I used Lother's catering for an employee event (pig roast for 130 people) and couldn't be happier. They went out of their way to take care of us and the food was delicious. I would use them again and recommend them to anyone. Great job by Jeff and his team!

We used Lothers to cater our wedding in September and we were not disappointed! The food was delicious, our friends and family have brought up multiple times how good it is. The bourbon chicken was our favorite! The staff was friendly and did a great job!

My wife originally tried Lother's at a bridal show and just had to have them caterer our wedding! The food was outstanding and our guests are still talking about it. We had the Braised Beef Short Rib and Chicken Florentine and both were delicious. Not only was the food fantastic, but the service was outstanding as well. Dawn and John were both very professional. We highly recommend booking with Lother's.

We just had a wedding with 270 people. We had so many compliments on the food. The food was amazing and the staff was great. We are so glad that we chose Lothers. Wish there was a way to give 6 stars.
