Kat was an awesome server. She was friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable about the menu. My daughters (13&17) LOVED the food. My 17 year old was so excited when she told us they had muscles as a lunch special. I had the shrimp Norman and my...More
Fantastic little place to eat! Great food, music and staff. I highly recommend taking the time to stop in.
The waitress helped me order something that I really enjoyed and it was my first time trying. It was the crawfish etouffee!
To celebrate our 51st wedding anniversary Linda and I went to RT's Restaurant. Forbes Online rated this as one of the top 50 Southern Restaurants in the Country. When we arrived, we had to enter the Restaurant through the Bar, and were escorted to the...More
My husband and I ate here for lunch the other day. The Cajun food is always delicious. We like the 3D New Orleans scenes decorating the walls. Service is always solid. A unique gem in the DMV region.
Our friends RAVED about this place that turned out to be something of a dive-bar with a rather dated restaurant attached. The Cajun food was, at best, mediocre compared to anything I've had in NOLA, New York, Chicago or Lafayette. We opted for the special...More
The pro’s: the food was amazing I had the she-crab soup, steak, and chocolate mousse. All of it was well flavored and very good. The con’s: This place doesn’t know what it wants to be. It’s set up like a sports bar, prices and place...More
This is one of the best restaurants for Southern food in the DC area. It was recommended to us and I have to say it was worth the sort Uber there. The staff is great only match by the food offerings. The one draw back,...More
Stopped in after a long day. Great spot for some Cajun food. Not too spicy! Great pecan fried chicken, crab and shrimp etouffee (sp), gumbo and another crab and shrimp baked dished. Great waitress and cozy environment.
RTs is a local place for me. The location is near the Birchmere. The menu is a trip through great cajun dishes. The Oysters bienvilla appetizer is fantastic. As are the soups. The entres are big, the included sides make a great plate. The atmosphere...More
I have been visiting RT's for several years and it has never disappointed me when I'm in a mood for some authentic Cajun food. I usually get the Gumbo or Jambalaya and it is always spot-on. And if you are in the mood for dessert...More
Wonderful sea food with a strong influence of Cajun style cooking. This a very comfortable and casual restaurant but the food is first class. I have not tasted every dish but the ones I have tried brought back wonderful memories of eating on the Gulf...More
During a recent visit to Alexandria we went to this little, out-of-the-way restaurant based on some research I'd done before leaving home. Our Airbnb host gave us many restaurant recommendations, but said he'd never heard of RTs. Undaunted, we went ahead. The neighborhood was just...More
RTs is one of Alexandria's best restaurants. The ambience is not much but the food is so good and well cooked. The She Crab soup was absolutely wonderful. My burger was fine too and the accompanying fries were tasty. There is on the street parking....More
Enjoyed many good meals here, most recently my mom hosted dinner for my cousin from New Orleans. The Jambalaya, Shrimp and grits, Crab soup, and Bacon wrapped scallops were very flavorful. My cousin enjoyed her meal and gave it high mark's for freshness and taste....More
