The ambiance was inviting, the overall dining experience left a bit to be desired. The decor was warm and inviting, creating a pleasant atmosphere perfect for a night out. However, the food itself was just okay—nothing particularly memorable, but not terrible either. Upon arriving, I requested to be moved away from the door, as the constant flow of customers was a bit distracting. Unfortunately, the staff informed me that they didn’t have any other tables available at the moment, which was disappointing. It would have been nice if they could have accommodated my request, especially since the restaurant wasn’t overly crowded. On a positive note, our waiter was very polite and attentive. He was genuinely friendly and provided good service throughout the meal, which helped make the experience more enjoyable despite the food not meeting my expectations. While the ambiance and service were commendable, the food didn’t leave a lasting impression. I might consider giving this restaurant another try in the future.

I love Rpm steakhouse. I thought that rap seafood would be as good, but did not really care for it. The steakhouse is by far better.

I’ve been to RPM Seafood many times, unfortunately this night (Valentines Day) they were clearly overwhelmed. We waited for 45 minutes after our reservation time to be seated. When we were seated we were next to the kitchen door in the 2nd floor and the service was poor, we felt very secondary to the server. Lastly, the food was not as good as usual, ok tasting steak and much of the food was being served barely warm. Don’t take on the incremental business if you can’t properly staff and support it in the kitchen.

Food was excellent. We got a table overlooking the river which I think was actually the best table in the house. The food was fresh and delicious and our server was outstanding along with the rest of the front of house staff. Will definitely be back.
