Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between drop-off and staffed catering?
With drop-off, we deliver family-style trays with optional place settings, ready to eat, and your team serves itself — no one from our staff stays on site. Staffed full-service means our team is there to set up and serve. Drop-off is our most economical service style; staffed events of 50+ guests need 5+ days' notice.
How much notice do you need for drop-off?
About 48 hours for drop-off orders. The sooner you reach out, the easier it is to lock in your date.
Do you deliver across San Diego County?
Yes. We cater across San Diego County from our Ocean Beach kitchen. Delivery is available and the fee varies by distance — let us know your location for an exact quote.
Can one drop-off order cover different diets?
It can. Every tray is halal-sourced, and we offer a full vegan menu plus gluten-free-friendly builds. A single order can serve halal, vegan, gluten-free-friendly, and meat-eating guests together.
