    Beautiful atmosphere, great service. The food doesn’t match. Definitely need to upgrade the menu and quality of food. Cocktails were good.

    We were most impressed with the overall experience at The Kennedy. First, the ambiance/decor is gorgeous. It's a place that makes (most people) want to dress up a bit. Next, service was excellent. Our waiter was friendly, knowledgeable and prompt. Finally, the food was outstanding. We not only enjoyed our dishes immensely, we felt the prices were very fair. My husband had the crabcake benedict and I had the Ashkuashi steak and eggs. Delicious! I had a Bloody Mary that was super tasty as well. I am pleased that The Kennedy has a dress code but it's for evening. It's frustrating for me to see people in ball caps and tee shirts and jeans in such a lovely place, but that is permitted at brunch. We will be back. We thought it was really excellent.

    Service was slow, and my waiter failed to place my appetizer request or guest drink order when I requested. Claimed to be holding it until my guest arrived, but I specifically said I wanted it now and not to wait. When my guest arrived the service was slow and had the waiter listed to my request we could have been enjoying ourselves instead of just sitting there waiting. I was getting tipsy because the appetizer never arrived. Then when out food finally arriver, we had steak with no sides. We had to ask for steak knives and it felt like was a big ask, I guess that because they precut the steaks, not sure. The food was just ok, mac and cheese tasted like nacho cheese. I recieved a phone call while dining from their front desk personnel, because they thought I missed my reservation, however I had been seated for at least 30 mins at that time, not organized. Paid $10 valet to park my car a few parking spaces from outside the door and they did not lock my vehicle back. I had to get up to tell them me vehicle was not locked, because my car will alert me. It was just not at all what we anticipated. If I came back I would try the bar only because the highlight was the drinks and music.

    Food for brunch was amazing. Service from the bar was horrible. Slowest bartender I’ve ever seen and weirdness regarding the pitchers of sangria and mimosa. Ethan was a treasure but probably not well trained. Seems like a top down problem. Place could be an awesome brunch spot with a Dj and trained servers. Missed the mark.
