How Much Does Italian Catering Cost in Las Vegas and Henderson? Real 2026 Tray Prices

Italian catering at Chef's Roma Kitchen is priced by the tray, not by the person. Half trays run $15 to $160 and full trays run $30 to $320. Pasta trays are $80 to $95 for a half tray serving 6 to 8 guests, and $160 to $190 for a full tray serving 12 to 14. Both Las Vegas valley kitchens cater the same 39-tray menu: Southern Highlands at 10420 S Decatur Blvd #100 and Henderson at 1550 W Horizon Ridge Pkwy Ste P.

This page lists the actual tray prices, the serving counts behind them, worked totals for 10, 25, 50, and 100 guests, and the confirmed delivery terms, so a Las Vegas or Henderson event can be budgeted before anyone picks up the phone.

Three serving-count notes from the catering menu itself. Meatballs with Marinara lists a half tray as serving 6 to 9. Shrimp Scampi, Fried Calamari, and Crostini with Prosciutto are listed only as half tray and full tray, with no serving count published. Bread & Butter and Caesar Salad each offer an add-garlic option at $5 for a half tray and $10 for a full tray, and Pappardelle Alfredo can add chicken at $24 half or $48 full.

How much catering do I need per person?

Plan roughly one full tray per 12 to 14 guests, per course. For 50 guests, four full pasta trays cover 48 to 56 pasta servings, and two full entree trays plus two full salads round out the meal. Using $190 pasta trays, $190 entree trays, and $120 Caesar trays, that order is $1,380 in food. The counts below come straight from the published tray sizes.

• 10 guests. One full pasta tray (serves 12 to 14) plus one full salad. Spaghetti Cacio e Pepe at $160 and Caesar Salad at $120 comes to $280.
• 25 guests. Two full pasta trays (24 to 28 servings), one full entree tray, one full salad. Two Penne Bolognese at $190 each, Chicken Parmigiana at $190, Caesar at $120 comes to $690.
• 50 guests. Four full pasta trays (48 to 56 servings), two full entree trays, two full salads. Four at $190, two at $190, two at $120 comes to $1,380.
• 100 guests. Eight full pasta trays (96 to 112 servings), four full entree trays, four full salads. Eight at $190, four at $190, four at $120 comes to $2,760.

These are planning examples, not quotes. They are food subtotals built from the tray prices above, they assume the higher-priced pasta and entree trays in most cases, and they do not include the 5% delivery fee, antipasti, sides, or desserts. Swapping in lower-priced trays such as Spaghetti Cacio e Pepe at $160 full lowers the total. The kitchen quotes the real number before anything is confirmed.

Delivery fees, minimums, and lead time

Catering orders need 24 hours of lead time. Delivery carries a $200 minimum, a 5% delivery fee, and a 10 mile radius from the kitchen. Pickup has no minimum at all. There is no minimum headcount and the maximum is 500 guests. A 50% deposit confirms the order. Cancellations are accepted up to 24 hours before the scheduled pickup or delivery. The 24 hour lead time and the 24 hour cancellation window are two separate policies.

The 10 mile delivery radius is measured from whichever kitchen takes the order. From 1550 W Horizon Ridge Pkwy Ste P that covers Henderson and the east valley. From 10420 S Decatur Blvd #100 it covers Southern Highlands and the southwest side of Las Vegas. Order from the kitchen nearer to where the food is going. Pickup is available at either address with no minimum spend.

Catering for weddings, offices, and parties in Henderson and Las Vegas

Chef's Roma Kitchen caters events of any size up to 500 guests, with no minimum headcount, so a six-person office lunch and a 300-person reception order from the same 39-tray menu. Delivery reaches addresses within 10 miles of either kitchen and pickup has no minimum. Events hosted inside the restaurant are a separate option: the Henderson dining room seats a full buyout of up to 100 guests.

Because catering is not tied to dine-in service hours, trays can go out earlier in the day than the dining rooms open, which is what makes daytime showers, office lunches, and school or team events workable. Put the ready time in the inquiry along with the date, headcount, and whether the order is pickup or delivery. Southern Highlands is (702) 888-3414 and Henderson is (702) 331-6300.

Across both locations Chef's Roma Kitchen holds 4.7 stars on Google over 449 reviews, with 304 of those at the Henderson restaurant and 145 at Southern Highlands. Executive Chef Ricardo Romo has cooked for more than 30 years, including Michael Mina at MGM Grand, STK at the Cosmopolitan, Beer Park at Paris Las Vegas, Mastro's Ocean Club at Aria and Crystals, and Toca Madera. More on the restaurant itself is in our Henderson guide.

Frequently asked questions

How much does Italian catering cost per person?

Chef's Roma Kitchen prices catering by the tray, but the tray sizes make the per-person math straightforward. A $190 full pasta tray serving 12 to 14 guests works out to roughly $14 to $16 per person for the pasta course. A $160 full tray of Spaghetti Cacio e Pepe is roughly $11 to $13 per person. Adding a $190 full entree tray across the same 12 to 14 guests brings two courses to roughly $27 to $32 per person.

What is the delivery minimum and fee?

Delivery requires a $200 minimum order and carries a 5% delivery fee, within a 10 mile radius of the kitchen filling the order. Pickup has no minimum, so a single $30 side tray or a $50 half tray of Tiramisu can be picked up at either the Southern Highlands or Henderson address. The $200 minimum applies to delivery only.

How far in advance do I need to order catering?

Catering orders need 24 hours of lead time at Chef's Roma Kitchen, in Las Vegas and in Henderson. A 50% deposit confirms the order. Larger orders benefit from more notice, but 24 hours is the stated requirement. Send the date, headcount, ready time, and whether the order is pickup or delivery, and the kitchen quotes the total before anything is confirmed.

Is there a headcount minimum or maximum?

There is no minimum headcount for catering at Chef's Roma Kitchen, and the maximum is 500 guests. A half tray serving 6 to 8 is the smallest practical unit, so a small office lunch is a normal order. The 500 guest figure is a headcount ceiling, not a dollar minimum. Delivery has a separate $200 order minimum that is unrelated to guest count.

Can I pick up catering instead of delivery?

Yes. Pickup is available at both Chef's Roma Kitchen locations, 10420 S Decatur Blvd #100 in Las Vegas and 1550 W Horizon Ridge Pkwy Ste P in Henderson, and pickup carries no minimum order and no delivery fee. The 24 hour lead time still applies. Pickup is the way to order below $200, since the $200 minimum and the 5% fee apply only to delivery.

What is the deposit and cancellation policy?

A 50% deposit confirms a catering order at Chef's Roma Kitchen. The cancellation window is 24 hours before the scheduled pickup or delivery time. That 24 hour cancellation window is a separate policy from the 24 hour ordering lead time, and the two are measured against different moments: one against when the order is placed, one against when the food is due.
