Poppa Naps BBQ - At our wedding thank you again!! - Caterers Near Me

You won't regret booking Poppa Nap! With my husband being from Texas and my entire family also being from Texas, we knew we had to have BBQ at our wedding and had some high standards. We tried about a dozen bbq places and Poppa Naps blew the competition out of the water. Hands down great BBQ and even better people. Poppa Nap is a great guy, wasn't pushy like other vendors we tried, and went above and beyond to make sure our menu was exactly what we wanted. Our only "critique" is we wish he had a food truck/location so we could have it all the time. ;) read more

Poppa Naps BBQ - Caterers Near Me

I hired Mr. Nap and his lovely wife for my sons graduation dinner. Despite a few obstacles, we were able to pull it off. The food was top notch!! We had three meats, mac and cheese, salad, and baked beans. Mr. Nap couldn't be more professional, and he is so nice!! We got a nice gift from them for my son and also he brought one for me. I will keep him in mind anytime I have an event. Highly recommended!! read more

I ordered the "TOTALLY CARNIVOROUS, SON" 4 MEAT, 2 SIDES + ROLL for 15 ppl on Saturday. Poppa Naps delivered all the food to me. It was more than enough for everyone. Everything was great. I would recommend and will be using Poppa Naps again. read more

I had Poppa Nap cater my dad's 50th b-day it was the best thing I ever did! First my family is black and 40% are from Texas, so I was a bit nervous having a BBQ cater the event due to critical people- Oah let me not forget the crowd was (putting this as best I can "hood"). Which wad yet another reason I was apprehensive on having the event catered. But then Poppa Nap came and mad some amazing BBQ that left the party speechless! Napoleon adapted to the party so well, he didn't judge anyone and had a great time with us. He served great smoked food right on time and constantly refilled empty trays (food was kept warm in the smoker)! He even threw some hot dogs on the grill for me for the kids! I wish I had pics of the food, but everyone devoured it even packed plates before the party was over! He provided everything! His own table, napkins forks, Bbq sauce- if you look into other places they charge for those things and other places even charge to bring the smoker out- NOT Poppa Nap the quality of food and price CAN'T be beat! Ribs- were cooked perfect the ratio of meat and fat was great with seasoning that was out of this world- making no need for BBQ sauce (although I heard the the sauce was great too) Brisket- is a must! That was a big hit. It was so juicy and flavorful! Definitely recommend Poppa Nap you will love him- he is so personable, hard working, and beyond nice. Yes, his food speaks for itself! Thank you Napoleon! read more

Our company has locations in several states. Every year, we provide an appreciation Holiday lunch at each location. Due to COVID, we originally planned on canceling the lunch at our Vegas location but changed out minds at the last minute. "The last minute" is an understatement. PappaNaps only had 1 day to prepare, but was able to get it done! He even came in at 1:00 am to provide lunch for our second shift. The food was fantastic and prices were very reasonable. We WILL be using PappaNaps every year from here on. Thanks Napoleon! read more

I had Poppa Naps cater my 30th birthday in Vegas and it was as seamless of an experience as I could have hoped for. Napoleon and his team are the best. Napoleon himself is so easy to work with and he really makes you feel comfortable with how everything will go on the day of the event. He dropped by my hotel on the morning of just to check in and see how everything would work with the valet to ensure there would be no delays. As for the food itself, I'm a big BBQ fan and I must say that Napoleon makes some really great stuff. The pulled pork was particularly tender and the sides that came along with the meal were also very tasty. They provided a full setup that included plates, napkins, utensils, and serving stands. I would highly recommend Poppa Naps for anyone looking for a well catered meal! read more

Best burgers!!! Pops is very professional, friendly, and such a pleasure to work with. I will always use him when doing an event and will definitely refer him read more

Great food, great service, couldn't ask for more. Thank you, Napoleon for going above and beyond!

