Best Impressions Catering Review

We used Best Impressions for our wedding at Foundation For The Carolinas and they did a phenomenal job. They provided hors d oeuvres and a charcuterie display for our cocktail hour and then a pre-set salad and buffet dinner for our reception. I can honestly say that I m frequently let down by food at weddings, but Best Impressions did a wonderful job and our guests have not stopped talking about it (particularly our seasonal salad with apple chips and the chicken cordon bleu!). The service was also top-notch from the planning process with Adam and Laura to the servers and bartenders the night of the wedding. We also had Best Impressions source our linens and a few specialty tables for us, which came together flawlessly. I also felt that, considering the quality of the food and the service, that the cost was completely reasonable. I would highly recommend them for any catering needs.

My daughter has worked for them and she was treated so well as an employee, we were all disappointed we had to move away from their serving area. This is a company I would definitely recommend.

They did my wedding in August and the food was great, they're timely and professional. Highly recommend!

The folks at Best Impressions are total pros and their food is FANTASTIC! Great service and great food every single time. We use them for our employee luncheons every single month and we've always had a great experience!

We really enjoyed working with Best Impressions Catering. They came to us highly recommended and after working with them, it's easy to see why. For starters, the food is delicious. You can't go wrong with any meal selection you choose. But beyond the food, more importantly, is their team. Their team is awesome. Because of them, our day ran so smoothly. They are professional, work well with others, and know exactly what they are doing. They are hospitable, welcoming, and made our guests feel at home. They have the best service. I had no worries with Best Impressions, and I'd trust them with any event, any day. They were highly organized, efficient, and responsive. We worked closely together as we navigated postponing and then re-planning a wedding. They handled all new changes with ease, creating a seamless transition between wedding dates. They were a pleasure to work with and I am so grateful to have had them on our team.

We have worked with Best Impressions Caterers several times, and every time has been a fantastic experience. They are professional, the food is amazing, and they continue to provide great customer service. We look forward to working with them more!

We could not be more grateful that we booked Best Impressions for our wedding cocktail hour and reception. Literally every bite was DELICIOUS and beautifully styled to boot! The staff was uber professional while also still having a good time - shout out to Stephanie, our Event Manager, who was the single best individual we worked with! She took such detailed care of the bridal party and family, on top of running a super smooth event with multiple bars, stations, and circling staff. We could not be more pleased with their service! They even worked with our venue to source several products, which really meant a lot. It shows that they care and are invested in the quality of their product matching your event - no cookie-cutter here! Shrimp and grits, crab cakes, pulled pork, slab bacon pimento cheese bites, the unctuous salad station were all highlights!!

Best Impressions catered and provided bar services, chairs, tables and linens for my wedding at Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden, and they did an amazing job. My husband and I knew we were in good hands throughout the process, which put our minds at ease (and is priceless - essential to have during wedding planning). The food was fantastic and the setup was beautiful.

Best Impressions certainly lives up to their name! Not only were they great communicators with quick response times but they made sure every detail was exactly what we wanted and then executed those details flawlessly. They have some of the best food options and flavors that I ve ever tasted. I m so blessed to have had them cater my parents surprise 60th birthday party. They truly made the event better than I could have expected!

We used Best Impressions Caterers for our wedding on March 30th. The food was amazing, the staff was attentive and the flow of the entire food and bar service was quick! Our guests all commented on how delicious the food was! We were very pleased with how everything turned out!

If you are looking for great catering these guys are awesome, every item they made was delish, I don t think I can pick a favorite item because they were all phenomenal!!!

The food and service was how a wedding catering should be! Your staff is stellar!

Would absolutely use Best Impressions Catering again! Shout out to Susan Grotts for her leadership at our event. Thank you!

Local Photographer here (Elizabeth A Images)! Best Impressions participated in my recent Sweet Peach styled shoot; they provided pretty drinks and the most beautiful charcuterie boards! Absolutely awesome to work with -punctual, easy to communicate with. 10/10

Best Impressions Caterers provided food and rentals for our spring wedding, and everything was fantastic. My guests are still talking about the meal three months later! Thank you!!

Best Impressions was extremely professional, easy to work with, and organized throughout the entire planning process and event. We were fortunate to work with Donald Shives during the process. Donald was very pleasant and created a great family atmosphere. The food and service were absolutely perfect. Several guests talked about how great Donald was with accommodating their food allergies. My husband and I were so comforted to know that Best Impressions would be taking care of our guests. They gave us the best gift we could ask for--- we were able to relax and enjoy our reception knowing that each of our family and friends were taken care of by the "best" Best Impressions team! Thanks Donald and the team!

