We take dietary restrictions very seriously and can accommodate almost all situations. We ask that you provide as many details as possible and as early as possible so that we can notify the kitchen and plan accordingly. We will also work with you on the event day to make sure that anyone with dietary restrictions is taken care of separately from the rest of the dining individuals.

Catering services start for parties as small as 25 individuals, and can go up as high as 300.

We recommend placing your catering order with Salida Catering at least two weeks in advance. This allows sufficient time for us to plan and prepare your menu, source the freshest ingredients, and accommodate any special requests you may have. For larger events or custom arrangements, giving us even more notice—such as a month ahead—can help ensure we provide the best service possible. However, we understand that sometimes events are planned on short notice and encourage you to contact us directly. We will do our best to accommodate last-minute orders based on our current availability and resources.
