Good Questions

How much notice do you need?

The more the better — trays can often happen on short notice, big events book out further. Put your date in the form and we'll tell you straight away if we can make it work.

How does pricing work?

By headcount and menu. Tell us how many people and what kind of event, and we'll come back with a straightforward quote — no packets, no runaround.

Can you handle dietary needs?

Yes — tell us about allergies or vegetarian counts in the form and we'll build the menu around them.

Do you deliver?

We deliver around Greater Cincinnati. Tell us where the event is and we'll confirm with your quote.
