Best Open Kitchen Restaurants in Washington DC

Great meal! Delicious food! Fun vibe. Our server, Carla, was fantastic! She greeted us, answered any questions we had about menu, made great recommendations. Would ask to sit at one of her tables again.

Lunch at Clarity is a treat from beginning to end - starting with the most amazing warm rolls! My colleague and I thoroughly enjoyed the food and the experience and I would highly recommend it to others. Our server, Victor, was knowledgeable about the menu and helped make the experience very pleasant.

This used to be one of our favorite restaurants when they had one in Lansdowne … now we schlep to Reston maybe once every 2 months. We practically had the whole place to ourselves 6pm on a Monday … which is a little concerning. No one likes to see that. The food was very good - we had the $50 for 2 special - and the service from Evan was excellent. We did find the food a little over salted, and when we asked for the bread to be warmed up it came back to us hard as a rock (that was new). Almost all of the prices are much higher than we remembered. And the really bad news - We drank Arnold Palmers, which at $5.95 made us feel like we won’t be back for a while (iced tea is only $3.95)

We were there at an off time and had the restaurant to ourselves. The servers were very attentive and the food came out quick and was delicious!

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!
