About Us
The perfect solution for any occasion
How We Started
For Jorge and Luly Mena, welcoming guests with exceptional food and heartfelt hospitality has always been a way of life. What began as lively gatherings at home with family and friends soon became the inspiration for Mena Catering. Founded in 1981 and formally incorporated in 1982, they started the company with one simple goal: to bring people together through warm, memorable experiences and the joy of sharing great food. More than 45 years later, Mena Catering is one of Miami’s longest-running full-service catering companies. Over the decades, the company has built its reputation not only on exceptional cuisine, but also on genuine care for every guest and every event. Today, with their son Jorge as part of the team, the family and their seasoned staff continue to create memorable moments with the same warmth, passion, and personal attention that inspired the business from the very beginning.

What People are Saying
We were truly blessed in having Mena Catering for our wedding day. Every guest later on told how amazing the food and the service was. We had heard of how couples sometimes don't get to enjoy their wedding food or appetizers, but we are very happy that that was not our case. Their servers were so attentive in making sure that we and the wedding party enjoyed the appetizers as well. Amazing experience, no doubt.

Our wedding was a huge success thanks to Mena Catering. Mena Catering is amazing! Especially Lily de la Osa our wonderful event coordinator. Planning our wedding reception was a dream thanks to Lily, she was able to create the perfect menu and dining style for us. Her comprehensive knowledge and vast experience was a great help. Leading up to the wedding she made sure we had all our bases covered whether it was the rentals or the flowers. Our wedding went off without a hitch due in great part to Lily, we couldn't have done it without her. Everyone who attended our reception has not stopped gushing over how delicious the food was at the wedding. Our guests loved everything from the hors d'oeuvres, the food stations, and the late night snacks. Many of the guests have gone on to say that it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding. Mena's servers were awesome too, they made sure that we didn't miss out on any of the hors d'euvres and our glasses were always full. I highly recommend Mena Catering to everyone, they made sure our special day was perfect
My husband Matthew and I worked with Lily from Mena Catering for approximately one year to plan our wedding. I cannot emphasize how pleased we are with words. Lily was responsive throughout the entire process, catered to our requests, and was always transparent in what she needed from us. Additionally, she took our ideas and transformed them into culinary masterpieces! For example, we wanted a simple cuban style buffet. In return we received cuban sushi rolls, amazing Churasco, and a few mojitos to boot. Set up was flawless, food was amazing, and Lily even stepped in to give Matt and I a drink when things became a little... Stressful on the day of :) We wish we could do it all over again, and perhaps one day we will with Mena. Bottom line: excellent food, excellent company. Our guests all commented on the quality.
