Fodor's Review:

This bilevel space at Mandalay Place was opened in 2005 by one of the culinary world's leading proponents of the sustainable seafood movement. Rick Moonen refuses to serve Chilean sea bass and other overfished species. Fear not—you'll find plenty of delicious treats from the sea. On the upper level, the more formal restaurant, with its sleek mahogany decor, feels a bit like a luxury yacht. Here you might dine on Nantucket Bay scallop carpaccio, or farm-raised abalone with sea-urchin butter. On the more casual lower level, at the Rbar Café, you'll find a bustling raw bar with oysters from throughout North America and simpler treats like New England clam chowder, lobster rolls, and jumbo lump crab cakes.

After watching Rick Moonan make shrimp corn dogs on Top Chef Masters, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to taste them at his restaurant.

They were excellent, as was the other seafood dishes ordered by myself and friends.

But the most impressive fact was that RM was in the restaurant making sure food and service was perfect. I know, because he came over to us to ask how we liked the dish !

My boyfriend & I came to rm seafood on a recommendation from another local. We ate in the dining room upstairs and were blown away! It by far the best high-end dining experience we have had here. The abalone and the cobia are to die for. And everything is eco-friendly and sustainable! What a rare find here! We were so impressed we went back again another night, but the dining room was closed so we ate in the cafe-style restaurant downstairs. We were equally as impressed! The crab cakes are superb, with big lumps of crab meat and the sushi was up there with the finest that I have had here or anywhere. The awesome food, enthusiastic staff and environmentally conscious menu makes it one of our favorites.
