If you prefer your seafood raw, there is now a Splash Raw Oyster Bar and Seafood Market across the hall, which of course features oysters, New England clam chowder, and the largest selection of caviar in the Midwest. 

Have a large party?  Splash can also accomodate up to 60 guests for business meetings and other events with advanced notice.
