**⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | RPM Seafood - A Feast for the Senses** My recent visit to RPM Seafood was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance set the tone for an elegant and memorable dining experience. The waterfront view and sleek decor create the perfect blend of sophistication and warmth. We started with the **Seafood Tower**, which was a showstopper. Impeccably fresh oysters, jumbo shrimp, king crab, and lobster were artfully arranged and bursting with flavor. Each bite was a testament to the restaurant’s dedication to quality and freshness. The **Lobster Fried Rice** was an unexpected highlight. The balance of tender lobster, perfectly cooked rice, and subtle seasoning made it both comforting and luxurious. A must-try side dish that could easily steal the spotlight! For the main course, the **Charcoal-Grilled Black Bass** was simply divine. Cooked to perfection with a subtle smoky char, the bass was tender, flaky, and beautifully complemented by its accompanying flavors. The service was exceptional throughout the evening, with our server offering excellent recommendations and ensuring we felt cared for at every moment. RPM Seafood delivers on every level—impeccable food, stunning presentation, and flawless service. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply indulging in the finer things, this restaurant is worth every penny. I can’t wait to return and explore more of their menu.

Our reservation for 6 was at 6PM for a high top. We were eventually seated at a round table in the main dining room at 6:45. Manager was very apologetic and comped a couple of appetizers and a couple of desserts. We had a great time.

Waitress and staff were very accommodating. The halibut, crab cakes and house chopped are outstanding. We will come back for the pastry encrusted clam chowder soup and more.

LOVE RPM Seafood. The dining room is gorgeous, the views spectacular, the food delicious, and the service is great. You can't go wrong at this restaurant. We took our office team for dinner this evening and everyone loved it! Our only issue is that the restaurant is loud, so it's hard to hear everyone around a larger table.
