Catering Services

From full service catering to drop-offs, we offer a wide range of catering services at our location or yours -- to accommodate virtually any event, function, food request, and budget.

Our Menus

We have carefully selected menu items that reflect what we have found to be both appetizing and popular for successful banquet arrangements. However, both our banquet Manager and Chef would be happy to custom plan any menu, whether buffet or sit-down party. From modest hors d'oeuvres to an elegant, full-course dinner, the possibilities are endless.

Approximate capacities reflect standard setup of tables. Larger banquet tables can yield more seats per room.

Full Service

We arrive at your location with staff, stoves, and grills, ready to prepare and time your appetizers and entrees, serve your guests, and clean up, removing all equipment and trash. Any leftover food will be securely packaged in reheatable foil pans for your convenience. Full service is priced according to select menus. A 20% service charge applies.

Banquet Service

Our banquet service staff will professionally setup your buffet selections in chafing dishes at the location of your choice. We attend to your guests' needs, properly package your leftovers, and remove all trash and equipment. A 20% service charge applies.

Drop Off with Chafers

We provide our chafing dishes and Sterno at $10.00 per chafer and supply the food in foil pans that fit in the chafers. We return at your convenience to pick up the chafers, usually within 24 hours. Delivery/service charge of 20% will apply.