Poppa Naps catered a friend's birthday party, the food and service were amazing!! Everything was delicious but my favorites were the Santa Maria beans and the tri-tip with the homemade salsa. Delicious all around - and thank you Nap for taking our group picture!! read more

Had Poppa Naps BBQ cater a wedding rehearsal dinner for my Brother and his now Wife back on Labor Day weekend. Napoleon made the trek out to Zion National Park, UT from Las Vegas, NV. Not only did he and Katie go above and beyond with their service, the food was delicious!! We ordered chicken, brisket, pulled pork and tri-tip with mac n cheese, potato salad, mixed veggies, green salad and beans for sides. The pulled pork was my favorite as it was so flavorful and smoky, however the resounding favorite of all the guests was the brisket! I'm from Texas where brisket is the star, and can say Poppa Naps' brisket is on par!! I think the price point for the food and the service is worth it and would recommend Poppa Naps BBQ to cater your next event!!! read more

Poppa Naps catered our engagement and surprise Elvis wedding party. The food was AMAZING. My guests loved it. The service was great, we never wanted for anything. We had the chicken and pulled pork, mac n cheese, and potato wedges. I highly highly recommend!!! My mom said "Momma T loves the pulled pork!" Lol read more

We recently had our wedding catered by Napoleon and everything was perfect. He offered extra tables, vegetarian options, and more. His food isn't that expensive so it was exactly what we were looking for. We requested he cook the food before and bring it in because our venue didn't really have room for a smoker and he provided. He was a little late but it didn't ruin anything and it wasn't that big of a deal. Him and his crew set up pretty fast and served everyone by the time we were ready to eat. Everything was delicious and exactly what the groom and I wanted. I'm a vegetarian but chose to eat meat for my wedding and it was definitely worth it! Thanks again Napoleon. read more

Best choice we made all weekend. Napoleon and his crew were great and the food cannot be beat! If you're looking for someone who is reliable, not going to rip you off, and serves up some mean BBQ Poppa Naps is the best choice. I wish I could get his food delivered to me here in NYC! read more

Poppa Nap!!! you are awesome. I'm so glad I found you on Yelp for our company function. I wished you could deliver food to my place of employment! My other colleagues were jealous that I took a pic with you and got a T-shirt (which I STILL HAVE!!!) Salamat po!!!! read more

What a find! If you are ever thinking of ordering catered barbecue in Las Vegas, Napoleon is your guy. With only a couple days notice, Napoleon stepped up to the plate and delivered a fantastic barbecue spread for our 4th of July party. What was so great about the food and service was the fact that they essentially set up shop at our rental home and cooked most of the food on location. I could see first hand the passion that went into preparing my fabulous meal. We ordered the brisket, pulled pork, barbecue chicken, coleslaw, grilled vegetables, baked beans, and roasted potatoes and had plenty of food for all of our guests. The chicken, vegetables and (surprisingly) the potatoes were the standouts for me - though I ate and enjoyed everything. I'm not sure how he prepared the potatoes but they were absolutely fantastic. The whole experience overall was memorable. Napoleon and his sidekick were extremely personable and produced some pretty delicious barbecue for Las Vegas. And getting to enjoy the delicious smells of the on-location cooking - well that was just an extra bonus! I highly recommend Poppa Naps BBQ - and am now craving some more of the food. Too bad I'll have to wait until next year when I go back. read more

We went on-line to look for caterers as came upon PoppaNap BBQ and after reading some reviews decided to go with him. I have to tell you that from the very beginning he was friendly, personable and professional. We ended up booking him or my sons first bday and it was an awesome experience! PoppaNap pulled up to our house in his truck with BBQ trailer in tow for the while neighborhood to see. Once he started cooking you could smell the food from blocks away. It made our mouths salivate and our stomachs growl in anticipation of this soon to be great meal. PoppaNap's food is made from the heart and I know this because I asked him about his background an what got him into cooking. He responded that he was a teacher for 20 plus years but his true passion was cooking so he followed his heart and started his own catering business. When you read testimonials you can see why he has been so successful. He isn't looking to gauge his guess with prices. He wants repeat customers and h wants all of his customers to have a memorable experience and to never forget his hospitality an great food. Well PoppaNap you have succeeded. There was over 50ppl at my sons party and each guest still talks about your food. Great job and we wish you all the success in the world. You are a great guy and your good is a direct representation of you. Thank you for catering the food at our sons first bday party. We look forward to booking you again soon. read more

Hired Poppa Naps for my backyard wedding. He showed up early to start grilling in his huge steel smoker type BBQ. It made the whole yard smell amazing. As we ran off to take photos he gave me the first taste of the brisket right off the grill and I almost choked...it was so juicy and delicious. I got the triple gut buster 3-meat option with a bunch of sides. Everyone loved it and he left us the left-overs so we were eating it happily for days. His prices are very reasonable and he is just a lovely person all around. He made me feel really special and checked in on me lots of times just to make sure I was doing okay in my planning process. Will definitely use him again anytime I want a caterer. read more

