El precio módico, la comida excelente, cantidad satisfactoria

Went out for an enjoyable motorcycle ride and stopped here for lunch. Ordered the Ruben sandwich, with fries, and coleslaw. The meat was piled high and the taste was very good. The service was great, the prices were fair, and the restaurant was down home, with an old Florida like atmosphere. We sat outside on the deck and had a very nice lunch. When in the area I would definitely stop in again.

Went to Reds today with a friend and the kids. The service was fantastic, the waitress was super sweet and attentive.
The fried green tomatoes are EVERYTHING! Always good every time we go.
My son ordered the breakfast burger and loved it!

Now to the negatives:
We ordered water- absolutely disgusting. It tastes like old dirty socks smell. So we decided to order Coke and Diet Coke- again absolutely disgusting I’m guessing because of how horrible the lake water is they use as drinking water. The waitress felt horrible and tried explaining it was due to the “rain water”. As a business owner you should most definitely have extra filters or a softener system in place. None of us drank anything while we were there, which made for a not so great brunch.

The cinnamon roll. My daughter, who is 9, ordered the cinnamon roll. It was big but that’s it. It was cold and extremely dry. She asked the waitress to heat it up in the microwave, which she did. It didn’t help with the dryness but at least made the icing not hard. My 9 year old child said she never wanted to go back and that I should give them my cinnamon roll recipe lol.

They have nothing for vegans. My 11 year old is vegan due to health issues and the only thing she could eat was slices of watermelon and the cinnamon apples, which I’m pretty sure is just for filling in a cup. It was so sweet she couldn’t eat them. In 2024 it’s about time you have options for everyone. I felt really bad that she couldn’t eat breakfast or lunch with us.

I had eggs, sausage, and toast. I was expecting good sausage links- it is a breakfast place but I guess it’s my own fault for assuming. Instead I received sausage patties- if they were real sausage patties I would’ve been fine. These are like the ones that come frozen out of a bag with no taste. Definitely not quality that should be in a restaurant but more on a fast food breakfast sandwich.
The eggs were cold and flavorless.

I’m mainly giving it 3 stars because of our waitress. If not I probably would’ve only given it 1-2 stars. Most of the food was gross/dry/cold. We couldn’t drink anything while we were eating. It just was not a good experience. I was grateful I only brought 3 of the kids instead of our entire family of 8. I think we will continue going to New England cafe instead of here.

Reds is overpriced for the quality you receive and just not worth it at all. I’m guessing that’s why they no longer have lines out the door on a Saturday. That should’ve told us everything before we even walked in the door. Small changes could make a world of difference for this restaurant.

All I can say is oh my God. They're simple description for this is that it's scrumptious sausage gravy. They did not let me down it's a breakfast just by itself you don't have to add eggs or nothing. NEW: I am issuing a cross~the-area notice that there are so many really innovative and what I like to call gourmet grunge Recipes like the ones you see on the gourmet cooking shows and things don’t seem to change very often at many of our local restaurants so I am asking that chefs do specials quite often with really innovative or gourmet grunge items. I’m gonna have my own rating system from now on we’re at the beginning of every review I’m going to say whether I’m bored with this place and they’ll be three degrees of this. Bored, relatively excited, and exciting and innovative.

We finally visited Red’s on a Saturday morning in July, 2024. We arrived fairly early, so it was fairly quiet. We have been trying to try Red’s for months, but just could not get it done. They are only open Tuesday - Sunday, 7Am - 2PM. So they are breakfast and lunch only.
So anyway, we arrived around 8AM. As I said, Red’s was quiet when we arrived. We were told to sit where we would like. We chose a table inside, instead of out on the deck. Then we met our waitress. Her name was Shannon. (I hope I spelled that correct) Anyway, Shannon was a pleasure to meet, and was top notch. Originally from Texas, Shannon made our breakfast visit a delight. I ordered Eggs Benedict (which was very good). The potatoes were great. But I wanted to try the sausage gravy. So Shannon added a little on my potatoes, so I could give it a try. So I got to have both.
The wife had French toast, with extra real butter. (Thank you Shannon) Which the wife also really enjoyed. So our meal was excellent in all respects.
The prices seemed fair to us. The portions were not going to let us leave hungry. What more could we want. But let mer be fair. We really enjoyed Red’s. Folks who only like high class dining, may not be as happy as we were. So remember, it’s more of a country rustic style restaurant, with good food. If you’re OK with that. You may enjoy Red’s.
The staff all seemed very friendly and seemed to want folks to have a great experience. One even went out a squeegeed the dew off of the windows, so folks could have a nice view of a beautiful morning. It probably cleaned them as well. Just nice folks.
As I already said, the restaurant itself was of rustic style. Lots of wood, pretty dark (that some folks may not care for), and just my style of a country eatery. I felt home again. It’s been a while since we have been in a private restaurant instead of all the chain restaurants that seem to be the normal anymore. I will say that I didn’t care for how the light bulbs in the table lamp, over our table, shined in my face. I had to put my hat on so that the brim would block it. Unfortunately, that goes against my rule of not wearing my hat at the dinner table.
The wife said that the ladies room continued the rustic theme. And was clean. So if you like rustic style eateries, Red’s is your place. I normally do not give out a lot of five star ratings, unless they are above and beyond in their field. Red's is not perfect. But they are quite good. I gave them five stars. More importantly, we will definitely be back.

Good Restaurant! The service was really good as well. I got the corned beef hash breakfast and it was really good. I loved the decor!
