Video FeedBack: 8407 Kitchen Bar

It has also attracted the attention of Washingtonian food and wine editor Todd Kliman, who back in April saw potential for the neighborhood restaurant to “grow into something good and maybe special.” Has it lived up to his predictions? We caught up with a few diners to get their take.
