- Taco Bar starts at $13/person, Burrito Bowl Bar at $14/person, Mixed Bar at $15/person, and packaged bowls from $13/person.
- Large events of 200+ guests can reach lower budget tiers depending on format.
- Delivery and 13% HST are separate from base food pricing.

Catering Pricing FAQ
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.
How much does Mexican catering cost?
Per-person pricing runs from $13–$15: Taco Bar $13, Burrito Bowl Bar $14, Mixed Bar $15, and individually packaged bowls from $13. Large events (200+ guests) can drop to around $10/person. HST and delivery are added on top.
What is the delivery fee?
Delivery is $40 flat for most orders (up to about 50 guests), $50–$60 for large events (100+), and $30 for same-day small orders (10–16 guests). Pickup is free.
Does delivery include setup?
Yes — your food arrives hot in catering trays and we arrange a clean, self-serve buffet line. On-site serving staff and complex venue setups are handled case by case.
Do you provide plates, cutlery and napkins?
Disposable plates, cutlery and napkins aren't included in base pricing, but you can add them for $0.50/person.
