I want to like Kitchen33 for a lot of reasons. First, unrelated to this business effort, I miss the previous restaurant in this space (Debbie's Kitchen) and really hoped something similar would land here. Second, while politics and social involvement have no place on yelp, I have to acknowledge that I appreciate Kitchen33's involvement in cutting down on restaurant waste and using their proceeds for protecting waterways. That said, as much as I appreciate the owners and the location, I want to evaluate them solely on the restaurant effort. Kitchen33 has a simple menu that belies the work that goes into some of the dishes. They have several smoked / barbecued meats on offer, as well as more traditional salad and sandwich offerings (we were not ther in time for breakfast, but will try soon.) The food we got was as good as expected or even better. Certainly the spoonbread was YUMMY. And the house-made pastrami was as good as can be expected form most restaurants but not as good as I would expect for being house made. When I say steak and cheese to you you probably envision thin cut strips of ribeye, piled moderately high. The steak and cheese here is apparently smoked brisket. It was too heavily smoked for my wife's taste, but within the limits for me. A good sandwich, probably better than I expected, but a better menu description would have kept me from ordering something heavier than I actually received. It was fine. Service was slooooow. 45 minutes between order and food kind of slow. Friendly. Nice. Apologetic every 10 minutes. But slow. 'Nuf said. Kitchen33 is open most days breakfast and lunch only, with a dinner menu on Friday and Saturday. To get more frequent business from me, they will need to open more evenings. Worth a return try. read more
