Rick Moonen's RM Seafood Vegas

The Environment:

The atmosphere in Rick Moonen's RM Seafood Vegas is not what you'd get at your local Long John Silver's. Sure, you'll still get a plate of fish, but in a much more sophisticated and trendy setting.

Why We Dine:

Rick Moonen's RM Seafood Mandalay Bay Las Vegas is kind of expensive. Well, pretty darn expensive. The service is great, and the food is good, but you pay for it. Obviously.

• Contemporary Elegance: An average dinner check at Rick Moonen's RM Seafood Vegas is $45-75. If you sit upstairs, you'll get a much fancier dining experience, which also means a higher bill. The higher you sit, the higher your bill. That makes sense. Sit downstairs and you get most of the same food, but for better prices. They're also open for lunch, which is served downstairs.
• Multi-Course Chef's Tasting Menu: A seven-course tasting menu with wine pairing is the best way to experience Rick Moonen's RM Seafood Mandalay Bay Vegas. Yes, you have to sit upstairs to get this. So maybe it's not the best way for us Cheapos, but if  'best' means the most expensive and impressive, then yes. It's the best. Be careful though, the meal alone is $135 a person. Like we said - not for us.
• Ice Cream Tasting: Order this little treat for dessert at Rick Moonen's RM Seafood Vegas and they'll bring out 16 small portions of ice cream. If you guess all 16 right, the dessert is free, and free is even better than 16 flavors of ice cream! Its basically impossible to get all 16 right, but it's still fun trying.
