Reds Wine Tavern

Nice spot in the financial district. Drinks were good for the most part - except one of the gin cocktail drinks wasn't that great.can't remember which one, though. Tried the lobster spaghetti, and it was very delicious. The servers are nice and accommodating. Will definitely visit again.

Great atmosphere, very good drinks selection, and service was accurate and fast.
We didn’t order any food, just drinks.
The crowd inside was lively and made it feel like an organized professional party.

Excellent ambience and great service. Josh recommended some amazing appetizers and wine for our guest travelling from Italy. Great place for dinner plans in the financial district.

We had a corporate event at Reds last night and they were so accommodating with our group, I really appreciate the flexibility in making the booking, not forcing a minimum spend, and the delicious food and great service. I hadn't been to Reds in a while and was happy to see it so busy and thriving on a Thursday night.

I’ve been at this place several times and I love it. Food is nice and service was amassing, Olesia did everything perfectly taking care not only about our table but about general atmosphere

Loved the drinks in this place! Good cocktails, in particular the gin ones. We only had finger food. The cheeses were great and so were the falafel balls. The rest was not vegetarian, so I cannot comment. A shout out to one of the waiters who could memorize 6 people's orders! Kudos to him

The quality and portion has taken a significant dive recently. The portion size of the lobster spaghetti shrank down to size that is very disappointing.

Forgot to take pictures of Reds but it’s great. I’ve used it for corporate events a few times and always have a wonderful experience. Great place for dinner downtown or lunch with a client

Excellent appetisers especially the Calamari. Great service by Josh who served us in a timely manner as we were heading for a meeting after.

Had the great pleasure of having Rachel serve us (a party of ten) a few nights ago. She was on top of all our needs (which were many), and did so with a smile and fantastic attitude! Food was great too, loved their unique fries! Thank you Rachel and Reds!:)

Had a Christmas lunch with our team here last week. It was the only place that took reservations for a large group in such short notice. The managers seemed to really care about providing us with a great experience. Food was absolutely delicious and came out fast. The selection of wines was great, and reasonably priced. Thanks to our server Evalina for her suggestions. Will be coming back

We've been here before, and all other times the steaks have been amazing, last night they were awful, I ordered medium red, but because they were so thick it was very bloody and chewy, sent it back twice, everything else was just ok. We found ourselves waiting for cutlery and steak knives, you definitely needed them for how tough was the meat.

Booked a reservation for a family get together of 10 people, we were all travelling from out of province and hadn't seen in each other in a few years due to COVID travel restrictions.

We were told the private dining room wasn't available, but they assured us they could fit us in the regular restaurant, and that a group of our size would be able to sit together and have a nice evening. This did not happen. They booked an office happy hour gathering right next to us, the group never sat in their chairs, were constantly bumping into us and yelling. Our dinner together was ruined. The staff said they were unable to do anything about a group in a sit down restaurant that was basically treating the place like a lounge or night club.

The Manager came and spoke to me about what was happening. He was accusatory of my group and I, as if we were the issue at the restaurant. That we should just tolerate yelling and being bumped into, and that he was powerless to control the behaviour of guests in the restaurant. Additionally, he asserted that us getting to spend time together as a family at all is a privilege and that he hadn't seen his family in 4 years. I wasn't sure at the time what that had to do with anything, and I am still so perplexed by the Manager's approach to this obvious disturbance by a group of rowdy office workers. I wasn't expecting him to offer anything free or anything special, because I was never going to go back to a place that doesn't value its patrons. However, he did say that he would waive the mandatory gratuity on the bill.

This is interesting to me, because it only negatively impacts the server who served us (who was awesome) and the kitchen staff. So this company is fine to have their staff suffer for management's negligence and incompetence. I think if the manager wanted to try and make things right through a discount, they should have comped some items, or offered a sincere apology. However, this gesture of waiving the gratuity basically forced me to decide do I punish this hard working server because her employer sucks? Very strange position to put a customer in, probably some better ways to handle it from the restaurant's perspective and not punish the staff member.

