What People Are Saying…

“What a pleasure working with Live Oak Eats!! We are not local to Emerald Isle and had no idea what direction to go with catering. Thankfully, Live Oak Eats was recommended. Our guests could not stop raving over how delicious it all was.”

— Angela Purcell

“Live Oak Eats is AMAZING! From working with Charly to get just the right menu for our Christmas party to the amazing event with fantastic food. All of our guests raved about the Chicken Marsala and veggies. We will absolutely use them again.”

— Nicole Barnes

“The pimento cheese is to die for and I don’t even like pimento cheese. The braised cabbage is unbelievable and the oyster stew, holy moly the oyster stew. I would order their food every week for an easy dinner option!”

— Kelle Urban

“Chef Will and his crew put the rest of the local restaurants and caterers to shame. It’s always a treat to have food by Live Oak Eats!”
