We are more than happy to provide complimentary durable black plastic plates as well as cutlery, paper napkins, and wet naps.
How many servers will I need?
This depends on the size of your event and the amount of food ordered. As a rule of thumb, we recommend 1 server per 30 guests.
What can I expect of the servers at my event?
For your event you will be assigned a Captain who will be your point of contact throughout the day.

We charge $150 per captain, $125 per server and $100 per cook for a 5-hour block. Anything above 5 hours will be charged at $30 per captain/hr, $25 per server/hr and $20 per cook/hr. There is also an 15% on-site fee added to all orders to cover equipment, fuel, insurance, permits and other miscellaneous charges.
Is gratuity automatically added to the bill?
We do not add gratuity to your bill as we believe this is at the discretion of our guests based on the level of service received. Our team will work hard to ensure that your event goes smoothly and that everything is to your satisfaction. Our staff is appreciative of any gratuity that you should choose to provide.
How early do you arrive to set-up?
We typically need 1 hour to set up for full service events and 1 hour and 30 minutes for events using The Smoke Monster. If you need us to arrive earlier for any reason please notify the Catering Coordinator to discuss options.
Will Gus’s tray-pass appetizers?
Yes, we can tray pass most of our appetizers.
What if I have food left over?

How long do I have until my final head count is needed?
We ask that you provide us with your final head count within 5 days of your event.
Does Gus’s require a deposit?
We will require a signature and 50% deposit for any order above $750.
