Gave Rh Bistro a chance and not sure if we will go back. We were shown to a table that had an ipad sitting on it for ordering. When I picked it up I realized it had a pretty dirty screen with some greasy fingerprints. Not a comfortable feeling that I had to order thru the screen that previous customers had used. Dishes we ordered included the scallion pancake (tasty but quite greasy), Tibetan cumin lamb (very good flavor for the lamb but ordered mild and it came loaded with hot peppers), braised eggplant and green beans ( the best of the four items ordered, seasoned nicely and the green beans were cooked the right amount to be slightly chewy and flavorful), and Vegetable chow fun (came in a substantial puddle of soy sauce after we checked the box for less soy sauce!). Our service person seemed to be the only person serving all the customers in our section of the restaurant. Our third entree followed the other two by at least 10 minutes. Only after I could find our server and could inquire did we learn they still had it in the kitchen and had not brought it out. Also, we never did get a refill of our water glasses. read more

I can't remember the last time I had crab and pork soup dumplings this flavorful. The traditional way to eat them is to carefully transfer a dumpling to your spoon, poke a small hole in the xiaolongbao, slurp out the soup, drizzle a little black vinegar over the dumpling to cut through the richness, and then eat the rest. They are very delicate, so often, the soup will spill. We also ordered the sizzling beef with onion, braised eggplant with green bean, snakehead fish filet with pickled vegetable soup, and spicy beef tripe. Every dish exceeded our expectations. My mom, who's notoriously picky about eating out, even gave the meal her stamp of approval. We were a little thirsty a few hours after the meal, which isn't uncommon with more heavily seasoned dishes. Even so, it was worth it. They also offer a discount if you're Tsinghua alumni or if you pay in cash. Also, the interior was stunning! read more

Location requires parking and validation and such. Keep track of your license place before leaving your car! You need to do validation through a QR code which is posted on the entrance door. Don't be like me and run back to your car because you can't remember your license plate. The wine glasses are misleading. They only carry beer here. The food is okay. For the price, I think it's priced much higher than comparable places. This place has the interior for a nice date though. It's clean and the ambient lighting works well. But the food quality, you can get elsewhere for a better deal. Service was good when we were here. Not too many people were here for dinner when we came here. But the parking lot was a mess. I personally would recommend the dry pot Cauliflower. That was decimated by the table in a heartbeat. read more

Rh Bistro - Shanghainese Near Me - Falls Church, Virginia

I ordered through UberEats for my friends and I. The order was missing a few things but I'll reserve this review for the food specifically. I was really excited to try this place out since I've been meaning to for a while now. Unfortunately everything from the lo mein to the fried rice to the orange chicken was super bland. The texture of the orange chicken also was a bit off. For example, in the picture attached, you can tell on the left is chicken meat. I have no clue what's on the right...maybe orange coated fat or breading? Half of the container was chicken meat, half was whatever is pictured. I had high hopes for this place because of all the reviews but I probably won't order from RH Bistro again. read more

Rh Bistro - Orange Chicken - Shanghainese Near Me - Falls Church, Virginia

This is place is pretty good for a nicer dine in Chinese restaurant! So expect the prices to be a bit higher than a more casual place. I have been here a few times and my favorite dish is probably the crab tofu. This time we got mapo tofu, west lake beef soup, cucumbers, and beef tripe. I love how flavorful all the sauces and seasonings are! You can also choose the level of spice you want. The waiters were kind but it can be hard to find someone and seemed to really only check in towards the end of your meal. You get a 5% discount if you pay with cash. It was a little strange how they only had quarters to give me for some change though... overall I recommend! read more

