Great Pizza. This is my new favorite spot for lunch & pizza take out. I got a really tasty Greek salad. My friend & I got the large pepperoni pizza & split the Greek salad. We at 2 pieces each & had 2 pieces each left over for dinner. The bill was under $20, including teas. This is a terrific value.…
Had Better.. Great Pizza, HORRIBLE service. A group of 6 friends and I went there and sat inside and every time we needed anything from the waitress we had to "catch her" or call her over. The only time she came by our table on her own was to give us the check. I hear the outdoor bar area is much better!…
not so great.
although the mojito's are good & the bartender at the lounge is fantastic... the food stinks.
some of my friends & i felt like trying out the new menu & went for a few appetizers, the eggplant caponata & roasted beets with feta. the beets were NOT roasted, in fact they tasted very similar to a CANNED beet hiding in strong balsamic with the smallest amount of nasty cow feta (buy some fresh local feta yo!) & the caponata with tasteless giant pimento stuffed olives (what??) & to top it off the hidden valley vinaigrette. YUCK!! we never ended up ordering dinner, mostly cause the service was wicked snotty.
you guys need to take advantage of that beautiful space & get some quality ingredients in your patrons mouths & a staff that cares about service. DO IT, it would fun for you.…
East Austinites chill inside and on the porch at this casual neighborhood bar with a Southwestern vibe..
In Short
Designed by Austin's ubiquitous retro designer Joel Mozersky, the bar's interior feels like a late 1960s suburban ranch house. With Stortini closed, the former bar area has
expanded its menu offerings while still maintaining the casual Eastside atmosphere that defines the Red House. Join other neighborhood regulars relaxing amid the western kitsch at tables inside or at one of the many picnic tables outside. Southwestern style burgers, sandwiches and salads are served up with no fuss in addition to the made-to-order pizzas.…
don't bother going here. I wanted so much for the red house to be great. i have been there like 5 times and every time I say "never again!" . Either because of the service or the tab at the end of the night, usually both, but friends keep pulling me back. But after tonight it is for real. Never again. First off the drinks are over priced and not worth it. Get a good bartender. the michelada(sp?) was undrinkable. The service is so terrible everytime ,I thought it was personal a few times. i mean terrible! they think they are too hip and act too bored to serve you . that is their job. Come to think of it , everytime we are there we feel invisible. And we are their peers no less, we have hair dos too. Except for one time when we had the most friendly bartender,I don't know his name but he has very short hair and glasses. I could not believe the rudness of the bartender tonight ,though. i know that none of the 10 people i was with tipped her . she was stuck up, rolling eyed, and didn't care. I asked if there was a minimum to charge and was told it was a two drink. but later I had to leave in a rush to help a friend. well most humans are understanding and i am sure this has happened before there, but I was talked down to like a child. TALKED DOWN TO in a nasty tone by some girl younger than me! Yet the guy next to me had just opened and closed his tab with one drink.I was speechless as my friend kindly paid my tab for the gross michelada(sp) that i didn't drink and left. Smoke started coming out of my ears on the way out and I have plenty to say to that girl now, when it doesn't count.(isn't it always that way?) Too Bad , the place is close to my house and i like the patio alot. I have not heard any good feedback about this place and i hope the owners hire some people for their good service skills not their good hair.…