My general feeling is that this restaurant isn't honest when you make a reservation. If you have a group larger than 6, if you can't get the private dining room don't bother. They do not provide you the minimum expectation of a restaurant atmosphere (reasonable volume, space, safe, low traffic around your table). The food is fine, the drinks are average, it's not a standout for being bad or good from a food/drink perspective.

If you are in the area, and looking to eat somewhere, just go to the Cactus Club in the same building, or try one of the other similar restaurants nearby. This place isn't a reliable place to go if you have a large group. Granted, other smaller tables by this large group seemed unhappy and left as well. I will never give this place my business again.

I often dine at Reds and it never disappoints. Excellent food, service and ambience. Just when I thought it couldn't get any better, a server named Sam P went above and beyond and my guests (clients) had an unforgettable evening. Thanks Sam!

Good service but unsure why the bar closes so early, 10: 00pm is just when the party gets started
Waitress was helpful and provided wine recommendations.

Very good experience, upon arrival we had been greeted with warmth and been accommodated in a nice area. The servers and bartenders were very helpful with meal and drinks.
Special thanks to Olivier at the bar for his excellent service! Vast knowledge when it comes down to liquors and good manners, made the Reds experience really enjoyable.

Great for an informal business lunch with a excellent variety of very tasty dishes. Tasty butter chicken and burger.

We had a phenomenal experience at Red's! The food and service was amazing. Our waitresses/bartenders were Reichel, Jacquie, and Sam and they were both so considerate, thoughtful, and organized while serving a rather large crowd. They managed our group very well, so I would highly recommend this place to host an event!

Had a great and fun time here with my wife. The waitress Evelina perfectly serve us. Thank you.

Thanks you reds for the fine dining experience, but the biggest thanks to @sammm for the wonderful service & the excellent spontaneous energy she brings with her

It was a lovely and cosy lunch spot. Food was tasty and plentiful. Service was friendly and attentive. A bit noisy but better as the lunch crowd waned

Went there for dinner in Friday. It was surprisingly quiet. Ironically we didn’t order any wine! The double Caesars were very strong; no complaints however. We tried the seafood pasta and the butter chicken masala curry; they were both tasty and very well presented. Our server was awesome. We will have to come back and try the wine!

Thanks Sam for the great service. The service was a 10 out of 10.

The ambiance the food are always great at Reds.

Thank you

The food was excellent but the attitude from service ruined my meal. We made a 9: 15/9: 30 reservation and received lots of attitude from the the entire service staff. Don’t make online reservations for the 9: 15/9: 30 time slot if your staff doesn’t want to serve the customers during this time slot. Management needs to be more involved to solve these issues.

Nice spot to gather with friends. During the week there’s lots of groups and a covered patio section. The only problem is that it closes pretty early during the week. A very classic menu with healthy options. My favourite are the Cobb salad and their truffle Parmesan fries.

Tip: Go on Tuesdays for there are 50% off wine bottles, it’s a great deal!

Maybe I don't know the rules but can someone explain to me if someone got ur order and someone else also asks for ur order 20 seconds later and u tell them the first person got my order.and be confused of them being unorganized.why the second person gives me attitude like I did something wrong loool.do better

I have been here twice in the last month for both lunch and dinner. My server was amazing, knew when to check on us. The Firesteed Pino was a excellent suggestion when looking for a lighter easy drinking red. For lunch time even though it was a full restaurant the kitchen was up-to the challenge and our food was out in less than 25 minutes.

Went as part of a work lunch - great service for our group's size and food was amazing even from the prix fixe.

Service was great! We shared meals. For appetizers, the calamari was excellent. Lettuce wraps good, a wee bit salty. For mains, the steaks were good. Seafood linguine sauce was overpowering, masked the taste of the seafood. Carbonara was average.

Food was good, Colin our server was great, but for the price there should have bread or salad.
Restaurant was cold, and then cold steel tables made it even colder.

Nice place. The staff is friendly, but the service is prolonged, and the food is very salty. Not a good place to eat if you are diabetic or want to lose weight.

