Paella To Go!

Estéban Restaurant makes hosting a graduation party, bachelor or bachelorette party, rehearsal dinner and a summer soireée a breeze with Paella to Go! Served in an authentic 22-inch paella pan, that serves up to 15 people, we offer three savory choices: Paella Del Mar with harvest vegetables, prawns, clams and mussels (GF); Chicken Paella with harvest vegetables, chicken and sausage (GF); Harvest Paella with Monterey Farm Arti Hearts and harvest vegetables (GF/VG).
