    I recently visited RPM Seafood and really loved the location. The river view is stunning, and I definitely wish it had been warmer so I could enjoy it outside, but even from inside, the atmosphere was beautiful. As for the food, it was decent—I had the halibut with broccolini, which was fine, but nothing overly exciting. The standout, though, was the service. Our server was warm, friendly, and very informative. He also recommended a few off-menu items, which was a nice touch. Honestly, I’d return just for the ambience

    Five Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had the most amazing dining experience at RPM Seafood, thanks to our incredible waitress, Karla. From the moment we sat down, she made us feel so welcome and taken care of. Her attention to detail, knowledge of the menu, and warm personality truly set the tone for a perfect evening. She gave excellent recommendations, checked in at just the right moments, and made sure everything was absolutely perfect. Karla went above and beyond, and I can’t thank her enough for making our meal so special. If you’re dining at RPM Seafood, ask for Karla—you won’t regret it!
