Reds Incorporated - West Coxsackie

We had a great time here. The neon sign pulled us in, but the atmosphere and food is fantastic. Some old school recipes (broiled fish is excellent). Shrimp dish was very well cooked. Try one of their specialty drinks. I had a cocktail made with theirhomegrown berries (strong and delicious).

I've looked at the pictures and reviews for a long time and haven't been clamoring to go here but I will say I was pleasantly surprised by the ambiance inside. We were seated right away and our waitress and the bartender were pleasant and friendly. Myhusband and I shared a dozen oysters and wow. I've had lots of raw oysters in my days. These were fresh and large! My husbandhad the fried platter and was pleased but didn't love the bread crumb topping they cook onto the mashed potatoes. Odd choice. Ilove seafood and sushi and have never tried soft shell crab which was a special. You can get it sautéed or fried and I went forsautéed. Unfortunately I really didn't like it! Not the restaurants fault. It was a texture thing where I felt like I waschewing on a fingernail to get to the crab meat. I would love to go back on a Thursday for their $1 oyster and $20 bottle ofpreseco night!

This was our 3rd time visiting Reds and probably last, we deal with the RV dealer just up the road and it is convenient to stop in for lunch. The decor is very different, some may call it nostalgic and some might call it damn old, my husband and I are at opposite ends of this debate. I had the Asian bowl and my husband the Surf and turf burger, both were pretty good, nothing to rave about. The brioche hamburger rolls are great though. The real complaint is the prices, our server asked if I would like rice or noodles with my bowl without saying it was $3 extra for the noodles and I added shrimp at $6 so a $13 bowl became $22. My husbands burger was $17 defiantly on the high side. Here’s the kicker we both got tap water with lemon and they charged 50 cents for the lemon wedges!!!

Dessert had obvious fuzzy mold on it. Service: Take out Meal type: Other Price per person: $10–20 Food: 1 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 1
