Catering Mexican, honestly
Mexican food is LA's default celebration food, and a taco bar is how the city eats at a party — which is exactly why Carthage builds its Mexican menu around one. The heroes are the slow-cooked meats: beef birria with a rich consommé for dipping, citrus-marinated carne asada, tender barbacoa, and a halal al pastor carved off a lamb-and-beef trompo with charred pineapple. Because we're a halal kitchen there's no pork or chicharrón — but with birria and a proper trompo, nobody's missing it. Chicken tacos, loaded nachos, elote street corn, guacamole and fresh salsas round out a spread that works as a buffet line or a full taquiza station.
Everything comes from one Los Angeles kitchen, so a taco bar can share an event with Lebanese mezze, Korean BBQ or a sushi table — all priced together per guest, no separate taquero fee. Dietary paths are clear: elote, guacamole and salsas are vegetarian or vegan, every meat is zabiha-sourced, and corn-tortilla tacos are naturally gluten-free. Whether it's a quinceañera in the Valley, a wedding in Downtown LA or a backyard party in Orange County, a halal taco bar from Carthage is the easiest way to feed a big, mixed crowd food everyone actually wants.
Mexican catering runs about $15–$116 per guest, all-in, and the price per guest falls as the guest count rises. Here is what a spread costs at the counts people usually ask about.
| Guests | Estimated cost | Per guest |
|---|---|---|
| 25 | $400 – $2,450 | $16 – $98 |
| 50 | $750 – $5,800 | $15 – $116 |
| 100 | $1,500 – $10,100 | $15 – $101 |
| 150 | $2,250 – $14,400 | $15 – $96 |
All-in: the food plus the staff, delivery and setup the service style needs. Tastings, rentals, add-on services and California sales tax are the only additions, and there is no service charge. The crew, setup and delivery are shared across the room, so the price per guest falls as the count rises. Every menu halal · zabiha-sourced.

Questions
Mexican catering, answered honestly
What does Mexican catering cost per platter in Los Angeles?
Taco platters, trays and pans run $40–$160 — the mixed taco platter and full pans of enchiladas and tinga at the top, rice and beans at the bottom, individual burrito boxes from $17. A taco spread for thirty guests typically lands between $8 and $14 per person depending on fillings.
Is your Mexican menu halal — including the carne asada?
Yes — carne asada, al pastor-spiced chicken, and every other meat here is zabiha-sourced, and the salsas are made from scratch with no wine or spirits in any recipe. Corn tortillas keep much of the menu naturally gluten-free, and every tray is labeled.
Can you run a live taco line at our event?
Yes — the taco line is our most requested live station: tortillas warmed to order, two or three fillings, and the salsa bar built to your heat preference. It keeps a hundred guests moving without a bottleneck, or the same spread arrives assembled for drop-off.
Which Mexican dishes do LA offices order most?
The build-your-own taco spread wins team lunches by a mile — it feeds vegetarians, gluten-free, and hot-sauce loyalists from one table. Quesadilla platters and burrito boxes are the tidy option when the meeting runs through lunch.
