Food was outstanding including pork & lentil stew, chicken pot pie, butternut squash ravioli and scallops. Restaurant was caught short-staffed which made service slow. Although server did the best he could with a completely full restaurant.

This is our 2nd time at RPM. The first time was in Las Vegas and this time was in Washington DC. Both restaurants displayed excellent service and delicious meals. I had the meatball meal, superb and wife had the seafood prawns 🍤. Garlic bread was exceptionally tasty. This is one of favorite restaurants.
