So not only does this place have amazing food and a ton of gluten free/vegetarian options but there service is incredible! That's all you really need to know but if you want a real story, buckle up...

Last month I had planned a twenty person suprise birthday party for my brother. We were not able to have a 30th party for him so we planned to make his 31st extra special. The venue (that we al love and still do!) called me 3 hours before the party was supposed to start to tell me they had a Covid outbreak and needed to cancel to keep us all safe and healthy. We of cause wouldn't be charged for the party being canceled but how was I going to host 20 people with less than 3 hours notice AND keep the change of plans a suprise? Alhough I appreciate the restaurants actions it did leave me in an insane time crunch.

Masa Grande was my immediate thought for delicious, allergy friendly food, that everyone loves and they cater. Miraculously the team member who took my panicked phone call walked me through what to order and then contacted her manager to confirm the details. They made it happen! I ordered hard and soft shell tacos, chips with questions and guacamole, salad, and sides of black beans.

They were able to get all the food made and loaded into my car in 2.5 hours! This gave me enough time to grab party supplies, booze, dessert, and get to my moms house to set up before guest and the birthday boy arrived.

The party was a huge success 🙌 My brother was shocked! The guests were well fed and happy. Masa Grande saved the day. I cannot thank them or recommend them enough.

In a time of social disconnection, difficulty, and hardship, Masa Grande was instrumental in safetly bring my family together.
