If you're planning a paella night in Kendall, here's the short version: we cook paella catering live and on-site for Kendall events, and we plan the setup around how the neighborhood actually works.
Suburban backyards and clubhouse parties dominate — family-sized, usually outdoors, and relaxed.
This is what we're known for. A pan the size of a tabletop, set up wherever your guests can watch — rice going golden, clams opening, shrimp and octopus arranged on top right before service. Our biggest pans feed 80 to 120 people from a single cook, which is why paella works so well for weddings, company parties, and the kind of family gathering where the headcount keeps climbing.
We bring our own burners and propane and cook in the open. Seafood is the crowd favorite, but the mixed paella with chicken and chorizo and a clean vegetarian version both hold their own. Tell us the crowd and we'll tell you the pan.
No two Kendall events are the same, so we quote yours to the guest count, menu and service style — and there's no charge to ask. Send the details and we'll come back with a custom menu, usually the same day.
For live stations we arrive ahead of service to set up, cook through your window, then break down and pack out. Suburban backyards and clubhouse parties dominate — family-sized, usually outdoors, and relaxed. Two to three weeks' notice is ideal for Kendall weekends; drop-off can often go in 48–72 hours.
Kendall hosts book paella catering with us year-round. A live paella pan is the heart of what we do — saffron rice cooked over open flame in a pan wide enough to feed a hundred-plus guests from one cook. We're a Miami-Dade caterer and Kendall is squarely inside our service area, so the truck, the burners and the staffing are all planned around your specific venue.
You can pick the seafood paella with shrimp, clams, mussels and calamari, a mixed meat-and-seafood pan, or an all-vegetable version, and for big crowds we run two pans side by side. If your event sits near the edge of Kendall, we also regularly cover Pinecrest, Palmetto Bay, South Miami and Westchester, so a venue just over the line is no obstacle.
It anchors weddings, milestone birthdays, backyard parties and corporate events where the cooking itself becomes the entertainment. Do you really cater paella in Kendall? Yes — it's a regular part of our route; send your date and headcount and we'll confirm availability. We tailor the menu to the Kendall crowd, build around a theme or color story when you have one, and can add a dessert display or rentals like tables and linens so the whole table comes together.
Booking paella in Kendall is simple: send your date, headcount and venue through the contact form or WhatsApp 786-991-8740, and we'll come back with a menu and quote — usually the same day. For Kendall weekends, two to three weeks' notice locks the date; tighter timelines often work for drop-off.
Why cook on-site in Kendall instead of delivering trays? Because the food is served at its peak and the cooking becomes part of the entertainment. Your Kendall guests gather around the pan, the chef talks them through it, and everything is plated fresh — something a reheated tray simply can't match.
Tell us your date, headcount and city — we'll send a custom menu and quote, usually the same day.
Yes — Kendall is part of our regular Miami-Dade service area. Suburban backyards and clubhouse parties dominate — family-sized, usually outdoors, and relaxed. Send us your date and headcount and we'll confirm availability and a setup that fits the spot.
We quote every Kendall event individually, based on your guest count, menu and service style. There's no charge to ask — send your details and we'll put a custom quote in writing before you commit to anything.
For paella nights, weddings, and anything with a live station, two to three weeks gives us the best shot at your date — Miami weekends fill up fast, especially November through April. Drop-off and office lunches we can often turn around in 48 to 72 hours. If your date is tight, message us anyway; we keep a short waitlist and sometimes shuffle things.
Yes. Gluten-free, vegetarian, vegan, pescatarian, no-pork, nut allergies — tell us when you book and we build it into the menu instead of scrambling day-of. The pasta station and grazing tables are easy to adapt; the seafood paella we'll flag clearly for shellfish allergies.
Send a few details and Chef Reinaldo's team will put together a custom menu — usually the same day. No deposit to get a quote.
