Best Cajun Restaurants in Falls Church

First, would I recommend this place? Yes! Not only is the service great but the bartenders, waitress and chefs work as a team. Julian the bartender has a great personality and kept my family and I laughing throughout our time. To add, we never felt unseen even though it was a full house. Great dishes as well! We went with their suggested favorites but we will be back. Also it’s in a great location. We parked in the garage and it was a short walk to the front door. I would rate it 10/10.

It was good food and service. I highly recommend you trying it.

Food was amazing we got the Pan Seared Salmon and Cajun pasta and then the biscuit to start and literally everything was delicious and the service was great. We were seated quickly and received our food quickly

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.

My goodness, the roux--it is perfect, making the gumbo the best I've had outside of NOLA and H-town in years. That alone made the meal. Also loved the hush puppies (who knew). For my main the pork tender was perfectly cooked and beautifully matched with mustard cream. My friend had the short rib, which I tried and loved. The only misfire was the strawberry shortcake, which was too sweet, breading too dense, and only one strawberry. My friend's bread pudding was superb. The service was excellent, water refilled consistently, food arrived at a nice pace. Kudos to Dauphine's, I'll be back with a cajun spring in my step. Thank you!
