Don’t know why I didn’t think of sushi — that’s a great idea. And someone else makes it — yay!

How about another option for kids who can't/don't eat fish?

Sliders or Chicken nuggets? Pizza Rolls?

I could offer sliders with the beef tenderloin. I’m trying to not have kiddie food.

Understood but you mentioned CFA nuggets in the OP.

Offer an (optional) sauce for the beef tenderloin. That will seem elegant (to them

So instead of going to a restaurant, like tradition, youre dining room is the restaurant and youll have seating, dishes, and space for 20 teens in your house?

Are you on a budget? Asking parents to contribute?

8d go with catering - no shopping, no prep, they're used to serving/prepping for a crowd, easy for you, and it's not homemade (sorry. But not everyone will like you're cooking).

You could add a nice couscous veggie salad (this is a favorite): https://www.deliaonline.com/recipes/collections/delias-summer-collection/roasted-vegetable-couscous-salad-with-harissa-style-dressing

And some kind of roasted veg: examples- sweet potatoes fries/chunks, Brussels sprouts, tri colored carrots, baked asparagus with lemon and parmesan, etc

I really like this.

steak, sushi tray, and miso soup.

Sushi?

Is this just a pre-party or are they are having dinner at your home? We are having a very informal light snacks with pictures pre-party then the kids are going out to dinner.

Previous pre events she's been to have ranged from chick-fil-A trays to dining room sit down dinners. I don't have space for formal seating at one table but could have multiple seating areas. I'm looking for more of meal rather than just appetizers or snacks (although probably need a couple of those too). Ideas for something nice? (DD would love steak included.)