Sat at the bar. Very good food, loved the Australian wine, and the staff were a wealth of knowledge and had great conversations. Don’t know their names but thankyou.

My husband received a gift card to REDS from his employer. We both agreed that the food was some of the best we've ever eaten! Our steaks were succulent and cooked to perfection. We will definitely be returning here to celebrate our wedding anniversary.

Good food and prompt service. The check-in area seems a lot little congested and as there are two merging entrances it is not clear how one should proceed.

Have often eaten lunch or dinner here with people for work. It's a solid 4, food is always reasonably tasty, and service is always up to par.

Everything was good here. BUT do NOT order the ice cream for dessert. It's 6.50 and it is comes in a coffee mug that's half full with two little scoops of what i'm certain is the breyers french vanilla (the black tub). Was very disappointed especially after being very happy with the meal I ordered. For super high margin desserts like ice cream they should be more generous

Good drink selection - downtown business crowd for sure - bar service is good, table service can be a wait, food is above average

At lunchtime the service was generally fast. The food tends to be on the slightly pricier end but is very tasty. My only challenge is that it is quite crowded so having a conversation becomes challenging

Part of a chain! Food is okay, wine list, while inventive and full of private import is on pricy side. Ambiance is very good but loud!

Had half an hour free on a Tuesday evening, visited and found Red's was pretty busy, a few spaces at the bar. Pretty noisy, full of business people wearing suits and drinking wine. I was served pretty quickly, the lager was ok, reasonable price. I must have had my drink during a break period as there was only one poor lady serving the whole bar. I settled up quickly, service was nothing special and no dialogue she was rushed off her feet, although I did see the waitress engage the lady next to me recommending something on the drinks menu. Meh, unlikely to be back.

Was blown away by the tasty high end gin beverages for something totally different. The food was excellent and service was great. They know their stuff. Bit on the pricy side but worth it.

Nice environment for having a drink and the service is always great. Good place for a date but be cognizant of the price point.

REDS is a great location with a hip sports chill feel. The decor and ambiance is accented by an attentive and genuinely pleasant service staff. The burger was prepared well and the chicken wings were a solid 8. You may consider venturing outside of your comfort zone with a white sangria, great flavor and size. This is for all types of people, from business to tourist. Casual dress is acceptable. The price is high, but fair for the location. If you love beer and a bar stool, this is the place for you too. Our server gave us many ideas for fun locations around the city as well. This is is not the best location for children under 10 years old.

Reds has great food, decent vibe but one of the slowest bars in the city. Bartenders need to circulate more and not gather at the end. More service!

Seems like this location is not set to accept groups of 5 or more. We made a reservation through OpenTable and came a few minutes early, but were offered a communal table "because the restaurant was full". We didn't like the idea because we were celebrating a birthday and wanted a more intimate dinner, so we're told we will have to wait ~15 minutes. When we were shown to our table the restaurant was nearly empty, but most tables only had 4 or less seats. The food was good. The fried calamari were wonderful, the tuna sandwich was very good, but the burger was overcooked to the point of being burnt on the outside and dry. The onion rings on top of the burger were virtually only batter, no onion. Other dishes were okay, but nothing special. For a wine bar their selection by the glass was very limited and expensive, but the wine we had was good.
Can't see us going back there for any special occasion, but might drop in for a quick dinner or lunch.

Four of us had dinner there before the Leaf game on Saturday. The staff welcomed us, went through the menu and offered some appreciated suggestions. Our meals were great. I had the Seared Tuna Sandwich and it did not disappoint. Reasonably priced with a great location. You won't go wrong choosing Red's Wine Tavern. We stopped back in after the game for a drink and house made dessert.

REDS is a favourite for client meetings at our office so our office booked a reservation to have a celebration there. We had a bit of difficulty as we were just under the threshold of guests for a private party and hostesses were not very welcoming upon arrival. They were able to accommodate us at a long table and our server and the runners were lovely. We ordered a variety of small plates to share that everyone seemed to enjoy. I was a bit disappointed that my $14 cocktail was served warm. Overall, atmosphere was nice and plus points for the shuffleboard.