They're amazing! 1. Always empty so don't need to make a reservation. But I do want them to stay open, so people check them out! 2. Food: excellent People who know me well know that I don't go for Chinese meal as my first option but food here is legit! Naming convention here is a bit off, - For example what we call Dan dan noodle the thick noodle awesomeness is called pad Thai here, makes no sense but try it! - general tsao chicken is okay - lamb noodle dish is amazing, it comes hot one time and it was a cold dish the next time. I was surprised. Bur both were amazing! But they do need to be consistent if they wanna last long 3. Hot tea is good and comes in a pot which is something I love. They have no liqueur license yet. 4. Service: amazing! They recognized me when showed up after 2 weeks! Very polite, accommodating and genuinely nice! 5. Ambiance: very inviting, clean and well structured. Great for big groups, lots of private rooms for business dinner etc. Highly recommend! read more

Saw this Chinese restaurant on IG and it looked too tempting not to try. Finally got the chance--and ended up going twice in a row! The food was incredible, the staff super friendly, and the whole place had such a great vibe. We ordered the Sichuan Chongqing pepper chicken--super spicy and a bit on the salty side, so definitely ask them to adjust it to your taste. The Dan Dan noodles reminded me of creamy peanut butter noodles --pretty good if you're a peanut butter lover. The Red Oil Pork Dumplings were my favorite! They look spicy, but the heat is very manageable. read more

We went for lunch and overall was a pleasant experience. We were during the earlier hours - service was definitely more attentive at the start (when there were less tables). Recommend the servers try more of the menu. When asking for recommendations, two different servers could only tell us what other people order vs what they liked. When we went the restaurant also did not have their liquor license yet, but sounded like that was coming soon. The main dishes are mostly authentic and tasted good. Dim sum options were just ok - soup dumplings lacked soup and scallion pancake tasted like it was from a package. Also disappointing was a pot of tea comes with a tea bag rather than loose leaf tea. Room for improvement, but once the restaurant has been fully open and stabilized, we'll be back to try it again. read more

I was craving soup dumplings and came across this place. Unfortunately when I arrived alot of menu items weren't available including soup dumplings :(. We ended up ordering the orange chicken, beef brisket with enoki mushroom soup and pan fried pork dumplings and everything was delicious! All the food were solid and nothing to complain about. The beef brisket with enoki mushroom soup reminded me of non spicy malatang and it even had glass noodles in it which was a nice surprise. The restaurant is big and spacious, and the service was good. I'll definitely be back to try the soup dumplings next time! read more

RH Bistro has been high on our list to try and we finally gave it a try tonight. My wife ordered family style, knowing what our daughter and I like. The food was Sichuan spicy for all our dishes, and that is a very good thing. The cumin lamb was very bold with the slices, moreso than at other Sichuan restaurants. The lamb was very tender and sliced thin. The Sichuan Chongqing pepper chicken (similar to Lazi chicken at other restaurants) was fried crispy with numbing pepper oil and covered in hot peppers for a very incredibly good flavor that I couldn't stop eating. We also ordered crispy Mandarin fish with Sichuan pepper as well. The fish comes with sprigs of numbing peppers and a Sichuan numbing pepper forward taste. I wasn't a fan of the texture of the fish, however the flavor was really good. My wife and daughter loved the fish. Service was fast and attentive, refilling our waters often and bringing our food very quickly and hot from the kitchen. I will definitely be back, especially after being so satisfied from having all my favorite dishes! read more

Rh Bistro has good food and ambiance! It looks clean, modern, and luxurious inside. I ordered the signature mala dry pot, sweet and sour crispy tilapia, crab and pork soup dumplings, and the kung pao cashew jumbo shrimp. I would recommend all of those dishes besides the shrimp dish (which is a more Americanized dish). The dry pot comes sizzling in a pot similar to a stir fry with a mix of different proteins. The sweet and sour tilapia was perfect and was nicely deboned (with minor small fish bones). I would definitely get both of these dishes again to share! I went on a Friday night where they were pretty busy, but the service was still good. read more

