    Our server was impeccable. very knowledgeable. There was a family next to us but one person in the party was extremely loud and disruptive. Tainted a very quaint evening for me and my wife. I did not wanted to ruin the moment, but wished someone would have said something to assist him with toning it down. I highly recommend the Bronzino. We also ordered the pre fixe. Great price for the food, service, and ambiance.

    I have enjoyed numerous meals at RT’s and they are consistently of high-quality. RT’s has superior service, a wonderful ambience, soft music in the background so you don’t have to raise your voice and exhaust yourself speaking. The restaurant is always festively decorated for every season/holiday of the year. It’s clear that the managers/owners take extraordinary pride in and care of their restaurant. Last but not least, the food is exceptionally delicious and well-presented every time! And while you might just drive past this wonderful restaurant on Mount Vernon Ave. in Alexandria, without noticing, it is truly a gem. It deserves a few Michelin stars.
