When most people think of catering, they think of the usual suspects — sandwich trays, boxed lunches, maybe a pasta buffet. But if you’re planning an event in Charleston, SC and want food that actually gets people excited, Mexican catering is in a category of its own. Bold flavors, generous portions, options for everyone, and a spread that turns eating into an experience — that’s exactly what Summerville Burrito Co brings to every event we cater.
What Is Mexican Catering?
Mexican catering goes well beyond tacos (though our taco bars are legendary). A full Tex-Mex and Mexican catering spread can include burritos, burrito bowls, quesadillas, nachos, rice and beans, fresh salsas, guacamole, and more. The beauty of Mexican food is its versatility — every dish can be built around your guests’ preferences and dietary needs. It’s hearty, flavorful, and universally crowd-pleasing in a way that few other cuisines can match.
Why Mexican Catering Works for Every Type of Event
One of the biggest advantages of Mexican catering is how naturally it fits almost any event format. Here’s why it works so well across the board:
Corporate Events and Office Lunches
A Mexican catering spread is one of the easiest ways to keep a team happy and energized. Employees build their own plates quickly, lines move fast, and nobody goes back to their desk feeling cheated. Whether it’s a weekly team lunch, a client appreciation event, or a company milestone celebration, Tex-Mex catering keeps morale high without breaking the budget.
Weddings and Private Parties
Mexican food at a wedding might sound unconventional — until your guests are raving about it for years. A taco bar or burrito bowl station creates a festive, social atmosphere that no plated chicken dinner can replicate. Guests mingle at the food station, build exactly what they want, and leave with full bellies and great memories. It’s one of the most memorable catering choices you can make for a Charleston wedding or private event.
Film and TV Production Catering
Film crews need food that’s fast, filling, and repeatable. Mexican catering delivers on all three counts. Our Tex-Mex spreads are designed to serve large groups efficiently, keep crew members fueled for long shooting days, and accommodate the wide range of dietary needs you’ll find on any production set. We’ve fed cast and crew on productions across the Charleston area and know exactly what it takes to keep a set running smoothly.
Community Events and Outdoor Gatherings
Mexican catering thrives in outdoor settings. A taco bar or burrito station set up under a tent at a community festival, a neighborhood block party, or a fundraiser event draws people in and keeps them coming back for seconds. The setup is flexible, the food travels well, and the whole vibe is relaxed and fun — exactly what outdoor events call for.
