If you're planning a paella night in North Miami, here's the short version: we cook paella catering live and on-site for North Miami events, and we plan the setup around how the neighborhood actually works.
A mix of Haitian, Latin, and university crowds keeps the menus diverse around here.
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 North Miami 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. A mix of Haitian, Latin, and university crowds keeps the menus diverse around here. Two to three weeks' notice is ideal for North Miami weekends; drop-off can often go in 48–72 hours.
Planning paella catering in North Miami? A few things make it easy. 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 North Miami 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 North Miami, we also regularly cover North Miami Beach, Miami Gardens, Aventura and Opa-locka, 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. How much notice do you need for paella in North Miami? Two to three weeks is best for North Miami weekends, and drop-off can often go on shorter notice. We tailor the menu to the North Miami 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 North Miami 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 North Miami weekends, two to three weeks' notice locks the date; tighter timelines often work for drop-off.
Every North Miami booking includes the chef, the crew, the equipment, setup and clean-up. We scale the portions to your final North Miami headcount so there's plenty without waste, handle vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and allergy needs in the kitchen, and pack out at the end so your venue is left spotless.

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.
