This was a booking for a meal before a concert. We had a look at their excellent website that allowed us to choose our meals during our train trip do as to not waste time. We were seated promptly and ordered. Our meals arrived promptly and were delicious. My wife in particular an excellent cook os usually quite hard when judging restaurant meals was very pleased with both the taste but the price as well. We were both very happy.

It was a bit too cold out on the riverside for some of the group but I had requested seating there so no error on restaurant side. I just remembered it being warmer there in the past in winter. I'll book inside in winter in future.

Red Emperor is a wonderful restaurant, it's no wonder they have been open for as long as it has. Food is fresh and delicious. Old school impeccable service, something that has been lost in the running of many other restaurants but not at Red Emperor. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our banquet and look forward to visiting again soon.
