Pineapple and Pearls Washington Reviews from The Last Year
Disappointing, especially at this price point
I will divide my review into service, setting and food. The service was very attentive. The staff contributed to the “fun, happy” atmosphere that the restaurant is attempting to achieve. The setting was nice but a bit strange. The balloons along the ceiling were an effort to add to the party vibe. The “bubbles” that were blown when I was dispensing my own ice cream into a cup made me think that I was at a 5 year old’s birthday celebration, not a fine dining restaurant or a New Year’s Eve party. The Polaroid photo taken of me was another apparent attempt to give the evening a more party type of atmosphere. In the end, however, I go to a restaurant for the food, and there were some hits and misses. The “soufflé of the year,” Marco’s gnocchi and the 3 cheese ravioli were all hits, with the ravioli being the best. The Japanese Surf and Turf was a total miss; the surf (allegedly abalone) was not noticeable in any meaningful way, and the turf (Japanese beef shin) was WAY too salty. The LA style mezcal pineapple dessert was okay; the champagne and peach liqueur “gummie bears” that were served with it were a pointless addition from a food perspective, although maybe the intent was to enhance the “fun” part of the experience. The “gifts” presented at various times during the meal ranged from very good (koyo strawberry with cheese inside) to interesting (the beggar’s purses) to awful (Scott’s nachos). Overall, I would have to say that the food did not live up to my expectations. I normally don’t comment on the cost of a meal at a Michelin-starred restaurant, as I expect such a meal to be expensive, but in this case, I found the price point to be way out of line with the quality and quantity of the food served.
Cockroach in the private dining room
The private dining experience in the She Loves Me room is a disaster. The restaurant doesn't have the capacity/competency to facilitate an experience that comes anywhere near to matching the price point. There was a COCKROACH in the room that crawled up a guest's leg. When the guest jumped up, the cockroach scurried under the table and we had to go through the remainder of dinner with a loose roach in the room. We commissioned an expensive floral arrangement to be set as the centerpiece for dinner, but the Pineapple & Pearls team (inexplicably) disassembled it so we were left with just a few sparse flowers haphazardly placed on the table and the room looking like a raggity hostel lobby. Dining service took over 4 hours. We were sat at 8:30 and, even after asking to rush through the final courses because of the cockroach, were not able to leave until after 12:30 am. After detailing our disappointment at length and waiting several weeks, Pineapple and Pearls took 10% off our bill. I was mortified to host an event here - highly recommend choosing one of the other many fabulous Michelin star restraurants in DC.
COVID has taken it's toll
Wow..Pineapple and Pears has lost a step in their post COVID incarnation. My wife and I have been to P&P pre-COVID several times and we totally blown away. Last Saturday was completely underwhelming. First, there attempt at a hip retro vibe did not add to the experience. The techno music was so loud that normal conversation was not possible. We were there for the food. It started out hopeful, the welcome cocktail was excellent. The amuse was amazing. It goes downhill from there. The first was a souffle which was good but far from great, not 2 Stars. The second was gnocchi that was fair but was in a very heavy garlic cream sauce that was overpowering. Third was a "Japanese" braised shank the that was basically Korein barbeque. Again, good but not very interesting. The desert I had was their rainbow sorbet which was just that a selection of citrus sorbets. Not very inspired. Their major fail was some kind of a stuffed taco thing that was served cold (not intentionally) and was uneatable. I've had better frozen /microwave horderves at office parties. This is no longer a Michelin restaurant in my book and at their price point we will not go back.

Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.

Working on your bid? |
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.

Give the best answerVirtual Name & Email on reservation
Hi Community,
I am new to this site and just recently bought a reservation here. I noticed that on the reservation page, it is booked under a random name and a virtual email address.
I can't find any button to change either the name or the email for this reservation I bought. So, should I just say that random name when I arrived at the restaurant? Not really sure about the procedures.
