 | 	- It was my first time dining at Reds on Friday night -- casual upscale dining.
The location is great and the decor is very interesting. Take a look at the ceiling and you'll see some of their light fixtures made of wine glasses and beer bottles. The servers were friendly, but as it became busier throughout the night, their presence was a bit lacking. 
I started with a Pear Bellini and it tasted all right, but I thought it was overpriced (as with many other items on the menu).
With appetizers to start, we tried the Calamari, Butcher Board, Lobster Guacamole, and best of all, the Crispy Potato Flatbread. The Crispy Potato Flatbread is a must-try. All the ingredients blend together so nicely, and the extra crispiness to the flatbread is like the cherry on top. I have to mention the tortillas that came with the Lobster Guacamole were greasy, but they were really nice and crispy, like they were straight-out-of-the-oven fresh.
For my main, I ordered the Chicken Carbonara. The egg was perfectly poached, and the pasta was perfectly al dente. This cream-less approach made this dish look like a low-fat carbonara (as one of my coworkers called it) and it tasted like so, except all the rigatoni at the bottom of my plate were completely soaked in oil. 
All in all, I would return just to have their Crispy Potato Flatbread again, despite the slow service when it gets busy.
