FAQs

Questions people usually ask before booking

What comes in each boxed lunch?

The torta boxes include an individually packed sandwich plus chips and salsa. The soup, salad, and sandwich option works well when you want a more mixed office-style lunch.

Can we split the order between different choices?

Yes. That is common for meetings and staff lunches. Use the notes field to tell us how you want to split counts or where you need labeling.

What is the minimum order?

Boxed lunch pricing starts at 25 guests. Smaller groups can still order, but the minimum charge applies.

Can we add drinks or dessert?

Yes. Agua fresca, coffee, cookies, and guac with chips are easy add-ons when you want the order to feel more complete.
