    We walked in from the Marriott Hotel and were able to get a table quickly. We got the Scotch Eggs to start, and they rival as the best we have had. Cooked perfectly, and the dipping sauce was a delight. We split a burger and truffle fries after that, and the kitchen was awesome. They were able to do half with cheese and without for dietary needs to split on two different plates. The kids got mac and cheese and a burger. The service was great, and the atmosphere was pleasant. I would recommend it to anyone passing through town or local. If you found this review helpful, please give a 👍.

    Appetizers were great. The service was great to start and throughout the meal. My wife had a salad that was delicious and I had the 60/40 burger which was very good. We visited on Father's Day and free drinks for the fathers. Was a nice touch as was many donuts for the table. This would have been a five-star review but when it came time to get our check our server disappeared for quite a long time. Often that final closeout can be as crucial as everything else as it's the last thing we remember when we leave. Definitely will be back.

    Stopped on a Friday evening just before 7pm for dinner. We struggled to find stall in the parking Garage lot, and with an oversized vehicle it was a mess🤦‍♀️. Not too excited to pay for parking as well, Red Cow only validates the first hour. That doesn’t encourage setting around and drinking? They do try to place signs to help guide you inside. You come through the parking garage and enter in at the back of the restaurant and need to walk around to hostess desk. We were seated right away, with multiple options from the bar, high top tables, regular tables, booths, or even outdoors. Atmosphere is relaxed, dim lights, calm but the 80’s music is loud and hard to talk over. Some more recent music would have been nice. Menu with many options. They have some unique combinations that I’m interested to try my next visit. Our server had no name tag (none of them did) and never introduced herself by name, but she was friendly and very helpful. She answered all my questions, what were in the special sauce, red cow sauce, beer mustard and such. Took a while to get drinks. But they were busy. Staff were all in constant motion and working very hard. Food came quickly, exactly as ordered. My only complaint was the bottom bun was very soggy from the grease of the burger. Like wet to the point my fingers were wet with the grease and they went through the bun. I managed about 1/4 of the burger and was done eating at that point. The bun was just too gross. Server very attentive. Took our food to box it to take home. Mine just needed a new bun and then it will be edible again. Overall- 7/10 food. Atmosphere and music 2/10. Staff was 10/10. Parking 3/10. I would like to visit for brunch or lunch and give them another try.

    The atmosphere and food are amazing but the bartender Malik is even better. Made the best Bloody I have ever had and never let my drink get below half way empty before asking if I needed a refill. Worth every penny!

    One of the best burgers I've had in the area. Ordered medium rare Barcelona burger and it was so juicy and delicious. The truffle fries and Ahi Crisps were really good as well! Parking lot is a little tricky, but the restaurant does comp the first hour.

    It's rediculous how good the double barrel burger is, I crave it if I go very long without 😫 I've been to a couple locations and I love the trustworthiness of swinging by RC for a consistently great burger, cocktail and some 🔥wings. First time here for happy hour just as great an experience.

    The location is great across the street from St Marys. The burger was the best we have enjoyed in town and the cheese curds were excellent with the three berry sauce! Definitely will return!

    I was so looking forward to eating here and was disappointed. Four of us ordered burgers, and I am not a fan of mayo, so I ordered my Ultimate burger without the Red Cow sauce (mayo, pickles, and mustard). Our food came, but my burger had the Red Cow sauce on it, which i asked to have left off. It took a while for the waitress to return to the table so everyone else was half done eating. She was kind and ordered a new one without the sauce, but everyone was done and another drink before I got my burger. I wasn't upset, just annoyed, and kind of lost my appetite. Only saving grace was the truffle fries and margaritas. I wasn't expecting, but thinking I would get a discount on my meal for it taking 20+ minutes to get a new burger. They have parking in the Berkman's ramp, but you have to pay if you are there over an hour. I won't be going back there again, sadly.
