Kache hosted a CBC Meet up event this past Tuesday. The venue seems more accommodating to hosting outdoors than inside. The first and 2nd floors are relatively small, but there are multiple bars to choose from. I can't speak on the food, but The Gatekeeper (Volcan Reposdo Tequila, Pinnneapple, Guva, Cane Sugar, Ginger Liqueur, and Chandon Rosé) was decent for a complimentary drink.
Calm and low key vibe, very nice place for dinner, whether an evening date or girls night. There wasn't anything on the menu that disappointed. Our table ordered the calamari and crab hush puppies for a shareable. It was precisely delectable. The hush puppies were bite sized but included a good amount of crab, they were 3 in the order. The calamari was great! There is a nice kick in the sauce that blends well. For the entree, we ordered the shrimp po' boys and Flip A Bird (Taiwanese fried chicken). I'd say there were no trays needed to box up! My entree the Flip A Bird (Taiwanese fried chicken) came with a sauce of Hot Honey and it complimented the dish well. Although, it did not need it. The chicken was well seasoned and plain on its own was mouth-watering. The sauce was a plus! When I come back to DC, certainly I'll be revisiting.
I visited this restaurant while I was in DC for the weekend. The server was very attentive and friendly. She provided us with great recommendations on the menu. She was also very patient. For a Saturday night it was relatively quiet. But there's a bar upstairs where most people go to get a drink before heading out to party. For my appetizer I had the Hey Mambo which is Calamari. It was well prepared and very tasty. The sauce provided was very good. For my entree, I had the Mimi's Po Boy that came with fries. The sandwich was delicious and the shrimp was well seasoned. The fries were fried to perfection. I enjoyed my entire meal. There was a DJ that was playing nice music and the vibe was chill. I would definitely visit this restaurant again whenever I'm in DC.
We continued our tour of DC happy hours with a trip to Kaché on a Wednesday night. We arrived a little before 5, so it was only us and another table of 2 at the restaurant. The staff were super attentive and we found out that the restaurant has only been open a few months. Because it wasn't that busy, the hostess spoke to us for a bit. The bartender also brought us a drink to ask us what we thought of it. We ordered one of each of the $5 happy hour specials and added on a warm cabbage salad. The salad needs a rebranding, but I liked having some charred veggies to balance out all of the fried stuff. My favorite item on the Happy Hour Menu was The Sweet Spot (crispy shrimp). After eating all the appetizers, we added on a Smoke & Stack burger. This was by far my most favorite part of the meal. A very large, juicy beef patty, cheese, garlic aioli on a soft potato bun. What puts this over the top is the cooked down onion jam. It's like caramelized onion deluxe - I think I could put this on ice cream. Fries were really well cooked. Kache has an awesome laid back vibe with an extremely staff and some unique dishes. We really enjoyed our experience here.
Can here for a Friday happy hour and honestly the food, vibes and service were immaculate. That fried chicken sandwich and quiet crab were so yum! Reasonable priced at $5!! You can't beat that for a DC happy hour. Next time I will definitely be getting more food because it was that good. The drinks were also decent priced at $10. Upstairs is beautiful...it gives speakeasy, date night vibes but the patio is just a vibe, that the few times I've been here we sat out there.
My buddy wanted to hang out for my birthday since he missed my party. Knowing that he worked downtown, I figured this would be a good area to meet up in. And it worked out oh so well. I may have heard of this spot once or twice, but I didn't know much about it, and decided this would be the time to check it out. The staff at the entrance were very nice, and guided me to the bar area upstairs. I loved the decor, and the bar was very tight with few seats that were all full. But right in front of me was this comfy couch that wasn't reserved... so I waited for my buddy there. In doing so, I looked over both the happy hour menu and broader menu. Because their address is 510, they have $5 food & $10 drinks, which I think is clever. Let's dive into what I got: Okay, so there's only five happy hour bites, so we got them all. Quiet crabs: crab hush puppies basically. PERFECT. K Street fries: truffle fries... good! Bird's da Word sammie: ooooh they shouldn't have puut gochujang on there, it was TOO GOOD. Sweet potato flatbread: mind you, it has a spread on top, the flatbread isn't made of sweet potato. But was it good? No. It was PERFECT. The Sweet Spot: TASTY tasty shrimp. Fed Flower: If you love gin, get this. The mango puree really set it off! DC Tap: smoked drink that was booooomb! So nothing missed the mark. It's perfect for a date night. The decor is great. The music is great. The staff are great. Soon. Soon I'll return!
