Kinkead's
Kinkead's was located at 2000 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, and it quickly became one of the most popular restaurants in DC when it opened in October 1993. It was named one of the "25 best new restaurants in America" by Esquire Magazine. In 1996, the Mobil Guide awarded four stars to Kinkead's, one of only two restaurants in Washington to earn that distinction. In 1995, Bob Kinkead won the James Beard Award for "best American chef" in the Mid-Atlantic Region. Many politicians and celebrities ate at Kinkead's, including President Bill Clinton, Senator Ted Kennedy, and dancer Mikhail Baryshnikov; and many of Washington's best chefs trained there, including Logan Cox, Jeff Black, and Ris Lacoste.
In 2005, Bob Kinkead published a cookbook, Kinkead's Cookbook: Recipes From Washington D.C.’s Premier Seafood Restaurant. In James Patterson's novels, Kinkead's restaurant is a frequent dining and date spot for the character Alex Cross.
Kinkead's closed on December 22, 2012.
