Questions? No worries. Doing business through the internet can be uncertain-We get that!  Ask away because we want you to feel comfortable, confident and secure about booking with us-we're professional-not perfect but no flakes.  Here's a text conversation from a Client who booked us for a holiday event and enjoyed it.

Zipcode 92679  1) The final cost is $350 for 50 people?

Chef Tony Yes,  The $350 for 50 people is our long standing promo special for the taco catering service thats standard in SoCal among quality service competing caterers.  It breaks down to $7 per person, our pricing within our quality circle where others average $9 to $12 per person.  FYI, we use only premium quality meats ie.: Angus Beef,  Al Pastor Quality Pork, Fresh Natural Chicken Leg Meat as other top caterers.

Zipcode 92679   2) plus a $50 surcharge. Grand total $400?

Chef Tony...Yes, The $50 is our maximum surcharge (from $0 to $50) and nominal at that to offset the transit-fuel-drive time so our potential earnings are not absorbed trying to get there and back.  Our actual expense is slightly more ie.: I pay a helper $10 an hour and its an 1 hour drive without traffic and in real time for will be 1.5 hrs each way...so I give my helper $30 to sit for the ride which takes another $30 for fuel and wear & tear and all that are not even considered.  So this we can quote fair, honest prices and give full, quality service equally to the house next door or Santa Clarita and even S. Orange County to equally help out near or far.  Long Beach is $0....we're home based in Long Beach but go out and beyond.

Zipcode 92679  3) the final $300 I can pay the day of the event

Chef Tony...Yes, the final balance of $300 can be settled after the event.  And we do not impose, include or have any hidden cost in our pricing to include gratuity.  We leave that totally to the discretion of our Clients.  I do have a mobile, onsite POS through our merchant processor-Square Register-card swipe that accepts all major credit cards, debit cards and especially AMEX.   And Business/School/Gov't can remit checks.  Also some Clients use partnered banks' Instant Pay- Our home bank in Long Beach is Bank of America DBA Fiesta Taco Party linked with our business email  FiestaTacoParty@gmail.com (for PayPal our linked account is payments@FiestaTacoParty.com  and our website is for viewing only at FiestaTacoParty.com and Not set up for online payments at this time.

Zipcode 92679  4) You guys will serve 7:00 to 8:45/9:00ish?

Chef Tony...Yes, thats the standard 2 hour for guest counts of 50 people or more and we do give a full 2 hours of service.  Some caterers include their setup time in their 2 hours- we do not- we set up on our time and honor a 2 hour service. If we have no event booked after you, we can stick for a bit more if needed-no worries...no charge.  And if you want a guaranteed 3rd hour of service-it'll be $30 extra to pay the labor BUT we've seen in several hundreds of events since opening that, providing you program/structure your event on a timeline, the following service time are well adequate: 25 people or more ! hour & half.  50 people or more 2 hours.  100 people or more 3 hours   500 people-4 hours (or let us know what you need as special event productions is what we do)

Zipcode 92679  5)  Do we keep the "leftovers" into our own containers?

Chef Tony...Yes,  all remaining,  u e elsewhere because we prepare events fresh as a best practice and good business.  Also I do not even attempt to take back food to drop off at some needy location or anything like that to avoid guest mistakenly thinking I recycle food and I can't have that.  Suggested dollor store type foil pans or 'tupperware' type containers for sides, meat, toppings, and pitchers for agua fresca.

Zipcode 92679  6) Do your provide plates, napkins, forks, spoons, etc? Or do I need to provide that?

Yes, I provide all that and I source commercial, disposable product from  wholesale distributors like Restaurant Depot.  Its not the most attractive looking dinnerware  but its sturdy strong, and will not fall apart or soak into your foods and keeps our cost down to offer best pricing (I do bring a set number, a little more than your guest xount & ask your consideration during the service to minimize wasteful plate usage and my pricing does cover the plates needed to serve you BUT not enough plate to support other foods you may have going on.  I can provide the pretty pastel and colored type plates sold at Party America, Hallmark & such but the price will be significantly higher from 15 cents per plate per customer like a colored print plate up to $1 per plate for some Disney Characters, Marvel Superheros or the hottest trend (somewhat saddening since many guest grab a plate, eat a taco & toss the plate just to repeat this three or four times).  I am more than happy to price out any theme plates/dinnerware or sustainable, compostable and green/eco-friendly products you desire