I've had the best BBQ in Texas and pretty much tried all the BBQ places in Vegas and so far, aside from the place in Austin, TX, there's only one place to go in Vegas for BBQ. When I noticed this place pop up all of a sudden on yelp I was pretty excited because of the 5 star ratings and wanted to see if it really lived up to the hype. I hate to be the guy, but I was pretty disappointed. Ribs - This was not fall off the bone, super tender or juicy. It was quite tough to chew on and I thought it was the initial piece I took but when I tried another it was pretty much the same. Brisket - Brisket is by far my favorite BBQ meat, Papa Naps brisket was submerged in a juice which kept it moist. I'm not sure if I like that since it washes away the dry rub that was on it. The first piece I had was ok, a little too much fat on it but nothing really special. Pulled Pork - This is by far the best dish they had and the savior of the meal. Pork was insanely tender, juicy and EXTREMELY flavorful. I usually don't care much for pulled pork, but if they had a store I would just go in for this. The initial serving I took was just perfect the way it was but when I went back for seconds, it was way too salty. It might have been a mistake, but nonetheless it was very good. We ordered a few sides and tried their sauce, but nothing really worth mentioning. I would have given them 2 stars if it wasn't for the pulled pork, but if you're planning to order from him make sure to order it, it is definitely something you don't want to miss and the best I've ever had. read more

Let me start off by saying what a genuinely sweet man Napoleon is. If it wasn't for his super affordable prices, his personality would have sold me. Poppa Naps catered our wedding reception on May 25th and he didn't disappoint! The minute we walked in the door we were getting rave reviews about the food. We had brisket, pulled pork, bacon Mac n' cheese, and the vegetable medley for the vegetarians. Our wedding coordinator made my husband and I plates and set them aside for us knowing we wouldn't have time to make our own mingling and all. Even stone cold the food was incredible! I am definitely using Poppa Naps for all future catering events! read more

Poppa Naps BBQ catered our large volunteer appreciation event. From day one, they provided stellar customer service and ensured we were ready for the 'big day' without having to worry about the food and beverage. The night of the event, they arrived and their team quickly got to work (evident by the delicious smell), and began setting up. The food was served by a friendly staff who were dedicated to providing great service to our volunteers. The food was delicious and really made our 'country-western' theme legitimate with their amazing dishes. We would gladly recommend Poppa Naps BBQ and use them again. read more

Papa Naps was just simply amazing. After we booked them for our Birthday gathering in LasVegas he took over the planning from meeting with the resort we were staying to setting everything up. They came out the day before to take a look at the resort and talk with the manager to confirm everything would go off with out a problem. Then came the food!! They showed up set everything up including all silverware and plates. He came in carved up are food served everyone and made sure everyone was satisfied with there food witch was simply amazing. Great people, great food. I will defiantly be using them again next time we are in Vegas! Oh and did I mention he was about as reasonable as it gets with his pricing. If you are doing a BBQ and you don't use them. Your crazy!! read more

I worked at a wedding that Napoleon catered on The beautiful Crystal Pier all the way in San Diego California! (proves he will drive a long way to make you happy) The BBQ was a major hit! I couldn't believe his prices either. Seriously the most affordable catering I have ever seen. The best part, he just such a genuine, nice, caring, father-like figure to everyone. People just love him. And I can understand why. The world could use more people and businesses like Poppa Naps. read more

Little bit of a wait, but great bbq. Brisket was tender, beans had good flavor, coleslaw was creamy. Hamburger was done first so we had that, liked that we could dress it our selves. read more

Yup another 5 stars! Napoleon and team catered my wedding and it was AWESOME! The food was amazing & the service was perfect. We had all types of things go wrong at our wedding too, a black out the elevators were shutdown for a bit (guess swanky hotels have their bad days). Napoleon didn't skip a beat. Once the food arrived piping hot, no one even remembered what just happened. It was all about ribs, delicious brisket, bacon mac & cheese, BBQ sauce all over everyones face. All our guests had the Totally Carnivorous, Sons with Bacon Mac & Cheese, Grilled Veggies, Baked Beans, Grilled Potato Wedges, Coleslaw and Rolls on the side. All devoured, all delicious!