We celebrated my little one's 11th birthday here and all had a wonderful time! This restaurant is super cool in many ways. It's a bit eclectic in the diverse music it plays on the playlist and the flavors of food. The decor of the walls made it feel like I'm transported to a new world. And the food was very fun and unique, good for foodies! And last but not least, exceptional service! To be fair, we were there for early dinner/ happy hour on a weekday so there weren't many other patrons, so they were super duper nice to us. It made my daughter feel special on her birthday. Every dish here had some twist to it. The owner explained that she wanted to bring the world of flavors together in one place. My favorite items were the Quiet Crabs (hush puppies), the Sweet Spot (crispy shrimp), sweet potato flat bread, and the cookie dessert that I forgot to take a picture of. Our waitress brought our burger over with the glazed onion sauce on the side because she wasn't sure my kids would like it. And she was totally correct. My husband and I loved that sauce so we used extra for our bite. I like that all the staff were super thoughtful in doing things like this! The bartender gave us some small samples of a drink that he named Quiet Night. And they gave us free dessert for my daughter's birthday. Our entire experience here was awesome, and I couldn't have asked for anything better!
We had a glass of Prosecco and a federal flower to start with. The Prosecco was good as Prosecco usually is. The federal flower was excited for the mango but it was a soft hint of it. I think muddled mangos may change the game on a drink like this ! We got the fries and cabbage to start with fries they give you the perfect amount to share and the aioli is beyond words so good ! The cabbage was . . . Interesting it has the potential to be perfect but there's something on top that makes the dish extremely bitter and it over powers and takes over the taste of the cabbage. The Brussels were good they do have a bit of spice to them and grapes but it's not a bad mix at all just be prepared. The sweet potatoes were also good ! The mocktails are delicious here. We also had the absolute best service from entering the establishment until we left. The owner came out and she checked on each table. We had Darwin as our server and he made sure we were taken care of the entire time. When we arrived they offered to take our coats and umbrella and just treated us well the entire time. I would absolutely come back and vibe out at the bar. They had a really good music selection as well
Visiting Kache during their soft opening and I had good time. The food was the star of the show. The Taiwanese fried chicken was excellent. Perfectly seasoned and cooked. The servers were nice but needed more time with the menu, but that can be developed with time. It was a good vibe in the lounge area upstairs with a bar and good music. The vibe downstairs was different. More quiet and isolating than the rest of the restaurant. I did however like the coat check option, as the lounge area upstairs didn't have much seating let alone space to check your coat. There were lounge seating along the wall, but the seating across from the lounge seating was a low chair stool, which wasn't the most comfortable for long sitting periods. Nonetheless, like I said it was a good vibe and I'm looking forward to the grand opening.
Let's start off by saying, as someone who grew up in DC, the city has really morphed into a place where you can truly experience what it means to be an adult with top-tier dining options--and Kaché DC fits right into that evolution. We came on a Wednesday night and from the moment we walked in, the staff was warm, welcoming, and attentive. The décor is very appealing--super cute and stylish. A few of my dining companions are on the taller side and requested chairs with backs, and the staff happily accommodated without hesitation. The bartender was amazing. He crafted custom cocktails for us and even named one after my friend--so when you go, ask for "The Byron," smoked. You won't regret it. I had the Secret Garden Refresher, and it lived up to its name: light, crisp, and very refreshing. We started with the K Street Fries--crispy, well-seasoned, and absolutely delicious. We also tasted the Hey Mambo, which is their unique take on calamari, and we loved the mambo sauce. The Quiet Crab is a winner too--thinking it was going to be more hushpuppy than anything, we were pleasantly surprised that it was packed with crab. 10 out of 10, highly recommend. For entrees: * Mimi's Po' Boy (shrimp): The bread was soft, the shrimp were fried to perfection, and the remoulade added the perfect balance of flavor. It also came with fries, which were a great complement. * Smoke & Stack Burger: Cooked exactly as requested, super juicy, and paired perfectly with the fries. It was devoured--no crumbs left behind. For dessert, we shared the Sticky Toffee Cookie and the Soft Landing. The Sticky Toffee Cookie was my favorite--rich, warm, and comforting. The only thing missing was a scoop of ice cream to take it over the top. Overall, Kaché has a nice, chill vibe with great food, creative cocktails, and attentive service. It's definitely on our list of places to revisit.
