Never disappoints. We go about once a month as they’re only two blocks away and we always leave full and happy. Best desserts in town

All Hallows’ Eve was blessedly relaxed, and suitably informal with hosts in costume, and service finely attuned to the guests. It was a surprisingly small crowd for a Saturday night, but the kitchen was in full swing, and dishes arriving promptly. It is hard to resist past favorites; so, we both opted for the brisket, one a sandwich with sides, the other a platter. We were not disappointed. After dinner, we adjourned to the bar, which was easily up to the same standard. The DuBoissan Ale, 12% is a favorite.

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!

    I go here every time I am in DC for brunch, it’s my favorite place for brunch. Always have a great food experience, I highly recommend the Voodoo Coolers! Service, food always the best. It gets very busy so other people must think the same.
