Never been before but wanted to see what recent rains had done for the lake and had heard people…read moretalk about the burgers here so we went by on a Saturday. I wasn't overly optimist when we got there. The bar and grill had more of a bar feel than a grill feel and didn't seem overly clean, and we were the only people in the place the entire time we were there. The burger made up for it though! Juicy and cheesy with fresh veggies and a tasty bun. They have a burger, a double, a triple, and one with 4 patties!! The American cheese made it just perfect. Onion rings were good, nothing too special but nice and crunchy.

There is a roomy dining area above and another on entry where there is also a small bar area. Ordering is at the counter from a wall menu. Lots of variety of burgers. We got fried pickles, a chicken sandwich, a burger and a patty melt with onion rings. The patty melt was buttery and nicely prepared. Total for 3 with 2 drinks and the appetizer was about $75 with gratuity. I would image this could be quite a rocking venue on a Friday or Saturday night. Good for family dining or meeting up with friends. Parking onsite is generous. Definitely a Texas vibe if you find yourself in the area!

Our first time taking the boat to Medina Lake and this is where we came to launch it. Hubby…read moreremembered coming here once maybe 40 years ago with his cousin to launch their boat. We had a sticker price shock... $15 Launch Fee $10 additional car parking We weren't going to shop around, we are here and we are going to get on the water NOW! Lol. Well, come to find out, there really isn't much of a choice on this lake so just come prepared. Plus there is a lock box for overnight or early launches. If you are going to be gone on the water for the weekend, the charge is per day. The boat ramp itself and dock are great. The older lady at the counter that helped us both before the launch and afterwards with our burger order was really nice and helpful. Huge indoor patio with huge fans plus a nice outdoor patio surrounded by tropical plants. I could see this being a great place to enjoy a band on Sat nights. Red's does not have gas (although sign says they do) but we were told the marina down the street does. We didn't need it right then but was checking for the future. We made a note to always pre-purchase gas... in Hondo, Castroville, or Lakehills coming from the other direction about 10 miles as there aren't any stations around in the country roads that we traveled on getting there. I would suggest getting their to Red's early as parking is limited. We were there on Sat 31 Mar about 2pm and it was already packed. I can't imagine what it's like in the summer time. I'm sure we'll be back again as soon as we have a free weekend. Happy Boating!

It was well worth a little scenic drive and the knowledge of the whereabouts. We will definitely be eating out there soon as they are open again. We are not exactly sure why they are closed because of the lake being low maybe? However it looked beautiful out there and even though the roads were windy and narrow, it was great! 7-30-22

The Texas toast was fragrant, and the flavours of the sandwich blended very well together. My cousin got the fried catfish platter, which didn't have much of a flavour, but he said that means it's a river catfish. He is a catfish connoisseur and liked it. The jalapeno hush puppies that came with it were excellent. However, the coleslaw had a very odd flavour, and neither of us liked it. It tasted acrid to me. I didn't really like the fries because of the seasoning, but I still had a few. The server initially gave my cousin water instead of the sweet tea that he ordered. They served us our water and sweet tea in mason jars, which looked very nice, but the water was not pleasing to my taste buds as it tasted like unfiltered tap water.

I had a mushroom swiss burger and onion rings with ranch...so yummy. Cons and the reason for the 3 stars...There weren't any clean tables and the menus were dirty...we saw that there was only one guy seating, getting drinks and serving. I'm guessing he was also the cook, because it took an hour and a half to get our food. Another guy showed up near the end of our meal and was helping take orders. They were obviously short staffed, but I was proud of the guys...they were hustling.
