Who We Are
Our Story
Born from a passion for fire, flavor, and bringing people together — On The Grill Catering has been Texas's trusted catering partner for over 20 years.
Our Journey
From the Grill to Your Table
On The Grill Catering was founded by Mario Torres with one simple belief: great food has the power to bring people together. What started as a passion for grilling and cooking for family and friends quickly grew into one of the Rio Grande Valley's most trusted catering companies.
With over 20 years of experience and more than 2,500 events served, we've had the honor of being part of weddings, quinceañeras, corporate milestones, and celebrations of every kind. Every event we cater is treated with the same care and dedication as if it were our own.
We believe in using quality ingredients, bold flavors, and professional execution — from the first consultation to the final plate. When you hire On The Grill Catering, you're not just hiring a caterer. You're bringing in a team that genuinely cares about making your event unforgettable.
