Chef Lavell worked with us to come up with an original, delicious pescatarian menu that incorporated all of our favorite foods--blue cheese, salmon, and truffles. The Moroccan spiced salmon was a big hit, and the chef's homemade smoked Jamaican jerk sauce could pair well with anything! Another comment on the jerk sauce--it provided our wedding menu a bbq option--an experience we wanted to provide to our out-of-town guests. In addition to the main fish options, the creamy risotto side with Romano cheese, shiitake mushrooms, spinach, and pine nuts was so delicious I could have made a meal of it alone! Even my vegetable-averse parents liked the roasted Brussel sprouts and the salad (a beautiful combination of candied pecans, roasted squash, and pickled red onions). Chef Lavell also sourced our favorite desserts--crème brûlée, chocolate mousse, and pecan pie. Unfortunately, my wife and I were so busy at the wedding that we barely had time to taste the food brought to our table; however, Chef Lavell very thoughtfully and generously provided us with a some prepped meals to-go--we otherwise would have missed out on our own wedding menu! The food was delicious--and so too was the price! The quote from Real McCoy Catering came in at almost HALF those dished out by other Austin caterers. Chef Lavell had suggestions for how to cut costs without significantly impacting the experience, like bringing in our own alcohol and serving buffet-style. He was also attentive to details like making sure the tables were set beautifully--even having the servers' ties match the color of the tablecloths! Chef Lavell is cheery and reassuring; I got a big smile on my face every time I spoke with him leading up to the wedding--no easy feat considering the stress that planning a wedding can bring. Real McCoy Catering is the real deal; do yourself a favor, and give Chef Lavell a call! Cheers, Daniel & Johanna

I was immediately greeted by the owner Mai Lan. She gave me a full run down on her business and was eager to point out that she is all about clean and healthy eating. There are lots of things going on here. What's going on in the kitchen? Mai Lan is a chef who resources local sources for fresh healthy organic (when available) foods. She makes a menu every Sunday for the preceding week of Mon - Fri which she can email if you are on her list. Every day of the week she has a different meal. She can cook and cater or you can stop by and grab a ready made grab-n-go lunch or family meal. Prices are pretty reasonable from $8 - $25 give or take. Call in family meals by 0900 the morning of to give her enough time to have your meal prepped for your pick up time. She also has Paleo Breakfast Taco Kits for $18 - $20. All prices subject to change. What's going on in the small entry room? This is where you will find lots of grass fed nitrate free meats (from R5 Cattle Co. and Pederson's) and extra large organic pasture raised eggs for sale along with some herbal drinks, coffees (third coast and organic moon), pure maple syrup, in-house made bone broths from beef, turkey and chicken (last two are "when available), pure almond butter, sweets, Buddha's brew and various snacks. Prices are reasonable and I was pleased to find a great variety on the meats. Every thing from ground beef, chili meat, kabob meat, steaks, roasts, brisket, liver, tongue, oxtail, bison, bacon sausages including chorizo. I bought some True Tonic and Kombucha Cranberry. I will go back for some eggs and meats for sure. Look at my pics for a price sheet.

She guided us in our menu selection and style of catering, and in the end put together a fabulous spread for our wedding! We had wanted to stay away from the typical meals you find at weddings, and gravitated toward comfort food incorporated with upscale dining. After speaking to her about the types of restaurants and foods we like, she set up a tasting for us and our parents with what we had come up with. She hit the nail on the head with every morsel! There was a selection of appetizers, main dishes and sides to choose from, as well as a refreshing non-alcoholic watermelon juice drink. Everything was phenomenal! We ended up choosing a tuna tartare, open-faced duck taco, and goat cheese tartlet for our cocktail reception appetizers--all super yummy! We also had a mac and cheese station, with truffles as an option to add, which we thoroughly enjoyed! There were also two specialty drinks we came up with last minute (one "girl" drink--a white wine peach sangria, and one "boy" drink--a vodka martini infused with jalapeño and cucumber)--those went fast! The sit-down reception started off with a salad consisting of butter lettuce, blue cheese, candied walnuts and green apple with a lemon basil vinaigrette--sooooo good. We decided to do family style dining for our guests to choose whichever dishes they like and the amount they wanted. For the main dishes, there was an amazing beef tenderloin (really on par with some great steakhouses) with French compound butter & crispy fried onions and a succulent halibut with Italian salsa verde, quinoa and sautéed kale. The sides were potatoes au gratin, which was creamy and rich, and sautéed garlic spinach. Everyone couldn't stop talking about how extraordinary all the food was! Leslie also helped us with our linen selection, which included all the dishware and glassware as well as any extras like custom tables. She really knew the style we were going for, so it made for a quick and easy appointment. I didn't have to worry about dealing with that particular vendor at all--she did all the work for me! Only thing I didn't like was that the vendor didn't provide the same salad plates (they were gold-plated) to match all the silver-plated dinner plates. Other than that, Leslie also dealt with the entire alcohol and bartender situation at my venue, which was confusing to me--that was much appreciated! Overall, I'm super satisfied with how everything turned out, and beyond impressed with the high level of restaurant-quality food that was provided! I would love to go back just to do another tasting cuz it was that good!

I have worked in hospitality and event planning industry in Austin for many years, and finding a good caterer has always proven extremely difficult. Leading up to the event, Brandi was extremely communicative and flexible with my needs. There was a long period of time where things kept getting delayed on my end due to my organization's policies, but Brandi remained so patient, kind, respectful and accommodating throughout the whole process. On the day of the event, her and her team arrived on time and set up a stunning buffet complete with layered linens and touches of greenery. For the price I paid I was expecting just a standard black tablecloth and chafers on a table, so I was very impressed with the presentation. It made it very clear to me that this is a business that takes pride in their work. On top of this already great experience, the food was fresh and delicious. I am not exaggerating when I say every single thing was seasoned to perfection! I went around to each table and asked everyone how they liked everything, and they all commented on how flavorful the food was. Even our staff with dietary restrictions that received alternative proteins were impressed. I had only paid for the basic-level buffet service, so I was't expecting them to do anything beyond serving the food- but I was yet again pleasantly surprised when I looked up and saw Brandi and her team walking around to each table bussing plates. This was not expected of them at all and I was so amazed with the level of service throughout the entire event. I will absolutely be hiring them for more events in the future, and I recommend you do too!

It's a cool little place in downtown Granger with about ten tables inside and several on the back porch as well. John was there and seemed to be a pretty friendly guy as he checked to see how we liked everything. I believe hes normally open 11-6 on Saturday and sunday but I'm not sure about the other days. We got the brisket, pork ribs, sausage, and the boudin, it also came with sliced white bread. I really liked the brisket and thought it was priced well at $10/.5lb...it had really good peppery bark. I also really liked the boudin and the sauce. Next time I go, I'd like to checkout some sides and also try to go sometime if he does beef ribs and to try the pork steaks.
