    Authentic outdoor/in car dining that's not a chain. Fast friendly service, food was hot and looked great! Rootbeer like you remember.. when it was called sasparilla! Rich, sweet, foamy served in an ice cold mug. Footlong coney was huge- probably over a pound with cheese and chili. Definitely worth pulling off the freeway for.. plenty of parking too!

    I really love old fashioned drive-up restaurants like this and was so excited when I came across it while planning my road trip in Michigan. I also love a good root beer and was impressed when this one was served in a frosty mug. Chicken strips were standard but I'm not a big fan of crinkle cut fries and pre-packaged ranch. It's cool being served in the car though and it makes you feel like you've stepped back in time.

    Save the calories. I tried a cheeseburger, mushroom swiss burger, and a diet root beer. The hamburger meat tastes like unseasoned, well-done hamburger. It is not good. Once here was enough. Staff was friendly though.

    No idea what the hype is about for this place The chili dog had ground beef chopped finely, very little Chili flavoring and a small hot dog which was not even hot. The onion rings were just so so. The Cole slaw had very little sauce on it. So disappointing as I had wanted to try this place for 2 years. The fries were good. The Italian beef was on a soft hoagie roll - the roll was good. The beef not so much. Our server was very good but not enough to make up for the mediocre food. No return trip

    Red's has been a family mainstay since they opened. The best in every way! Dont miss the root beer. We have never had a bad meal or service.

    Great old style drive in. They have lots of parking, benches, and even a drive through. They are pet friendly as well.

    Great food and root beer! My kids loved eating in the car. Also, they have a gluten free bun, so that is a plus!

    When is the last day they are going to be open this year?

    I wish I knew, I'd be there! We live in Arizona and was visiting.

    Is there inside or outside seating?

    It is outside seating on picnic tables.

    What year did they open?

    Sometimes you just want something different for breakfast, you know? So we stopped by the Wendy's…read morefor some of their breakfast sandwiches- instead of going for another crossan'wich or McMuffin, like we usually do- hey, sometimes it's good to branch out, you know? The service at this Wendy's is actually very good- we got our food out and were away in a short time- only a few minutes! (It really kind of puts the damper on fast food when the food's not fast, you know?) We weren't asked to pull ahead and wait, we didn't have to wait while they fixed the order, they managed to get it right the first time. That's... pretty much everything you could ask for in a fast food place, yeah? So we got the food home, and proceeded to chow on down- they were actually still warm when we got them home- the cheese on the sandwiches was still sort-of gooey and wonderful, which made it even better. There's a definite difference to the breakfast sandwiches from Wendy's as opposed to McDonald's or Burger King: for one, the Wendy's sandwiches come on soft buns, as opposed to the english muffins, pancakes, and other things at some other places. I mean, let's face it, if you're trying to do two things at once and one of them is eating, do you really need to have your teeth wrestle with a tough crust or edge that you just can't get through? It's easier eating on the go, especially if you're trying to drive- well, that and sometimes you just want a bun instead of an english muffin that's tough or a croissant that's falling apart and clinging to the wrapper. The sausage is also a better difference than anywhere else- where the sausage from a place like McDonald's or Burger King might be a little sweet and mildly savory, Wendy's has chosen a pretty savory blend- and I like it! It's certainly a pleasant kick in the taste buds and it'll wake you up with a bite. Especially combined with the potatoes that were served with it- they were actually pretty tasty, and went well with a little ketchup- though maybe they could stand to not be fried as long, maybe? They were kind of tough on the sides, but that's just a minor quibble. We'll definitely be back for more sandwiches in the morning!

    0 stars - stay away!!!!!!! They almost always and I mean almost always get the order wrong…read more Slow, rude ( I ask for a hot sauce packet) you would have thought ask for her right arm. Oh....did I mention the almost always cold fries....
