34 Best Caterers in Washington

“Really loved my experience at Jaliyaa Coffee. The vibe is super welcoming and you can tell a lot of care goes into what they do. The drinks are unique and flavorful, and everything feels really intentional and high quality. Definitely a spot I’d come back to.“

“We visit whenever we’re in DC for work. The food is always terrific. Paul from Austria was our server last weekend… he had such joy and positive energy ☀️ We’ll be back soon!“

“The service was amazing and Diana was my waitress she was so nice“

“😍I have to take a moment to give B. Lin Catering (DC) their flowers—because WOW. They catered my daughter’s Sweet 16, and I’m honestly still thinking about the food. I can’t decide who loved it more: the teenage girls (with their very sophisticated palates, thank you very much 😄) or my husband. The birthday girl felt like a true princess, the sleepover was a hit, and the food? Gone. Quickly. The flavor is indescribable. The chipotle chicken was incredibly tender, and the chimichurri skirt steak literally melted in your mouth. Multiple girls said, unprompted, “This is way better and much more flavorful than Chipotle.” When teenagers agree on something, you know it’s real. It should honestly be a crime to make meat, chips, guac, and corn salsa taste that good. Shout-out to the delivery driver too—early, professional, friendly, and even gave helpful tips on how to set everything up. Those little touches make a huge difference when you’re hosting a house full of teenagers. If you’re in DC and need catering for a birthday, family event, or just because you want your guests to talk about the food long after it’s gone—B. Lin Catering is it. We’ll definitely be ordering again. Highly, highly recommend.“

“Zoe's Vegan Delight is sooooo good, and provides kind and fast service. she also always has yummy pastries to take with your savory items.“

“The Mardi Gras bento box was such a treat! Thank you!“

“We love Washington DC so my wife and I wanted some pizza. We were staying at the Embassy suites in NW so I googled pizza that was close by. Pizzoli‘s pizzeria came up. It looked good so we took an Uber there and the pizza was excellent. We ordered a simple pepperoni pizza and my wife and I both thoroughly enjoyed it. Made from scratch good. We were a little bit surprised in that it was a smaller establishment as we thought we were going to a place that had lots of tables, etc. This place has one inside table and five or six countertops to eat at and then they have several tables outside but as noted, the food was fantastic. Would certainly recommended, and we will be back home future visits.“

“Great Spot! You’ll really like it!“

“Excellent food, smooth service, great organization. Wedding (our daughter's) guests raved -- went out of their way to praise the operation. Even short lines at the bar! Well-staffed, quick flipping of the room (ceremony to dinner), low-profile and efficient. Impressive -- and I've been to lots of weddings! Highly recommended.“

“Occasions Caterers has a fabulous staff and the food is always wonderful. I have never been disappointed. The food is delicious and well presented.“

“During the consultation, food selection, and presentation, Palette Dome Cuisine consistently exceeded expectations. Even for a group not accustomed to healthful eating, PDC offered fresh, all-natural choices that were a total hit. Thanks to them, I received countless compliments from family and friends on the fantastic food. PDC truly knows how to craft a memorable dining experience, and I'll be using their services exclusively in the future.“

“We used Eat & Smile for our wedding two years ago (sorry for the REALLY late post!!) They were absolutely amazing. My wedding planner had faded out of the picture and they filled in all the holes - from ordering glasses to helping move the piano! The food was wonderful and the staff was great. I wanted to use a local small business and they were right in my neighborhood. Could not have made a better selection!“

“Great service, enjoyed very much!“

“Shout out to Big Moe's Catering!! They catered our work luncheon, with all of the Covid protocols that made it much easier for us. Each staff member had individual meals with a dessert. The turkey wings, fried chicken, salmon, pork chops, masked potato's, greens, string beans, and mac n cheese were delicious. Every one had an empty container. The food was delivered on time and the communication was excellent. I would order from them again.“

“We were thrilled to have Q Caterers provide food and decor for our business celebration. They were diligent, prompt, and professional throughout the planning and execution. The food was exceptional, and we received numerous compliments from our guests. Best of all, Carlos was personally involved in making sure that everything from our menu choices, to the decor, and the service that evening was taken care of perfectly. All our guests felt like V.I.Ps, and, as hosts, we were able to enjoy the event ourselves too, since we were in such capable hands. We highly recommend Q Caterers for all your special event needs; you will not be disappointed.“

“I gave a presentation at the J.P CHase Building and PinkE's Eats catered for 30 people! The amount of food looked like enough for at least 50! What can I say?? EVERYTHiNG was fabulous!! Shrimp and creamy grits like I have never tasted, fried chicken, scrambled eggs with a flare, delicious bacon cooked perfectly, waffles with brown maple sugar crunch inside them-no syrup REALLY needed, greens-yum, mac & cheese the BEST, luscious salad and other delectables I can't even remember. I cannot wait for them to open the restaurant in Woodley Park this year. For now I plan to have lunches at my office catered by them. Great young brother and sister chefs/owners. o proud of them.
