My family went to Red on a very sparse Sunday night about 6:45 pm. Initially there was no host at the entrance and after about a minute, we were greeted by a host/manager who looked no older than most of the waitstaff at some of the other Kemah restaurants. When we said we were here for Hibachi dining, he stated that he would not be doing another seating until 7:00 pm. Somewhat confused by this response, I asked if that was when the cooking began or when we could be seated. He replied rather rudely that all of the Hibachi tables were taken and that was the earliest he could have one available - making no offer to seat us at any one of the 30 open regular tables in the restaurant and then move us. I had already read the other reviews on this site, but wanted to give Red the benefit of the doubt since the service at the Flying Dutchman (whose space this upstart restaurant has usurped) was so great for so many years. Faced with this lousy introduction, my wife and I made the decision to leave the Boardwalk and eat elsewhere that evening. Seems like the reviews here are correct.
Cons: Very poor service and no customer focus
