Catering in Beirut: weddings, garden parties and corporate tables

La Tavola catering buffet with mini pastries in a Beirut garden

Most catering questions we get on WhatsApp are the same three: How many people can you do? What’s on the menu? How much? Here are the honest answers.

Guest counts

From about 20 guests (an office lunch, a birthday at home) to 500 (a wedding). Below twenty, order from the restaurant and we’ll pack it for the table; above five hundred, we partner with a second kitchen and tell you so.

Three ways we serve

  1. Buffet — grill platters, pasta trays, pizza, salads, a crispy-chicken station and a dessert table. The best value per head and what most garden parties choose.
  2. Plated — a set menu served at the table, with our staff. Weddings and corporate dinners.
  3. Boxed — individual meals for offices, conferences and film sets. Delivered on time, labelled, no mess.

What’s on the menu

The same kitchen as the restaurant, scaled up:

  • Grill — grilled chicken, half farouj, wings, steak
  • Pasta trays — fettuccine chicken, creamy pesto, penne arrabiata, mac and cheese
  • Pizza and mini pizzas by the tray
  • Crispy chicken boxes, strips and pops
  • Finger food — mini burgers, mini sandwiches, wraps
  • Desserts — crepes, chocolate fondant, cheesecake, fruit platters

For weddings we do a tasting; for everything else we send photos and a menu within 24 hours.

Where

Beirut and Greater Beirut, Metn, Keserwan, the Chouf and most of Mount Lebanon. Ask about anywhere else.
