Best Open Kitchen Restaurants in Penn Quarter

Our waitress was great. Stayed on top of our needs. Highly impressed with the host.

This was our second visit to The Dabney and it was just as good as the first time. The food is amazing, beautiful and delicious beyond belief. The staff is so attentive in a good way and explains each course (we did the tasting menu). We sat by the kitchen and it was great to watch the fire, the cooking, the careful prep of each plate and the camaraderie between kitchen and serving staff. It’s expensive and we can’t do this often, but it was worth the splurge.

Superior service and food. Thoughtful recommendations and attention to allergens. Seafood tower was best in the area. Perfect evening out.

The food is excellent. I have had their deli salad a couple of times and it is consistently good. The service is excellent. A number of servers will take care of you. You don't necessarily have to wait for your server to take care of your table. This is a real plus.

Had a wonderful experience. The food was delicious and the service was great. We sat at the counter and were able to watch the chef make everything. Since we went on a Monday, wine was market price, so we enjoyed the salmon special and pork chop with a bottle of wine. Too bad they're closing the restaurant portion, because we would definitely go back. Looking forward to taking some cooking classes there though!
