    The food and vibe was cool, the service was great our waiter was a Latin man that was very attentive. Will come back for sure, especially on the late night social vibe.

    Sunday brunch. Sparsely attended. Limited menu. No appetizers. Stay away from the chilaquiles. I don’t see much of a future unless drastic changes are made. It’s a shame since it’s a nice atmosphere.

    Overall great vibes, food and drinks. Waiter(Tez) was knowledgeable and had good recommendations. The menu is red meat heavy with the protein options but the fish was excellent. Live music was a nice addition also.

    We had a wonderful experience at The Kennedy! The food, service and ambience were fantastic. We also enjoyed the live piano! Michelle, our waitress, was phenomenal! She was very attentive and sweet. Andres, the owner, was very accommodating and went out out of his way to make sure we had an excellent time. We will definitely be back!

    Great night out. Excellent Wagya burger and duck confit. Sat at the bar and had mostly excellent service there. Loved the people watching. Decor and ambiance are first rate. Live piano was just right; adds to ambiance without being obstrusive. Valet parking can be a bit of a nightmare, especially on a rainy night. But, it adds to the "movie premiere" vibe in a positive way if you can roll with it. 6:00 is a good time to arrive if you want bar seating. But it fills up fast. Will definitely return.

    Food was terrible, the short rib was not short rib. We had to send it back twice. They didn’t offer any thing. Staff was not professional. Terrible experience. Do not waste your time
