- The number of people
- The menu you choose
- Whether you need disposables

There’s no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican street food. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night is possible for a crowd, but it’s more work than it looks. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Our taco bar guide explains how.
DIY catering keeps costs down, but the host spends the party serving. Booking a caterer means you can relax with everyone else.
