It was awesome to have people playing the blues while we sat and enjoyed our food and their music! We both ordered cheeseburgers and a soda with a small french fry to share between us. The young guy who was serving us forgot that we ordered a small fry and hopefully we will not get cold food to our table. Great service here, he doubled the order at no extra charge, so he said. And the burgers are still warm.! We got the bill and he charged us for a Large fry!! Whiskey Tango Foxtrot. We missed seeing Pat there and don't know if we will return before they close the place for Good. read more

Outstanding hot dogs and some of the best fries around - served hot! Thank you! We really wanted a hot dog and stopped here. They don't have a drive through, but it's definitely worth the stop to go inside and order the takeout. The restaurant is cute! Old time slot and pinball machines, cozy tables and an older style bar. There is also a side room where blues music is played every Sunday according to the waitress. I loved that and look forward to returning to enjoy music and a sit down meal. read more

Red’s Steak and BBQ - 2 Vienna beef hot dogs and a large order of fries - Steakhouses Near Me - Richmond, Illinois

We ordered the Chicago dog (2) with fries and a cheeseburger dinner to go. This really hit the spot ! Friendly service in a large dining room with bar and music area for the Sunday bands. We loved the antiques throughout the restaurant and bar. They have a large menu including daily specials, pizza and broasted chicken. They even have a doggie menu. We will be back to dine in! read more

Where to start. After reading the online history and then recalling how good their old restaurant was in Rosemont, we decided to try this place. We went on a Saturday evening and while it wasn't very busy, the service lagged. I can forgive slow service at times IF the food is good. While all the descriptions of the food sound great, it was definitely lacking appeal. The loaded potato soup came out and resembled lumpy brown oatmeal. I've never seen potato soup like that. Didn't taste good at all. Another dish we tried was the brisket. That too was not good and was tough. (Our server, to her credit, did remove this from our tab) I had the broiled codfish, which was ok, but came with one potato pancake and some overcooked green beans. The fish was ok but not the potato pancake. Not a good value for the price. Another member of our party had a basic cheeseburger which was alright. The decor is very old and in need of an update. Could use a good cleaning. I am convinced the addition of gambling machines and cheap drinks draws most of the patrons in this neck of the woods. The building exterior is in rough shape and the parking lot needs more lighting. We left feeling unsatisfied and not wanting to return. read more

Excellent food, service, and decor. I had the ribeye sandwich, the poppers and a malt and all were excellent.

A Nice surprise! Stopped here on our way back from Lake Geneva. Their feature menu item is a stuffed hamburger and I will say it was so much better than expected. The burgers are huge. The meat is fresh, I am not sure, but I think they grind it there. The onion rings are also really good; hand dipped and battered. Great fries. Don't let the outside appearance fool you. The place is rustic and maybe a little kitschy, but think of it as character. read more

Saturday night, really hungry. Never been to Richmond. Read the restaurant history online Heuer family, Leyden township, Great I used to work at Gottlieb Hospital, drove Leyden all the time. Walked in 2 big rooms empty. Sign said 'wait to be seated' and we did for 3 minutes. No one came. Bar in the rear, behind a big window partition. Two patrons there staring at us. Many tall window partitions. All filthy. Place has not been washed in years, floor was filthy. Windows looking outside were filthy. So we left. Outside was unkept, overgrown, in need of paint, window washing, grass & weed cutting. On outside of building, 2 big 3-way extension cords, running to (I'm guessing here) refridgeration units. No X-mas lights, so wasnt for that. No cover for weather so an accident waiting to happen. I think they should pay me for my 5 minute review as a mystery shopper. Ms. R J Barcellona read more

Just stopped by for a quick burger. Very clean table and we had our pick of the place. Waiter very friendly. Lots of things to choose from on menu. Had awesome pizza burgers! Reasonable prices. We were surprised it didn't have more business on a Saturday night. read more

Pride in the product coming into the dining room and customer service are non-existent at Red's. It took over 45 minutes to get served when there were only 10 people in the dining room. Granted, a group of five were there for a weekly meeting, and their entrees were served at the same time, BUT don't bring out a rotisserie chicken that is so dry that a sip of water was needed to swallow EACH BITE!! Come on, two servers, probably one cook and you felt that a dried up chicken is acceptable? Then we have to argue after taking two bites from that crusty chicken for a reduction in the check? How long do you think you will be in business with this kind of a customer experience? read more

