Kapnos Kouzina - Bethesda

The restaurant was closed without any notice on Open Table. We showed up with a party of seven for our reservation, but the doors were shut and no reasons were provided.

I had a reservation for January 30, 2018 at Kapnos Restaurant. Unfortunately, I found out that Kapnos went out of business 4 days prior to my reservation and no one informed me. Neither Kapnos nor Open Table, who still shows Kapnos as open in Bethesda, contacted me to give me a heads up. Now they are asking me to confirm my reservation and leave a review for a restaurant that is no longer in business. This is very disappointing and reflects poorly on their credibility. Please stop this misleading information.

We came to check out the restaurant for the first time, only to find out that it had permanently closed. Despite no mention of this closure on their website when I checked in the late afternoon, and even though OpenTable reminded us of our reservation, we were disappointed to see that it had shut down 5 days earlier.

Another great lunch! The salmon taco is delicious (I ordered a side of feta to go with it and it was amazing. I was there two weeks ago, a couple of days ago, and I can't wait to go back again.

I previously went to the Kapnos on 14th St for brunch which was great. Unfortunately, I will not return to the one in Bethesda. The service was terrible. It took several requests for our drinks to arrive; they came after almost all of our food. At the same time, the waiter continued to try to take our plates away when we were not done (and the restaurant wasn't busy to try to turn over the table). The waiter also did not properly explain the drink specials, and we received a bill much larger than intended given the poor explanation. Finally, I got super sick from the food for several hours after brunch. Big disappointment for an expensive meal.
