[W]e had breakfast at Rib Tip this morning. The owner told us the following:
- Starting Monday he's going to be charging DC taxes on top of his prices. Up til now he's been paying them out of the revenue he gets in order to bring customers in and let them find out how good his food is at a good price. If you ask me the prices are *still* a bargain for the delicious home-cooked food even with taxes added in.
- The added revenue should allow him to hire extra help to improve service
- All his equipment is now in and he has a training class for the equipment scheduled for tomorrow, allowing:
- Starting Monday (barring bad weather that cancels the training class tomorrow) they'll be open from 5:30 am to 8pm and serving a full menu, including racks of ribs, rotisserie chicken, etc.
- Oh, and I had the home fries w/ breakfast this morning...no, not preformed shredded potato patties...real potatoes w/ seasoning and onions...off the charts good. At least to me :-)

Those home fries are really, and the bacon is excellent too...

Yeah, really, at the Rib Tip they cook everything, it's all delicious, and it's priced to please.
OMG! I've been waiting with bated breath for a restaurant other than the Phish Tea Cafe (interesting food, abominable service) or Horace & Dickie's to open. I will probably go there tonight for dinner.
Thanks for the tip!!!
If you're not close by see if you can call & make sure they're open. He said there was a small chance they wouldn't be able to open if that equipment class got canceled due to weather.
The breakfast is OUTSTANDING! Since the food is prepared to order there is a slight wait, but it is definitely worth the wait. You can also call in your order in advance
What is the phone number for RibTip?

Is Rib Tip closed? I understand a sign on the door says "closed for reorganization." What does that mean?
I noticed that. I'm not sure what it means, but they have been buying stuff bit by bit. Maybe they are just reorganizing?
