| - I've never been a fan of the Red Room, the only reason it gets 2 stars is location, sangria and setting so that a group can clump close enough together to socialize with each other.
A lot of people I know just enjoy going here, and I don't see why. Their food is not great, Chinatown is right there if someone is looking for proper Chinese food. As for their menu Italian menu options, it's just mediocre. Their Pad Thai is a favourite option but since I'm no Pad Thai fan my opinion would be biased. My "favourite" menu item is the grilled cheese sandwich, and one Italian dish actually, but I can't quite remember what it was. The sangria served here does have it's reputation, and it is pretty good.
Their service is what turned me off initially, it's very very slow and not very friendly either. And while the speed may be due to the fact it's busy often, I still think they could do a better job at it.
I suggest the Green Room if you want a setting like this (not a huge fan of the green room either, but I prefer that over Red Room) and go to a restaurant on Baldwin Village if you want good food (or somewhere in Chinatown).
