Eat & Smile Catering Catering Service

The original locavore caterer of the Washington, D.C. area since 2007, Eat & Smile provides delicious food and wonderful service for special events with an "a la carte" approach: you're never stuck with a pre-set package OR a pre-set menu! We work with you to make sure your unique event is just that - yours and unique! Whether you want a formal plated dinner or a relaxed social atmosphere of passed hors d'ouevres, a family style dinner, a buffet, or stations (or any other idea you have!), we can provide a locally sourced menu that will be both beautiful and delicious. Going local is something that's very important to us, not only because every dollar spent with a local farmer circulates within our community many times before leaving, unlike those spent at a grocery store, which leaves immediately, but also because the ingredient that was picked today tastes so much better than one that was picked a week ago from far away. Let our experienced staff of servers, bartenders, and chefs set up, serve, and clean up for you, leaving you free to enjoy your event without worry. Please contact us to request a quote for your event.
