Customer Reviews

"Found this restaurant by chance. I saw they offered breaded pork tenderloins 3 different ways so I figured they must be proud of them. I had the regular and it was fantastic. Thick with a great breading and not too heavily seasoned. The dish came with one side and so I got the homemade potato chips and they were very good too. We'll be back!"

"We love the take out. Usually fish dinner or a tenderloin. Friendly staff. Very good food (for a bar). My advice on Friday and Saturday evening, is to GO and place your order at the bar. They are so busy they don't have time to answer the phone. Besides, you can have cocktail or a Cherry Bomb Blonde while you wait."

"What a nice little place with fantastic food and service. Don't be fooled into thinking it is typical bar fare as it is anything but. The free parking is either in front or back. There is seating inside or outside on the patio. The server was very attentive and was right there to fulfill any request. Our food was all served in a timely manner piping hot and very fresh. The bar was well stocked and the bartender appeared knowledgeable as the mixed drink ordered was made correctly. Our table ordered a variety of dishes from the fried chicken special to sandwiches and everyone enjoyed their food and drinks."

"Well the hubs and I along with some friends were so glad to have been recommended to Red's.I ordered the breaded tenderloin with sweet potato waffle fries and hubs got the walleye sandwich with the same side.We will definitely come back to sample the rest of the menu.Both sandwiches were lightly breaded and there was a generous amount of sweet potato fries. It did not disappoint with yumminess"

"I ordered the hand breaded pork tenderloin with sweet potato fries. The fries were crispy and not soggy at all. The pork tenderloin was crispy and the breading was flavorful, I didn't ketchup, mustard, salt... Nothing!! I. Just added a few pickles. One of the yummiest tenderloins I've had in awhile. My son got the Texan. He was able to get it cooked medium rare. He also got the season fries. He said most everything was perfect. The season fries were a bit overcooked for his tastes, but he ate everything. My dad got the Ruben sandwich and his wife got the patty melt. And they both said everything was very good!! We will be going back. Oh yes... We got the cheddar cheese cubes, which were hand dipped and very good, and we got the nachos, which I did not try because they did not appeal to me."

- Kris T.

"A great surprise and a small town. We stopped for lunch while driving through. Special of the day was chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes and gravy, a side of corn with roll and butter. My guests had tater tot nachos. Everything was hot and tasty period and prepared quickly for as busy as the bar was. Highly recommend stopping at Reds"
