The working staff busted their humps to provide a fantastic meal fit for a king. Oh my God, it was fantastic. However, the owner was a total ass. He arrived enebriated, proceeded to say (upon arrival) that he would start by drinking a couple of shots and his staff would be in charge. We chuckled thinking he was joking. He was not joking. He got totally sh*t faced. He drank our beer, helped himself to private liquor. He was found going through several bedrooms. He was "busted", but that didn't deter him. While everyone was dining, he went downstairs to help himself to more liquor. When he finally parked his butt in the dining area, he sat in a chair and barked orders to his staff. I would have been mortified if I was a part of his staff. Although I highly recommend this business for their food, DO NOT ALLOW THE OWNER INTO YOUR HOME!. He may have thought he would never have to deal with the wedding guests again and could get away with his unprofessional behavior, but I am a LOCAL. Trust me, I will spread this review as much as possible. 5 STAR FOOD, 0 STAR OWNER! Deb Hunton Kitty Hawk, NC

Service, quality and presentation were all very poor…read more We wanted a couple of meals prepared for our group of 10 renting a beach house together last summer. Mike agreed to deliver the food weeks before. Then at last minute, as we were finishing up a 10-hour drive with little kids in the car, Mike called and asked us to pick up the food. We were exhausted. Traffic was really bad. We didn't know the area, and it would be inconvenient, defeating the purpose. We said no. He complained, and then charged us an EXTRA $100 after he had already agreed to deliver the food. Whaaaaat??? I wasn't going to post this review until my wife received an invoice 2 weeks ago for the $100 delivery charge that he invented after the fact. No, we will not pay it Mike. Presentation was terrible. Not what you expect from a caterer. The BBQ didn't look fresh. See pictures. Taste was bland. Nobody ate it. Dessert looked and tasted like it was from a Duncan Hines box. We asked for some ham and turkey sandwiches. He gave us one slice of cheese and one slice of cold meat on each sandwich, so ratio of bread to meat was off. Bread didn't taste fresh. Fixings were all jarred from grocery store. Pretty sure he bought everything in a grocery store and put it in foil tins, but charged catering prices. Save yourself a ton of money and frustration and order delivery from a local restaurant or go to grocery store yourself for this level of quality.

From start to finish, working with Mike was a pleasure. My family and I hired Mike to create our…read moreThanksgiving meal this year. When I told Mike that there would be 16 people, he didn't even bat an eye. He was able to create a traditional Thanksgiving meal that everyone (even the 6 kids) LOVED! I was able to e-mail Mike a menu and from there he took over. He took care of all the shopping as well. He was on time with his delivery and even threw in a few extra things! The meal was outstanding. My family and I spent the majority of the dinner talking about how delicious every item was and we were each saying what our favorite thing was. (As a side note, the stuffing was the best I have ever had!). All of my interactions with Mike were very professional and his response time in getting back in touch with me was quick. I would recommend Mike to anyone and look forward to working with him in the future.

We cannot recommend Johanna's Catering enough! The food at our wedding was absolutely…read moreincredible--so much so that countless guests told us it was the best wedding food they've ever had. We opted for the heavy hors d'oeuvres and the duet plate dinner, and every dish was exceptional. The seared beef with demi-glace sauce was cooked perfectly and received endless compliments along with the local caught fish! Also, the potato pave is a must as a side! As the bride and groom we added crab cakes to our plate and they were amazing. We used Johanna's bartenders, who were wonderful, and later in the evening, Espresso Martinis were served, which our guests absolutely loved. The staff was amazing--they served all the food and even handled cleanup seamlessly. Johanna herself was wonderful; we scheduled a tasting before the wedding, and she was incredibly helpful, friendly, and attentive. Her service is truly top-notch. If you're planning any event, especially a wedding, Johanna's Catering is the one to go with. Highly, highly recommend!

if I could give zero stars, I would. The owner is very unprofessional. He was booked for a wedding…read morewhere he forgot the beef, and was told to go back and get it because it was paid for already. This turned into him being 3 hours late. Upon arrival, he was irritated for having to go back and get the food that was paid for and was slamming the house doors. Then out of nowhere, he just grabs the food and starts packing it back to his truck. The groom was trying to figure out what was going on, then the chef proceeded to call the groom a f*cking hillbilly, while the groom had no idea what was even happening. The chef then pulls a knife on the groom in the driveway and says "I'll filet you like a fish." All around unprofessional on someone's wedding day, and did not address any issues with the bride or groom, just immediately lost his cool over a guest at the wedding and then got hostile. If there was a guest that offended him, he should have taken it up with the bride and groom. not freaked out in a rage, leave with food, threatening people with a knife and ruining their reception. I highly do not recommend booking this company.
