Red Lantern Restaurant & Lounge

Nice glassy place

We had a large group of 11 and were sat at a large, round table. This was great! and the center of the table spun around so ti was easy to share food. The waiter was really nice, but forgot or didn't hear someone at the table order an appetizer on 2 separate occasions. Once when everyone else did, and another time before the meals came out. After the meals arrived he did not check on the table for a while. All the fried food, like calamari, were very salty. at the end of the meal we tried to order coffee but were told they only had decaf and they offered us an Espresso Martini. Later this was confirmed with the manager who said they ran out earlier that day. This was a better explanation than the waiter gave, but still, there is a coffee shop next door that they could have bought some from before they closed.

We’ve made a reservation but our ride hit a traffic jam and we were 15 minutes late. We called ahead of time and were assured it was not a problem. Asked to wait 10 minutes for a table and 1 hour later we were still waiting. Not good. Service was good. Food and s good but be aware of spicy dishes. Price is reasonable bit more on expensive side.

I would recommend Red Lantern for a friend looking to have more of a wild night, but not for a birthday good time dinner and drinks. I left in my specifications of my reservation that it was a birthday, and the options for this event were never specified or given to me. The food was okay, not too amazing or tasty.nI did not like the DJ at all. Very inconsistent with the music genres, you could be listening to the 2000s and the next 20 seconds be listening to High school musical Troy and Gabriella and then 2019 rap. We also payed for two tables, and our space was completely violated by another group that had like a party of about 20 people in just one or two tables. This made the experience super uncomfortable because we didn’t have any space to dance or stand without being pushed. We did spend a considerable amount of money that night, we would think we could at least sip from our drinks without them getting spilled from so much pushing.nOur waiter was super nice ! And so was the promoter. But the ambiance over all for a birthday dinner and party was completely different than expected. The birthday cake that we ordered was so hard that the birthday person didn’t even eat it. Putting a spoon through it required a hammer.nnI would come back to red lantern, just not for any special occasion. This reminded me of a house party in college: sweaty and messy.

Beautiful ambiance but a bit loud due to the size of the space and all the brick walls. The food is creative, nicely presented and tasty, too. Definitely worth trying if you're interested in an Asian fusion upscale experience.
