Aaron and Sheena were terrific from the tasting to the post-wedding dialogue. Aaron was very friendly, re-assuring, and helpful at the tasting (even recommending the florist we ended up using). Sheena prepared amazing food, much of which we chose to serve during the reception. At the reception itself, Aaron and his staff were exceptional. The guests were treated quite well and never had to wait long for food or a drink. Everyone commented on how amazing the food was and our special-order vegan friends were amazed that they got a delicious, full meal as they are used to eating undressed salads at most events. The party was still in full swing when they cleaned up to go and they were so unobtrusive and professional. We ended up keeping the bartender a couple hours extra because he was so good! I cannot recommend Aaron and Sheena enough. My husband and I are already planning some events and will definitely only use The Grand Gourmet! They made our special day perfect!

They were professional, friendly, and communicated very well. We had Smoked Salmon Potato Chip Bites, Devils on a Horseback (bacon wrapped dates stuffed with gorgonzola), Bourbon Spiral Ham, Fried Chicken Tenders, Squash Casserole, Broccoli Salad, Bread, Fried Mozzarella Sticks served in mason jars, and Shrimp and Grits served in martini glasses. People loved the food just like I hoped they would. My family loves food so I did not want to have anything so-so at the wedding, but it was all fantastic. I really want to know the secret to their ham! They also put together a get away picnic basket with a bottle of champagne for my groom and me to enjoy in our hotel room in Atlanta, near the airport.

We worked with Trumps Catering for our rehearsal dinner in May 2025, and it was a fantastic…read moreexperience. We hosted around 50 people for dinner, followed by a welcome drinks open house with about 100-125 guests. The venue was clean, spacious, and well-equipped, with plenty of parking and flexibility for our setup. They even allowed us early access to decorate, which made the day much less stressful. All of the food was phenomenal as well, we had all of our guests raving about both dinner and dessert! Jennifer was our main point of contact, and she made planning easy--from selecting the menu and desserts to adjusting our guest count and décor details. She was incredibly responsive and accommodating. The only hiccup was with two unplanned young guests (under 10) who arrived last-minute. The staff quickly added chairs, but we were later charged ~$310 for their attendance. I didn't see this invoice and was charged to the card on file while on our honeymoon. Though the charge was small in the grand scheme, it felt a little steep considering it was buffet-style and the kids were light eaters. Still, that was a minor bump in an otherwise smooth experience. I highly recommend Trumps for any event--they offer great service, beautiful space, and delicious food.

We think that they do a good job serving large groups that want to rent the room as part of the price-otherwise price might be a little high for food that leans toward the bland. Usually one meat or fish dish, one vegetable dish(fresh, not canned) a pasta dish, a salad, and a choice of a fruit or pastry dessert for $25 or so. For Vegetarians-the tossed salad is fresh and roasted vegetables are ok, but we do not like their "lentil shepherds pie" (over cooked lentils with potato slices on top) and most of the pastas are pretty uninspiring. Not gourmet, but ok food in a buffet setting. Service is good as they bring drinks and clear dishes quickly. Tables hold 8 people. Surroundings and rest rooms are clean. Located in a small strip shopping mall, but far enough from the streets that there is no traffic noise. Lots of parking.

I'm pretty sure I could've eaten the entire avocado salsa on my own but had to share. If this place was in Midtown, they would be so popular!

Before I even start with the food, let me just say that the ladies working the counter were as friendly and polite and welcoming as you'll find anywhere!! Just so nice!! I ordered the sampler platter so I could taste all their meats, and for my 2 sides collard greens (incredible!) and Mac & Cheese (delicious!). From the meats, the pulled pork was my favorite, followed closely by the ribs. Chicken and sausage were good as well. Also - the hot BBQ and Sweet BBQ sauces were very tasty and unique. But again - what made the food taste even better was the INCREDIBLE ladies who welcomed me in.
