But this isn’t just a tasting…We want your palate at the table.

The menu moves with the season.

The bright, delicate flavors of summer begin to give way to the deeper, richer ingredients of fall, each course evolving with what’s at its best right now.

A new season at Kappo is taking shape. October reservations are now open and November reservations are coming.

Not all beef melts. Wagyu does.

Its signature marbling melts as it cooks, creating the rich flavor, delicate texture, and buttery finish Wagyu is known for.

Kappo DC it’s the thread that runs through the experience, prepared in different ways throughout the evening to showcase just how special one ingredient can be.

A new season is taking its seat at the counter.

The case for a caviar pairing:

Add the caviar and uni pairing to your Kappo experience for an added layer of richness throughout the meal. The briny salinity of caviar and buttery sweetness of uni are thoughtfully paired to complement the flavors of each course, creating moments of contrast, texture, and umami along the way.

Not necessary. Very worth it.

Not your average bowl of chirashi.

Our chirashi layers seasoned sushi rice with tender ribeye, eel, pickled ginger, and sansho peppercorn for a course that’s the perfect balance of rich and bright.

This is what dinner looks like from the front row.

Eight courses, 21 seats, and every cut, sear, and finishing touch happening right in front of you. “Kappo” translates to “cut and cook,” a style of Japanese dining where the craft and interaction are just as much a part of the experience as what lands on your plate.

The counter only has 21 seats. Make one of them yours. October reservations are open now.

Something sweet to end the evening: Melon Anmitsu.

A play on the classic Japanese dessert, layered with honeydew kanten jelly, azuki bean paste, mochi balls, yuzu syrup. and honeydew sorbet.

Cool, bright, and just sweet enough. Summer, plated the Kappo way.