I've been on the hunt for good Szechuan food in the area, but everything kept falling short... until now. Oh, hello, RH Bistro! Let's start with my ultimate test: the mapo tofu. I always judge a Szechuan restaurant by this dish, and RH Bistro nailed it. I ordered it extra spicy (because why not?) and it was absolute perfection - not too oily, not too soupy, with that magical mix of numbing spice, chili heat, cornstarch-thickened sauce, and silky tofu. It hit every note. The popular Szechuan Pepper Chicken (yep, extra spicy again) totally lived up to the hype -- crispy, flavorful, and addictive. To cool things down, we added some sautéed bok choy, which were fresh, vibrant, and a nice break from the heat. And I can't forget the pork dumplings with red oil - those little pockets of happiness were so good I could've eaten the whole plate myself. Next time, I'm bringing a bigger crew so I can sample more of the menu. RH Bistro, you've officially raised the Szechuan bar around here. read more

The restaurant is large and quite pretty! It was not busy on a Thursday dinner time but did see quite a few take out orders being prepped so maybe people prefer that here than the restaurant. Waiters were nice but a bit slow One big thing though is they no longer sell the soup dumplings! I saw lots of reviews here were for it so actually that was my main reason to come but was not on the menu and when I asked they apologized and said they don't have it anymore Mapo tofu - comes in a lot more jelly like sauce but I liked it! The tofu is extremely silky and soft. The sauce is numbing but it's not overwhelming and adds the floral flavor! I think only once we were about halfway through the numbing did kinda build but not unpleasantly. They also offered to rice which was necessary 3/5 Red oil dumpling - don't be fooled by the red color or that it's called oil! It's more like a very deeply flavored broth that can be eaten on its own! Spicy but not numbing and very good. The skin of the dumpling is silky and soft! The only Thing I wish was the meat inside the dumpling was a little less dry. Even with it being slightly dry, super delicious 4/5 read more

A 3-3.5 stars for me. I was super excited for this place after seeing their menu. My sister made a reservation for 7 here on a Friday at 6 pm. We got one of the private rooms. When we got to the restaurant, there was no one at the front and it took a while for someone to come greet us and show us a table. We were shown to a room that had unique chairs but was only set up for 5 people. Someone's purse was still there and the host said that a previous group had switched tables. I didn't love that because I'm not sure if anyone drank from the water glasses already. The brought out the rest of the place settings in a little. I liked the idea of a private room, but honestly, you're better off sitting at a regular table. There was absolutely no service. I get that a lot of the old school restaurants don't have great service, but we didn't see anyone after getting our food. It was a little ridiculous. We had to furiously wave at someone to try to get their attention. We ordered a total of 9 dishes thinking we'd have a ton of leftovers. But honestly, we didn't. Portion sizes are kind of small, and my parents/sister really don't eat too much. We ordered 2 pork belly dishes, the twice cooked and the pan fried. They tasted almost the same. We did enjoy the crab fried rice and the duck. The braised beef with tomato was delicious too. Food came out very quickly. The mushroom beef noodles soup was okay. Also, none of the dishes come with rice. Different from most Chinese restaurants. With such saucy dishes, it really needed rice. I wish the waiter/host who took our order would have said something about the rice. It is extra which honestly, is a little annoying. With how long it took to get water and take out boxes, we decided to skip dessert. Parking was validated for 2 hours. We were glad we came, but honestly probably wouldn't be back. read more

A visually striking spot for lunch with standout Dan Dan Noodles. I stopped by for lunch and was immediately impressed by the bold, eye-catching interior--especially the extravagant wall art, which gives the space a vibrant and unique character. I ordered the Dan Dan Noodles, and they were absolutely fantastic--full of flavor, with just the right amount of heat and depth. It was disappointing to learn that dumplings are no longer on the menu, but the other dishes I tried were also well-executed and delicious. Service was friendly, though a bit uncoordinated. It took a while for someone to notice I needed assistance, and I wasn't sure who my server was throughout the meal. That said, everyone I interacted with was pleasant, and I left feeling satisfied and well-fed. I'll definitely be returning soon--those Dan Dan Noodles alone are worth the trip. read more

The service kinks have been worked out and the food remains excellent. We tried the soup dumplings this time. Yum!