I visited Kache for the first time, and truly had an amazing experience. The happy hour menu provides a wide range of small plates for $5 and drinks for $10. The dinner menu has additional appetizers and larger entrees with unique and creative twists on flatbreads, burgers, chicken, and more. We had the Quiet Crabs (crab hush puppies), Hey Mambo (calamari), Crab Yew Tew (crab pasta), Flip The Bird (fried chicken), She Said (eggplant), Crispy Business (Brussels sprouts) and the Sticky Toffee Cookie. My favorites were the crab hush puppies, fried chicken, which was soft yet crunchy, and Brussels sprouts, which were seasoned to perfection. The dessert toffee cookie was a great way to end the meal -- it was like a this gingerbread pancake topped with caramel and cream. I enjoyed each dish and the workers had great energy and amazing service. This restaurant is new but I look forward to seeing it grow and I want to try more of the happy hour items, as well as the tuna flatbread.
Kaché was even more than I expected! I'll absolutely be back. I live fairly close, so I'll also be a regular, especially when weather warms up to enjoy the beautiful & spacious patio. Kaché offers not just vibes and beautiful decor, but a thoughtfully curated menu that makes you want to order everything. The menu item names are also really catchy and pay homage to the area, so they really stand out. From the moment we walked in, the service was top-tier. Two levels, a sexy upstairs bar, and cocktails that were both beautiful and packed a punch. Lumi manages the bar with precision and makes sure everyone is well taken care of. I'm talking over the top amazing service! What we ordered: Hey Mambo Calamari - perfectly cooked Crispy Business - brussels with bold, unexpected twists Flip the Bird - Taiwanese-style fried chicken with hot honey sauce I could literally drink Federal Flower Spritz & Chocolate City Dream with tequila Finished with a Good Ol'Fashioned Filibuster + Sticky Toffee Cookie They also have hour M-F from 4-6:30 with $5/$10 app & drink specials. I'll absolutely be back
First time at Kaché and it was great! The service, the DJ and the food were all really good. I think my favorite bites were the crab hush puppies and the calamari. I've never had calamari with mumbo sauce before but I'm now a fan! Melissa and Wes were amazing. Will definitely be back
Such a vibe! I was originally considering this place for a birthday brunch, but I couldn't quite get a feel for how they accommodate larger parties, so I decided to check it out for happy hour first. We were not disappointed! The happy hour menu definitely delivers. We tried the Quiet Crab, chicken sandwich, shrimp with mumbo sauce, and fries. The Quiet Crab was the star of the food lineup. Absolutely delicious and perfectly cooked. Unfortunately, the happy hour portion only comes with one because I definitely could have eaten more! I would also love to see a basket of regular hush puppies on the menu because they absolutely nailed that combination of sweet corn flavor and a crispy outside. And the music? Sultry, sexy, and exactly right for the space. The playlist was giving Afrobeats, smooth vibes, and grown-up happy hour with tracks like Burna Boy's "Vanilla," Tems' "Ordinary People," Asake's "Organise," JayO's "High Heels," and "Wahala Riddim." It added so much to the atmosphere and made this the kind of place where you want to settle in, order another drink, and stay awhile. Now, the Beltway Mule made by Kennedy was THE star of the evening. Delicious, perfectly sweet with just the right amount of spice, and very fitting for my hometown of Washington, DC. Speaking of Kennedy, she is an absolute gem! Her energy and mixology skills really made the experience. If you can pull up when she's behind the bar, I highly recommend it. She was easily one of the highlights of our visit. Great food, great drinks, sexy music, and an overall great vibe. And it's an InKind dining pick, which makes it even better! read more
Kache was the final food stop on the For the Culture DMV Food Tour, and overall...it was decent. The food was decent, the service was decent, and the general manager was pleasant. He's also a sommelier, so he personally poured and explained our wine, which was a nice touch. The chicken and salad we were served were actually pretty good. But after some of the disappointing dishes at the previous tour stops, I honestly found myself wondering...was it really that good, or was it just better than what I'd already been eating all day? Either way, I cleaned my plate. The space, however, is TINY--both upstairs and downstairs. The outdoor dining and bar area is much larger and definitely seems like the better option when the weather cooperates. And listen...after a full food tour, I absolutely HATED climbing those stairs! It also made me wonder how guests with mobility challenges are expected to navigate this space. Seriously...how are some of these restaurants accommodating ADA accessibility? On a positive note, the bathrooms were nice and well maintained. Would I return? Maybe...I'm not exactly rushing back, but I wouldn't rule it out either. read more
