Ris In Wash - Calumet-Norvelt

Nice atmosphere and decor We all really liked our meal. Gino, our server, was wonderful and went above and beyond to accommodate all our requests. Thank you Gino!

Our server overheard my wife ask out loud what are they known for and he answered good food . Right answer. There with a friend for RW and very impressed. First for the generosity of the RW menu (not just chicken or salmon, although available) but the quality of the dishes. They make the most of the space at the ground floor of an office bldg. with natural lighting. Based on this would go back for a special occasion.

Everything about this place was fantastic. The waiter was more than helpful and knew his way around the menu. They were courteous and asked us if we had any dietary restrictions or allergies and kept that in mind when we ordering. The food was phenomenal and the portion sizes were generous. I opted for the fries and the grilled shrimp to start and both were great. For the entree I was recommended the Chicken Milanese and it was prepared perfectly. For dessert I had the Lime Miroir, which was a perfect combination of flavors and followed the entree well.

Ris stands at the top of restaurants in DC where the chef is really present and works the restaurant. Mustard salmon to die for with beautiful pomegranate accents and the spinach and feta salad with great dressing flavors, followed by ice cream and cookies. Skip the pretentious chef upscale restaurants and come for the food be it the salmon, snapper or things to ponder. Highly recommended.

What a great restaurant. We were with a group of Red Cross Volunteers on the Following the Footsteps of Clara Barton tour. Our food and service was outstanding. I had the Olive Oil Soup, Braised Beef Spareribs, and warm strawberry Rhubarb Crostata. Everything was perfect and delicious. I understand that the owner is a reward winning woman chef.
