If this ain’t the worst food I have ever ate!!! Y’all need to closed down asap. Had take out yesterday and I have never in all my life had some of the most nasty dirty collars. Baked chicken was dry and over cooked.
I can’t believe how nasty this food was . Whyyy . Who is back there giving trash out to eat . I’m cussing them out when they open , cause baby no . Closed down . Literally eating dirt on the collars , because nobody cleaned them BEFORE COOKIN IT . Wow . 40$ gone , . I’m not giving gon get on those bbq ribs , literally drown my rib with bbg so I wouldn’t see how fked up that rib was . This is crazy to me lol I love food too . Hell no
Her "Security" was horrible. His attitude was poor. Her attitude was poor as well. Very rude people. We will never use this establishment again.
My favorite spot to eat. Omg the sweet potato soufflé is amazing.
I enjoyed the Sunday brunch just moments ago! Saving my peach cobbler for later on tonight. I had the meatloaf which was so juicy and flavorful, best I’ve had! I also had the mac n cheese which was creamy and paired well. Lastly I enjoyed the greens which wasn’t too spicy and I liked that a lot! Got full off only half of my plate and I’ll definitely be eating here again :)
Nice people. Terrible caterers. Poor quality food. Poor service. Extremely unprofessional. Ran out of food even when I purchased 15 extra meals. I didn’t even get a meal at my own event.
Pork chops had no seasoning and very tough, collard greens had to much vinager, yams were bland. Don't waste your money.
Just excellent setvoce
I don't write reviews to often but this one I had to do. I hadn't heard of this place until three days ago. After seeing the food, tasting some of it, and hearing how much it cost. I could not believe it! Everything looked dried out like it was cooked days before the event and then reheated. Very bland there was no soul in that food. This was very disappointing to say the least. The total cost for this food was insane $1000, it wasn’t a lot of food and majority of the food was thrown away. I will NEVER recommend or go there to eat EVER!! I would say more but why! We learned our lesson!
Sad to say...my first experience with Ms. Mary’s will be my LAST. I was so disappointed. The pasta salad was dry with discolored tomatoes...the chicken was unevenly fried with no batter on several pieces...the shrimp were soggy with soggy garnish and the other food was just—ok at best. And...the cost???...didn't even come close to matching what was received, both qualitatively and quantitatively. I love to support my community but this time my community didn’t rise to the occasion. It was a very special day we were celebrating and thankfully, we didn’t allow this to steal our joy. I hope this review is taken seriously and used as a tool to be better. Blessings to you and yours!!!

The food is beyond unsatisfactory! My sister and her fiancé paid $850 for food to be catered for 20 people! The food was horrible and to top it off we had someone else call requesting the same amount of food and she was quoted $350! When asked for an itemized invoice, we did not receive even after requesting several times! I do NOT recommend this restaurant to anyone not even for a quick snack!!
Run! In the opposite direction, away from here unless you have an unyielding need to eat food that is bland, dry and tough! Unless you feel that paying 1000 to feed twenty people is fair. I’m talking about feeding 20 people 40 pieces of dry chicken, of which we threw at least 30 pieces away because the were NOT palatable, a pan of sweet potatoe soufflé which was decent but not good, DRRRRRRY pasta salad in which we had to dump a whole bottle of vinaigrette and some salad seasoning into to resurrect, a tray of shrimp, and some dried out meatballs! At $1000/20=$50/person! For that???? But I’m Ok.You may be saying “Why did you agree to that?” Long story short, due to the pandemic my fiancé and I had to reschedule our wedding and the venue we had to choose for the dates we wanted doesn’t have Ms Mary’s as an approved caterer! You’d think the way the world is set up, vendors would issue refunds for events that can’t take place as planned due to this horrific virus. But I get it, that’s their livelihood. So she offered to let us use the $1000 we had paid as a deposit on another event! Ok cool! I was good with that. At least we were getting something for our money! I emailed the company and asked for an itemization for cost and of course never got one. You know why don’t you? Yep! Can’t justify that for those products.I was good with it and told my bride to be not to worry about. She complied. But when you get calls about how HORRIFIC the food was, not from just one guest but from ALL 20, it makes you wonder what’s going on. Obviously, according to her ratings on Google, I’m not the first one to have the same experience! But I do intend to warn as many people as I feel necessary about what I experienced. I emailed the owner about my disgust with our experience and she called me back visibly upset. We exchanged view points and at the end SHE HUNG UP IN MY FACE!? She was upset that she couldn’t confuse me or talk circles around me. But if it happened to her with some service, she’d be livid as well. Mind you, I emailed, she called. But it’s all good.I’m just telling you that THE TASTING WAS GOOD, but the food we received was horrible. I felt like a timeshare owner who purchased the model that was like the same quality they would be staying in, but when they arrive to check in, they got an old room that made the entire trip miserable!Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else! We were told by others and didn’t listen. I fully regret it. It’s not about the money. If the god was great, and her guest were happy, I’d be smiling. After all, I paid to enhance an experience. This almost shut the bridal shower down! So glad my Babe and her friends are resilient and didn’t allow that to prevent them from enjoying their evening!GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. ANYWHERE ELSE. I’d bet It would be better than this stuff!!!!
Recently had a meal catered by this vender at an event. The food was tolerable at best. The beef was so dry it was difficult to swallow. If you are looking for someone to cater your even, keep looking if you want your guests to have a decent meal...or any meal at all. This cater actually ran out of food before all the guests were served.
I will NEVER eat here again, worst experience EVER. the food was DISGUSTING. and being a person who cooks I could tell the food was not fresh it tasted like they cooked it last week and just reheated it when my order came in. so disrespectful. I got the herb chicken with mac and yams. it was pitiful I should've took a picture. everything tasted old, you could tell they cooked nothing that day and this was on a MONDAY ! NEVER AGAIN
I got the smothered pork chops!! Yum yum ! I thought the sweet potato was apple crumb because it was so dark. The young lady who took the order was very nice and answered my questions and made suggestions. I will go back to eat !
