Party Catering
We cook tacos at Los Alamitos birthdays, backyard parties, receptions and club gatherings. The crew brings the grill, cooks on site, serves your guests and clears up before they go.
This is a town of houses on a tight grid with a park every few streets, so the parties here tend to happen close to home. Kids' birthdays at the picnic shelters, backyard parties for thirty or forty, graduation lunches, receptions in the Community Center. We cater all of those, and feeding a few dozen people somewhere within a mile of your own front door is straightforward work for us.
Fourth of July is a big one here. Fireworks are legal in this city, so people have the street over at home rather than driving out to watch a display somewhere else, and those parties run all afternoon with guests turning up across several hours. We cook through a window like that instead of serving at one sitting, so whoever arrives at six eats the same food as the people who came at two.
The city itself runs a lot of events, more than most towns this size, and residents here are used to eating standing up in a park with a crowd. That makes a taco station an easy sell at a private party: your guests already know how it works, and nobody needs persuading to line up for a plate.
We cater club meetings and senior group lunches too. Those usually come with a fixed finish time, so tell us when you need to be clear of the room and we will work the timings back from it.

Our crew arrives with everything they need, so your kitchen stays out of it and there is nothing for you to buy or borrow beforehand.
What is not on that list is anything you need to chase on the day. We bring it, we run it, and we take it away.
Taco bar, taco guys and taco cart are three names for this same service.
Our cooks work your whole service window. The grill does not go off halfway through the party.
We restock the toppings and salsas as guests come through, so the line looks the same to your last guest as it did to your first.
The cart comes to you and goes home with us. Nothing gets left behind for you to deal with.
Everyone tells the cook what they want and watches the plate get made, so you do not have to ask anybody what they eat beforehand.
None of the heat goes into the meat. It is all in the salsas, which sit at the end of the line for people to help themselves.
If food needs to hold until the speeches are done, or go out in two waves because people are arriving all afternoon, say so and we will plan it that way.
Taco catering usually runs about $15 to $30 a guest. A smaller party costs more per head than a large one, because the same crew and the same station turn up either way.
Your total comes down to the guest count, which proteins you pick, whether you add sides or drinks, and how long you want us serving. Send those over and we will confirm the exact figure with you.
Four stages between your first message and the day.
The date, the time it starts, a rough guest count and what the party is for. Tell us if there are small kids, vegetarians or anyone who wants it hot.
We talk through the proteins and the toppings, and anything your guests need us to cook around.
We agree when the crew arrives and how long they serve, which matters most when you have a room booked or a finish time to hit.
The menu, the timings and the total come to you before the day, so nothing is still being decided when the crew pulls up.
We cover the whole city, at houses, parks and halls.
We cook at houses right across the residential grid, at the picnic shelters at Little Cottonwood Park, at Roberts Park and Coyote Creek Park, and at the Community Center when a party is indoors.
Where you are in town makes no difference to the price, whether you are off Katella or over by the Community Center. The price follows your guest count and how long you want us there.
We also cover Rossmoor, Cypress, Leisure World, La Palma, Stanton, Seal Beach, Westminster, Sunset Beach, Buena Park and Midway City.
Send the date, a rough number of guests and what you are celebrating. We will come back with a menu and a price for it.

One guest wants everything on it. The next one wants meat and cheese and nothing else. Both get exactly that, from the same station, without anybody having warned us beforehand.
