Just had the best garlic and white wine mussels, perfect crab cake (no filler!), and tender, succulent scallops... Friendly, welcoming atmosphere and great service! I highly recommend The Rail Stop!

We have been eating on a regular basis at the Railstop for about 11 years. Our extended family frequents the restaurant for birthdays, anniversaries, and other holidays. The food is consistently excellent and the waitstaff like old friends. Love the Ravioli and the pork chop, my wife loves the crabcakes and the lamb. Outstanding!

Excellent food, friendly service, and a great atmosphere! After working for some of the best restaurants in DC for over 10 years it's tough to find a restaurant I can go to and actually just relax to enjoy my evening. The Railstop has yet to disappoint! They have always exceeded my expectations and my referrals expectations. It's well worth the drive out of the city when you need a change of pace, a friendly environment, and a happy staff serving great food!! 

Business response:

Thanks Ben!

In this case It's oddly satisfying proof that Tom and his crew are merely mortal after all. I've been eating there for 15 years and can honestly say I've had most of the best meals I've ever had in the United States at the Rail Stop ... the Steak, seafood, homemade bread, lamb, osso buco an Italian grandmother would weep for ... consistently superb! And the desserts! Wait, I do have a complaint... When are... read more
