    The toasted marshmallow expresso martini alone could have me coming back for years. Don’t let them confuse you different liquors (vodka, courvoisier, tequila), all of which are up charges. Just order it as normal, made with cognac. It is amazing. That damn drink will change your life. I’m usually not impressed with fried chicken, but theirs is really deserving of praise. A little spicy, not too salty…perfect. Only complaint? I hate when restaurants (I’m not picking on K+K only!) make you buy sides at a premium. Man, just include a side with a meal. Don’t make me buy a family-sized mashed potatoes for $11 when I’m already paying 20 bucks for two pieces of fried chicken. Right? That’s crazy. All in all, really great place. And awesome to go to before a show next door at the Majestic (get reservations on show nights!).

    We had a great dinner here on Saturday. We were sat at the bar and Octavius the bartender took care of us. He was so personable and funny and made our dinner a blast. I got the club and my spouse had the burger, both were so delicious. We loved our evening here.
