What Nina Gonçalves likes about Red House:
I live this place! Except the Caesar salad with shrimp THREE burned shrimp for 8 dollars and a very small salad … not good and not worth the money. The rest of the food was great. The waitstaff, fabulous A great experience. View all feedback. What José Zavala doesn't like about Red House:
We were seated outside, which was comfortably ventilated, but one guest encountered some drips from recent rain. The service was attentive, and the food was tasty but a slightly more generous serving would have been nice. View all feedback.

Unfortunately, we didn't cost our meal here. It's disappointing. If you are looking for a good tasting, I would not recommend the lobster or the short risotto....

Such a sweet place for brunch! It is rather expensive, but we had a great time, the food was good, and service was friendly.

The Red House restaurant offers a charming and historical dining experience in the heart of Harvard Square. With impeccable service and a cheerful atmosphere, guests can enjoy delicious dishes such as swordfish with spinach and seafood empanadas. The menu may be lacking in lighter lunch options, but the overall food quality is fantastic with standout items like clam chowder and grilled octopus. In addition, the drink selection is excellent, making it a great spot for cocktails. While some dishes like lobster and risotto may not meet expectations, the overall experience at The Red House is sure to leave diners satisfied and eager to return. Whether you're looking for a romantic dinner, a family-friendly brunch, or a fun night out with friends, The Red House is a true gem worth exploring.