I came here for an evening event. The ambiance was lovely. The patio with a bar and amazing DJ made this place an ideal location for drinks and bites. However, the wait for drinks was absolutely unacceptable! I waited 40 minutes for my first order and an hour for my second order. There are two bars, 1 upstairs and 1 downstairs, and they were both overwhelmed. The customer service was definitely lacking. It was my first time and I like to give restaurants more than one try but with the price for drinks and lacking customer service, I doubt I'll be back soon. read more

Kache is a black owned restaurant serving globally inspired American cuisine. They have a great happy hour selection available Tuesday to Friday from 5-7 pm. I would recommend the margarita, mule, quiet crab, shrimp, chicken sandwich and fries. I sat at the bar and the service was great. They also play music on select nights after 9 pm. The dining room has a dimly lit intimate vibe and the enclosed patio is perfect for the happy hour. read more

This has become my new happy hour spot. Five dollar food options and $10 drink options. You really cannot beat that in DC. Everything wants to charge you, the arm, the leg, the back, the neck, the hair, the nails. Not this spot tons of things to try Wednesday happy hour goes till 8 PM all night half off on wine you cannot beat that. Staff very knowledgeable shows that they know what they're doing what they're talking about they care. The sommelier very nice gentleman that definitely knows his wines. Had an amazing Malbec blend that I had to go pick up myself. My favorites are the K St. fries with the truffle aïoli with a federal flower drink one drink is typically you're good to go, but of course your girl never stops there. She always does a bit too much so I end up having several so I would say the margarita is also good but like I said that wine to the blend must try parking. Here is what parking is in DC so just don't try it. I always park on Ice Street. The vibe there is a really cute vibe as well. They have a nice little indoor outdoor space as well as a TV downstairs that will typically play different sporting events if that's your thing. read more

A solid 3.5! I've been here twice now. The outside patio and bar area is great and I've enjoyed sitting there both times. The happy hour menu has great prices and generous portions. I truly loved the crab hush puppies and I would recommend them to anyone. There are only two but they're very rich and absolutely delicious (no skimping on the crab). The chicken sandwich had great portions but the chicken was soft/soggy - I prefer a crisp fried chicken so that didn't hit for me, and the bun was a bit sad/dry. I was hoping for a bit more heat in the sauce since it mentioned gochujang. The sticky toffee pudding was a major miss for me. The cookie was hard and dry, bland, and served lukewarm. I was hoping for warm and gooey. Especially for a sticky toffee pudding-based dessert! The whipped cream on it was really good but the sauce was sickly sweet and missing salt across the board. I would be willing to go back to try some other mains and to order the happy hour crab hush puppies again, because those are special, but I wasn't impressed overall by the quality. Service was slow but they're new and I imagine that will change with time. It was easy to walk in without reservations. read more

I came here after seeing this spot pop up on Instagram for happy hour, and finding out it's only been open for about six weeks made me even more excited to check it out. I've got high hopes for this place. The happy hour menu has around 12 items between food and drinks, and I ordered almost everything. The food was all $5 and drinks were $10 which is a really good price for a happy hour. The fried crab hush puppies were really good, even though you only get two and they're probably the smallest portion on the menu. Still worth ordering. The chicken sandwich was super fire. Very flavorful, with a sauce that had a little heat and sweetness to it. I was genuinely surprised by the size. For $5, I was expecting a slider, but this was a full sandwich. My favorite food item was easily the crispy shrimp