Food Allergies

Messina’s Catering & Events prepares food in a commercial kitchen where common allergens — including but not limited to dairy, eggs, wheat, soy, tree nuts, peanuts, fish, and shellfish — are present. While we make every effort to accommodate dietary needs, cross-contamination is possible. We do not guarantee the absence of allergens in any of our products. If you or someone in your party has a severe food allergy, we recommend that you contact our team directly before placing an order. Messina’s is not responsible for allergic reactions resulting from food consumed that was ordered through our online system.

We take great pride in preparing each order with care and precision. Because our gourmet meals are made to order, we are unable to offer refunds once an order has been prepared.

If you need to cancel your order, please contact us at least 72 hours in advance of your scheduled pickup time. Orders canceled with at least 72 hours’ notice will receive a full refund. Cancellations made less than 72 hours before pickup may be subject to partial charges or be non-refundable, depending on the stage of preparation.
