RED Reviews
A friend and I went here before a show at the Orpheum because it was close to the theater. The food was superb. I would highly recommend Red.
Fantastic service, food and atmosphere. Korean beef skewer and brussel sprout salad for appetizer, Godzilla and Tiger rolls for entrees were all outstanding. Blueberry compote on vanilla ice cream for dessert. Highly recommended!

Not Wisconsin-maple-October red.
I mean tuna red. Roe red. Glow red.

borrowed a bowl of rice, and learned to roll instead.
Tuna cut clean with a ruby-red sheen,
salmon burns orange beside avocado green.
Slice, rice, precise, nice. Roll, roe, bowl, whole.
Dip, drip, chopstick grip, let soy take control.
Little edible mosaics, rolled tight for the soul.
Soft beside crunch,...read full review
