Exceeded expectations

We were so pleased with the entire experience at Southern Palate. Several people mentioned how great the food was, and they go the extra mile to make sure the bride and groom have more than enough food to enjoy! We were blessed to find them and would recommend them to anyone.

Incredible Food and People - A Catering Experience to Remember!

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing the catering services of Southern Palate Catering at an event I attended at Platform @ Greer. And let me tell you, they absolutely blew me away!

From the moment I took my first bite, I knew I was in for something special. The food was not only delicious beyond words, but it was also surprisingly healthy. They achieved the perfect balance of rich flavors and nutritious ingredients. It's rare to find catering that satisfies both those needs so well.

While I didn't have the opportunity to work with them directly for the event planning, I made a point to introduce myself to the owners, James and Denise, afterwards. And I'm so glad I did! They are an absolutely wonderful couple - extremely personable, professional and clearly passionate about what they do.

Even though I was just an attendee, their food and hospitality left such an impression that I felt compelled to share my rave review. The whole experience with Southern Palate Catering's cuisine and the people behind it was top-notch.

If you're looking for catering that delivers mouthwateringly delicious and healthy food, with outstanding service from amazing people, then look no further. Southern Palate Catering has my highest recommendation! They turned me into a raving fan after just one event.
