2024 Operational updates & changes
Please Read Our Changes For 2024
As most of us in the restaurant industry, catering industry and other sectors of the Food & Beverage industry continue to maneuver as best as we can during these uncertain times, we are continually having to shift and make operational changes as we see fit in order to be able to both sustain our businesses, and still serve our customers and clients with quality food and service they have come to expect.
In 2022 we made the following operational changes indefinitely. These changes still remain in effect as of 2024.
- We now only offer party trays catering (drop-off). We no longer provide any on-site special event catering, nor do we provide any breakfast catering or brunch catering.
- We will not be providing the Private Chef Dining Experience for 2024.
- We have moved to a seasonal operation instead of yearlong operations. We are only available during the Spring Season and Fall Season.
- We will be closed for summer break (June to August) and we will be closed for holiday/winter break (December to late February). During summer and winter break times we will not be available by phone, we will only be available via email at nolagirlfood@gmail.com or the "Contact Us" form at the bottom of website.
- We are only offering party trays catering (drop-off). The party trays menu is designed for and suggested for smaller group gatherings of up to 50 people. The food delivery minimum is $500 (before taxes and service & delivery).
- We are no longer be able to provide refunds if you cancel your order, but you may be able to receive a credit for future catering services at a later date based on date availability. For more details see cancellation policy on the Party Trays Catering Menu.
- Also, as we continue to deal with rising food costs and lack of availability of certain food items at various times, the price of some menu items may increase and/or some menu items may be removed either temporarily or indefinitely. We try the keep the menu updated and as current as possible.
