Lovely experience as always. Salmon arrived almost raw and oil soaked. Managed replaced and comped it along with offers of dessert and after dinner drinks. Evening - and their reputation with us - saved and raised. Looking forward to returning soon.

Great service and ambiance. Took my sister here for her birthday dinner last night. I got an email earlier this week asking for the name of the person we were celebrating and what milestone birthday it was, which I appreciated and happily provided. Although the gesture was greatly appreciated, they didn’t provide anything specific so unsure what that info was needed for. Anyhow, upon arrival, our server acknowledged we were there for a special occasion which added a nice personalized touch. One minor thing is that we wished our food didn’t come out SO quickly lol but overall everything was fantastic. Service was great and we noticed how happy the staff all seemed to be working there. Will certainly be back!

We had a great dinner experience at RPM seafood! Our server was Jessica and she is so personable and offers great service. We tried one of the off menu specials she let us know about and it was delicious; we asked for some recommendations and nothing disappointed! The scramble eggs and truffle dish was surprisingly delicious and the octopus was cooked perfectly. We really enjoyed the tempura Tai which was a great balance of fish and crunchy tempura. We finished with the banana dessert which was not overly heavy and a great way to end a full meal. We are thankful for Jessica as service felt seamless.
