   1st visit. Sunday Brunch. Seated quickly. Waiter came quickly but didn’t do a great job of explaining our brunch worked, I.e., sides? There aren’t any sides with the entrees. Sides are $11 each, grits, eggs, etc. Surf & Turf was excellent. Patron Margarita $37 in fancy bottle glass. You don’t keep the glass. I ordered eggs, waiter forgot to add them so no eggs. I ordered coffee. First brunch ever that did not have coffee. Drinks took longer than expected. 2 people. 20 minutes before the 90 minute max table time, waiter returns for payment. We could go to the lounge if we wanted to hang out longer and finish our drinks. Brunch $254.80. Included 20% “fees and charges”. Waiter asked if I wanted to tip. I said I just did. He said not technically because the 20% fees and charges is split among the staff. I’m sorry but I am not paying another 20% “gratuity”.

   The portions we HUGE and the food was absolutely delicious, presentation and all. OVERALL the entire experience was great. In all honesty the server could have been more enthusiastic like everyone else we encountered. While looking around everyone seemed to be smiling and having a good time. I love the idea of the photographer but wish they were more forthcoming with the pricing of the photos. What's least desirable is the mandatory gratuity. I generally tip more than 20% , at my last outing I tipped 50% I understand the thought process but I like it to be my choice to tip for GREAT service. Will definitely return

   Server was good. Food was great. Parking was overpriced. Wait staff stood over our table waiting for us to put our fork down to snatch up our plates and our $22 drinks. Basically, we were not able to complete our meals or order dessert. It was time to go! Recommendation: stop trying to stay packed. It should not feel rushed or inconvenience at the price we paid. Allow customers the opportunity to enjoy their meal and time with friends and family. I wanted dessert. Unfortunately, I did not know they had a dessert menu since it was not offered. Since that was at the end, it did not interfere with our meal.

   The greens are glory can greens. The lamb chops were extra spicy which took away from the jerk flavor. The wait had a bad odor. She barely checked on us. After ordering drinks and an appetizer it took 30 mins to get her attention to order our meal and then it took 30 for us to get her attention to pay our bill.

   Everything was good except the ambiance and the value of what we ordered.. The food and drinks were good (fried catfish, awesome)but not to the point of the cost for it. ( the food should at least come with 2 sides) And the ambiance was not what we expected. We went dressed for a birthday celebration and online it says what not to wear but everyone was dressed regular. Didn’t expect that.. and $11 for a small glass of lemonade and for 14 sides each is madness lol the food was good so we had a good time. They also don’t allow u to bring cakes but don’t offer anything celebratory.

   I had a great experience at Kitchen + Kocktails on Friday evening. We arrived early for our reservation and were seated immediately. Our server Morghan was very friendly and walked us the through the menu to help us make a decision on what to order since this was our first time. I had the shrimp and grits which was delicious. My friend had the jerk lamb chops and mac and cheese which were also good. I also ordered the Dusse frosé which was really tasty but not super strong. Overall we had a great time. I will definitely be coming back.

    Band was good. Food was good. A little over priced but it was good. Service took a little too long as well but we were compensated for it so that was cool.
