Guests loved, we loved, fanstastic!

From our initial tasting to the end of the wedding everything was fantastic. We did a two meat buffet with sides. Many guests said it was the best food they'd ever had at a wedding.

They answered all of our questions and went out of the way to help like sourcing a second high chair because our venue only had one available. The crew on the day was so polite and organized, communicating with us at appropriate times and offering to help with stuff like cutting the cake and bringing napkins, plates, and forks even though it was from another vendor.

Worth every penny, no regrets!

SO GOOD, there was no room for dessert!

The food was amazing! So good, in fact, that barely any of our guests touched the dessert because they were so full! And that's saying something, because we had amazing pies for dessert.
Their website leaves something to be desired in terms of pricing clarity and your ability to go back and view contract agreements. However, Libby (Bensons Catering) more than made up for it with her patience with all of our questions and helpfulness in making adjustments to the plan, even when that meant having to advocate for some price changes.

Great food & staff!

Smoke Shack catered a wedding I recently coordinated and everyone LOVED the food! It was delicious, hot and ready to be served when the guests were ready. Their staff was easy to work with as well! I highly recommend Smoke Shack for your special event!
