We went for brunch on New Year’s Day. The food was delicious, unfortunately the service and pace of dishes was not their best. Our server was new, shy, or had lost her voice (or a combination of all three), and the menu was new, so there was confusion right from the start. We chose the all you can eat/bottomless drinks option. We tried to order things dim sum style, two dishes each at a time but were told we could only order one at a time each. Because of that, there was a huge lag time between finishing one plate and having our order taken for the next plate, which led to more time taken. And during this our drinks remained empty after finishing our first. We had to speak to the supervisor to get refills and she ended up giving us a carafe. If we’d wanted different drinks, we’d never have gotten what felt like a bottomless brunch experience. It’s a Kimpton hotel eatery, so it’s adorable, just pace yourself as the bathrooms are a small walk away. It was meant to be an 80s themed brunch, but the music didn’t really stay on theme, and the food/drink wasn’t themed at all. We probably won’t be back for brunch again, The all you can eat option would work better as a tasting menu, offering the dishes in sequence and then anything you’d like to revisit. That would probably help the pace of service so there’s no waiting between small plates. During our visit, we spoke to a supervisor and another unsatisfied table spoke to a manager, so if this is a try at something new, they still have a few things to work out.

Great food with a fabulous patio. The restaurant is hidden within the neighborhood so it was pretty quiet. The drinks were sophisticated with great flavor. The food was perfect tapas size portions for two people. Ended the evening with smores!

An excellent menu and great service. The tator tots with gorgonzola and the sea bass were different and exciting. We came for the dessert and the ice cream sundae options did not disappoint, with multiple flavors of ice cream, sauces and toppings.

This place is an absolute must when visiting D.C. Tucked away in the Mason &Rook hotel... but not your typical hotel bar. Vernon, the bartender is amazing... perfect drinks and i love his energy. The staff is so pleasant. Breakfast was filling, tasty..try the Radiator breakfast if you're famished. But dessert was the best...Death by chocolate😍😍😍... thank you! ~CMathes

Radiator is phenomenal! Every dish we ate had a unique spin on it, and it's clear that a lot of thought goes into these dishes. For apps, the croquetas were the best I've had, and the lamb belly tacos were really creative and delicious. We then had the Spaghetti Squash Carbonara, which is something I typically wouldn't order, but it was great. The spaghetti squash was perfectly done. Purple Sweet Potato Gnocchi is also a must have! The duck was probably our favorite, but everything was so good it was hard to decide. Drinks and desserts are amazing as well. Highly recommend checking out Radiator!

Great cocktails and food! The bartender was awesome and made great martinis. It didn't feel at all like a hotel restaurant.

Chapter 1 The man in black fled across the desert and the gunslinger gave chase. Suddenly a door appears before the hurried men and suddenly it opens. The man in black thrusts himself thew the doorway, given no hesitation or pause and lands upon a cold surface. He quickly notices the desert heat has been replaced by a colder climate and that they have traded worlds again. With a loud thud, a second body appears in this new place. Without hesitation, the gunslinger draw his revolvers and aims them at our man in black and barks " Halt son of the devil ! I reckon it was a matter of time...or may haves a perspective till i got you in my my sights. By the eyes of Cort !" Suddenly a third man appears and bellows to the 2 " Hi, my name is Daniel. Can I help you two?" The gunslinger keep his eyes locked onto his feared opponent while sweat rolls down his haggered face , flowing along the features of the gunslingers face like a horse to the road. Its then thar Roland yells for Daniel to leave. " Uh, well I can't. I'm the manager and I just want to make sure you 2 gentlemen are taking care of " responds Daniel, unusually confident. The Man in Black is intrigued and whispers " Roland, you old fool, let him speak. Let us hear the tales of Daniel, son of...?" Daniel chuckles nervously and said.." son of my father..Ron...and well, maybe I should tell you about our awesome specials at Radiator?" Chapter 2 The food at Radiator brought a smile to the old gunslinger as well as his mortal enemy, the Man in black . They especially loves the breakfast tacos
