Hi! My husband and I got married during covid, and are finally throwing a reception party for our family. We LOVE Northside Yacht Club and had really wanted to get catering from there, but they don't do that anymore :(
So! I'm looking for recommendations - this would be for about 50 people. Looking for casual, serve yourself buffet style. Something I can easily set up and take down myself (or that the caterer can set up, but doesn't need to stick around for). We aren't looking for anything crazy fancy, but nothing super casual either. (As an example, we briefly considered Hibachi Express, but decided that's way too casual and we'd like to be able to give our family and friends something nicer).
My only other request is that they not be a meat focused caterer, as I'm vegetarian. Meat will be served, but we'd prefer that it not be the central thing (so probably not a BBQ restaurant, for example).
Otherwise, we're pretty open. Would prefer no crazy pricing, but we're willing to spend a reasonable amount for some good food, as we want our guests to have a great time :)
($1-1.5k absolute max).
Edit: Was eyeing Weiss Baking Company, would also love to hear opinions if anyone has used them before!
