You know that moment when your guests stop mid-conversation because the food is that good. That’s what happens when you choose catering that goes beyond the typical corporate lunch spread.
Your colleagues aren’t just fed—they’re transported to the Italian coast with every bite of our signature dishes. Our Abruzzese specialties, from handmade pasta to fresh seafood, create the kind of dining experience that turns ordinary meetings into memorable occasions.
When you’re planning an event in Arlington, you’re not just feeding people. You’re creating an atmosphere where business gets done, relationships strengthen, and your reputation as someone who knows quality gets solidified.
Since 2004, we’ve been the Italian restaurant that Arlington-area businesses and families trust when the occasion matters. Not because we’re the loudest or the flashiest, but because we consistently deliver what we promise.
Our founder Anna Mountzuris built Tartufo around a simple concept: authentic Italian tradition using organic meats, fresh seafood, and ingredients that honor the Abruzzo region’s coastal heritage. When you choose our catering, you’re working with a team that understands the difference between feeding people and creating an experience.
Arlington’s proximity to our Newton location means you get the same award-winning quality that has earned us recognition throughout the greater Boston area, delivered with the reliability your event demands.
Planning your catered event starts with a conversation about what you actually need. Not what we want to sell you, but what makes sense for your guests, your budget, and your timeline.
We walk through your menu options, from individual boxed lunches for corporate meetings to full multi-course experiences for special celebrations. Every dish is made to order using the same fresh ingredients and techniques that have earned our restaurant its reputation.
Our team coordinates the logistics—delivery timing, setup requirements, dietary accommodations—so you can focus on your event instead of wondering if the food will show up on time. We handle the details because that’s what allows you to look like the hero who made it all happen effortlessly.

Your catering package includes everything needed to serve authentic Italian cuisine that matches our restaurant quality. Made-to-order dishes using organic meats, fresh seafood, and handmade pasta that reflects our Abruzzese heritage.
We accommodate dietary restrictions with the same attention to flavor and presentation as our regular menu items. Gluten-free options, vegetarian selections, and allergy protocols that don’t compromise on taste or visual appeal.
Arlington businesses particularly appreciate our corporate catering packages, designed around the reality of office schedules and meeting logistics. Individual portions for easy serving, professional presentation that impresses clients, and timing that works with your agenda rather than forcing you to work around ours.
For most catering orders in Arlington, we recommend placing your order at least 48 hours in advance. This gives us time to prepare your food fresh and coordinate delivery logistics properly.
However, we understand that business needs don’t always allow for perfect planning. If you have a last-minute requirement, call us directly. We often can accommodate same-day or next-day orders depending on the size of your event and our current schedule.
Larger events with custom menu requirements or special dietary accommodations work best when planned a week ahead. This allows time for menu consultation and ensures we have all the specialty ingredients your event requires.
Every catering package includes made-to-order Italian dishes prepared with the same quality standards as our restaurant service. You get authentic Abruzzese cuisine featuring organic meats, fresh seafood, and handmade pasta.
We provide appropriate serving utensils, plates, napkins, and setup coordination. For corporate events, we offer individual packaging options that work well for business meetings and office gatherings.
Custom menu creation is available for larger events. We’ll work with you to design a menu that fits your guest preferences, dietary requirements, and budget. This includes wine pairings from Italian regions if you’re hosting an event where alcohol service is appropriate.
Yes, we maintain strict allergy protocols and can prepare most of our menu items gluten-free when needed. Our kitchen team is experienced in handling various dietary requirements without compromising flavor or presentation.
We regularly accommodate vegetarian, vegan, dairy-free, and other specific dietary needs. The key is discussing these requirements when you place your order so we can plan accordingly and avoid cross-contamination issues.
For events with multiple dietary restrictions, we often recommend a consultation to review menu options. This ensures everyone at your event has delicious food choices rather than settling for bland alternatives that treat dietary needs as an afterthought.
We deliver throughout Arlington and the surrounding communities, including Medford, Somerville, Cambridge, and other nearby areas. Our Newton location allows us to serve the greater Boston region efficiently.
Delivery timing depends on your location and the size of your order. Most Arlington deliveries can be scheduled within a two-hour window that works with your event timeline.
For locations outside our standard delivery area, we can often arrange service for larger orders. The key is discussing your location when you place your order so we can confirm delivery logistics and any additional coordination required.
Our catering pricing is based on the menu items you select and the number of guests you’re serving. We provide detailed pricing during the consultation process so you know exactly what your event will cost.
Corporate lunch packages start at a different price point than full dinner service, and we can work within various budget ranges. The goal is finding menu options that deliver the quality experience you want at a price that makes sense for your event.
We don’t surprise you with hidden fees or last-minute charges. Delivery, basic setup, and standard serving materials are included in your quoted price. Any additional services like extended setup or special equipment are discussed upfront.
We cater both corporate events and social celebrations throughout Arlington. Our experience includes business meetings, product launches, holiday parties, family celebrations, and private dining events.
Corporate clients appreciate our understanding of business timing and professional presentation requirements. We know how to deliver and set up efficiently without disrupting your workplace or meeting schedule.
Social events allow us to showcase our full range of authentic Italian specialties. Whether you’re planning a family celebration, anniversary party, or other personal milestone, we create custom menus that reflect the significance of your occasion while honoring traditional Italian hospitality.
