Our review of RM Seafood is mixed, but positive overall.
We were seated immediately without a reservation at 7:30 on a Saturday night with a Groupon (don't know what this says about the sales at this restaurant). The Groupon was $46 for $92 worth of food ($36 x 2 for entrees + $20 for drinks). It popped onto Groupon and we grabbed it.
Service was first rate. I ordered Diver Scallops and my wife had RM Style Cioppino (mixed seafood plate with pasta). Comes with wine but we had sparkling waters and ice teas. The half-dozen scallops were large and perfectly cooked. I can still remember the first bite I had. There was a wonderful sauce on the plate with eggplant and (strangely) pork-belly.
The Cioppino was a problem because the the Calamarata Pasta was chewy and undercooked. Not acceptable at a place like this. The mussels, clams, shrimp and king crab (shelled for you in the kitchen) were tasty. Comes also with a garlic bread basket which they filled. The wait staff was so engaging that we didn't even complain about the pasta (after all we had a Groupon). We tipped 20% on the pre-discount price.
Probably won't go again unless a groupon pops back onto the website.
