The holiday season brings people together around the table. It’s a time for family traditions, familiar flavors, and sharing meals with the people who matter most.
But between planning, shopping, cooking, and entertaining, preparing a holiday meal can quickly become overwhelming.
At La Rosa Chicken & Grill, we’ve been helping families enjoy freshly prepared, flavorful meals since 1994. From Thanksgiving dinners to office celebrations and family gatherings, our holiday catering options make it easier to spend less time in the kitchen and more time enjoying the occasion.
Whether you’re hosting a traditional Thanksgiving dinner or planning a casual holiday get-together, La Rosa offers a variety of options to bring delicious food to your table.
Thanksgiving Dinner Without All the Preparation
A traditional Thanksgiving dinner is something many families look forward to all year. But preparing the turkey, making everyone’s favorite sides, and coordinating everything for the holiday table can take hours.
La Rosa’s Thanksgiving heat-and-serve packages offer a convenient alternative without giving up the familiar flavors of a holiday dinner.
At the center of each package is freshly sliced, boneless, skinless, oven-roasted turkey breast, accompanied by traditional Thanksgiving favorites, including homemade sides, cranberry sauce, turkey gravy, and corn muffins.
For smaller gatherings of four to five people, our 3-pound turkey breast package ($114.99) provides a complete holiday spread with six large side dishes, six corn muffins, cranberry sauce, and turkey gravy. It’s a convenient choice for an intimate Thanksgiving celebration without the work of preparing multiple dishes from scratch.
For larger family gatherings of eight to ten people, our 6-pound turkey breast package ($249.99) offers a generous selection, including three trays of your choice of homemade sides, 12 corn muffins, three large cranberry sauces, and three large turkey gravies. With plenty of variety for the table, it’s designed to make hosting a larger group a little easier.
Both packages bring together the traditional flavors of Thanksgiving, allowing you to focus less on preparing the meal and more on enjoying it with family and friends.
The turkey arrives fully cooked and oven-ready, with heating instructions included, making it easy to serve a holiday dinner at home.
More Than Turkey: Holiday Favorites for Every Table
Not every holiday gathering calls for a traditional turkey dinner.
For families who prefer chicken or want to offer additional choices, La Rosa’s catering menu includes several familiar favorites.
Our Rotisserie Chicken Package features four whole chickens, cut into serving portions, accompanied by three trays of signature sides and corn muffins. It’s a comforting option for family gatherings and a natural choice for those who have made our rotisserie chicken part of their family meals for years.
For those who enjoy the savory flavor of grilled chicken, our Grilled Chicken Package includes five pounds of marinated grilled chicken breasts, two trays of sides, and corn muffins.
Hosting a gathering with guests of different ages and preferences? Crispy chicken tenders and flavorful wings with dipping sauces are also popular additions, particularly for more casual celebrations.
With a variety of chicken options and signature sides, it’s easy to create a holiday meal that feels right for your family.
The Signature Sides That Make the Meal
For many families, the side dishes are just as important as the main course.
At La Rosa, our signature sides bring familiar, comforting flavors to the holiday table.
Traditional favorites like creamy mashed potatoes made with real potatoes, stuffing, macaroni and cheese, and creamed spinach can help create that familiar Thanksgiving feeling without spending hours in the kitchen.
For those looking to add variety, options such as mashed sweet potatoes, rice pilaf, garlic string beans, garlic broccoli, and tomato and cucumber salad offer something for different tastes.
Many of our signature sides are prepared from scratch in our dedicated commissary kitchen, using established recipes that help us maintain consistent quality across our restaurant locations.
Whether you’re planning a complete Thanksgiving dinner or simply adding a few favorite dishes to your family’s homemade meal, our sides make it easy to bring more variety to the table.
Planning Ahead for Thanksgiving 2026
Thanksgiving is one of those holidays when a little planning goes a long way, especially when you’re hosting family or friends.
For Thanksgiving 2026, turkey breast orders must be placed by November 19, and a 50% deposit is required when ordering.
Please note that La Rosa restaurants will be closed on Thanksgiving Day, November 26, so all holiday orders must be picked up in advance.
We recommend contacting your preferred La Rosa location to confirm package availability, side selections, ordering details, and pickup arrangements.
With the main course and sides taken care of, you can spend more time preparing your home, setting the table, and looking forward to the celebration.
Holiday Catering Beyond Thanksgiving
The celebrations don’t stop after Thanksgiving.
From December office parties and family get-togethers to holiday weekends and New Year’s celebrations, the season is filled with opportunities to gather around good food.
La Rosa’s everyday catering menu offers convenient options for occasions of all sizes, including rotisserie and grilled chicken packages, crispy chicken tenders and wings, sandwich and wrap trays, signature salads, and trays of freshly prepared sides.
Whether you’re hosting coworkers, entertaining extended family, or planning a casual gathering with friends, our catering options make it easier to serve a variety of dishes without spending hours preparing them yourself.
For larger catering orders, we recommend contacting your preferred location in advance to discuss menu selections and pickup arrangements.
Making Everyday Family Meals a Little Easier
Not every memorable holiday meal happens on a holiday.
Sometimes it’s a weeknight when family members are visiting, the house is full, and everyone is looking forward to sitting down together.
A freshly roasted La Rosa chicken, a few signature sides, and corn muffins can turn an ordinary evening into a satisfying family dinner without the preparation and cleanup.
It’s the same approach we’ve taken since 1994: offering flavorful, freshly prepared food that families can enjoy together.
More Time Together, Less Time in the Kitchen
The holidays are about more than what’s on the table. They’re about the conversations, traditions, and memories shared around it.
At La Rosa Chicken & Grill, we’re proud to have been part of family meals for more than three decades, serving generations of customers who continue to make our food part of their everyday lives and special occasions.
Whether you’re planning Thanksgiving dinner, a holiday party, or a simple meal with family, we’re here to help make gathering around the table a little easier.
From our kitchen to your family, we wish you a wonderful holiday season filled with good food and meaningful moments together.
