Irving, and especially the Las Colinas business corridor, is one of the densest office areas in the metroplex, which makes reliable corporate catering a real need. This guide covers our Irving coverage, what to order for an office crowd, how much per guest, cost, lead time, and the delivery logistics that make an office event run smoothly, with handmade momos anchoring a full Nepali and Indian spread.
Quick answer: catering an Irving office event
We serve Irving and Las Colinas as part of DFW. For an office crowd, order crowd-safe drop-off: steamed momos, a mild curry, rice, a veg dish, and dal. Plan 8 to 10 momos per person, budget the drop-off to buffet band ($10 to $25 per head), and book at least 48 to 72 hours ahead. Details below.
Delivery to Irving and Las Colinas
Irving's central, office-dense location makes weekday lunch delivery easy. Give us the building name, suite, and a contact phone so the driver can reach you, and a clear drop point (lobby or break room). For recurring team lunches, ask and we will set up a repeatable order.
Why momos work for office catering
Office crowds are mixed and cautious. Momos are familiar, mild by default, and handheld, so they suit everyone from the adventurous to the conservative eater. Pair them with a mild curry and strong vegetarian options and you cover the whole floor.
How much to order per guest
| Guests | Momos | Curry trays | Rice | Veg + dal |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 | ~100 | 1-2 | 1 tray | 2 |
| 25 | ~250 | 2-3 | 2 trays | 3 |
| 50 | ~500 | 3-4 | 3-4 trays | 4 |
Catered momos run 8 to 10 per person; one tray serves 4 to 6. Order about 10% over headcount.
Cost and lead time
Office drop-off runs about $10 to $25 per head, with buffet setup a bit higher. Book at least 48 to 72 hours ahead; for recurring lunches, a standing order is easiest to manage.
Office delivery logistics
- Aim for delivery 15 to 20 minutes before lunch. Time to set out the trays.
- Provide building, suite, and a contact phone. Office complexes need a clear drop point.
- Confirm any loading dock or visitor check-in rules. Tell us so the driver is prepared.
Irving catering scene
Irving's catering market is shaped by the Las Colinas business district (one of the largest concentrations of corporate HQs in DFW) and a large, established South Asian population around MacArthur Boulevard, Coppell border, and the Valley Ranch area. Both forces mean Irving has higher-than-average catering demand and a strong roster of dedicated South Asian operators.
Where Irving events happen + how catering adapts
| Area | Event type | Catering notes |
|---|---|---|
| Las Colinas / Urban Center | Corporate lunches, mid-size receptions | Heavy weekday business; lots of office-park drop-off catering. Many companies have established caterer relationships. |
| MacArthur Blvd corridor | South Asian community events, religious gatherings, family parties | Strong Nepali / Indian community presence; festival catering peaks here. |
| Valley Ranch | Residential family events, neighborhood gatherings | Suburban - standard residential delivery. |
| South Irving (Heritage / Old Irving) | Civic events, smaller family functions | Standard residential delivery; close to DFW Airport. |
| North Irving / Coppell border | Higher-income residential, large family events | Premium-tier catering common; weddings and milestone events. |
Why Irving has strong Nepali / Indian catering options
Three factors:
- Critical mass of South Asian residents. Especially around MacArthur Blvd and Valley Ranch - enough year-round demand for catering operations to specialize.
- Las Colinas corporate density. Office catering for major employers (NEC, Verizon, Kimberly-Clark, ExxonMobil neighbors) creates steady weekday volume.
- Festival weekend concentration. Irving + Coppell + Carrollton form a triangle of South Asian festival catering - Dashain, Tihar, Diwali, Eid all see major demand spikes.

| Mixed sabzi | 1 large tray |
| Basmati rice | 2 large trays |

Can you deliver to Las Colinas corporate offices?
Yes. Las Colinas is in standard delivery range for all DFW Nepali / Indian caterers. Confirm building access protocols (some require security check-in for the delivery team) when booking.
Do you cater for the MacArthur Blvd Hindu / Sikh / Jain temples in Irving?
Yes - religious-site catering is common. Confirm any specific dietary requirements (Jain meals exclude root vegetables; some temples require purely vegetarian operations) when booking.
How early should I book a Diwali or Dashain event in Irving?
Minimum 3-4 weeks for any event over 30 guests; 6+ weeks for events over 100. Festival weekends fill up faster in Irving than most DFW cities because of the community concentration.
Do you accommodate Jain dietary requirements?
Strict Jain meals exclude onion, garlic, and root vegetables. Many Nepali / Indian caterers can prepare Jain-friendly versions of certain dishes; confirm specific Jain requirements when booking and ask about kitchen contamination protocols.
Dietary planning
| Need | How it is handled |
|---|---|
| Vegetarian | veg/paneer momos, dal, sabzi, rice |
| Vegan | many dishes adapt; we flag dairy-free |
| Halal | confirm availability when ordering |
3 mistakes to avoid
- No clear drop point. Office buildings need a contact and suite to avoid delays.
- Too spicy for a mixed office. Default mild and put heat on the side.
- Forgetting vegetarian colleagues. Scale veg dishes to your real count.
