Enjoyed my dining experience at K+K, their attention to detail with specialty cocktails is a plus! The toasted marshmallow espresso martini is my fave! The food is always flavorful and staff very attentive. Our waitress Knori was fantastic!

The food, service, and drinks were excellent. The oysters were delicious, the branzino was prepared perfectly, and the pasta was perfectly al dente. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience with our friends first experience.

I absolutely loved The Alchemist! The entire menu was crafted so thoughtfully & I wanted to try every single drink! I like how this cocktail bar is more of an experience, with unique drinks & then an extra flare with smoke bubbles, flames, or that magic touch. I would 100% go back!

We have never been to the Ritz Carlton in DC so decided to eat at the Quadrant after a show we saw at the hotel. The ambiance was lovely and the service was impeccable. The food was delicious. It was a little pricey but we were not shocked as after all it is in the Ritz Carlton in Washington DC. Overall a great place to eat.

This was an incredible experience. Shoutout to Ismael who was a patient and wonderful staff member. My date and I had a long-anticipated 1st Date and he was very attentive, knew the menu from cover to cover. He knew exactly what drinks would be suitable and gave us time and space to allow our romance to take over naturally. We will never forget this experience and will 10/10 come back and 10/10 recommend!
