We were celebrating my friend's birthday and thought this place would be perfect since we loved the one in Narragansett so much. As you enter, you are greeted with a beautiful chandelier and the atmosphere was just perfect. We were ushered upstairs which has walls to wall art. So the evening was going to be great!!! I ordered a pumpkin martini which was out of this world. Then we ordered, our entrees. I ordered the mussels in white wine sauce, my husband ordered the white fish clam chowder, others had calamaries and salad. The clam chowder was very delicious, so was the calamari and the white white sauce of the mussels. However when I started digging into the shells to eat my mussels, I must have tried 10 shells and no mussels. So I asked for a new plate with mussels to which the waiter came back to tell me that mussels are out of season...well take it off of the menu!!!! I was so looking forward to dipping my break in the wine sauce...it was sooo good but alas I had to choose another appetizer so I went with the next best thing....the chowder. Plenty of fish chunks, clams, potato and very creamy. So entrees have to be so much better.... well not really... I ordered the stuffed Salmon which was very blend, my girlfriend had the stuffed chicken which wasn't any better, my husband had the stuffed lobster which, he said, was delicious and someone else ordered a paella for two that could feed the table of 10 and was blend as well. The was wasn't lost because of the company and most of the food wasn't bad but the reason I gave that rating is because we had to wait for sooo long for the waiter in between request. We needed to order a drink, wait...we needed to bag our food, wait...then he came and started to pack 1 dinner, then left to tend another table....came back 15minutes later just toeave again. In the meantime we asked for the bill which never came then he came with the birthday cake we brought then brought the bill much later. We started at 5pm and didn't leave until after 8pm and mostly it was waiting on the waiter. Needless to say, I wasn't impressed.

We came down from Boston and had dinner here before Riverfire on a Saturday night. We started with a selection of a dozen local oysters that turned out to be a selection of one type of local oyster because (I assume) they ran out of some oysters. The oysters were fresh but had none of their liquor in the shell, which is off-putting and just sloppy shucking. The meat and cheese plate had some tasty chorizo, Serrano ham, a few small slices of two different cheeses and oddly, fried plantain strips and a few rock-hard bread slices so hard I could barely chew them. We used most of them in the roasted shrimp in garlic and pepper sauce which was tasty but had only five small shrimps. Meatballs in a smokey sauce were again tasty but I found the BBQ like sauce a little strange in a Latin-inspired tapa dish. The beer selection is good and the cocktails are well made. All in all, Red Fin wasn't bad. the bill for three beers, a cocktail and four tapas came to $133 pre tax and tip so Red Fin ain't cheap. The back room was crowded and really noisy and we were relived to be in the front room at the bar. As you can tell, I was not blown away by Red Fin. I've had tapas at places like Toro in Boston and Red Fin is simply not in that class of tapas bar. I think I would be giving Red Fin a bit more slack if the bill were not so large given the level of execution of the dishes.