We loved Best Impressions and I can't think of a single negative. Everyone raved about our BBQ and our cocktail hour food. I worked with Adam and he was super responsive and professional. Jamie was our day of coordinator and he was great as well. Bartenders and servers were also friendly. Would definitely recommend!

Great company to work with! They did a wonderful job for a recent bride of mine.

Wow! What an experience! Everyone at our wedding really and truly had the Best Impression of us, due to our amazing food. Very professional. Excellent quality. Very accommodating to our requests. Definitely will recommend to all of our friends and family.

We wanted to do a station style wedding. Everything was well timed and executed to perfection.

All the dishes were fantastic. The salmon (served cold) and the spinach and walnut ravioli were the highlight!

We recently used Best Impressions for our daughter's wedding. From the first meeting to the last and through the reception they were nothing but total professionals. We set up a taste testing at their facility 6 months prior to wedding. When we arrived, we were greeted by the owner, taken on a tour of their facilty(kitchen VERY clean and organized), then were sat down in a lovely room and served all the items we had picked. Everything was delicious. On the day of wedding I was concerned about how the food would taste after being prepared at their facility and then transported to venue. I was thrilled that everything arrived perfectly delicious and at the correct temperatures. Even all the guests commented on how delicious everything was and how the set up and caterers were first class all the way. I would TOTALLY recommended Best Impressions without hesitation. If I had an occasion to use them again I most definitely would. Thanks Best Impressions for your part in making our daughter's dream wedding come true. Btw, Danielle is the BOMB!! She was always available to answer any questions that arose. Don't waste time calling anyone else. Do yourself a favor and let Best Impressions handle your catering needs ;)

My wife and I hired Best Impressions Catering to cater our wedding at Brown Mountain Beach Resort in Lenoir, N.C. and Best Impressions lived up to its namesake in every way.

The staff showed up on time and fully prepared, were well dressed and had smiles on their faces the entire time. Best Impressions worked in tandem with our venue to make sure our reception s dinner was flawlessly executed, allowing our guests and ourselves to enjoy a most special meal in celebration of our new life together, all without us worrying about the logistics or feeling it necessary to follow up on the details covered ahead of time.

After our ceremony, our guests enjoyed delicious appetizers, which were brought down and served on the beach! What a beautiful touch to kick off our celebration; our guests and ourselves were blown away by the attention to detail and level of service which Best Impressions provided, talk about getting off on the right foot. It is amazing how something so simple goes such a long way.

The reception meal was prepared to absolute perfection! The tenderloin received raved reviews from our guests, as did the chicken Florentine, as both were knocked out of the park; tender, moist and memorably exquisite. The Baby arugula salad was fantastic, the fried goat cheese topping it offered a palatable decadence yet maintained approach-ability for guests less accustomed to haute cuisine. Our sides of mashed baby red potatoes and seasonal autumn roasted vegetables were also beautifully prepared; the vegetables maintaining their delightfully toothsome texture, which only further complemented the potatoes.

Additionally, the gourmet coffee bar was set up and available immediately following our dinner, seamlessly appearing and ready for our guests to enjoy the fantastic array of sweet treats featured in Best Impression s dessert bar, which our guests fawned over throughout the evening. Lastly, the late-night snacks were out of control delicious, and nothing pairs well with some raucous late-night drinking like a chicken biscuit or slider! The chicken biscuits flat out shamed any others I have ever had, seriously, I waited for those chicken biscuits for a year and they did not disappoint!

The resounding perfection of our meal and accouterments aside, Best Impression s service was bar none, professional and attentive without ever being overbearing, each individual went the extra mile to make sure our special day was just that. I could not imagine our wedding going as well as it did without the spectacular food and service which Best Impressions provided.

There is no other way to put it. Best Impressions indeed made their best impression on my wife and I, as well as our family, in addition to receiving compliments from our other vendors. Best Impressions is a business operating with pride and respect for themselves and their clients. We cannot offer accolades high enough to accurately express just how perfect Best Impressions food, staff, and service indeed were.

Well done, and a massive thanks to everyone at Best Impressions!

Don't even think twice; Best Impressions is THE caterer to choose in N.C.

As their name states, Best Impressions did just that! They were wonderful to work with from the start. The varied menu options were hard to choose from (all looked great!), and what we chose was all delicious. The servers at our daughter's wedding were very attentive, both in keeping the hors d'oeuvres circulating and keeping things fresh. During the reception they were constantly moving through tables and cleaning up. The presentation of the 4 food stations was attractive.

Customer service is obviously not a priority. It took a week before I got a response for a catering inquiry and didn't even get an apology for the delay. Since they didn't seem very interested in having my business I went to another company.

Best Impressions was amazing to work with and the food and service was great. We had 1 month to plan a wedding due to COVID and Adam and team helped us make it happened. I couldn t have asked for anything more. It was fantastic! Thank you again!
