Confirm sauces and cheese ingredients if your guests have egg or rennet exclusions. Taco Bars include three suitable sauces.
01Choose a meat-free main
Tofu is available in tacos and packaged bowls. Tofu and bean-and-corn are both listed for the bowl bar. Fish and shrimp are not vegetarian choices, even though they appear elsewhere on the general menu.
02Make dairy a deliberate choice
Shredded cheese and sour cream are options to discuss for vegetarian meals. Tell us if you exclude eggs or require cheese made without animal rennet; the team needs to check the specific ingredients before confirming.
03Keep vegan portions distinct
If some guests avoid all animal ingredients, give their count separately. Do not treat a vegetarian bowl containing cheese as vegan. Request the vegan menu configuration and confirm separate toppings or packaging as needed.
04Add to the spread thoughtfully
For a larger celebration, ask about cheese quesadillas, chips with salsa or guacamole, or a fruit platter. These are optional menu items rather than automatic package inclusions; confirm ingredient suitability, portions and price.
Pick your serving style. Prices are standard base-format starting prices in CAD; your quote confirms dietary substitutions and the final menu.

01
One buffet for a vegetarian group
Choose a taco bar for a shared tortilla spread or a bowl bar for two plant-based fillings over rice and beans. State the group’s dairy and egg preferences before the topping and sauce list is finalized.
02
Vegetarian lunches within an office order
Count vegetarian, vegan and other meals separately. Labelled packaged bowls make distribution straightforward. Include the floor, room, reception instructions and serving time in the delivery request.
Start with the main-meal headcount, then request separate portions for sides. Ask the team to confirm whether extras are per person, per piece or per tray so the quote reflects what you actually need.

Yes. La Rio’s offers vegetarian Mexican catering for 10 or more guests in Toronto and its listed GTA service areas. Options include tofu taco bars, tofu and bean-and-corn bowl bars, and individually packaged tofu bowls.
What is the price of vegetarian catering?
Standard Taco Bar and packaged burrito bowl formats start at $13 per person, and the Burrito Bowl Bar starts at $15. Confirm the vegetarian filling allocation and any substitutions in the written quote. Delivery, optional sides and 13% HST are separate.
What is the difference between your vegetarian and vegan menus?
Both can use tofu and bean-and-corn. A vegetarian order may request dairy toppings such as cheese or sour cream if they suit the guests. A vegan order excludes animal ingredients throughout the meal. Sauces, bases and any special ingredient requirements must be confirmed for the selected menu.
Can we have a vegetarian taco bar without meat or fish?
Yes. Request seasoned tofu as the filling and specify that no meat, fish or seafood should be included. The team will confirm the filling allocation, tortillas, four topping choices and three suitable sauce choices for your order.
Can vegetarian and vegan guests share one catering order?
Yes. Provide separate meal counts and dietary requirements. You can request a buffet with suitable toppings served separately, or individually packaged bowls. The catering team confirms whether the required packing and serving arrangements can be supported.
Can you accommodate egg-free or specific cheese requirements?
Share those requirements before booking. Vegetarian preferences differ, and the team must check sauces, cheese ingredients and other menu components. Do not assume an egg-free, rennet-free or allergen-free claim from the vegetarian label alone.
Do you cater vegetarian office lunches and parties?
Yes. Packaged tofu bowls suit individual lunch distribution, while taco and bowl bars suit guests eating together. Send the event date, time, address, headcount and dietary quantities to receive a written quote.
