Inexpensive caterers??

Anyone know of any good caterers for $15-20 per person or less? Probably not barbq or fajitas, but other than that, I'm pretty open. We are having a buffet, but I need someone that will show up to heat it, serve it, and help clean up, not just drop it off. Any recommendations would be much appreciated. Thanks!

    I cannot give you any specific recommendations but I would say that Italian is a good bet. I would look for a small independent owned restaurant.

    I got a quote from Carino's Italian Restaurant and they are very reasonable.  They will do all of the set up, serving and clean up.  My quote was about $15.00 pp and included appetizers, salad, 2 kinds of pasta, bread, tea, etc.  Call Megan Bockhorn at 281-686-1983.

    If I remember correctly from the Bridal Extravaganza, Cafe Express actually has really reasonable prices especially on their pasta entrees. I would suggest them, since they are a recognized chain and prolly have a larger staff.

    Zios Italian Kitchen has great prices. Ours is coming to $7 pp and it comes with delivery, setup, serving, & cleanup. It includes 2 entrees, salad, bread, tea, and all utensils and plates. 
    They also said that any leftovers will be boxed up for us and left there so we can take it home. I still have to find out if the venue will let us store it in the fridge so it doesnt go bad.

    We did tasting with both, and they were fantastic! They are definitely within your budget. Cityview can do ANY kind of food. Red Fish is more seafood so we went with that bc we are doing Carrabbas for our rehearsal dinner. Hope this helps!

    Try Jim Benton Of Houston LLC.  www.jimbentonhouston.com or 713-802-2860.  He did my friend's wedding for $19 but that was sit plated.  Ask what a buffet would be.  He is VERY flexible.
