Great food and service; we enjoyed dinner on a snowy night in downtown CLE.

5:30pm reservation before the Christmas concert with the orchestra. Fantastic dinner for the four of us. Strip steaks cooked to perfection. Sea bass and pork chop good as well. Service was impeccable. We had the short rib rigatoni as an appetizer for the table to share and all at the table commented that it was the best they have ever had. Can’t wait to go again.

I think the price was a bit steep for the quality. I had the beef short rib and wish that the chef was a bit more heavy handed with the demi glace especially since the beef was over. It was a bit tough/dry and I wasnt super appealing to the eye Everyone else generally enjoyed their meals although I don’t think anyone was blown away. $240 with tip for 4 people including two kids and two adults (3 adult beverages total). Service was friendly and ambiance was there. Probably will not go back due to price for quality ratio.

We dined at Red’s two evenings in a row. Both dining experiences were wonderful. Our steaks were perfectly prepared and all sides were delicious. Barbara, our server, was a delight. We will be back to Red’s next time we are in town. Go see Barbara. She will take excellent care of you.

Food and service was excellent. The acoustics carry loudly with everyone talk in a cozy place so so wouldn’t recommend for a “quiet getting to know” first date but definitely bring them there on a one month anniversary haha
