Nicely decorated surrounding with a good location. For my disappointment the mussels were a bit overcooked. Maybe I should have taken something else from the menu

The service was okay though it's a bit weird that staff were talking loud on one of the tables close to the kitchen since there were only about 2 or 3 tables occupied. The server was nice and welcoming. The food doesn't seem too good for it's price. A few oysters were too small than the others. The steak was served a bit cold and one steak was served medium rare on one part and rare on the other part. The lobster shell is big enough for the serving but the contents is too small.
Restaurant Red • Owner
Dear Faustine, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We appreciate your feedback and take comments about consistency, temperature and portions seriously as we continuously aim to refine our overall experience.

Right on the canals with a cost atmosphere and good service. Food was delicious as we also saw on other reviews. We had the lobster roll with fries and it was awesome. More than enough for a lunch.

I’ve been to Restaurant Red before, as well as Black and Blue, and my past experiences were okay. Nothing bad, nothing standout. This visit was similar food-wise, but the overall experience stayed positive because of the service. It was a pleasant evening, and I ordered the escargot, carpaccio, and burger. The carpaccio was disappointing. It looked pale and lacked the freshness I usually expect. As someone who often orders carpaccio, this one didn’t land and felt like it had been prepared earlier. The burger looked fine on the outside. The bread and vegetables were decent, but the patty was cold inside, which took away from what could have been a solid dish. The escargot was the highlight. I’m not an expert, but it was enjoyable and clearly better executed than the other dishes. What really stood out was Ivan. His energy was genuinely great. Warm, attentive, and natural. He made us feel welcome without trying too hard, and that honestly shaped how the evening felt. He’s the main reason
