We attend Kennedy Center performances regularly and eat here most times. Food is pricey but you get a healthy portion. Most times hot buffet food has been cold, but we keep trying. Crowded and noisy dining room but there are tables in the foyer and it is quieter there. Given the choices, this is the place we choose to eat before a performance for the convenience. We come for the entertainment -- not necessarily the food. Tonight the wine bar ran out of glasses so they are offering $10 glass of wine in plastic cups (similar to ballpark beer glasses).
