The food is delicious. Loved the space and decor. Atmosphere was lively. Tables are large to accommodate family style dining, so if you're seated in the center of the room, it can be challenging to hear each other at your table.
It's requested to place your entire order all at once. Be prepared, after you place your order, all your food shows up almost immediately, like under 5 minutes. We felt a little overwhelmed, but settled into it...enjoying just about everything including the comically small 2.5 inch cube of bread for $14.
After all this upfront action, the service and our experience fell apart. We tracked down our under attentive waiter and ordered more rice to help offset the spicy heat of a couple dishes, took almost 15 minutes for a small bowl to arrive at our table. Never had an opportunity to order a second drink, so we ordered a desert to share. 20 minutes for a small sundae to arrive. Good, but not worth the wait.
All in all, we liked the food. Felt the pacing of the meal wasn't communicated well and the experience wasn't relaxing. The service after our initial order was extremely disappointing.

This place serves lab grown salmon from a jeff Bezos backed startup which wasn’t properly investigated by the FDA which isn’t really clear on the menu. Glad I knew that’s what wildtype was. Otherwise good

Incredible meal! We chose 8 plant based dishes to share with our friends, and each one was amazing and creative; every bite was a punch of flavor. I didn’t expect to love it as much as I did…am still thinking about the meal the next day. The dining room is gorgeous; service was impeccable. I would have liked better wine by the glasses choices. It wasn’t easy to get a reservation, but we are very grateful to have snagged one!

I’ve been a repeat diner at Kann since it’s opening, and have introduced and encouraged others to visit. This past Friday, August 8, may be my last time recommending or dining at the establishment.
I reserved a table for 6, but due to unforeseen circumstances, two of my guests had to cancel. I tried to call multiple times prior to our reservation to give notice of the party size change; calls are directed to voicemail. When we arrived for our reservation time, there was no mention of an impending fee.
I received an email from Resy the following evening, 8/9, notifying me that my card was charged $100 per restaurant policy. Come to find out, Kann made additions to the typical 24 hour cancellation policy: if your party size changes less than 24 hours before dining, you are charged $50 per guest not present.
Resy’s email noted that the charge is at the discretion of the restaurant. I immediately emailed Kann, explaining the circumstances (one guest was sick, the other had a delayed flight). I finally heard back from assistant GM Haley Hamilton, 72 hours later, who offered no flexibility or acknowledgement of the circumstances I outlined.
I’ve overlooked past instances of poor guest experience at Kann, including making guests wait outside in 100 degree heat due to arriving 5 minutes prior to the reservation time. But this particular experience has been disappointing, disrespectful, and I believe is in poor taste of what one would expect from an establishment like Kann. Imagine spending nearly $500 on a meal, and being charged $100 a day later. You’re telling me, if someone becomes ill, not only do you miss the meal, you have to pay $50 to the restaurant due to your illness? Is the restaurant that strapped for cash, that they must “nickel and dime” patrons after their meal?

All the food was amazing. The summer salad was so refreshing. They say the cauliflower is 7/10 spice and it's the spiciest thing they have, its really not that hot. We sat at the chef's counter which was fun, but loud.

Exquisite food and atmosphere. I especially loved the Wildtype salmon. The marinade was delicious, and the lemon vinaigrette was the perfect pairing. Great gluten-free options too.

Their Wildtype salmon was delicious! The other items on the menu did not disappoint either. They also had good gluten free and plant based options. I especially loved guava ice cream dessert.

Amazing food. Flavors I have never tasted before! Zack our server was so helpful and informative. Great experience.
So good! I'll definitely be back. Mel our server was amazing. I enjoyed it coming out in courses and they brought items that paired well. I wanted dessert but there was no room.

Genuinely one of the best restaurants I've ever been to. New flavors I wish could have for every meal, a new experience I can't wait to experience again. There's not much else I can say that others haven't said - at the end of the day you would be doing yourself a favor experiencing this beautiful food. The spice, the savory meat, the comforting soup, everything was amazing. Must visit spot!

Absolutely amazing food. Definitely my new favorite restaurant in the city.
I was very excited to try Con for the first time. My Husband and I are avid local foodies and heard so many wonderful things. So when we finally got a reservation and tried it, we were blown away with disappointment. The Hype of the restaurant is clearly social media fabrication. For the restaurants prestige and price point, the food was okay at best. The service was rude. I walked away so disappointed. I would not support this restaurant. Really sad to see places that get away with low quality because of their social media hype.
