I love this place. Normally I get the chicken tenders. They are the best. You can't go wrong with…read morethem. However, this time I decided to get a burger. It was really good. Lots of flavor and very juicy. The patty needed a little salt but otherwise it was good. The sweet potato fries stole the prize though. Man are the spectacular. Perfectly cooked and seasoned to perfection with just a little salt. The atmosphere is good. Very casual. It's not full service so if you run out of your favorite soft drink, then that's on you! It is free refills. So get up and go get more. I'd definitely recommend this place. I believe the chicken tenders are better than the burger, but the burger isn't anything to sneeze at either.

We are from out of town and wanted to try a local spot, well this was a bad first impression of Joplin, I hope the remainder of our stay is better than this experience. It makes me very irate to have a server giving dirty looks and side eying my husband. These are my freedoms and this establishment needs to have some training on racial sensitivity and harassment. Interracial couples be warned, you will be treated differently and without respect. The only reason this is 2 stars is because the food wasn't bad.

Kind of loud for me, as I am overly sensitive to loud sounds, reflections, and hard surfaces. I think most people would have enjoyed the music more if it was a little lower.

The burger is definitely freshly made because it kept falling apart in the bun, so i gave up and just ate it without the bun. Pepper Jack Cheese was nice and melted. Fries were hot, and the service was friendly. Place could use some updating, but I'm sure that will come once they are more established in the building. Always enjoyed their food truck, so I'm glad the quality didn't change once they got a brick and mortar place. We will be back.

We know we're there when we see their iconic neon sign crowning the entrance! Still a favorite with many, there was a steady stream of customers coming in and sitting around the counter-dining-only restaurant. Service, as in the past, was speedy and served with a smile. They are closed on Sunday and Monday. Our go to is always the tamales - mom's favorite. On this day I enjoyed a bundle, 3 @ $3.55, and a light splattering chili. Their tamales are more comparable to a Mississippi Delta tamale than the tamale you would eat at a Mexican restaurant. They always ask if you want dill pickles and sliced onions on the side - for an additional charge. Their griddle cooked burgers are good, too. Spaghetti Red is a signature dish that many swear by, has been on the menu forever, and is a Fred & Red's Classic. This dish is a layered plate of spaghetti noodles, topped with tamales and covered with chili. I've never been brave enough to try this favorite but make sure you're hungry! It's a plate full! They serve fries and tater tots, as well as, desserts. Also, the have frozen tamale bundles (of three), chili and other options to go! Check out their Carry Out menu!

I ordered the "Glaze & Blaze" (glazed doughnut bun, beef, bacon, cheese, & sweet BBQ sauce). A marshmallow cream w/ the sweet potatoes added another notch of sweet Vs salty/savory flavors.