We booked Poppa Naps for our wedding this past April. He and his staff were very professional and friendly. The food was amazing, the brisket was a hit! Our guests kept coming back for more.

Some of the best BBQ i've ever tasted. Napoleon know's his BBQ. Napoleon brought food to our job for a going away that we had for a co-worker of mine and I think I ate all of the brisket myself. IT'S THAT GOOD! read more

My husband and I decided to throw a luau themed party for his 60th and he was convinced we needed to have a whole pig...so I set out to find a caterer who could provide this for us - here in the Las Vegas area. I contacted Napolean 6 months prior to our party. Within the week, he had come to our house with a sample of his food and we hired him on the spot. We kept up over the next few months and on the day of the party, Napolean and his crew showed up on time, set up and cooked the pig! We were served delicious pork, chicken, potatoes and zucchini. They come in with tables, dinnerware, napkins...virtually everything you'll need for your party. Clean up is quick and easy and Napolean even gave my hubby a t-shirt!! My guests were well fed and happy! I would highly recommend Poppa Nap and crew for your next party! read more

What an awesome dude !!! Had him cater our wedding and he did an absolute fantastic job!! It was soooooo yummy and everything was fresh!! His team did a great job and were all super friendly and professional! Best BBQ u VEGAS!!!!! read more

Poppa Naps BBQ - Caterers Near Me

My company had an Open House event that I was asked to research and hire a lunch caterer and a separate, different dinner caterer for. Based on Yelp reviews, I chose Poppa Naps for the dinner portion of the event. Leading up to the event, planning with Napoleon was quick and easy. Napoleon and team arrived on time, set up quickly and went to work! The food was absolutely, hands-down fantastic. My warehouse crew, many of them dedicated and experienced BBQ guys themselves said that they had NEVER had better brisket in their lives. It was absolutely fantastic. We also had a few sides and some hamburgers cooked up as well. For the excellent food and service provided, the price was absolutely reasonable. We will without hesitation call Poppa Naps again when we have another event. read more

Great service, great food. Highly recommended. Used them for a friends bachelor party and everyone was happy. There was no food left after.

What can I say about Poppa Naps? THE BEST BRISKET WE'VE EVER HAD! We decided to book Napoleon for our wedding this past March by word of mouth without even tasting his food! Napoleon came from Vegas to SD for a New Year's event and took the time to bring us some samples. I can honestly say, when we tasted his brisket, we didn't need a knife, it was so tender that it cut with a fork...we were sold! Not only was he responsive in emails and communication, but he was incredibly easy to work with and I knew that I didn't have to worry about our wedding at all! AND he brought out his 15ft slow cooker onto the pier for our wedding, which was amazing! When we went over our wedding menu we chose a few appetizers, including his riblets and the main buffet of brisket, bbq chicken, bacon mac n cheese, veggies, and coleslaw. We got married on the beach and the menu was perfect and ALL of our guest had wonderful things to say. My husband said that if we won the lottery he would hire Napoleon to be our personal chef, he's from Florida and knows what good BBQ is :) I honestly look forward to another even that I can hire Poppa Naps. Thanks Napoleon for making our rock star wedding! xo read more

We had Napoleon and two of his crew roast a full pig for our rehearsal dinner the day before our wedding. And we wouldn't hesitate in recommending Poppa Naps for any special event. We booked it two months in advance and put down a deposit. And five days before the event, we called to confirm and they had lost our reservation. We were worried for a minute but he handled it professionally and within an hour had secured our event. Other than that everything else was flawless. He arrived early in the afternoon for the event and set up a grill in the back. They took care of absolutely everything with the friendliest attitude. Everything went smoothly and according to schedule. The whole thing cost about $540 for 25 people, which included a full roasted pig and two sides, Santa Maria beans and grilled vegetables. The sides were decent and the pig was absolutely delicious! (The BBQ sauces were fantastic as well). It's an event our friends and family will remember for the rest of our lives. Thank you Poppa Naps! read more

Highly recommend these guys. Came early. Stayed late. Made sure everyone ate and was having a good time. Owner and his whole family/staff were all so super friendly. I have not had a caterer better then them. Mostly other people wanna get in and out. These guys care about what they do. Thanks Poppa Naps. It was great!! read more
