The Red Grill Mexican Restaurant

A great vibe, delicious margaritas and scrumptious food! Overall, an amazing addition to the neighborhood after this space was empty for so long.

I was pleasantly surprised by this place! I’ve come here a few times for dinner and really enjoyed it. The food is tasty, servers are friendly, and ambiance is pleasant.

They seating arrangement is decent - there are tables outside the restaurant on the sidewalk, with additional tables on the street, set up under a tent (convenient if it rains). All are decently spaced apart for Covid.

The chips and salsa are pretty average, but the best bang for your buck is really in the margaritas. There is a small size ($10) and large size ($18) in addition to the pitcher size you can get of their drinks. The large size is the way to go - plus their drinks tend to go on the stronger side which is great. I always go for the classic margarita but we also tried the mojito, which was good.

For food, I really enjoyed their chicken enchiladas - the chicken is tender, and the rice & beans and vegetables are tasty.
The chicken fajitas are pretty good as well - but have had better. Nevertheless, the chicken was tender and the mix of grilled vegetables served with the chicken was flavorful.

Although this is not the best Mexican food I’ve ever had, I would recommend stopping by if you live in the area - At least for a marg ;)

This place never disappoints. They have excellent dishes for convenient rates, there no long wait even when the place is busy.

Food is Amazing... and the Staff is even better. you must try the Tomahawk Steak when you visit ! yummmm

The Red Grill bravely opened in mid July 2020 with both traditional Mexican fare (fajitas, tacos, enchiladas, nachos, etc), but also with a specialization on a great offering of grilled, seafood, and fish dishes. The chips are authentic, the guacamole and salsas are fresh, and the service is friendly, responsive, and enthusiastic. For now, there are 18 outdoor tables stretched around 2nd Avenue and E 88th. They are filling up with waiting lines already - Olé! Reserve!
