Kellari Taverna

This place has a lot of potential. The menu, ambience and location all looked great. However, from the moment we walked in, the hostess appeared to not understand us when we mentioned our reservation. She took us to a table and we waited over 10 minutes to be greeted. My husband got up to ask for a server. In response they sent over the same hostess (according to her they were very busy so she would take our order). She was unable to describe any of the food, how it tasted, whether it was spicy or not etc.. Later we were assigned a server who apologized for the situation with the hostess. The server proceeded to ask for our whole order (we had just given the host) all over again. As for the food- the potatoes with the lamb chops were a little lemony, the lamb chops could have been a little more tender. The Tzatziki sauce should have been an accompanying side as it is a traditional Greek sauce. Instead, a heaping bowl of it was served in a bowl for $10 when we asked for a little bit. Nothing was terrible but it could have been better. The SA Nathanael saved the experience he was so kind and welcoming. He also took the time to make the experience intimate and make conversation. It appears the staff falls apart when they are busy here.

Nice decor and drinks but my food came out barely warm. My friend raves about this place so I'll try again another time.

Went here for a date night dinner. Place has an upscale ambiance and is spacious. The food was prepared very well, octopus and the Sea bass were my favorite. The fish doesn't come with sides so you do have to order those separately. Portion size is good enough but the service was a bit slow, waiter only came by once. Good seafood, worth visiting.

We had a groupon which helped with the price. Overall great experience. Food was great mimosas were strong, and staff was nice. Only thing that hurt was the price. But what do you expect for bottomless mimosa brunch in DC. Would definitely go again for some special occasion.
