Red is an interesting restaurant and definitely caught my attention. First of all, the location is phenomenal. There is a large "RED" logo on the Southern Wall fully exposed to Bird Road which is how I even noticed the restaurant in the first place. Inside is very comfortable. The dining area is ery clean and the atmosphere is close resemblance of the ever so popular Colombian cuisine "Los Perros". The restaurant plays music at a medium level of the light electronic genre that becomes very pleasant the longer you stay inside. I ordered a very well priced special which includes a portion of churrasco, and two sides which I chose as french fries, rice, and mashed potatoes. Red's BIGGEST downfall is after you order. Their motto is 'Simply, Quality, Fast, Food', but there is absolutely NOTHING fast about this place. Eating alone, my order took approximately 20 minutes before I received it. I twiddled my thumbs, watched tv, heck! I managed to finish a game of sodoku before my meal came out. BUT! Once my food arrived, I started eating. This small restaurant on Bird Road and 139th Avenue is capable of cooking up some DELICIOUS churrasco. I was impressed with how the meat was cooked and tasted. The meat had no raw areas and maintained a moist, flavorful taste that shocked me where I sat. The following sentence is not an exaggeration. I did not use a knife to cut the steak. The meat was tender enough to cut with my teeth, (and i don't mean ripping apart like stray dog). The fries, rice and mashed potatoes were all very good but seemed to be unimportant when you have an 8"x2"x0.5" steak dominating your plate. Their prices are very good and the dining area is entertaining enough to recommend this place to anyone who enjoys good food at a great price.
