Absolutely delicious, a hole in the wall local spot. An American spin on Chinese food for sure. The beef and broccoli was made with the most tender brisket I’ve ever had! And the shrimp fried rice with Hawaiian bacon is simply divine. I haven’t had one thing that wasn’t spectacular and the cocktails are amazing. Please try the Thai milk daiquiri, the Chinese doughnuts and the Craw Rangoon!!

I think I found my new favorite restaurant! This unassuming restaurant serves up the most delicious food. The atmosphere and staff are full of character. Nathan was our server today, and was absolutely hilarious. He really made our experience shine. Order anything off the menu and I am sure you will be pleased. The food is plated beautifully, accented with color, and full of flavor. The hot and sour soup was probably the best soup I’ve ever had. DO NOT PASS THIS PLACE UP. Delicious, large portions for very reasonable prices, delightful staff, and inviting art. I will be back!

The food is absolutely five stars. It’s not your usual “oh, I think I fancy Chinese take out tonight”.. And that’s not a bad thing. The flavors are fresh, portions generous, and menu exciting.

The only drawback is the size of space and the overwhelming smell of kitchen space which is open to dining room. I want to smell my food, I don’t necessarily want to be inundated with all the scents coming from the kitchen. Because of this, I sit in the back courtyard which is lovely but limits the time frame of when I can eat there.

But the food is en Pointe.

Wonderfully Surprised! “Wow…just wow!” Completely and surprisingly lives up to every bit of it’s great reputation for delicious, creative, inspired food.

The restaurant itself is very unassuming and not obvious from the street…save the small square red sign out front. Its located on the lower floor of a two story building with “Tacqueria” clearly emblazoned on the front.

Entering the small, dimly lit space, you notice first the bar…and then the open kitchen directly across from the bar. As you venture further into Red’s, finally a few small candle-lit tables become visible.

That said, we were quickly greeted by very friendly/warm staff and ushered to a table-for-two of our choice. Then the atmosphere begins to set in…simple yet inviting if not a little NOLA cool and funky. We immediately felt comfortable and looked forward to the menu so many rave about.

Then came the simple two-sided, thick paper menu. You may notice the drink side is more extensive than the food side…wine, beer, etc as well as some very interesting and inventive cocktails

The dining menu is significantly shorter than those of most restaurants, but what it lacks in scale is quickly recognizable as a fascinating mix of creative, inspired dishes. I felt immediately like having one of each item on that little menu. Note: Do heed the wait staff’s warning…dishes are served family style…ie the portions are larger than you might expect. Regardless, especially if you likely won’t return to the area for a while, I definitely recommend trying a few things. We shared the following:

– Thai iced tea daiquiri
– Crawgoons – local inspired version of the crab rangoon…crawfish and and a habanero honey sauce!
– Pork Belly Buns were awesome!
– The Kimchee is some of best, most flavorful and intense I’ve had
– General Chicken – local take on this popular dish using whole fried chicken drums, wings, breast, etc…gain, best I’ve had ever
– My wife had the ginger noodles ramen bowl and loved it!
– I finished w a Far East inspired Permanent Vacation cocktail…if I’d eaten any more I might have remained there, comatose, indeed on a more or less permanent vacation
– But wait…we weren’t done yet. The donuts embellished w a green tree glaze had been fried to perfection. Delightful finish to our amazing meal!

Overall, it was absolutely obvious the food was prepared with soul and love. You could taste it in every bite of every dish, as well as in the funky down home atmosphere, pleasant service, and thoughtful presentation.

As we departed, amazed and already recalling our experience…probably because we didn’t want it to end, the staff and cooks all smiled, waived, and said “thank you” from open kitchen.

This experience we’ll not soon forget…don’t pass up the opportunity!

My daughter and her husband love this place, but my own experience was nothing special. Passable and about-average Chinese food. I know they also offer dishes that are a kind of Chinese-Southern fusion, so maybe I will need to try those next time. It was a very busy place when I visited, so obviously there are a lot of people who enjoy their food.

1-Almost no vegetarian options
2-It took us up to 20 minutes to be able to place our order
3-The waiter told us it’s better to be seated at the bar instead of inside .. it was hot and humid like hell
4-the food was so-so
5-the barman/waiter was more busy taking delivery orders than wondering if everything was ok
6-when we asked for the bill… again we had to wait 10 minutes before getting it! BTW there was only one other client at the bar!