I really enjoyed my first visit here, so I decided to come back with my partner. We were seated promptly and placed our order with our server. Unfortunately, one aspect that took away from the experience was the lack of attentiveness. We didn't receive any water until our food arrived, and only after we asked for it. This was surprising, especially since we were one of only two tables dining at the time. I ordered some of my favorites again: the Scallion Pancake, Cucumber Salad, Mapo Tofu, and Pork Soup Dumplings. We also decided to try the General Tso's Chicken, which was underwhelming--I'd probably opt for a beef dish next time. Everything else was just as delicious as I remembered. I still love the food, but I hope the service is more attentive on my next visit. read more

This is one the best new Sichuan places in NOVA imo. The dishes are actually spicy and not toned down for the American palette. We had the salted egg tofu the chongching crispy chicken or La ze chi in most other places. The chicken is addictive and drowned with chilli peppers all around. But you keep on coming back to the dish to try and pick out every little morsel of chicken or crispy you can find. Dan dan noodles ordered as an appetizer was also delicious. Presentation was their strong point on this dish. Garnished with some watercress it was enough to feed all five of us. Service was fast, attentive and friendly. Water filled every five minutes. Parking is free in the garage for 2 hours with validation and QR code scan. The place is bright and modern. read more

One of the better spots for quality, authentic Chinese food in the DMV. We went during the holidays so it wasn't super busy - ambiance/interiors are nice. While food was great, service was subpar. One of the servers came multiple times to ask if we were ready to order and scoffed when we said we needed more time, and the server that took our order seemed unfamiliar with the menu. Additionally, they said they were completely out of all soup items of the menu which was disappointing and strange. read more

I loved this place for the Chinese and Szechuan food and ambiance, it really does give up upscale Chinese restaurant. They have validation for parking in this parking lot which is nice. Spicy beef and tripe slices, black truffle pork dumplings were my fav dishes! Black truffle pork was so flavourful. The spicy beef and tripe slices did not skimp out at all with the spiciness and tastiness - I loved it so much I still think about it! The other dishes were good too, particular the mapo tofu and tofu with crab in my opinion. Wasn't really a fan of the yam cake to be honest. I'd say the bussers and servers were pretty attentive and kind. It was sometimes hard to find the waiter/waitress at times or getting their attention, so we had to wait extended periods of time for some things unless the bussers noticed us first most of the time. Would definitely come again to try their other dishes. read more

A new Chinese restaurant in Falls Church? I'm there! My friend and I ate dinner at RH Bistro last Saturday. We waited about 10-15 minutes before they seated us. The pricing is on the higher end for Sichuan-style dishes, but that's modern and new interior for ya. Their bar area is humongous but not sure if they serve any fancy cocktails or drinks like they do at overpriced, "elevated" restaurants in the DMV area. Our food came out pretty quickly after ordering. TIBETAN CUMIN LAMB 藏香孜然羊 - 24 The lamb was cut into pretty small pieces and stir-fried with lots of aromatics and spices. The heat was pretty numbing, but not too crazy. However, the dish was on the saucier side, which was unexpected. This was probably the sauciest cumin meat dish I've had. While it was flavored well, we thought drier and crispier textures would allow the cumin and chilis to shine. TILAPIA FILLET WITH PICKLED VEGETABLES SOUP 金汤酸菜鱼 - 32 The portion size is huge, and they don't skimp on the fish here. The fish was a bit dry and not as soft as I had hoped, almost like it was overcooked. Besides that, the broth was a bright golden yellow. It was mostly savory, with a bit spicy and sour notes -- maybe a bit too salty, but I ate it with more rice and it was fine. The pickled vegetables were crunchy and juicy. I had enough leftovers to take home for another meal. Reheating it a couple days later on a pot and adding some rice noodles hit the spot. Overall, 3.5/5 but will bump it to a 4/5. It's still a pretty new restaurant, and I hope they will continue to improve! Also, none of the entrees came with rice. Each bowl is $2, RIP. I look forward to trying other dishes during future visits. read more

