Wondering how much catering to order for an office lunch, team celebration or gathering at home? Start with your guest count, then consider whether you’re serving a full meal or a lighter spread.
At YEERO Greek Eatery in Midtown NYC, we can help you choose Greek catering options for your occasion. Here’s what to consider when planning proteins, pita, salads, sides and dips—so you can order with more confidence.
Start with Your Guest Count and Type of Meal
Plan on roughly half a pound of meat per adult for a main-event meal, a little less if there are heavy sides and dips. Build-your-own spreads stretch further than plated portions because people serve themselves to taste.
- 10–15 people: 1 large protein tray + 3 sides + dips
- 20–30 people: 2 protein trays + 4–5 sides + extra pita
- 50+ people: call us — we’ll build the spread with you
Match Catering Portions to Your Menu
The amount of food you need depends on what you’re serving. A full lunch calls for a different order than a selection of dips and sides served alongside other food.
Use the serving information for each catering item as your starting point. When combining several proteins or sides, plan them together around your total guest count rather than ordering every item for the entire group.
Share your headcount, preferred menu and type of event with our team. We can help you choose quantities and discuss whether you’d like to allow for second servings or leftovers.
Plan Your Pita, Salads, Sides and Dips
Pita always goes faster than you expect — order extra. Dips disappear too, especially tzatziki, so round up. A couple of fresh salads keep the table balanced and give lighter eaters an easy plate.
Plan Your Pita, Salads, Sides and Dips
Order a day ahead for big groups so we can stack enough fresh. Tell us about allergies and we’ll label everything. And set up the spread as a line — base, protein, toppings, dips — so a crowd moves through it fast.
Still not sure? Tell us the headcount and the vibe and we’ll do the math for you.
