RAMMYS Watch: Public Voting Is Open (You Have Opinions)

Alright, DC, this is your moment. Public voting is officially open for the 44th Annual RAMMYS Awards & Gala, and if you’ve ever had a favorite anything —> bar, brunch, sandwich, or go-to hang —> you’re now part of the process.

Hosted by the Restaurant Association of Metropolitan Washington, the RAMMYS celebrate the very best of our region’s restaurant and hospitality community. This is where diners get to weigh in.

You can cast your votes now through May 17 across four fan-favorite categories:

Best Bar
Best Brunch
Hottest Sandwich Spot
Favorite Gathering Place

And this year, there’s something new: Content Creator of the Year.

This is a write-in category (yes, you have to type it in), and it’s recognizing the digital voices shaping how and where we all eat. The ones going beyond the pretty plate to actually tell the stories of the people and places behind the food.

This is your chance to rally behind your favorites and maybe even give some love to the voices helping you discover it all in the first place.
