They do have some seating and we didn't have any problem finding a table. We started with the Shrimp Salad sandwich and Chicken salad sandwich. Both were delicious. There were plenty of shrimp salad and chicken salad. The leftovers were still good. We left room for their beignets (special) they were pretty good - not as amazing as New Orleans but pretty good. In addition, we got a few bake goods to good and a mini ham and Swiss quiche. We definitely were not disappointed. This is definitely a hidden gem.

Canapes catered a memorial service for my mother in law in early June. The food and service were…read moreboth impeccable: Becky did most of the handling of our order via phone and email and was professional and very kind. The day of the event when we picked up our order everyone was friendly and efficient, and helped make sure we got all our food into our vehicle securely. It was plated carefully and very easy to set up at our event location, which was a bit out of town. As far as the food itself: It was amazing. The memorial had a slight tea party theme and Canapes' staff suggested ordering cocktail sandwiches along with the variety of pastries we wanted. It was three weeks ago and people are still mentioning how much they loved the sandwiches when they see my husband and I. The turkey on carrot muffins was a particular favorite. I lost track of the number of people who asked where we'd gotten the food catered. We'll definitely use Canapes for catering we need in the future.

You feel like you're in such a welcoming and relaxing environment, and Chris is generous with drinks to make people feel at home. Her style is really approachable, and she tries hard to offer tips that will stay with you when you're cooking at home. I've learned so much from her: I use old T-shirts to dry my meat, I never salt my potatoes before roasting them, I crank up the heat real high to roast chicken, and I make my pizza outside on the grill. She has helped me expand my food horizons and feel comfortable experimenting in the kitchen. She's also an all-around amazing individual who has been around DC a long time and has good stories to tell. In short, it's a great activity for a night out with friends or even as a couple, and she offers useful recipes that will make you more comfortable in the kitchen to boot.
