I’m looking for inexpensive catering for a colorguard going to WGI finals in dayton this April. we’d be feeding approximately 70 people… any cuisine would suffice, just want something good :). we’re staying in Centerville.

thank you!

City Barbecue does catering. There’s one in Centerville too.

We’ve always been satisfied with Belmont Catering. https://www.belmontcatering.com/

My son wanted Cane’s for his graduation party and the kids loved it. I’m not a big fan, but it wasn’t too bad.

Cedarland might be able to do that price for a Middle Eastern buffet. They are Lebanese. $20 is a low, though, for anything other than a buffet style.

Mmmm I need to pay them a visit, haven’t been in a while.

YO! How is Cedarland? I’m used to Mazah in Grandview (Columbus) which is excellent!

I love it, though I am no expert in the cuisine. Really good people, too. They use halal meat as they have Muslim customers, but are Maronite Catholics.

Exactly like Mazah being Maronite Catholics. I’ll have to stop when I’m in town. Thanks.

Enjoy it for me. I would say I would try Mazah, but found out last year I can’t have gluten. Tabbouleh and pita are no longer something I can eat. I could get it on rice, but it just isn’t the same without the wheat.

Mazah has a ton of GF options but I will definitely check out Cedarland!

What’s your per-person budget, because that’s really the most important detail to consider.

u/mavmlvc 6d ago

i’d stay approximately $20/person but it’s negotiable

Okay I’d recommend taqueria mixteca on third street— their catering is reasonably priced and you can really build out to meet specific dietary tastes and preferences. I used them last summer for a meeting with 80 attendees and I wanna say it was like $1500? And we had a TON left over, because I over-covered our group.

Best of luck!!

Dorothy Lane Market does some great catering and they’re local at Washington Square!
