   It’s nice to say that you went but the 20% service charge that’s not a tip was surprising because the expectation is that you’ll tip on top of that charge. The portions were pretty small and the drink portions were small as well. I wouldn’t come back and I wouldn’t recommend it. The service was good and the plating was nice.

   We have been to a number of Hell’s Kitchens, mostly with excellent results but sometimes not so much. Our experience in the Washington DC restaurant was outstanding. All aspects of the experience were at the very high level we would expect. The service was excellent and we had warm and accommodating attention the whole night. One of the wait staff even went the extra mile and secured for my daughter the iconic Hell’s Kitchen pin! Kitchen was operating on all thrusters! We had filet, short ribs, and salmon, all of which were cooked to perfection. The sides of potatoes au gratin, macaroni and cheese, and braised brussel sprouts were also exceptionally tasty. Finally, the Caesar salad they brought out was enough for the whole table. The only ding I would say was that it was a bit noisier than we prefer and we did have the unfortunate luck to be seated next to a booth that did have two small children who were a bit rambunctious and noisy. But having had four children ourselves who are all now grown, we well understand and accept the travails of taking young children out to dinner. Overall, our experience was excellent and we will return again when next in DC.

   The food and the service were amazing. The atmosphere is fantastic, but the music was just a bit too loud.

   I was told by more than five people to not waste our money. I wish I had listened. Service started out great but then our waitress decided she wanted to go home to be with her cats, yes she told us that. We were the only table in a far off corner, waiting for our drinks and dinners, then when they came I had to wait again for someone to fetch the guy so I could tell him my roast chicken was tough. Now if you add that to my husband already having his mind set that it was gonna be terrible because everyone said so, the bill was $365 with an automatic 20% gratuity and only 16% of it going to the server and my husband tips more than 20% no matter where we go or what we're eating so they just cut their nose off despite their face. I forgot about the drink...We ordered an orange vodka sprite but it was so strong we couldn't drink it until we could get someone's attention to bring more sprite. Now as I'm looking at my receipt we see that we were overcharged on drink so I'm going to be going back over there tonight and talk to the manager. This is unacceptable I should not have to do this or write a bad review for such a supposedly high dining experience.

   The service fee is ridiculous. The food and service are outstanding.

   Amazing service from everyone, from the people who greet you at the door to the people who serve the food to people just passing by as you walk. We had a big group and they were very accommodating. The food was excellent— risotto was creamy, short rib was tender, and the toffee pudding was a perfect end to a great meal.

    Everything was good! Food came out in 15 minutes. Whole experience was 50 minutes with excellent wait staff. Also, Best Brussel sprouts I’ve EVER had. I get them everywhere. I would go back just for those.
