My wife and I were in the city for an appt, and before getting back on the train home, we were looking for a nice lunch. Let me tell you what, DK Restaurant delivered!!! The food, fantasitic...from the Kitchen Salad....ok...record scratch...all you readers are probably saying, "How good can a salad be?"...it was light, fresh, and appropriately dressed....not oozing with the dressing like many other places. Plenty of salad to share for two. Next up, Baked Little Neck clams...for all my cuginis or seafood fans...Clams Orreganato...envision a rolling flavor profile from seasoned bread crumb & clam, to the garlic/lemon/olive oil sauce to then a crisp finish of parsley...every single bite with the same multitude of flavors....main courses now...my wife went with the Filet Mignon cheesesteak sandwich...she swapped the pimento cheese for American cheese...nicely portioned even if I were eating it (she couldn't finish it)...I had a special which was Veal Scallopini with marsala sauce....delectable (those not fans of veal,I get it...to each there own just scroll by)....sides of brussels w/bacon, onion rings...they are on other restaurant menus but unique in their own right at DK...wines by the glass recommended by our server Oscar, wonderful! Oscar and the service team...appropriately attentive, never too frequent, never too infrequent, knowledgeable, FANTASTIC!!! We finished things off with espresso and a little Frangelico. The decor (which maybe should be a first impression,but I wanted to talk about the food and service team first) is warm, inviting, intimate yet cozy!!!
Folks....if you are in the neighborhood of W. 36th Street, you should give DK a serious consideration and a try!!!
To our new friends @ DK...
Sincerely,
Traci and Mike from West Jersey
