    I received great service and attentiveness from Abbey and Sean. I ordered the chopped salad and the crab mac n cheese. Both were delicious! The valet was also quick on this super cold winter night.

    We are regulars at RPM seafood and unfortunately, this dinner we all agreed was not as good as any others we’ve had over the last few years. The lobster was dry, and my steak was tough. The crab was delicious. Our service was OK but service in the dining room versus the bar area is far much better.. This is the first time we sat in the bar with a party of 7. I am hoping that this was just an off night because I brag about RPM seafood to everyone and want to continue to do so.

    We had a memorable evening on a cold night in a cozy environment overlooking the Chicago River. We had great food and impeccable service. The wine list is virtually incomparable. I was amazed by our server's knowledge about both the food and the wines. We will not soon forget this dining experience and we will be back in other seasons.