with mumbo sauce. The sauce had a serious kick, and it came with these cucumber slices that tasted lightly pickled with chili and vinegar. That combo was elite. I also grabbed the fried chicken to go, paired it with the truffle gravy and hot pot sauce, mixed them together, and yeah... that was gas. Drink-wise, the margarita was my favorite. Perfect balance of sweet and sour, not overly tart like a lot of lime margaritas can be. I also tried the fed flower, which was solid, especially if you're into gin. The mezcal mule was the only miss for me. Not bad, just way too much ginger, so I passed it to my plus one. The only thing worth noting is service speed. We were literally the only two people in the restaurant since we came right when they opened, and while drinks came out quickly, the food took a bit longer than expected. Not enough to knock off a star, but something to keep in mind if the place gets busy. Overall, I'll definitely be back. This is for sure getting added to my happy hour rotation, and I've already heard they may start doing DC brunch, which I'll absolutely be pulling up for. Strong start for a new spot and a lot of potential here. read more

Two friends and I visited Kaché last night and had a great experience! First off, the customer service was exceptional! Our waiter, Darwin, and the GM, Mucilina (hope I'm spelling that right) were extremely friendly, helpful, and attentive. Definitely made us feel more than welcome. The atmosphere upstairs was cozy and sexy. Definitely cute for a date night. We tried a lot of menu items and enjoyed everything. The Crab Yew Tew, Zino, Brussels, calamari, hush puppies, sweet potato flatbread, and all three desserts. My favorite dessert was the sticky toffee cookie. The music playing in the background was a nice R&B vibe. Overall, I would definitely recommend and would certainly return. read more

Saw that this place was new and wanted to give it a try. Went on a thursday night and got seated right away. The food was really good and interesting, everything had a pretty unique twist. The crab hush puppies (Quiet Crabs) were really good, a little bit sweet like a hush puppy but not too much, and full of crab. My other favorite was the "Flip a Bird" fried chicken, we got the truffle gravy sauce with it and it was really delicious, had a pretty unique flavor but not too crazy. The burger and crab cavatelli were also really good. The onions on the burger were delicious. I had the Capitol Hill cocktail and it was also a great twist on a classic drink, the smoked rosemary spring added a really nice touch. While we were finishing our meal the owner sat at a table near us and introduced himself and was telling us about how they smoke the drinks. Super cool. Would definitely recommend!! read more

As a 2nd time visitor to DC from California (by way of New Orleans), this restaurant took me by surprise and completely welcomed me to the city! The initial welcome came by way of the amazing owners & staff whose service excellence was second to none. They greeted us & attended to us so graciously throughout the entire night. Then came the food. OMG, the Quiet Crabs, Flip a Bird & She Said!!! They were my favorites but when I tell you every ingredient was so intentionally paired that my palate was celebrating with every bite! I loved everything about this dining experience and will definitely be returning every time I'm in the city! What a beautiful evening!!! read more

I really hate leaving bad reviews. We had a party of 7. The service was just ok and the waitress started off fine but then had an attitude when we asked for our drinks whixh we could see where sitting on the bar for 10 minutes. It was an espresso martini and 2 bottles of champagne. Not a very complicated order and it sat for 10 minutes. This is where the attitude started. It was only one bottle of champagne so when we asked for rhe 2nd bottle she said o its coming. It's 7 people one bottle of champagne is done after you fill 5 glasses. The next bottle came 20 min later. The food was fine, portions could have been larger. The biggest issue came from the bill. When she arrived with the bill we asked was gratuity Included she said yes, no problem. They had a tap to pay option no printed receipt. When we paid they handed us a printed receipt whixh had the 20% gratuity like she said, however there was a other 20% charge for large party. So in total 40%, 40% is criminal! The never mentioned this, so almost half the bill was fees. If you are charging a crazy large party fee let people know and of so make sure the service matches that. Terrible business practice to charge a large party fee of 20%. read more
