catering
In a survey of canteen users, the section "Service i kantinen" asks people to rate performance in the following areas:
Anretning
Skiltning
Buffeten er ren og ordentlig og bliver løbende fyldt op
Afrydning af tallerknerne og service i opvasken
Servietter, salt, peber og tandstikker
Kantinelokalet er indbydende og rent
Personalet er venligt og imødekommende
The quality of the actual food is covered elsewhere.
What exactly do you understand by "anretning" here?

presentation
In this context, I would definitely go with presentation<\i> - or perhaps arrangement<\i>, i.e. the way the food is being displayed.
See definition 2a in the DDO entry below.