Rh Bistro - Tibetan Cumin Lamb - Shanghainese Near Me - Falls Church, Virginia

I am truly sad about my experience here because the food was absolutely delicious. My friend booked a private room for his birthday which had a $300 minimum so we ordered quite a lot: scallion pancakes, soup dumplings, mapo tofu, tofu with crab sauce, tea duck, pea shoots, sweet and sour fish (ABSOLUTE FAVORITE), etc. But the service was terrible - we were never checked up on and they never took the empty plates whenever they would bring us more food. Some of our food was missing after over an hour and it seemed like they just forgot. I ended up having to get up and go out of the room multiple times to find one of them to ask about the food, an update, the check, and then to pay out. In the end, not only did they forget some food, they also tacked on another item we didn't order and I noticed after we paid so they had to refund us entirely and have us pay again. This place is fairly new so I am hoping and praying that they get more staff soon. The place wasn't too crowded when we went, but there also only seemed to be 2 servers. Debating if I'll give them another try, but will also wait a while to give them some time to work out the kinks. read more

We came to RH Bistro for a birthday lunch and overall had a good experience. The restaurant is spacious with modern décor, and the 2 hour free garage parking next door is convenient. You just need to download the app to activate it. We tried quite a few dishes: Pork Soup Dumplings, Sichuan Dan Dan Noodles, Tea-Smoked Duck, Tibetan Cumin Lamb, General Tso's Chicken, Sichuan Chongqing Pepper Chicken, Yazhou Fried Rice, and Pork Belly. The soup dumplings were just okay, the General Tso's chicken was a bit dry (likely chicken breast), and the pork belly was on the bland side. The duck and General Tso's chicken also seemed to have a bit too much food coloring. That said, there were definite highlights. Our kids loved the Dan Dan noodles, and we all enjoyed the Teasmoked duck, Yazhou fried rice, cumin lamb, and Sichuan pepper chicken, which were flavorful and delicious. Service was good, and despite a few misses, we enjoyed our visit and would return to try other dishes. read more

Finally got the chance to stop by here for dinner. Didn't have reservation but was able to get a table within 5 minutes. Ambience - nicely decorated except from our table I can see the to go area and it was not very neat and organized. Most restaurants that I have been to either have a screen or a wall to shield the area from the diners. Service - it was ok. We had to flag down for our missing rice after our entrees been out for a while. Food - We ordered various dishes to try them out. Scallion Pancakes for appetizer but it came with no dipping sauce which is unusual. For entrees we ordered fried green beans, crisp fish w rattan, and sizzling beef w onion. The fish dish definitely requires a special taste. It has a very strange flavor and which is hard for me to describe. The beef is dish is fine and so is the green beans. For the price, it's definitely pricier for your typical Chinese food. I was really looking forward to enjoy the meals here at this new restaurant but I found all the dishes that we ordered weren't great. I don't mind paying higher price for food but my expectation will be higher also. Sadly, there is nothing great that will have me coming back here. When we have so many options out there around the DMV, all new restaurants need to be better and differentiate themselves from others. This is not it. read more

