Great Food. Obnoxious Staff
Isn't the restaurant industry all about customer service? Apparently David Winer doesn't think so. Although the food was exceptional at Merkado Kitchen, the staff at "the front of the house" was anything but. When I called to ask about the vintage of a certain wine on their wonderfully sourced (and priced) list, I was rudely told to "call back in an hour...I'm in the middle of something." Just yesterday I made reservations for a big group in person and the manager, acting annoyed, and barked orders at me, after acting as if he was doing me a favor. This area might be starved for good restaurants, but Merkado Kitchen will need a serious attitude adjustment in order to fit the bill.    [16 May 2005 21:44:06]

Great food and service
Maybe they read the earlier review. Anyhow, the service last night was excellent. The woman at the front door did her best to accommodate my wife and I, and get us a table during a very busy part of the evening. After an exceedingly minor incident where I was given a glass with a chipped rim, they credited me for my cocktail. The waiter was quick and knowledgeable without being pushy. Decor here is great.    [10 Jun 2005 07:50:45]

Great Food & Service
Super enjoyable spot with some of the most amiable service I've come across in quite some time. Menu is interesting and fairly priced. We enjoyed everything but loved the White Tuna Sashimi, the Whole Fish and the Blueberry Napoleon. Wine list is a bargain. Bonny Doon Telegram is a steal.    [28 Jun 2005 02:19:43]

Coolest Place in the Hood
Congrats to Winer, he's done it again. Best neighborhood restaurants in DC. The food was great, service was friendly and on the mark. Glass and a half of wine is a nice touch as well as the cool list of specialty drinks. We'll be back.    [16 Jul 2005 18:32:25]
