    Best crab cake in the city, and not a bad G&T, either. :)

    We did the thanksgiving dinner and it wasn’t good at all, certainly not worth the price. The buffet had limited options and they were generic, felt more like a hometown buffet. Service was slow and it felt rushed. The place was packed and it felt crowded. Ambiance was terrible, no decorations at all, people wearing sweatpants and tshirts. We have done other thanksgiving dinners in Chicago and this one ranks pretty close to the bottom, value it’s not there. We won’t be back to any RPM restaurants.

    Octopus was my favorite. The Yellowfin Tuna crispy rice, the Greek tomato salad, miso black cod and salmon were all great.

    The food was oversted. All grilled food tasted the same if it was king crab legs, shrimp or spanish octopus because of the grill not being cleaned probably. I made a request for birthday dinner and did not get a candle on the napoleon cake that I ordered.
    RPM SeafoodResponded 3 days ago
    Thank you for your feedback, Dovile. We're sorry to hear your experience fell short. We take your comments seriously and will address both the seasoning and kitchen maintenance to ensure better flavor consistency. We apologize for missing the birthday touch and hope to make it right on your next visit.
