Great food, friendly staff. It was a bit loud, it's not an intimate setting, but great for the group vibes. Recommend the calamari it was awesome.Vegetarian options: They had an impossible burger and a few salads and sides

I love this place! The atmosphere has changed over the years but overall, it is a great place with good food. I like the music playing in the background as well. Christopher (not sure if he is a manager, host or both) but he went out of his way to make sure we were satisfied. There was a seating issue and he corrected it. Would definitely go there again however I am interested to see how the other locations operate.

Sat outside and the tables were a tad gross, but type would be hard to clean. Food was great and service was ok considering how busy it

This was there first busy day of the season. I will have to go back to her a thorough review.We went for happy hour for my birthday which was great. The prices are reasonable and the food was good. However the drinks were not, I’m not sure if it was because it’s happy hour, but they definitely watered down.The service was okay, I’m going to blame it on it being the first busy day (the sun was out). I have to go back to really see how the service was.It got really busy after 6 and bar seating was limited. They do take your card when you come in and it makes sense because of the service. I can tell they might have had a lot of walk outs because of the large space. Happy hour portions are different than the regular menu, for example, the wings only come with 5 instead of 10.I will go back. It’s definitely an after work vibe and I would like to be there when it’s not as busy.Parking was regular DC parking. We parked on the next street over and walked to the restaurant

KSOB was a vibe! I reserved a large table to host a work happy hour on St Pattys Day and we had great service as well as the food was delicious. The only thing I wish was different is the split check policy, but other than that I love this place and will definitely be returning.

1st time here but a relative frequents and thought I’d like. We ordered appetizers oyster, raw, charbroiled, Rockefeller, Fried Calamari, AsianTuna, Blue crab Dip& Mud Pie. Drinks: Allagash Ale, Colada& Expresso Martini . Service was good & waitress was pleasant but not automatic $37 gratuity added good. Food was really good especially the calamari.

This is the BEST happy hour in DC! The staff made it the most excellent— especially JP at the bar and Lilo, they were fantastic. I come here often for happy hour but was so impressed by the service I received today. I’ll definitely be back!

Jp is a very rude bartender, and argues with guest, he was the precursor to a very bad experience that I had there. He ushered his friends over to take seats at the bar which I was waiting for. He gave the restaurant a very ghetto low class look. Food is good service is atrocious.

we waited 20 minutes outside for a server to come and give us water (no cups)/silverware and to take our orders. when the food came we still didn’t have silverware. every time we ordered a drink or food item they sent it to the wrong table. one of the waiters spilled two shots and a long island ice tea on us breaking a glass by our feet and spilling drink on our clothes. they didn’t even offer to take anything off our bill for that.they charge 20 percent gratuity and don’t bother about giving good service. really disappointing
