    It was our first time dining at RPM Italian and it did not disappoint! From the moment we walked in to the moment we left was top notch. All the staff were friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable. The drinks and food were outstanding. Make sure to get the meatballs as an appetizer and the carrot cake for dessert!! The meals are perfect portions for sharing with everyone at the table.

    This is our favorite place in the city for many reasons. The drinks, the food, the look and feel of it, but the number one reason we keep coming back is the people who work at RL. It was a wildly busy evening this last time we came in and while many would have folded, the team went out of their way to take care of us. And that’s what sets this place apart. You’re cared for here. We were listened to and made comfortable. It ended up being a wonderful evening all thanks to obviously the food and drink, but mainly each employee we came in contact with. Come for the lush martinis, the perfect dover sole, the rich wood and dim lights but keep coming back for the people.
