Party & event catering

Chinese food for the whole party.

Birthdays, showers, graduations, game days, church and school events: Tso drops off trays of General Tso, lo mein and crab rangoons, packed and ready to set out. You pick the 15-minute window, or pick it up yourself.

Quick math: $240 feeds 20 with a Family Meal. A large entrée tray feeds 8 to 10 from $84. A chafer set is $20 to keep it warm. Above 80 guests, the catering team quotes it.