Red's is a very unique place. My wife and I visited around 8pm on a Saturday night. We were a little apprehensive walking in, but very glad we did. It's got the old, rustic, route 66 cross country roadtrip sidestop feel. It made us wonder about the building and it's history. I had a stuffed burger and she had a pizza. Both were very good and fairly priced. We both also had a couple of drinks. Mine was a tall for only $5 which is unheard of. She had a few glasses of wine, again only $5 each. Service was pretty good. While it's certainly got a different feel than a more modern restaurant, it's still a place I'd recommend anyone give a try. We'll certainly be back. read more

We have been coming to Red's for years and have always loved it. If you like a family friendly atmosphere and the type of comfort you remember at great family restaurants you will love Red's! The owner is a very hard working man who always comes out to the tables to talk to people and make sure they are happy. The steaks are amazing and the stuffed burgers are beyond great! This is a family owned business and we love supporting it! The waitresses are attentive and friendly. If you miss the family restaurants you remember from days gone by, try Red's, you will love it. read more

Red’s Steak and BBQ - Front dining area. Very homey and comfortable. - Steakhouses Near Me - Richmond, Illinois

We had the fish fry,appetizer platter,and the clam chowder which was very good.The service was fair but not bad.As far as the atmosphere I was there to eat but all in all what we had was very good and would recommend a visit. read more

Finally tried this place out. Can't say I'll be back. The food itself took over an hour, and the place was slow on a Saturday night. Service wasn't bad, but to have a runner for 4 small tables, and a waitress that really didn't do anything besides bring the food out, the experience wasn't worth it. read more

Went last night for the first time, had the stuffed burger, not bad, not good... Only table till we leave, should be the tip off... In dire need of updating, very tired. Condiments with 2016 expiration! Yikes. Won't be back. Regards, JT read more

Just discovered this gem of a BBQ restaurant. Last week enjoyed some of the best ribs ever, and went back tonight for a huge, delicious pulled pork sandwich. Dog friendly patio, too. Highly recommend. read more

We were so disappointed when we went for dinner at Red's. We were looking forward to an awesome Steak Dinner and found out they no longer serve dinners, The menu is mostly sandwiches. It's been a couple of years since we were there. The place is run down and in need of a deep cleaning. It looks like you are in just another Wisconsin bar when you walk in. Very Sad. read more

We wanted to try a new place for a fish fry so stopped here. The carpet was filthy- really disgusting. The service started out well, but by the end of our meal the waitress must have forgotten about us. She took our credit card and never came back. We finally had to go retrieve it from the bar (where it had been left unattended) ourselves. Hard to fathom how she forgot us since the place was practically empty other than a group of regulars at the bar. As for the food, the bread was tasty, but the fish and potato pancake were greasy, and the iced tea was made from a powder mix. We left feeling disgusted. The only reason I'm giving 1 star is because there's no option to give zero. Terrible! read more

This is the best spot in the area to get a prime rib dinner. The food is exceptional, the service is stellar. If you have a taste for prime rib, come here. You will not be disappointed. read more

Love the ribs here, best that I have had in a long time. My wife had the prime rib and felt it was to die for as well. This is a must stop for great bbq! Service was also excellent, and the atmosphere was fantastic as we took advantage of the outside seating. read more

While I love sushi-the fish fry came out raw! The cook apparently wanted to sit at the bar to refresh himself with a couple of beers instead of cooking. Won't be back. read more

Stopped in for the Friday night fish fry. The server was very friendly, but the wait to get drinks, soup, and salad was very long considering they weren't that busy. Once we were done with the soup and salad, the wait was just as long to get our fish. The food was good, but nothing special. Over all, I'd say it was OK, but I wouldn't rush back. There are many places with a much better fish fry in the vicinity. read more

Stopped in for a special family dinner. There is nothing good that I can say about this place. It needs a good cleaning, a more competent staff, a real chef, food that is edible, and some atmosphere. Not a pleasant place. Will not return. If I could give it zero stars I would. read more

Horrible experience & the food was even worse. We stopped in early on a Saturday...around 4:00pm. There were only a few tables of people, yet our food took over an hour. When the food did arrive the kids chicken fingers were fried in beer batter and overly greasy. My BBQ sandwich was so dry it was impossible to eat, I actually sent it back and ate nothing. My husband had prime rib, gross....all fat & his plate was dirty. The server was terrible and seemed overwhelmed. I have no plans on returning! read more

