Event Catering Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some of the top questions we get about event catering services:

How much does professional event catering generally go for in Miami?

Event catering costs vary widely based on headcount and format, the type of food and drink service you choose, and the number of service hours. Generally speaking, professional event catering in Miami ranges from a per-head price that accounts for ingredients, bar management, and team hours. We provide detailed pricing proposals once we understand your event.

What's the difference between station-style and butler-style event catering?

Self-serve catering formats offer people the freedom to select their own portions and interact with the food display — well-suited to casual or cocktail-style events. Plated dinner service, alternatively, creates a more structured event flow where each guest is delivered on cue. All service styles have their place depending on what you want guests to experience.

How far in advance should I book event catering for my event?

In general, we suggest reserving your catering services no less than 6 weeks in advance. For peak-season gatherings — especially during the holiday season — reserving your spot even earlier gives us time to fully prepare. Earlier bookings also allow our chefs more time to refine your catering plan.

Can your team handle allergy considerations for guests?

Absolutely. We regularly works with diverse special dietary needs — including gluten-free, vegan, and vegetarian requests. When we build your menu, our team collects information about your guests' dietary needs to ensure all attendees has great options.

Do you provide cocktail equipment and service tools with your event catering packages?

Our comprehensive event catering programs encompass all bar essentials and supplies as a standard component of the overall offering.
