Review by Bryce

November 05, 2024

The Kitchen American Bistro offers a cozy vibe right on Pearl Street. I had brunch here, and the service was prompt and friendly, making the busy atmosphere feel welcoming. The highlight was definitely the French fries - crispy and perfectly seasoned, they're a must-try! I also enjoyed a delightful burrata starter with fresh basil and sweet peaches, a lovely combo.

While not every dish hit the mark, the attentive staff and inviting patio made for an enjoyable dining experience. I'd definitely return for more... 🍽️