I am seriously so glad you don't eat service. it's very frustrating when a restaurant is esthetically pretty. Your food looks esthetically pleasing. But the service reflects a hole in the wall Chinese placed your price point is a luxury Chinese restaurant. It's like you have a beautiful outfit and ugly personality. I want to be a Crazy Rich Asian... interiors modern opulence in Asian esthetic clean and contemporary. I get it .. when you're new you're still working out things but when you walk in and no one is at the hostess stand? The waiter takes your order but probably is not familiar with the menu.. good thing that toast machine is there to punch in things. Your tea is brought out in an odd industrial teapot which doesn't match any of the esthetic of the restaurant. Bigelow Jasmine tea bag? Not even the dried tea leaves? Tell me why the crisp fish dish was the first thing to arrive??! No sauces on the table and the scallion pancake came afterwards... along with 2 Bamboo baskets of dumplings that looked like the had been sadly over steamed and were like warm upon arrival . I pulled on off the parchment and it there goes the soup. Look if I bite into a dumpling and your wrapper separates from meat and soup before I've poured my soup on my spoon there is an execution problem. Flavor of both were a bit mild for me maybe it's cause they were like warm. The crab & pork weren't hugely fishy but still a nice crab flavor. The truffle & pork had truffle on the back end but not overly truffle if you like that it's for you. Oh and 2 soup spoons for a table of 3. What?! Guess we sharing spoons. Anyway next was the braised tofu & crab meat sauce... no rice yet.. then the green beans & eggplant arrived pretty good but where is the eggplant? It's like more green bean than eggplant. So where is my salted egg shrimp no where to be found. Has our server to check on us? No where to be found. Asked a server she now has to check than another Male comes out with said toast device and speak in Chinese...then realize we don't speak Chinese and speaks English and ask we haven't gotten our shrimp right. Clearly is wasn't there since he was the one who ran a good majority of our food. We finished all the dishes and no one came to clean them up. Cool I get it not enough help. Not even an apology that the order was forgotten. We asked for Togo containers not one bag in sight.. until we were leaving that the server who magically appeared with our check and as we were leaving offered a bag. After seeing us trying to balance our containers. Honestly for the price you pay for the food and the quality your getting and quality of food temperature varies too much the only hot item we got was our salty egg yolk shrimp. Everything else was lukewarm. I mean I can let service slide if food is decent but in this case too many fluctuations and inconsistency that makes me wonder who is running this place. Oh and it wasn't busy when we arrived so I cannot say it was due to lack of staffing its overall execution and inconsistency. RH has a potential but until it figures out how to master the customer experience the price point will never match the quality you're given. It's called overpriced and esthetically pleasing. I don't like compare restaurants but imagine you took Peter Chang's menu and Tiger Dumpling esthetic and service and you have RH BISTRO. I'm Being generous even giving a 3.0 stars. read more

A new restaurant just came to FC and it's the kind of Chinese that's both Authentic and you'd want to do for date night. It's modern but understandably priced.

Plus it's next to Kyo Matcha and parking was free. read more

Went to RH Bistro twice in quick succession. The food was well executed by the Chef, proteins were tender and vegetables were fresh and not overcooked. However, the service is where RH Bistro need to significantly improve. We went on a Friday and a Saturday night and both times the restaurant seemed understaffed. That is the key word, seems like...however, it just feels like the team do not know how to efficiently run the front of the house. Food was delivered in inconsistent intervals and when you ask for anything additional, every time the wait staff would forget. Dinner service took 2 hours and a majority of that time was due to waiting. In fact, the check took 20 mins after requesting it. Which seems counter-intuitive since this enables you to make quick turns. In fact, both times I witness customers having to get up and wave down team members to take orders, inquire on orders, request to-go boxes, etc. Once the restaurant is able to provide efficient service, I think this place will be pretty packed. Food is important, but if meal service takes crazy amounts of time, that is a problem. read more

The food was so salty. Overly salty for all 4 of us. Entrees came way after appetizers which is a bit weird. The fungus appetizer had no taste. The server took forever to come to our table to take our order. Mind you, we were the only table. Lol. Within the first 5 minutes usually they ask about beverages at least??? Nope. He never checked up on us. Only saw him when we were ready for boxes because we couldn't finish any of the food. Also being served cold rice is annoying. We skipped dessert since we were disappointed in the first two rounds of food. The two stars are purely for the design of the restaurant. Love the color scheme. read more

A bit hit or miss. Was excited to try this place and the interior is very beautiful. The eggplant preserved egg appetizer was great and the best dish of the meal. The chili oil chicken was really dry, truffle soup dumplings (they didn't have normal pork or crab flavored in stock) was a big let down--absolutely no truffle flavor. The worst dish was the crab tofu. I was excited to try this as this is a dish I liked a lot in China but it had no flavor at all. Very bland and the crab topping was watered down and fake tasting. Might return to try other dishes but for a pricey meal and such a miss on 3 dishes, I'm not inclined to. Also, service was not good. Constantly had to try to raise our hands and flag someone down because no one came to check on our table at all. The owner is known for his Maryland restaurants so I was hoping this restaurant would be okay, but was disappointed. read more
