The menu consisted of some passed hors d'oeuvres and food stations on the kitchen island. Chef Alex and Meg were a great team. They arrived at the house and got to work. The food was delicious, and the presentation was lovely. Meg buzzed around the house and backyard, offering food and clearing plates. Hosting a party has never been that easy. My house was in tip-top shape at the end of the evening. If you want a lovely, reasonably priced, and carefree party at your home, I highly recommend you hire Iron Clay Catering.

My venue did not recieve that information until almost September. My venue called me in November stating they were unable to get in touch with Southern Bear Catering. So i tried to reach out myself, but did not get an answer. I emailed, called and messaged them on Facebook. I eventually found one of the works on Facebook and sent a private message. They said they no longer worked there. So I reached out to trish the owner. I told her I had been trying to get intouch with someone and that I wanted my contract. I never did sign a contract with her as I was never given one. I asked for the contract in December 2025. She emailed me a contract in January 2026. It was only signed by her. I told her I wanted a refund as there is absolutely no communication! I never received the refund so I had to take her to small claims court. SHOCKER..she never showed. I had to drive 4hrs to go to court..I won the case.. but please save your time and money and DO NOT HIRE SBC!! Such a headache!

After speaking to a few different caterers on the phone, Salthouse was the obvious choice because we felt like they were really invested from the beginning, we weren't just another number to them. They asked personal, in-depth questions that made us feel confident that they were the people for the job. We wanted the food at our wedding to reflect Charleston's cuisine since we had a lot of out of town guests, and several guests said it was the best fried chicken and shrimp and grits they ever had. For cocktail hour, we had a beautiful Southern antipasto spread with biscuits, pimento cheese, and all the fixings. We were blown away during the tasting and they made everything so easy. They even coordinated the rentals for our linens through Snyder, which was a huge help. They were super professional and we had a perfect wedding day thanks to them. Highly recommend them for any event!

I utilized this charcuterie business for a recent baby shower that my wife hosted at our home on…read moreHalloween. Ordering was quick and easy for me via email with the business owner. Pickup was scheduled for a location just off of Magnolia in West Ashley at a designated time, and away we went. The board received many great compliments throughout our event, and the food displayed tasted just as good as it looked. I would definitely order from them again, and not just for a baby shower, but for any event, including a movie night if we chose to get crazy with sweets for the kids (and adults). If you're looking for a fancy, professionally made charcuterie board, this is the way to go without question.

We placed a large corporate order. They arrived punctually, set everything up which included all of the serving pieces. After the party, they picked everything up promptly. The food was delicious, flavorful and plentiful! We ordered chicken with mushrooms, vegetarian lasagne and the pork. All three were a hit with the guests. The order with a side, salad and drinks. I received compliments all evening from the guests. I would highly recommend Dish & Design and will be ordering from them going forward including for my personal parties.

Dish & Design catered the food for us during our Family Reunion in Charleston. My husband had been…read morespeaking with Sarah, who was new to the company, since the beginning of January 2024. Sarah was extremely helpful in promptly providing the meal options and quotes for the weekend. The prices seemed reasonable and the menu options appealed to us. He took the information provided to him back to our family reunion committee, so we could vote on whether or not to proceed. The committee voted and it was decided to proceed with Dish & Design. We decided on the menus for both nights and signed the contracts. We thought everything was finalized after signing the contracts until we were notified that the menu prices had increased for 2024. Unfortunately, we were not initially provided this information at the time we received the quotes, menu options, and contracts. We reached out to Sarah, who needed to speak with her boss, Ana, about this issue. Ana spoke with my husband and stated we would need to sign new contracts due to the menu prices increasing. He provided this information to the chairperson of our committee and she reached out to Ana directly about this issue. Ana was extremely unprofessional and unwilling to honor the initial signed contracts. She really left us uneasy about this issue and extremely unsatisfied. She even went as far as to say, Sarah was new and inexperienced and that was the reason for the mistake. As the manager, she never took ownership nor accountability for the mistake and just played the blame game. After many discussions and much reluctance from Ana, she finally agreed to honor the Sunday meal contract; however, she did not honor the contract for Saturday's meal and stated we would have to sign a new contract and pay the increased prices for that particular meal. With limited time and resources, since we are not residents of Charleston, we opted to stick with Dish & Design. While, some of the guests thought the food was decent and the service during the event was great (special thanks to Christina), it still left a less than desirable interest to ever hire them again nor recommend them for catering services. Although, everything wasn't bad, Ana's attitude and lack of professionalism is the main reason I cannot recommend Dish & Design for catering services in the Charleston area and can only rate them with 3-stars.

We all had a great time participating in the meal preparation during the cooking lesson she gave us at our home. All of us agree that the quality and taste of the food she had us prepare was on a par with the best restaurant meals we have experienced. While the paella tasted excellent, I personally thought the marinated grilled lamb "lollipops" appetizer we prepared was an amazing taste experience. The dessert of chocolate lava cakes with raspberry ice cream put us all over the top at the completion of the meal. Chef Emily somehow managed to get us a first class meal while giving each of us personal attention, including our 10 year old granddaughter, as we learned to execute her recipes and cooking techniques. She even did all the shopping before and cleanup after too. My expectations were exceeded and I am glad I chose her when I went searching for a chef to give us a high level cooking lesson in our home as a birthday gift for my wife. In addition to all that culinary talent, she is an amazing personality too and fit right in the entire time she was with us.
