RT's Restaurant

A true neighborhood gem and food is excellent. From the oysters rockefeller , gumbo , jambalaya to the crab imperial nothing but lump Good Creole comfort food . If you're in the Mt. Vernon area and love

It looks like a hole in the wall but the food is great! Best Cajun I have found in the DC area...worth checking out.

The closest you can get to authentic Cajun food without having to travel to New Orleans! The shecrab soup was delicious!

Looks are very deceiving. This place actually has really good food. The She Crab Soup is really good

Shrimp and crab étouffée , I order this everytime .. Save room for any dessert ..Ohhh and don't forget to order a sazarac

Very good gumbo . Thee were a couple of other good things I want to try do I will be back.

Excellent food!! Food is very consistent and service great. soft shell crabs great, as well as gumbo and she-crab soup .

Always ask about their specials if they don't offer them.... They are usually the best part of the menu! Also, make sure you save room for coconut Melvin cake !

Crab soup is delicious, french fries is homestyle and yummy????

Smothered Catfish my main dish! Great pecan pie

Not bad but not memorable in my books . Dishes need a lot more flavor to claim they are Cajun. Service was good. Coconut cake was the highlight. I won't be back e rd

This place gets my personal coon ass seal of approval. Meh Sha dats good yeah. Death by Gumbo is ridiculously good and authentic . I should know.

Death by gumbo don’t miss it.

Tourist tip: Cajun/creole seafood deliciousness! Portions are huge, so keep that in mind if you want dessert .

I love the jambalaya !!!

The best Cajun/creole food in town . There smothered catfish is super yummy.

Calamari , Raw Oysters

Chic Chess Pie , yum

Great place to get some cajun! Lots of good food to choose from.

The gumbo is Awesome

Rocket Dog on tap ... Adding to the deliciousness.
