    We have been working with Sassool for event rentals, for a few years and primarily work with Simone. Simone is always so professional and easy to work with. She places orders ahead of time and returns the orders when they are supposed to and is always easy to communicate with. I personally also enjoy eating at Sassool and find myself eating there at least once a week. The food is always absolutely delicious, fresh, and wonderful quality. Everyone that I come in contact with at Sassool is always so polite and professional. I also love the fact that they are a locally owned restaurant and feel great about supporting a local business.

    • Serves Durham, NC for additional fees

    Waiter's Choice Catering has been serving the Charlotte community since 1989. We are a family-owned business committed to providing handcrafted food and exceptional service at affordable prices. Our design & production team will help you craft the perfect day, a celebration reflecting your unique sense of style and taste.

Waiter’s Choice is dedicated to developing a relationship with our clients to reflect their unique love for each other, beginning with a complementary tasting and ending with matching the dream to the budget.

    We worked with Margie and her team for our January 2023 wedding. We weren’t really sure what we wanted going into the consultation, but Margie helped us narrow down what we wanted and we ended up with three stations. Tacos, pasta, and sliders. They accommodated our guests with dietary restrictions very nicely. For example for our vegans, they often get a plate of mixed vegetables as their meals at weddings. Waiter’s Choice made BBQ jackfruit sliders for them and had pasta made with chickpeas so they had options to choose from. We didn’t get to eat much at our wedding as is usually the case, but we were happy to find a bag from Waiter’s Choice packed up with all off the different foods we had as well as a bottle of champagne. We both got colds after the wedding so we were very happy to live off those leftovers for a few days!
