   I have always enjoyed visiting Hell's Kitchen in DC. I love the environment and have always experienced friendly and outstanding staff. However, last night, our server rarely came to our table. It took forever to receive our main course, and the server even forgot my to-go order, so I had to wait even longer. This was followed by a 20% automatic tip added to the bill for a party of four. I suppose less qualified servers are employed since the 20% tip is automatically applied, regardless of the service quality.

   Staff was super friendly and helpful. The restaurant is beautiful and the views are wonderful. The food was delicious. I had the Crab Roll with Fries and the Passionfruit Mocktail. So amazing it all was! Be back again and again.

   Food was good, except the chicken. Don’t get the chicken. However you are charged a 20% service fee that is split between wait staff and kitchen plus you are verbally and in writing asked to tip you waiter still. That is a lot. 40% of a meal should NOT be on gratuities and service fees. Just up the cost of menu pricing and pay your people better instead of making the customers burden to figure out.

   Fans of Chef! Made reservations to celebrate teen’s birthday and he cleaned off every bit of his plates. He loved it and has asked to dine again in the future. Great atmosphere but pretty adult busy. Not as family friendly as I had hoped. I messaged asking if two high chairs could be provided and was informed they could be. Upon entering, the hostess didn’t seem interested in helping us; maybe because we have toddler twins in our arms. A warmer greeting would’ve been a great start. The manager who stopped by our table did make up for it a little by chatting with us and acknowledging our existence. Nonetheless, we do plan on dining there again. ‘Til next time…..ciao!

   The good: beef wellington is amazing and the grilled branzino is great (but will be removed from menu for some reason!). Other food and desserts were good, but not over and above other restaurants. The view from where we sat (blue side - separate side room) is really nice. The bad: they messed up our order, and I had to wait longer for my correct meal to be prepared, but we were offered no compensation for it other than a verbal apology. Other restaurants of this caliber would have done something (free dessert at least). The 5-star cost does not match the service or food quality (except perhaps the wellington). The bathrooms are dark and there was quite a mess when we were there.

   We made a 5:30 reservation in advance. Got dressed up. The only seats they had were in the bar area. I asked for different seats but they insisted this is all they had. The service this night was the same as an local chain restaurant, mediocre. The drinks took 20 minutes to come out. The food was delicious but at $350 for one beef wellington, mac and cheese, lobster risotto and meatballs, it was expensive considering the service and bar experience.
