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.

    I didn’t like the fact of our waffles being cold when everything else was nice and hot not to mention dough was not cooked thoroughly and not being able to see our bill before paying a gratuity of a three party group on top of adding a tip to see my bill higher than the food that was eaten….

    We had a reservation at 11:00am for Sunday Brunch, but arrived at 11:02am 😲 Upon entry, we were seated right away. The waitress came about 2 mins. and started us with drinks and water. Our food didn’t take long to come out. I ordered the Traditional Chicken and Waffles without the caramel sauce. Everything was good. The ambience was great! The price was affordable.

    Made reservations didn’t get seated until 45 minutes after my reservation time. Was taken to a lounge area to wait. Once finally got seated the waitress was super nice and gave us some suggestions on food and drinks since it was our first time there. Overall the food was worth the wait!!! Ten outta Ten HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

    Food and ambience were great! Price is pretty high for some items but quality was worth it. The service is pretty spotty. Had a waitress that was gone for 30+ minutes multiple times but luckily someone else came and checked on us and helped us out. Would definitely come back

    I was seated in the bar area I imagine because I was a party of one. Didn’t particularly like the small high top table and chairs without a backrest. The bartender who was also my waitress was very good. She created a drink for me based on my alcohol preferences. Food was good and reasonable priced.
