Came by with my sister for a quickie drink. As always Red36 doesn't disappoint. Best ambiance even in the winter. I love to sit at the bar and have a drink and appetizers. This was my first time trying their cider sangria. It was delicious. Bartender went above and beyond making me an extra light drink so that I could stay longer but have less alcohol. I know all their bartenders, He was new but still was so pleasant. Love this place and it is still my number one.
I love going here and feeling bougie! When I went in October we sat at the bar for a bit and I had a pumpkin beer! Then I ended up a little buzzed on the patio and ordered a lobster grilled cheese! AMAZING! I ate it all in one sitting and I believe it came with fries. This is my go-to place whenever we are in Mystic, I absolutely love the vibe!!!
Very nice location on the waterfront. Very charming, modern New England feel. We popped in for Irish coffee and dessert. I look forward to coming back to try the amazing looking food that was coming out of the kitchen
If we lived in Mystic, this would be a regular happy hour spot for us. This brightly lit large restaurant had some great bargains, including $3 draft craft beer $6 mojito $8 nachos including the chicken, $6 Caesar and $8 wings. Our server was very friendly, checked in frequently and made great suggestions for our order. What more or could you want?! Oh the food was solid too!
After getting a great tip on a good restaurant we found our selves beside the Mystic River in view of the historic draw bridge. My son and I were at the end of our day and Hungry! Crystal was great as were all of the staff very high class and professional ( don't worry, dress was casually nice). 1. I found a new addiction to my charcuterie board, salmon chips (flaked smoked salmon , aioli sauce , capers on fresh homemade chips I would fly back to Connecticut for the Lobster Carbonara ( fresh made pasta firm crunchy peas) my son was sad he didn't order it for himself . I was too because that meant I had to share. And shout out to the chef for putting Chili back on the menu. Yes, if you can go here.
Came here with a large work group for lunch. Originally we wanted to go to S&P but the wait was 2 hours so we came here instead. Very spacious and we got a big table with great view of the boats and water. There was lot parking nearby. Service was very good especially when managing large groups. There was 12 of us so we sat at 2 tables they pushed together. We shared the nachos and Thai peanut calamari which I really liked! The calamari was very light and crispy and peanuts were a nice touch. I ordered the lobster roll hot and buttery and it was delicious. Large chunks of fresh lobster on a buttered roll. The fries were also very seasoned and crispy. All around very good! I would come again if I find myself out in Mystic again.
I've been dying to try out Red 36, and what better time than right before my fiance proposed?! My best friend and I came on a Saturday during linch and was successful in grabbing a table! They get busy for VERY good reasons! The restaurant is stunning, and the outside area? It's an easy winner for the most gorgeous place to dine in Mystic! We ordered clams, oysters, and their clam chowder. Since it was also my birthday, they surprised us with a slice of cheesecake, which was DELICIOUS! All the food was so fresh and we had to order a second round of the oysters! Highly recommend this place. Amazing service, great food, stunning views!
Want to be by the water on a gorgeous afternoon on a Friday. This is the place to be to give you the taste of Mystic. We arrived on the later side so we landed a unbelievable Happy Hour. A friend of mine suggested driving to Red 36 in mystic. The portions are reasonable and can be shared. The view is unbelievable w boats anchored in the harbor. Every sit on the deck has remarkable views. The service was very good on the bar where you can only get the HH prices. The shrimp flatbread, calamari along w the fish and chips was so fresh and good. Along w the 3 drink specials your allowed to choice from. You won't be disappointed.
I really tried to think of something I could find wrong with this restaurant but I couldn't! Everything from the energy, the staff, our waitress, the food, and the drinks - it was all 10/10. Come here on a nice day and sit outside to make it even better. Inside is still very nice tho. It feels very high end but casual and comfortable. Can't wait to come back!!
If you're traveling to Mystic you NEED to check out Red 36. All other restaurants do not compare to the ambiance, service and quality of food you'll receive once you're here- HANDS DOWN! First off, this place is beautiful. It's situated right on the water overlooking docks with fun boats. The layout of this restaurant is so neat. There is a beautiful bar indoors and almost like a sunroom as you get further into the building. There are multiple levels as well. The coolest area though is their deck. Seriously so beautiful. I could sit out there all day! Our server was super attentive and patient with us while we were tending to our baby. Very family friendly here- I saw a lot of families at lunchtime. The food was delicious! My husband ordered a white clam chowder and it was so flavorful! He also got a lobster roll and said it was top tier in the state. I would agree as I had a few bites of his! For my lunch I got the korean pork lettuce wraps. This was outstanding!! For just an app this filled me up for my lunch. It had so much depth of flavor between the tender pork, pickled veggies, gochujang, and crisp lettuce! Easily would get again! I cannot wait to come back here! I'd love to try a cocktail and another entree item! The lobster Cobb salad is calling my name!!
