Delicious and unique dishes. The waitress didn't offer us coffee with dessert, nor grated cheese.. and she didn't tell us the drinks offered on the happy hour selections. So we ended up spending more money for "happy hour" drinks than we expected.

Great experience at KotB. It was everything we wanted: tasty upscale food, good cocktails, and a fun server for dinner. We really enjoyed and will be back with more friends so they can experience it. It may be our new neighborhood “place”.

We have been fans of Ray's now Kitchen on The Bend since moving out here a couple years ago. They have gone through a couple iterations but the food is always consistently great. They seem to be changing up their menu and trying new items (Rustic Italian of late) and it is excellent. Pair that with a good wine list and its a great date or even big party place. The bar has become busy again with live music which sometimes I think can have an effect on the dining room noise but all in all not anything to worry about. The staff is always great and super accommodating. Give KotB a try for sure!

We had not dined here before. We looked at the menu online and specifically wanted to try the brick oven pizza. We arrived and found out that the menu had changed. The restaurant has a brick oven but doesn’t offer pizza any longer. Please update the online menu. We had to ask the waitress for bread. It was early & the restaurant wasn’t full and we had to wait “for it to come out of the oven”. The waitress then proceeded to bring a saucer of oil so full it spilled on the table. There was no attempt to clean until we asked. There were also very few follow ups to check up onus. We both ordered pasta, and it was only fair. My Alfredo actually had big clumps of noodles. This was one of the worst dining experiences we have had in a while.
