Reservation FAQs
Q) When are guest counts due?
A) To ensure we can provide the best possible service, we ask for a minimum of 2 weeks' notice for most catering events. Large events (200+ guests) and custom menus require a minimum of 4 weeks' notice.
Final menu selections, order details, and guaranteed guest counts are due 3 business days prior to most events and 5 business days prior to large or custom events.
Please note that decreases in guest counts or order cancellations cannot be accepted within 3 business days of your event, and the client will be responsible for the full invoiced amount. Requests for additional guests or new orders after the final deadline will be considered on a case-by-case basis and may be subject to additional fees.
