Frequently asked questions
What's the minimum number of guests for catering?
We cater all of our menu options for 10 or more guests. There's no hard 30-guest minimum — smaller groups just use our custom quote pricing.
Do you offer halal options?
Yes. Our grilled chicken and seasoned ground beef are both halal, and they're available across every catering format.
Can you accommodate vegetarian and vegan guests?
Absolutely. Seasoned tofu and bean & corn are fully vegan, and our toppings and sauces include plenty of plant-based options — vegan guests get a full spread, not an afterthought.
Are gluten-free options available?
Yes. Our chicken, beef and most toppings are naturally gluten-free, and we offer corn tortillas as a gluten-free option.
What about allergies?
We accommodate nut-free, shellfish-free, dairy-free and egg-allergy needs. Just tell us when you book and we'll flag it to the kitchen for proper prep and labeling.