Wish there was Zero stars to give Worse place ever !!!!!! We waited over an hour then asked where our food was the owner came out and said shut up and sit down food will be out in a minute. The place was filthy 5 tables still had food and plates on them even though we were the only ones in the whole place. On line Owner says under new management my eye Stay away from this place just go next door to Dog n Suds get food fresh and hot in 10 minutes or less read more

Focus on the food and ignore the decor. We have been twice and enjoyed friendly service and great food. We have dined on brisket, ribs, t-bone, and prime rib. Steak fries, garlic dressing for salads. Everything is good. Live music on Sunday 2-6, worth a visit. read more

This was one of the worst experiences I've had at a restaurant!!!! Food was nothing special. My bf had rotisserie chicken and said it was incredible dry, he had taken drinks of water as he was eating to wash it down.The portions are very small. Service sucked big time. Ordered Italian beef sandwiches.The waitress wrote it down came back 20 min. later and said we don't have Italian beef. Then when we got ready to leave they showed us our bill and said we overcharged you..they already ran the credit card, so they couldn't take it off. Just absolutely ridiculous from the get go. This was our first and last time of going there! read more

We were visiting Lake Geneva and Red's was near our hotel. We went for dinner on a Saturday night and sat on the outdoor patio. The service was exceptional. Susie was so sweet and made us feel right at home. The food was excellent with hearty portions. If you're looking for a friendly neighborhood vibe with great food give Red's a try. And we loved the free homemade beer cheese with crackers! read more

Needs a complete restaurant make over. Premium drinks??? Staff seems helpful but needs direction. Food is good and bad, depends on what you order. I will not be back read more

I wanted to like this place so badly. I bought a restaurant.com gift cert which at least covered one of the overpriced meals. Started with nice fresh salads so I thought there was hope. The vinegar and oil bottles were gooey to the touch. It all went down hill from here. My husband ordered the most expensive steak (porterhouse $23) and I got the queen cut prime rib ($17). The steak was big in diameter but very thin. Cooked VERY unevenly and soooooo tough. The prime rib was very tough as well. I looked for reviews and most said 4 out of 5 stars. The waitress was attentive but we didn't have the heart to tell her the meal sucked. Didn't even eat 1/2 of our steaks...we were starving and rarely leave food on or plates!. Highly disappointed to the point that we were worried we might get sick from the meal. Luckily that didn't happen. read more

Gross....everything in the place was sticky and gross. Including the crackhead staff. My stuffed burger was semi good but this place was so disgusting and the service sooo slow I will never be back. read more

Never had a bad meal here and we have been here many times. Older decor antiques and very easy mood. The crew has always been very nice to us and my family will be back. Great steak and chops and fish fry give it a chance read more

Came here on a Wednesday, not a lot of people in the parking lot. We knew they switched up the restaurant recently, so we thought we'd give it a shot since we wanted burgers for dinner. We ordered the Oysters Rockefeller, which were great, & the stuffed burgers. We had to ask for lettuce and tomato, but the burgers were phenomenal! Great prices too! The only downside was slow service. Will be back. read more

The service was friendly but a bit on the slow side. The atmosphere is outdated and unusual, you couldn't recreate it if you tried. I had the ribs which were quite good. My friend had the pork chops and said they were decent as well. I'd go back I suppose because I enjoy these types of wired unique things. read more

Food was good! I had BBQ half chicken and my wife had pork chops. Came with soup or salad, green beans and baked potato. More food than i could eat. Service was great. Our waitress was very nice and brought everything quickly. Good prices. We'll be back. read more

Red’s Steak and BBQ - Steakhouses Near Me - Richmond, Illinois

As a Southerner, this is the first time I've found proper BBQ north of the Carolinas, and that's saying something. The staff is friendly, the beer selection is good and very well priced, and the food is solid. I can't fathom actually living in Richmond and never eating here, so take the other reviews with a grain of salt. Some people are impossible to please and like to be loud about it. read more

Twice a month on 2nd & 4th Fridays they have Blues Music from 7pm till around 9 or so. The normal specials all week, fish fry, prime rib, etc. I dont normally like prime rib but I was pleasantly surprised and the chef / owner Patrick blackened it for me. The staff is pleasant and helpful. The bar is a little limited with selections but, mostly the standard booze. Try the pulled pork nachos! read more
