The New Yorker- I’m not used to this tapas-style eating, but it’s great to be able to eat a variety for dinner. The charcuterie is excellent, similar to an Italian antipasto appetizer. Great presentation on all the dishes. Especially enjoyed the eggplant roulade.

The Raleigh-ite- We ate at Red Room on Monday when all the small plate tapas are 1/2 price, so this was GREAT risk/reward!! Red Room has a great contemporary atmosphere, with comfortable tables, chairs and a great vibe.  I ordered the raspberry green tea sangria and it was excellent; a great, sweet, twist on sangria! The Tuna Tartar has a great mustard-y sauce mixed in with the tuna. The Steak Churrasco is a little chewy but has great flavor.  The fried banana dessert is insane, I highly suggest you order it. The fried banana is served with caramel and icecream.
