What We Cook At

The parties we cater in Westminster

The big family occasions come first around here. Quinceañeras, baptisms, first birthdays, graduation parties, anniversaries and reunions, with long guest lists and several generations in the room. If that is your party, it is the kind we are built for.

A long guest list is the detail to lead with when you write to us. Our cooks work a counter rather than setting food out for people to help themselves, so two hundred guests get served at a steady pace instead of in one rush. More cooks go on the counter when the number is high, and that is what keeps the line moving.

Some of what we do here is one part of a bigger spread, where there are several caterers feeding the same room. That is normal work for us. Tell us what else is going out and we will fit our end around it.

Block parties are their own thing and this city has plenty of them. A street closed off with neighbors bringing tables out is one of the easier jobs we do: we set the counter up at the curb, serve from there and take it away again, so no household ends up hosting the food on its own.

Our Approach

What the crew brings and what it does

Everything the cooking needs travels with us: the grill, the fuel, the proteins, the tortillas, the toppings and the salsas, plus the staff to cook and serve. Your kitchen is not part of it at any point.

What we need from you is somewhere level to stand the counter and enough room for guests to line up in front of it. That holds whether the party is in a yard, at a park or in a booked hall, and it is why a park with no kitchen behind it works the same as a room with one.

When service ends the crew breaks the counter down, clears the area it worked in and loads out. Nothing is left for you to return, store or wash.

What Good Looks Like

What you can expect from us

Five things that hold true on every booking.

Plates are made as they are ordered

Your guest asks at the counter and watches it happen, so nobody is handed something decided for them in advance.

Nothing is cooked hot

The salsas sit at the end of the counter, so heat is added by whoever wants it and skipped by whoever does not.

A meat-free choice is always there

Out on the counter with the rest of it, from the first guest to the last.

Staffed to the number you tell us

A long guest list gets more cooks. That is the difference between a line that moves and one that stalls.

We clear up our own area

Breaking down and cleaning where we served is part of the job rather than something you arrange afterward.

Booking Process

How a booking works

Four stages, and only the first one asks anything of you.

  1. 01

    Your first message

    The date, the start time, how many you are expecting, the occasion, and where it is: a yard, a park, a hall or a closed street.

  2. 02

    The menu

    Which proteins, what goes alongside, and anything your guests cannot eat. A high head count changes the quantities, so the number matters here too.

  3. 03

    The hours

    When the crew arrives and how long the counter stays open, worked back from when you want people eating.

  4. 04

    Confirmed in writing

    Menu, hours and total, all agreed before the date.

What It Costs

How Much Does Taco Catering Cost in Westminster, CA?

Around $15 to $30 a guest is the usual range. A big guest list works out lower per head than a small one, since one crew and one counter have to turn out whatever the number.

From there it moves with the head count, the proteins on the menu, anything extra like sides or drinks, and the hours you want us serving. Send those over and we will put an exact figure on it.

Planning Answers

Questions Westminster hosts ask us

What kinds of events do you cater in Westminster?
Quinceañeras, baptisms, first birthdays, graduation parties, anniversaries, reunions, block parties and company lunches.
How far in advance should I book taco catering in Westminster?
Three to six weeks ahead covers most dates, and longer is worth it for a wedding or a large party. Send the date first; the menu can be settled after.
We are expecting two hundred guests. Can you handle that?
Yes. We put more cooks on the counter at that size so the line keeps moving rather than backing up. Give us the number when you send the date.
Our party is at a park, not at the house. Does that work?
Yes. We need level ground for the counter and room for a line in front of it, and nothing else: no kitchen and no power.
Can you do vegetarian guests and mild options?
Both. A meat-free choice is out on the counter, and because nothing is cooked hot, a guest only gets heat by taking a salsa. Note what your group needs on the form.
Is the food cooked at the party or brought ready-made?
Cooked there, in front of your guests. Tortillas are warmed as the orders come in, so none of it has been sitting in a tray.

The Walk Back For Seconds

The sign it went well is the second trip. Guests who came over once, ate standing up talking to somebody, and then went back for another one without having to ask anybody first.
