RPM Italian - DC

“We were there five of us for dinner at a conference. Excellent service and great food! I had wild mushroom risotto and a very fine Italian wine the name i forgot! Very tasty and just the right portions. Had pistachio Gelato for dessert. Tasty but felt very light. Overall very good! Will be back sone time.”

“First time here and certainly not our last. This place was remarkable. Our server, Henry, was phenomenal! The food was cooked to perfection and you didn't have to wait too long for it to come to your table. Another option is the bar. The dining room is for a more intimate setting and the bar area seems more lively. They also have tables over there too.”

“Superb! Both the food and service were excellent. The grilled octopus was the best I have ever had. Everyone truly enjoyed it. Two on our table ordered from the gluten free menu. They said the best gluten free chicken parm and the best glue free eggplant parm ever. Sul was our waiter and took great care of our table. Will definitely come back every time we come to the AWS conference.”

“The food, atmosphere and service is exceptional. Our server was excellent, adding a little drama to our meal. The wine list was extensive. We had the Prawns, Branzino, Shrimp Scampi, and Eggplant Parmesan. All fresh, well seasoned and flavorful. Topping the dinner off with the Roasted Pistachio Gelato and the 14K Chocolate Cake. What an absolutely wonderful dinner experience 😋.”

“One of my favorite restaurants in DC. Still like the vibe, music and decor in the bar and main restaurant area. Been here many times since my last review eight years ago. Their happy hour is really good, so if you are in the area during those times, I would definitely go to the bar area. For appetizers, I usually get their Wagyu Beef Carpaccio - it is one of the best ones I've had. Other standouts are their Shredded Brussel Sprouts - this dish made me actually like Brussel sprouts-lol. This has avocado, toasted breadcrumbs, and pickled peppers and the Truffled Garlic Bread - so good. For main dishes, my daughter just raves about their Maine Lobster Ravioli. She loves this dish so much. It's the only dish she orders. Actually, you can't go wrong with any of their pasta dishes - Spicy Dungeness Crab, Short Rib Bolognese and Mama DePandi's Bucatini. Other mains we really enjoy is their Prime Dry-Aged Bistecca Fiorentina - this can feed two people, and it's priced at $175, but I think it's worth it. Steak is really good. Also, I really liked their Mediterranean Branzino. Cocktails are great, especially their Old Fashioned. Service has always been top notch here. Can't wait until RPM Steak opens in downtown DC later this year!”
