Good to know
The questions we hear most about buffet catering in Tampa Bay.
Our event buffets run 24 to 28 per guest. The Build-Your-Own Taco Bar and Mac & Cheese Bowl Bar start at 24, and The Executive Grill steakhouse buffet is 28. That price covers the full themed spread: salad, two proteins, starch, vegetable and the toppings bar. A dessert platter adds 3 per guest. Pricing does not include tax or service fee, and bar packages, servers, china and linens are priced separately on our Bar, Staffing & Rentals page.
At 24 to 28 per guest, food for 100 guests runs roughly 2,400 to 2,800 before tax and service fee. If you would rather have passed hors d’oeuvres and coursed service for a group that size, our Full-Service Events packages are built for 100 or more.
Event buffets start at 20 guests. For small party catering of 10 to 19 people, our delivery & pickup menu has platters, boxed lunches and build-your-own stations with a 10-guest minimum.
