R & G Lounge Recs? (+ I like the fancy pants new digs)

I'm taking two Irish cousins to R & G Lounge. They have moderate pallettes. I've never been to the place so I was wondering if one might provide a few recommendations.

    they're rather famous for the salt/pepper crab.

    its an odd thing... they batter the crab up and deep fry/stir fry thing whole thing. if you've had like a salt/pepper shrimp somewhere, this is what's its like, except whole live crab. its quite good.

    and yes, it doesn't sound great: battered crab shell, but it works.

      R & G Special Beef is one of their most popular dishes, and is tailor-made for Western palates.
