At catering scale

Catering Mediterranean, honestly

Mediterranean cooking is our founding kitchen — the food of North Africa, the Levant, and the old trade routes that tied them together. It moves from a mezze table of hummus, baba ghanoush, and tabbouleh to charcoal shawarma carved to order, slow tajines, and royal couscous crowned with vegetables and chickpeas. Our Mediterranean catering menu is built the way that table is meant to work: cold spreads first, bread everywhere, and grilled and braised mains that hold beautifully on a buffet line. Every meat is halal · zabiha-sourced, every dish cooked from scratch in our own kitchen, and every platter sized in real catering formats — from a board for ten to full per-guest service.

In Los Angeles this is the menu we quote most — it feeds weddings and corporate lunches with the same ease, because almost every dietary path runs through it naturally: vegan mezze, gluten-free grills, dairy-free stews. Each dish is labeled so a mixed guest list reads at a glance, and because everything comes from one chef-led kitchen, a Mediterranean spread can share the table with our BBQ trays or Persian rice and be priced together for your headcount.

Questions

Mediterranean catering, answered honestly

What does Mediterranean catering cost per platter in Los Angeles?
Most Mediterranean platters and trays land between $40 and $130 — mezze boards run $65–$130, mains like shawarma and tajines $95–$180, and individual boxed meals start at $15. Every platter states how many guests it serves, and per-guest service pricing is available for plated events.
Is the whole Mediterranean menu halal?
Yes — every protein on this menu is zabiha-sourced by default, cooked with no alcohol in any preparation, and labeled per dish at service. Vegan mezze, gluten-free grills, and dairy-free stews are marked on the menu above, so a mixed guest list reads at a glance.
Can Mediterranean catering run as drop-off, buffet, or live stations?
All three. Mezze spreads and trays travel beautifully for drop-off; the charcoal grill carves shawarma to order at live stations; and full buffet or plated service comes staffed. Tell us the format in your proposal request and we price it to your headcount.
Which Mediterranean dishes work best for large events?
The mezze board opens almost every event we cater — it holds perfectly and feeds vegans and meat-eaters alike. For mains, charcoal shawarma and royal couscous scale from twenty guests to three hundred, and the tajines hold temperature on a buffet line better than almost anything we make.
