    Fantastic from start to finish. Glen was our bartender/server and he did an outstanding job. Highly recommend as both food and drink were excellent and service and ambience made it a wonderful experience.

    We love going to RPM Italian. One of our favorites. The food is always good and service is great. Our favs to share are the truffle bread, meatballs, and Italian salad, Brussels sprouts. Then the entrees are good portions and we take home what we can’t finish.

    There were some positives for RPM Italian: the cocktails were good and the environment was nice. However, the experience was mostly poor. My wagyu steak was severely over seasoned, drink service was slow, none of the food stood out as being exceptional, and my waiter, while not bad, did not add much to the experience (took away drink menus, didn’t mention any specials or suggest any wine pairings, and getting the bill felt rushed). Overall, RPM Steak and Seafood were both far better. I won’t be returning to RPM Italian

    i took my boyfriend here for his birthday and it was so cute. We were seated quickly and they had menus customized just for us and the special occasion. They did an amazing job at making us feel welcome and the food was excellent. I would love to come back here again for more celebrations. We had a wonderful time.
