Whatever your holiday hospitality needs are, Z Catering will bring the merriment that you and your guests expect this season.

Elegant Gala

Let’s face it, with the recent restrictions from COVID-19, many of us haven’t had a reason to dress up and enjoy a fancy meal with our close friends and family members. So, why not roll out the red carpet and host an elegant gala at your home? You can give everyone a chance to dress in their holiday best and celebrate with good food and even better company. With our full-service buffets, you don’t have to worry about anything but sending out the invitations and enjoying your guests. This is because all of buffets include high-end disposables, a full-service staff, cake cutting, a warming buffet, and breakdown. For this type of soiree, we suggest choosing one the following options:

Rome Dinner ($25 per guest)
An exceptional buffet presentation that includes two appetizers, one entree, one side, homemade bread, and one non-alcoholic beverage.

Sienna Dinner ($28 per guest)
An exceptional buffet presentation that includes two appetizers, salad, two entrees, one side, homemade bread, and one non-alcoholic beverage.

Capri Dinner ($31 per guest)
An exceptional buffet presentation that includes three butler-passed appetizers, salad, two entrees, two sides, homemade bread, and two non-alcoholic beverages.

For an additional $4 per guest, you can add our China package. This includes a dinner plate, fork, knife, water glass, champagne glass, and your choice of linen napkin (ivory, black, navy, or burgundy). For added safety measures, you can also opt to add our “plated option” to the China Package for an additional $5 per guest. All options listed above are subject to a service fee, 18% gratuity, and 7.8% tax. For all of our buffet options, please visit our website.

Casual Gathering

Not feeling like getting all gussied up? No problem! Opt for an ugly Christmas sweater, cozy holiday pajamas, or throwback velour tracksuit instead. Call or send out a text invite to your crew for a fun night in. Get out some board games, set up some beer pong, cue up the cheesy holiday movies, or spin your favorite tunes for an impromptu dance party. Z Catering can deliver appetizers, desserts, and drinks to keep the party going all night. Our convenient drop-off packages (serve up to 10 guests) are designed for events like this. Clean up is easy since we provide disposables for plates and cutlery. Here is what we suggest:
