GRG is a catering solution for small or large groups of people. Our chef-prepared food is from our renowned Gainesville restaurant Joe's Place, as well as other creative dishes. Call us when you’ve planned a working lunch, special luncheon, dinner or cocktail party and we'll deliver the food on time and with impeccable service. We provide disposable chafing pans, plates, napkins and utensils. If you need regular chafing pans, dishes, glasses and cutlery, please ask our catering coordinator to price this full service catering option for you. We also provide complete decoration and linens to create the theme you wish. This option will also entail service staff for set-up and breakdown of your event and incur additional fees.

The freshness, originality and presentation of our food, and the friendly, expert customer service provide by our chefs, staff and catering coordinators. Our menus offer the best of our restaurants and more-- with choices to please everybody. We make it easy to meet smaller budget needs, as well as meals for any size budget or group. We also offer  great vegetarian options.

We prefer 48 hours notice, but can do it within 24 hours subject to availability of ingredients. Extra charges will apply. For special orders we ask for 3 to 4 days notice. Orders can be placed with less advance notice, but quantities available may be limited.

Our catering prices are based on the cost of feeding groups of people (at least 8), setup and delivery, while phone-in orders tend to be last minute ideas for smaller groups, i.e. "Let's get Joe's Place for lunch today" and do not include delivery. Our catering attracts customers who have a need to provide a reliable, delicious food solution for groups of people.

You can contact our Catering coordinators at each restaurant by phone, email to initiate your order.

We have found that per-person pricing is an easier way for people to know exactly how much food they are getting. We also specify how much the portion size is for most items you order to ensure you are getting the right amount of food. If you need help placing an order, contact our catering coordinators are glad to help. We'll help you select the right amount of food for the type and size of meeting or occasion you're planning. However, we do provide platter prices for cocktail parties that want appetizers.
