text: The first of our meals out during our oneweek stay in Vegas Not sure why I chose a seafood restaurant as we get some of the best freshly caught seafood out here on the East End of Long Island but I wanted to try it and was not in the mood for a steakhousennAmbience is contemporary Nothing too flashy The bar looked nice we went right to our table The biggest thing that was disconcerting about RM Seafood and Vegas in general was the price coupled with the fact that the location of the restaurant felt very similar to eating at your local indoor mall The restaurant is right next to the escalators leading out of the casino and into the Shops at Mandalay Place If we closed our eyes we might as well have been at Ruby Tuesdays or TGIFs Then open them and look at the menu and see for what was basically a glorified Zuppa de Pesce called Cioppino on their menunnNow onto the food and what began a typical trend for the rest of the week which was We have had much much better for much much less GF had the abovementioned Cioppino Ampleenough portion and lots of fresh crab and large shrimp but of the clams that it came with did not open really unacceptable in any seafood restaurant but even more so considering the prices we were paying and the sauce was a bland tasteless affair that lacked any real zest or punch I had the diver scallops which came with a stuffed poblano pepper and a mole saucewasabi mayo combo The scallops were big soft and tasty I will admit these were some of the best I have had but the pepper was luke warm and the sauce was weighted heavily on the mayo side and did not complement the meal well We started with the daily oyster sampler which for got us six unique oysters from all over the world with a brief description of each OK finennI will also mention that our waitress was a bit of a tryhard eg Asked my GF And which salad will you be having after we had already ordered obviously not choosing to order salads I know this is standard server practice to try and run up the bill but it is obnoxious and completely unprofessional nnI do wish there were halfstar options here as two stars does seem a bit low but it was definitely not AOK
