Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Kitchen + Kocktails by Kevin Kelley in DC is a vibrant spot known for its "amazing food" and lively atmosphere. Guests rave about dishes like shrimp & grits and chicken & waffles. While the service can be slow, the staff is generally attentive and friendly. The music creates a festive vibe, though it can be "very loud" for conversations. Dining here is on the pricier side, with some noting the a la carte pricing. Overall, it's a great place for "good vibes" and a memorable experience.

    It was freezing in the basement where we sat the. They sat 5 of us at one small table then they sat our waiter a large party than us which was impossible for her she literally had no time to serve us we waited 40 mins for her to grab our food order then was told our tower was 140 then when asked about tequila instead said the price be around the same and came out to 180 which is fine but not what was told to us just overall could’ve been better for the first time

    I have heard mixed reviews but my experience was excellent. Food was delicious, hot, and presented nicely. My bartender was friendly and attentive. I sat at the bar so I was a bit chilly because of the door but I have no complaints. I can say I will be back.

    Food atmosphere and drinks are amazing. Waited almost half an hour to be seated with reservation and another almost half an hour to get table service and that was only after getting up from our seats to look for a manager. They comped a few things off of our bill for the inconvenience

    We visited the restaurant for Sunday Brunch. The food exceeded our expectations. It was great. I had the Nashville Hot Chicken and Butter Pecan Waffles and my husband had the Shrimp and Grits (and my waffles). The service was really good especially given the crowd . We actually ordered dinner to go so we could try some other items.

    Great food, ambiance and service, however the music is too loud, especially once you couple that when the restaurant gets crowded with lots of people and everyone is talking. Food is way overpriced. Guess the high rent for that space and location is being passed on to the customers.
