Enjoyed my dining experience at K+K, their attention to detail with specialty cocktails is a plus! The toasted marshmallow espresso martini is my fave! The food is always flavorful and staff very attentive. Our waitress Knori was fantastic!

Got there a few minutes late for our reservation and they were very accommodating about getting us seated quickly. Delish food, hip vibe, and terrific service by Jose G. A great place to get a meal before (or after) a show at the Anthem, so we'll be back!

Reconnected with a good friend during HU Homecoming weekend & decided to drop in for a sure fire tasty meal. This was my second time dining brunch at this restaurant so I went with the buttermilk chicken & waffles entree (I had the French toast on my first visit & truly loved it). My friend ordered the rib eye steak & eggs with potatoes (I had some and it was delicious). The ambiance and service were on point yet again. Art and Soul is on my favorite DC restaurant list for sure!!

I attended a work conference nearby and found this place online. We had the best experience at this location. The evening temperature was perfect for sitting outside, which was the plan, but the are we wanted to sit was occupied. Upon being seated at another table on the patio the group occupying the fireside table immediately invited us to join them. We had the best service and made some new friends as well!
