What MichaelB doesn't like about Ris Dc:
Ris has declined in quality since its previous visits. Despite being decent, it does not meet the high standards it once upheld. This was our second visit in the last 6 months and while it was enjoyable, it did not reach the level of excellence it used to have. View all feedback. What Mark likes about Ris Dc:
The food was lovely, the service warm and friendly, from everyone who helped us. It’s nice to see a place firing on all pistons after being around for 13 years. View all feedback.

Before I finished my MBA/MPH/MD at GW, we used to come here every day for lunch and most weekends for brunch.

Came here for brunch on Sunday and would agree with the current rating the restaurant has.

read moreRis has received mixed reviews in recent months, with some diners feeling that the restaurant has not lived up to its former standards. Poor service and disappointing food have left many customers feeling let down. However, there are still some shining moments at Ris, such as the excellent lunch options during DC Restaurant Week and the exceptional service from friendly staff members like Sam. The menu offers a variety of choices, with standouts like the crown of cauliflower and the fresh, beautifully presented brunch options. While Ris may not be a top choice for regular dining in DC, it is worth considering for special occasions or during events like Restaurant Week. The establishment's laid-back, high-quality approach to food may be just what some diners are looking for.
