You’re not just feeding people—you’re creating the moment they’ll talk about for years. When your guests taste our handmade pasta, signature veal chop, and fresh seafood, prepared with the same attention we’ve given Newton diners since 2004, they understand why you chose something special.
Every dish arrives exactly as it should: hot, fresh, and made to order. No steam tables, no reheated leftovers, no cutting corners. Your event deserves the same quality that earned us our award-winning reputation.
Whether it’s a corporate lunch that impresses your biggest client or a family celebration where three generations gather around authentic Italian flavors, we handle the details so you can enjoy the moments that matter.
Anna Mountzuris founded Tartufo on a simple principle: authentic Abruzzese cuisine prepared with organic meats, fresh seafood, and ingredients that honor Italian tradition. Since 2004, we’ve served Newton-area families and businesses who understand the difference between good food and exceptional food.
Our catering brings the same standards that earned our 4.5-star restaurant rating directly to your Westford event. We’ve coordinated everything from intimate birthday dinners to corporate celebrations for 55 people, always with the same attention to quality and service.
When you work with us, you’re working with a team that’s been perfecting Italian catering for over two decades. We know what works, what doesn’t, and how to make your event exactly what you envisioned.
First, we listen. Tell us about your event, your guests, and what you’re hoping to achieve. We’ll recommend menu options that fit your vision and budget, explaining exactly what each dish includes and how it’s prepared.
Next, we plan. Our team coordinates timing, setup, and logistics so everything arrives when it should. We handle the details—from dietary accommodations to serving coordination—while keeping you informed every step of the way.
Finally, we deliver. Your food arrives fresh and ready, prepared to order just hours before your event. Our staff can handle setup and service, or we can provide everything you need for seamless self-service. Either way, you’ll have authentic Italian cuisine that tastes like it just left our kitchen.

Your catering includes our signature dishes: handmade pasta, grilled calamari, fresh seafood, and our famous veal chop, all prepared with the organic ingredients and traditional techniques that define authentic Abruzzese cooking. We accommodate groups from intimate gatherings to celebrations of 55 people.
Westford businesses particularly appreciate our corporate catering expertise. We understand the importance of impressing clients and supporting team morale with food that actually delivers on its promise. Our made-to-order approach means your lunch meeting or company celebration gets the same quality as our restaurant service.
For family events and celebrations, we bring warmth and authenticity that turns any gathering into something special. Our menu accommodates dietary preferences while maintaining the traditional flavors that make Italian cuisine memorable. From wedding festivities to milestone birthdays, we’ve learned how to make food the highlight, not just the necessity.
We recommend booking at least two weeks ahead for most events, though we can often accommodate shorter notice depending on our schedule and your event size. Larger events or those during busy seasons like holidays and wedding season benefit from earlier booking.
The advantage of advance planning isn’t just availability—it gives us time to discuss menu details, coordinate logistics, and ensure everything aligns with your vision. We’ve found that the best events happen when we have time to plan properly rather than rushing to meet a deadline.
For recurring corporate catering or regular events, we can establish a standing arrangement that guarantees availability and streamlines the ordering process for future occasions.
Full-service means we handle everything from menu planning to cleanup. This includes coordinating with your venue, managing setup and breakdown, providing serving staff if needed, and ensuring food arrives at the proper temperature and presentation.
We bring all necessary serving equipment, linens, and utensils. Our staff can manage buffet-style service or plated meals, depending on your preference and event style. We also coordinate timing with other vendors and handle any last-minute adjustments.
The goal is simple: you focus on your guests and your event, while we ensure the food service runs seamlessly in the background. Most clients tell us they barely noticed our team working—which is exactly how professional catering should feel.
Absolutely. We regularly accommodate gluten-free, vegetarian, and other dietary needs while maintaining authentic Italian flavors. Our chefs understand how to modify traditional recipes without compromising taste or presentation.
For gluten-free guests, we offer pasta alternatives and ensure cross-contamination prevention. Vegetarian options go beyond basic salads—we create satisfying dishes using fresh vegetables, quality cheeses, and traditional Italian preparation methods that vegetarians genuinely enjoy.
We ask about dietary needs during planning so we can design a menu that works for everyone. The key is communication: tell us what restrictions we’re working with, and we’ll create options that feel inclusive rather than like afterthoughts.
We’re an established restaurant first, caterer second. That means your event gets the same quality, techniques, and attention that earned our award-winning reputation over 20 years in Newton. Most catering companies prepare food in bulk kitchens—we prepare your order in our restaurant kitchen using the same standards as our dining room service.
Our Abruzzese heritage isn’t just marketing—it’s Anna Mountzuris’s family tradition, reflected in recipes and techniques passed down through generations. You taste the difference between authentic Italian cooking and generic “Italian-style” catering.
We also understand both intimate family gatherings and corporate events. Whether you need elegant plated service for a client dinner or efficient buffet setup for a company meeting, we adapt our approach while maintaining food quality that actually impresses your guests.
We prepare everything to order rather than holding food in warming trays for hours. This means your event gets food that’s been cooked within hours of service, not days ahead and reheated. Our kitchen timing ensures dishes arrive at proper temperature and presentation.
For larger events, we coordinate multiple preparation cycles so nothing sits too long before service. Our team has systems for maintaining quality across different dish types—from delicate seafood to hearty pasta dishes—ensuring consistency regardless of group size.
We also bring backup equipment and have contingency plans for common catering challenges. After two decades of events, we’ve learned to anticipate potential issues and have solutions ready before problems affect your guests’ experience.
Our signature dishes translate beautifully to catering: the grilled calamari, veal chop, and homemade pasta consistently receive the best feedback from events. These showcase authentic Abruzzese techniques while appealing to diverse tastes.
For corporate events, our pasta selections and fresh seafood dishes work well for professional settings—impressive enough for client meetings but practical for office environments. The lobster ravioli and risotto are particular favorites for business lunches.
Family celebrations often feature our traditional meat and seafood combinations alongside lighter options like our fresh salads and vegetable dishes. We’ve learned that successful catering menus balance familiar comfort with authentic flavors that give guests something memorable to discuss.
