RPM never disappoints! We first ate at their Chicago restaurant, and were excited to see one here in Washington DC while visiting. From the bread service to dessert the drinks and meals were outstanding! Can’t wait to try another one of their restaurants next time we are Chicago! They need to bring their restaurants and food to Tampa where I know others would go on a regular basis!

A patron was yelling at the server about the 3.5% service charge. A man at another table intervened and told the man he was embarrassing himself. They disrupted the entire restaurant including our table.

Our waiter was not attentive and couldn’t be found. He had guest at larger tables that seem to take up all his time. Loud argument happened during dinner that made for a very uncomfortable experience.

Did not have a great experience at all, we were put at a high top table and the service was not good. First, the wrong food was delivered to the table. Second, one entree had to be sent back as it was freezing cold. Lastly, my serve asked us to use a QR code for the bill and once that was paid and processed he ran to us saying they switched the bills with the table next to us and then had to void the first transaction and charge a second transaction for the correct bill. Would not return.
