Frequently asked questions

The way we work is simple: we are a catering company only. This means that we aren't a restaurant; we don't have a huge stock of food in house all of the time, we don't have chef's waiting to cook for anyone who walks through our doors. We order food and prepare it for events as they come and are requested. It's not like the way you can walk into a shop or restaurant and order whatever is on their menu because they have 10 items they always make and they have all of the necessary items in the fridge/pantry and can make it once you order. We have a very large menu (http://www.ata.catering/menu/) that we specialize in, and we are happy to make things that aren't on our menu for you or to adjust them to fit your palate or dietary restrictions. We are basically a company that will cook and serve the food that you like for your big day. Hopefully that made sense, but if you have any other questions let me know.
So the first step is picking out your day, time, event menu, and the type of service you want (buffet, family style, plated meal). Once we know that, our company provides a quote for what it will cost for us to cook and serve your custom meal to you and your family/group. 

We have people in our company which specialize in anything that has to do with events, as we are a full service caterer, or a one stop shop. We can handle flowers, photography, lighting, DJ services, food and most everything in between!

As for questions on pricing, the short answer is that it all dependsHow many entrees you decide to have changes pricing (chicken, beef, fish, or only one or two of those). What grade of meat changes the price (tri-tip and salmon is a much different price from Filet Mignon & Halibut). What type of service you want changes the price (drop off vs. buffet vs. sit down meal).

What exactly you need us to provide changes the pricing (some couples want us to provide tables, chairs, glassware, flatware, flowers, DJ services, etc.). And the length of your event changes price, due to staffing (who are paid by the hour).

We have worked with companies large and small from local wineries to NBA sports teams, and we have done tiny events for a boardroom meeting for 12 all the way up to large employee appreciations for 10,000. 

If you are looking for a caterer for an event make sure they have experience with your type of event and provide details about your location and wants to make sure they are comfortable providing what you need. Next, make sure that the food they produce is what you want. Lastly, research them and see if you can find reviews or references to make sure they do what they say, and try to find photos or videos of their events to see their day of presentation and quality of services.
