RED STAR TAVERN TO OPEN
AT THE SHOPPES AT EASTCHASE
MONTGOMERY (April 20, 2005) - Red Star Tavern, a contemporary version of the classic American tavern, is scheduled to open May 16, 2005 at The Shoppes at EastChase in Montgomery. Red Star Tavern features prime steaks and chops, fresh seafood and more in a clubby atmosphere, along with specialty martinis, beers and a well-rounded wine list with a unique selection available by the glass.
While Red Star's contemporary American menu certainly has plenty of choices, "Steaks, Chops & Seafood" is the motto at this establishment. All of Red Star's steaks are Midwestern, grain-fed, center-cut beef and aged a minimum of 21 days. Steaks and chops are served with your choice of two sides unless otherwise noted. Choose from a hearty 20 oz. Cowboy Ribeye ($27.95), 14 oz. New York Strip ($26.95), 8 oz. Filet Mignon ($24.95) or 16 oz. "Bone-in" Filet (MKT), among other choices. For something different, try a Blue Cheese Crusted Filet ($26.95) or a Horseradish Parmesan Crusted Filet ($26.95). Feeling even more decadent? Add a little "surf" to your "turf" with a side of Cold Water Lobster Tail (MKT) or Crab-stuffed Shrimp ($10.95 for four). To make your decision even more difficult, three cuts of Prime Rib, Rotisserie Chicken, Ribs and a Double-cut Pork Chop are also available.
"Seafood" selections include indulgent Hazelnut-Crusted Trout, with spinach, tomato, corn, shrimp and mashed potatoes ($16.95) and Sesame-Crusted Tuna with spinach, mushrooms and ginger soy butter sauce ($19.95). "Red Star Specialties" feature choices such as earthy Wild Mushroom Penne with oven-dried tomatoes, peas and parmesan broth ($10.95) and Chicken Giardiniera, Sicilian style rigatoni tossed with marinated vegetables and chicken breast ($11.95). An impressive assortment of sandwiches, entree salads, "small plates" and kid-friendly selections are also available at both lunch and dinner.
An extensive drink list is headlined by a selection of specialty martinis like "The O," a fruity, tropical concoction and the "Ruby," a cool, tangy refreshment. Of course, there's the "Swank," for those who prefer their martinis "shaken, not stirred" and topped with an olive. Or, choose from a unique selection of bottled beer, drafts, microbrews and wines by the bottle or glass.
The 6500 square foot restaurant seats 80 at the bar and 180 in the dining room. An amazing outdoor cafe and bar seats 100. Clubby surroundings have an intimate feel, with design elements that include a glass-enclosed exhibition kitchen, curved leather booths, illuminated wine case, wood-paneled walls, custom lighting, eclectic artwork and plasma televisions.
Red Star Tavern is open daily for lunch, dinner and late-night dining from 11 a.m. until 2 a.m. Take-out is available. The restaurant is handicapped accessible. Reservations accepted. All major credit cards accepted. For more information, call 334.395.6665.
