Kitchen and Kocktails - A Disappointing Dining Experience
I recently visited Kitchen and Kocktails and was extremely dissatisfied with both the food and the overall dining experience. As restaurant owners ourselves for many years, my husband and I found that this establishment falls far below what should be expected for the price.
Overpriced Menu
The food is vastly overpriced. At $25 for a half chicken breast, it's hard to justify the cost. Chicken is not a high-end ingredient, and serving it halved just feels like a poor attempt at value. To add to that, sides are $15 or more and don’t come with entrées. For the price, the portion sizes and overall quality should be far better.
Underwhelming Entrees
I ordered an entrée that featured a single short rib, which felt absurd for the price. We could have enjoyed a far more satisfying meal at a top-tier steakhouse for the same amount of money—around $250 for both of us.
Lackluster Drinks
The drinks were a huge letdown. They tasted like a sugary, watered-down Kool-Aid with just a hint of alcohol—definitely not worth the premium price tag.
Atmosphere and Ambiance
The atmosphere seems geared towards a younger crowd—mostly 18 to 20-year-olds—thanks to the club-like music. While the vibe might appeal to some, it doesn’t lend itself to a comfortable or relaxing dining experience for those seeking a more refined meal.
Additionally, the restaurant seems obsessed with photo ops, with aggressive marketing encouraging you to take pictures for $25, which comes across as tacky rather than charming.
Customer Service
On a positive note, our waitress was friendly and attentive, which was one redeeming quality in an otherwise underwhelming experience.
Recommendation
Based on what we experienced, we cannot recommend Kitchen and Kocktails. The owner, Kevin, might benefit from bringing in a hospitality consultant to help revamp the restaurant, improve both food quality and service, and reassess their overall approach to pricing
