So much potential but I believe they need some guidance... Food is good but the guys are too laid back.... Need to open up the menu offering a little

Red Light is a cozy spot with friendly staff offering delicious cocktails and a decent selection of Ramen bowls. While some found the atmosphere relaxing and the service satisfactory, others felt the broth was lacking in flavor and desserts were hit or miss. The restaurant boasts good covid protocols and a nice music selection, making it a comfortable place to dine. Some customers were blown away by the amazing experience, while others found it to be just average. Overall, Red Light is worth a visit for its unique cocktails and cozy ambiance, but be prepared for some inconsistency in food quality.
