Great for big parties.!

by JGIBSNYTIMES

Red is a wonderful place to have your evening meals. As a critic, i've been hearing great news about their famous margaritas and outstanding mexican food as well, so I couldn't help but to travel all the way down from Conneticut just to observe what they really have to offer.

It was thursday April the 15th around 3pm. I entered RED for the first time and I was pleasantly greeted by their host ( about 5'6-5'7, very long straight hair.very well and neatly dressed, professional/casual attire I must say), she had the most flattering smile that would just make you say YES I would like a table. She gave me the best seat in the house " A booth ". I really like the atmosphere and the diversity of the enviroment ( you don't usually see that in other rest.). I sat and I was greeted and handled very well with the waitress that was assign to my table. The food came on time, drinks were made fresh and it was delicious ( I am now convinced that RED really serves the " FAMOUS MARGARITAS ". The hosts ( I believe one of them was currently a trainee) came to my table and kindly checked if I was being handled properly which I thought it was great and rare at the same time because hosts would usually sit guests only. Although I was not able to see if their were any managers on the floor to thank his/her, I enjoyed my stay at RED.Overall the place is great, everyone seemed to get along great and is having a great bond with one another in terms of giving the best service in town.

RED you got my vote!

I'd be happy to come back anytime i'm in town.

Decent Mexican Food

by midnitmarauder

The decor and outdoor seating makes Red very appealing to the eye. We were seated promptly and the service was very good, we didn't wait too long for our food, the waiter was around when we needed him. The food itself was good, but nothing out of the ordinary. It's not exactly worth the prices they charge. You can eat at Gonzales Y Gonzales at Houston and Broadway for the same price and you'll get a meal that's 10x better. If you have ever been to Chipotle (the burrito chain), the food here is very similar . So all in all, if you're looking for a place to eat while visiting the sea port or the area around it, Red is a decent choice. You won't be disappointed but you won't be excited over the food either!

• Pros: Good service, Good location
• Cons: Food is just average.

There are many better restuarants nearby

by scartlead

Nice location, menu looks pretty good, food tastes slightly better than it looks (which is average). I think a lot of it is cooked from frozen (the calimari for example). Service is slow (though the waiter was polite), main courses were brought out while people were still eating their starters. When we complained about this, it was suggested it would be 'hassle' to take the main courses back to the kitchen. Well, I apologise for inconveniencing the restaurant. We had to leave after the starters, we couldn't take it anymore. Salud round the corner is much better if you want a decent meal.

• Pros: Close to good restuarants
• Cons: At Red, they do not believe that the customer is always right

Go around the corner (literally!) to Salud instead

by tusharyadava

Service was ridiculous. I won't bore people with details, needless to say, they screwed up orders, and were horrible about it... It's a completely mass-produced restaurant experience and screams more Michigan than Mexico, and I'm from California (I guess that qualifies me!)...

Anyway, IF you make it to this restaurant, walk past it, towards the Bodies exhibition and il Porto, and turn right and head to Salud.

We walked out during starters...

• Pros: Close to other nice restaurants
• Cons: Most things fundamental to a restaurant

Great for big groups!

by lacoqueta101

Have been to Red before, and have always been please, but this time I went here for a friend's surprise bday dinner With last minute reservations for about 20 people on a Saturday night, Red was very accomodating. We bascially had the whole upstairs to ourselves, and the service was very attentive, but not pushy. She let us have our fun. Strong drinks, good food, nice decor, great service....what more could you ask for? Also, the prices were pretty reasonable.

• Pros: drinks, service

The beef they use is low grade and greasy! Overpriced menu and drinks. This place is geared toward tourists Dont waste your money or time with this place, it's not worth a try!

• Pros: Good Location
• Cons: Overpriced, Low Grade Meat & Greasy

GREAT place for dinner/drinks

by sam70124

I LOVE this place! They have great drinks, good food, great prices....The staff is friendly. The atmosphere is pretty good considering this part of the city is entirely surrounded by suits.

They have the best margaritas and I've VERY picky about what I consider to be a decent one. Highly recommend for dinner/drinks with friends or a date.
