The food and the service at The Red Emperor is fabulous. They asked us if we had a Show to get to and as we did our drinks & meals were on the table in a flash. Beautiful meals and beautiful wine. Thankyou.

The manager pressured and demanded all customers to give tips, he gets upset if you do not meet his demand or give less than what he asked for.

The food here is of a high standard. This was a pre-theatre meal so we have only tried a very limited range of dishes and on this and previous visits all have been very good!
