We hired Southern Crust catering for a welcome party for about 75 of our out of town guests and family the night before our wedding and it was a huge success. We had tried their food before at work functions and were impressed. We were equally impressed how smooth everything went at our party and how easy the Southern Crust team made this for us with all we had going on. They took care of everything and didn’t miss a beat. The food is delicious and the staff is very friendly and very professional. We highly recommended them and hope we have another chance to work with them again in the near future More...

A terrific company with a presentation that will stun all of your guests! Southern Crust was a joy to work with through the entire process. Great options and the event went so smoothly. The staff were all friendly and very personable. The pizza was the best we had eaten and the truck was amazing. If you need a “wow” factor added to any special event, Southern Crust is the company you need to call. Thanks again for everything! The couples shower was a huge success!!! More...

I cannot say enough good things about Southern Crust. We hired them for our son and daughter-in-laws’ wedding rehearsal dinner. They were completely professional but also made the evening fun for everyone. The food was delicious and the staff members, Mike, Anthony and David went above and beyond to make the night special. I would hire them again in a heart beat! More...

I used Southern Crust for my wedding in April of 2019, and buckle in because this is going to be a long and gushy review! From the very first interaction with Karen in the sales team, I knew I was in amazing hands . Karen was very personable and answered all my questions (which were a lot, since I had never used a food truck for an event before), she gave me real, heartfelt advice and wasn’t trying to “upsell” me into an expensive package with lots of add ons. She ended our first call by inviting me to an event the truck would be at over the weekend, so that I could try the product without having to book a full “tasting”. When I got to see the truck itself for the first time, I fell completely in love. It is a statement piece with a vintage/rustic vibe and adorable set up. It served as an amazing photo opportunity for my husband and me, since he had a background it "tossing pies" and my guests loved how it contributed to the ambiance of the wedding. The pizza is out of this world, and I still have guests commenting to me about how it is the best they have ever had (and we had guests from Chicago and New York!). Their unique combinations for their specialty pies, elevates what could be seen as a basic food into a culinary experience. The Pistachio Pesto pizza will leave a lasting memory on your taste buds! My next Southern Crust interaction was with Darlene, and I worked closely with her through my wedding planning and up to the day of. I don’t think I will be able to fully express how amazing she is! Darlene is obviously passionate about her food and curating an experience for your event. With the wedding package you are able to custom make a “bride” and “groom” pizza, and she was so excited to bounce ideas of each other, run tests for the combinations, and suggest modifications. She sources all of her ingredients locally and literally days before your event, so everything feels very personal. She also went above and beyond in helping me execute a wedding cake idea that they did not charge me any additional fees for and took so much stress off my plate. Darlene was available to me via texts and phone calls, and would excitedly send me photos from their events where she had tried a new bruschetta or salad. Finally, when it comes to the staff working the truck, you will not find a better crew. They are fun a dynamic team that obviously enjoy what they do. They are super helpful when it comes to explaining the ingredients of pizza’s to guests, accommodating special requests, and keeping a fun atmosphere going. They also are super efficient in the way they operate, from set up for the appetizers, cranking out pizzas for the entrée, transition to deserts (The s’mores are AMAZING), and then breaking down like pros. All in all, it doesn’t matter what your event, book this company! They are a family shop and the personal touch shows, but they are going to explode in this industry and it is going to be tough to nail them down for a date More...

What’s your signature dish?
Executive Chef and Co-founder Bryan Lewis has perfected our recipes over years of learning and is supported by Master Chef Patrick Beal, who has 14 years in the Neapolitan Pizza world. Our twist on classic neapolitan pies garnered rave reviews all across the greater Atlanta area from Rome GA to Chattahoochee Hills winning the coveted NACE Awards in our first-ever appearance in the competition. Our 'less-is-more' philosophy coupled with highest quality toppings including fresh greens, aged cheeses and locally sourced toppings ensures our signature pies always taste fresh and delicious with Fan favorites including our very own Pistachio Pesto and seasonal Farmers Pie with white sauce. Hard to beat our Braised Meatballs as these are also a big fan favorite. Our salads also play to our less-is-more style with incredible house dressings or your choice.
How do you go about creating the perfect menu for your clients?
First and foremost by listening. We do have our signature apps, sides, salads and pies, but we listen carefully for cues on what our customers are seeking. Our twist on everything from Corporate breakfast events to the late night wedding snacks are hard to beat and more often than not, we serve surprising and incredibly delicious takes on everything we serve...that go beyond the standard 'been there done that' menu's traditionally found with normal catering. Our having a wood-fired brick oven certainly is an important difference in our hot, fresh service - all coming on the back of our gorgeous 1953 Vintage Truck we call 'Belle'
What do you love most about your job?
We blow people away at every event!!! No matter where we go...folks fall in love with our truck, staff and food - and take time to discover our wood-fired oven, beer taps and it is rewarding to be a part of such a cool offering.
What inspired you to start your own business?
We're a family with a rich entrepreneurial history and our children, including Exec Chef Bryan Lewis, who already has a solid number of successes under his belt in the event, advertising, restaurant, catering and real estate fields...so we are all comfortable breaking ground on new ideas and certainly Southern Crust Catering - which features our fully restore mobile vintage catering trucks are among the families hottest new offering.
Why should our clients choose you?
Our 'Happy Customer' rate is unprecedented - with 100% of our customers loving our beautiful vintage Chevy Truck, friendly staff and amazzingly tasty foods. Sure we may miss here and there with a small element, but batting 100% to date on the overall deliverable is hard to beat. People love our super high-quality, but casual style. We're not a food truck, but a full-service caterer that works with the advantage of having a wood-fired brick oven on wheels to ensure only the freshest foods being served...right down to our signature over-baked desserts - s'mores or peach cobbler anyone?
