks in advance. Would definitely recommend!

Went for a neutral but tie breaking opinion with the bride and groom for their wedding tasting and WOW!!! The food and the owners were both 5 star. The menu wasn’t able to be cut down at all because everything was SOO GOOD. Really respected their honesty about the food and how it travels and their confidence in giving a different option that would be the best for the guests. 10/10 would recommend and hoping to start a quarterly supper club catered by these men.

We had the absolute pleasure of working with City of Oaks Catering for our wedding, and we cannot recommend them highly enough. From start to finish, everything about our experience with them was top notch. Chefs Troy and Ike are incredibly talented—every single dish they prepared was packed with flavor, perfectly seasoned, and beautifully presented. Our guests are still talking about the food, and honestly, so are we. It was that good. Our wedding menu included: - Smoked pork tenderloin with BBQ sauce - Garlic and herb boneless chicken thighs - Mac and cheese - Sautéed green beans - Chicken and waffles with syrup and powdered sugar - Crab cake with remoulade - Charcuterie shooter - Plated salad (I’m not even a salad person, and I would eat this one every day) Every item was delicious, from the first bite to the last. Beyond the food itself, their entire team was a joy to work with—professional, friendly, and incredibly personable. They made sure everything ran smoothly on the day of, and their presence only added to the warm and welcoming atmosphere we wanted for our guests. We also had two tastings with them before the big day, and both were fantastic. They were accommodating with our schedules and flexible throughout the entire process. If you're looking for catering that will wow your guests and give you confidence from the first tasting to the final plate served, look no further than City of Oaks Catering. They helped make our day unforgettable, and we’re so grateful we chose them.

City of Oaks Catering did an absolutely amazing job catering my son's high school graduation dinner on June 15th! Unfortunately, I forgot to take photos of the food before it was devoured by my guests. Everyone loved the food and kept talking about how delicious it was! We ordered roasted chicken, mac-n-cheese, green beans, and baked ziti. We worked with Ike, who was very professional from the very first communication, all the way up to the day of the event. He arrived early and brought extra food, extra plates, and extra utensils! He also set up everything on chafing dishes with burners to keep it warm. I will definitely use this caterer again and would highly recommend their services!

I had the pleasure of having City of Oaks Catering for my wedding, and they were absolutely exquisite! From the beginning, they were patient with me and helped craft the perfect menu for my Summertime in Paris-themed event. Their staff was friendly, professional, and attentive throughout the day. The food was phenomenal—we had salmon, chicken, delicious potatoes, green beans, and carrots, all cooked to perfection. They also created the perfect vegan and vegetarian options that fit seamlessly with the theme. I wish I could give them 10 stars! Thank you, City of Oaks, for making my special day unforgettable. I'll definitely be using them again!
