Setting is gorgeous, food and service were great. The only hiccup was that they didn’t have the reservation made and confirmed through Open Table and told me that they now use a different system. To their credit, they sat us anyway but it does cause me to question how much I can rely on a reservation made through OpenTable?

We wanted to sit near a window, but were informed that this was not an option, though there was no mention of it in the reservation process. The service was good until the end of our meal, when the restaurant got busy, and our waiter disappeared. It took twenty minutes for him to process our payment, inexplicably. The food was good, though expensive; nothing special, I would say.

We were so pleased that the Roof Terrace at Kennedy Center has reopened! The staff was very friendly and welcoming, and the service was attentive and professional. The menu is similar to the past version, with a few new additions. The lamb chops were excellent, perfectly prepared and arranged on a bed of sweet potato/brussels sprouts slaw. The filet was also very good. The wine list is varied and bar service is available as well. We also enjoyed the dessert menu, especially the citrus creme brulee. It was nice to see the place fill up with diners (with tables well-spaced). We had a lovely dinner!

Service was nonexistant. We arrived 1 hour and a half hours before our show so we could enjoy a leisurely meal.The room was full. We ordered soon after we arrived. After 45 minutes without our entriees we started searching for our waiter. After getting his attention he told us it would arrive shortly . It did not. In fact by the time we began our meal the room was empty. In fact, the only way we ever received food was thru the intervention of the manager, who also comped our meal.

A lot of confusion over the checks by us and numerous other diners. The scriber benefit (10%) was not deducted from the bill and the staff was given the scriber benefits card. A tip of 15% was also added to the bill without any prior notification. We have been subscribers for over 25 years and almost always eat at the Roof Top Terrace before every show. This is the worst experience we have ever had.

Terrible service. We were greeted and seated well but then left without attention and had a lot of trouble getting any. We waited more than 30 min between appetizer and main - no update, no bread, no explanation as to why. My lamb was terribly undercooked but considering how long we waited for it we had no time to return it given we were there for a show. Then it took nearly 15 min to alert the waiter that we wanted to pay and another 15 to actually pay. Everyone else way laying and leaving for the show and we were stuck. I thought this was a special treat prior to a show at the Kennedy Center but next time we will dine off site.

We had the sweet potato bisque, scallops (a pricey $36 appetizer!), and crème brulee for dessert. We shared the scallops, which were very fresh and paired with spaghetti squash. The dessert was perfect but best of all was our server Theo, who ensured we were able to complete a leisurely meal and depart in time for the 7:30 curtain for Giovanni.

Although this place was nice with a nice view, I am thoroughly upset that the food is so expensive, that they pulled my meal out of a microwave. I ordered then not even 5 minutes go by and my food is ready. I ordered Australian Lamb Rack. It was luke warm. The best thing I received was the French martini. Compliments to the bartender. The waiter was excellent. I want a refund that’s how bad it was. I am assuming they do not have a real functioning kitchen. They should. My food was $38. You are only paying for the view. I could have just went up there without dinner and on to the rooftop. I am utterly disappointed.

The roof terrace restaurant seems geared toward those attending a show at the Kennedy Center. The menu is focused but has a reasonable range of choices. The waitstaff and kitchen are experienced in getting dinners through their meal in time for the show without their feeling rushed. The food quality is excellent. We have had at least 6 meals at this restaurant over the past several years and all have been very nice. The bar is great. The cocktails are very professional. There is a reasonable wine by the glass list.

I requested a window table - fairly certain I requested it when I reserved. I asked the maitre'd who did not make eye contact with me. The woman who brought us to a table in the middle of the room was unfriendly. We asked again to be seated at the window - there were many available tables without reserved signs on the table. We did not get a window table - we were seated one row back. Menu is not designed for those can't digest spicy foods. Very little choice for us. The small dessert menu offered the strangest unappealing combos. The Harney tea selection offered just 4 different teas - so disappointing as Harney has a wide variety of delicious teas. I ordered a side of roasted vegetables which was not served with the entree. I had to ask the server. The server was a bit brusque. Bottom line, wouldn't go back: the menu, the service and the unfriendliness of the maitre'd left much to be desired.

What about a restaurant where the main course arrives 2 minutes after the appetizer, while you’re busy eating what just came in? And the server just drops the plates somewhere on your table and disappears, leaving them to cool at room temperature. And the main course (striped bass) didn’t need to be rushed in: it was bland to the point of being taste free. I tried hard to find some flavor, to no avail. Also, a glass of Sancerre will set you back $19.00, which is the price of a nice bottle of the same wine. At 4.5 glasses per bottle, that’s a 450% mark up. Had been there before and had the charcuterie, better stick to that: there’s no cooking involved so hard to mess it up. Also, it’s at room temperature so doesn’t really matter when they bring it. Foolproof choice.

I came here for my fiance's birthday. Staff was very friendly and prompt. I will say that the food was just ok for the price point. It is also not an "intimate" ambiance since tables are close together and go toward the middle of the dining room. I wish the seating arrangements were a little more private and intimate.
