Food is amazing and the staff is so nice!! Definitely get a fun cocktail they are delicious! The lobster roll and the carrots are both incredible and my personal favorites but you really can’t go wrong with anything on the menu.Food: 5/5

This location has an incredible vibe. I loved all of the little details in the furniture and decor. The service was okay, but the food makes up for it. We enjoyed our dishes very much! I recommend this location for sure!Food: 5/5

Had dinner here on a Thursday in the summer and it was a great experience! We were lucky to get a seat outside on the patio (made a res, but patio is still first available I believe) and the views on the river are beautiful. Keep in mind that the seats outside are all high-top chairs.The food and drinks were all tasty too. The menu was primarily shareables, so we all got to try a little of everything.I would primarily come back for the atmosphere/views, but was pleasantly surprised with The Kitchen overall. From my experience, this is one of those places that almost always has tables available when you go to book, which made me a bit skeptical, but everything including the service was very good.
