Station Kitchen & Cocktails Washington DC

very cool spot, warm inviting great food and fun. what a great place in the city

We stayed at The Embassy Row Hotel a couple years ago and visited the Station Kitchen a couple times. The restaurant seating area is well designed and attractive, with a trendy and slightly chic decor. You can purchase coffee and light bites to eat in the morning which can be eaten at the restaurant or take-away if you want to bring back to your room. Made a couple additional visits to the Station Kitchen during our stay at the hotel. On one occasion, we visited during a late afternoon. Were told to take seat. Unfortunately, after a 15 minute wait in the outside seating area, it seemed nobody was going to serve us menus so we decided to go to the bar an order there instead. Found that the draught beer taps were out of order during our stay so we just enjoyed a round of bottled beers, an order of their herb fries, which were ok and left to eat at one of the area restaurants instead. Returned another evening during our stay and enjoyed a beer at the bar, where they were playing NBA playoff game. This was nice as the playoff games were not being shown in the television in our room. In the end, some awkward experiences at the Station Kitchen, similar to our bad luck with the Rooftop Bar during the time of our stay. Perhaps service staff were stretched at that time. Hopefully other guests will have better experiences with the Station Kitchen during their stays at The Embassy Row hotel.
