Spectacular. Each and every detail of every morsel of every bite has been thoughtfully chosen and beautifully prepared. The staff, including the sommelier, are incredibly personable and made us feel like we were part of the family. We cannot wait to go back. Simply unbelievable.

What a wonderful place to celebrate a special occasion and to start off our vacation for the first night ! If you are a foodie, this is your place!. It was so much fun letting them surprise us with different things we would have never tried on our own. My husband has had stomach surgery so he cant e...

This place is not really convincing for European tastes. Food combination without interest, too salty, too sweet; informal is fun but.... paper towels?, basic cutlery and fair, efficient service - not once have we been asked if we liked the food, far too noisy. Not quite going back

As expected with a Michelin star restaurant, the dining experience was superb. We were able to get a last minute reservation for a random weekday based on their availability online. They promptly followed up via email and made sure to consider any food allergies or preferences we had. They also veri...

My husband and I LOVED Komi. It was our first Michelin restaurant experience, and we were blown away by the ambience of understated elegance, the ever-attentive service, and the out-of-this-world delicious Greek-inspired food. There were about twelve delicious courses with a capstone course of fall-...

Unbelievable experience. Wife and I took a quick trip to DC, with a last minute trip we didn't really think about reservations for places until it was too late. We managed to sneak a 9pm booking on a friday here and it was hands down the best experience of the weekend (and top 5 in my life).

Komi deserves every bit of praise it receives. Food is inventive, unique, exquisitely presented, and delicious. Flavors you wouldn't think to pair are expertly presented as perfect complements. The space is simple yet elegant; minimalist and comfortable. Service is out of this world. Abundantly frie...

Quite an incredible experience to eat at Komi. The dishes are consistent with a Greek-ish theme but are so creative and unique that it's a little difficult to put them into any category beyond high cuisine. The set menu provides many many dishes that arrive in quick succession. Each is a small bite ...

Best dining experience in DC. Service is highly attentive; your wine and water glass look perpetually full. Food is incredible and keeps coming if you are up for the challenge. Delightful and will go back (if I can snag a reservation).

An incredible intimate dinning experience with some of the most passionate and animated descriptions of wine I've ever heard. So make sure you get the matching wines!

Delicious adaptions of Mediterranean flavors with excellent (and friendly) service that makes Komi an unforgettable experience.

The most ridiculous meal I had in my entire life. Some tasty bite size appetizers, pasta and pork (main course) were too salty and too basic. Other dishes- nice flavors but nothing mind blowing. Extremely boring long process of waiting for the next dish to come. This place is classy but plain. Dinn...

Amazing dining experience. Went here with family for my wife's birthday, for their 'Happy Gyro' special. Everything was vegetarian and everything was excellent! Great creative drink pairings too. Amazing service. Definitely a 'must visit' restaurant for a special occasion.

Anyplace that does not publish their menu and prices is a red flag for a place I would never would go to. It's like, they think they are so great they don't have to. That's just marketing hype for gullable fools. Get real people! Tell us what you serve. It's just food.

Excellent service, delicious dishes! The menu is fixed, with more than 10-12 plates that create a real culinary experience. Everything, from starters to deserts was a piece of art. Highly recommended, especially for Greek and Mediterranean cuisine lovers!

Until now I have eaten in various restaurants in the world, but it is a restaurant with a high level of scrambling to enter the top 3. I definitely think that it is the top restaurant in Washington DC. I asked for pairing of champagne and wine, but all the courses made me excited by the taste and te...

My first visit in about 8 years. My LAST. Food has changed very little. TINY bite sized dishes. Most are so small that 4 servings fit on a small plate. Amberjack fish came undercooked with lots of bones. The new lamb neck was greasy and not edible. The ingredients are far cheaper than they used...

Ho. Ly. Bleep. We actually got a reservation to KOMI and had a ridiculous meal. We had the braised goat (for 2) when we went with a variety of other appetizers and loved everything about it. If you can get a reservation, you're in for a treat.

This is a place where folks go to feel extra uppity and have $500 to waste on bite-size dishes just so they can look cool on Instagram and appear classy/sophisticated . If you re truly hungry and you re smart with your money, I suggest paying $7 for a gyro at a local mom and pop Greek joint.
