Red House American Buffalo Wings Seafoods & Grill

An overall 3.75 star review. Not a horrible experience but not mind blowing either. Located in Temple Hills in a "busy" neighborhood, you can't miss the red brick structure that is Red House American Buffalo Wings Seafoods & Grill. There are no dine in options here. Food is prepared as it's ordered. They have a hot bar with some offerings and other things are listed on the menu. Rotating specials on various days and overall, my portion vs price paid was generous.The guy working was doing it all solo since his co-worker left and didn't tell him. I was in no hurry and he was quite efficient in handling walk in customers and their drive thru window. Of note, if you don't ask for cutlery or condiments, it's understood that you didn't want them. He was pleasant and didn't do much talking because he was working.They have canned soft drinks, from a dispenser lemonade, sweet tea and are happy to make it a half and half. I got sweet tea and it had a weird taste. This made me think that it's from a mix and not brewed. I didn't event drink it all because the taste was off-putting.I went with the turkey wings, collard greens and sweet potatoes. Thank goodness the sweet potatoes weren't overly sweetened. The turkey wings weren't as tender as mine and needed some attention to detail to remove the small remnants of feathers. The greens had to much stalk and were not from a can. Seasoning on the food was to my liking, but not overdone.My friend had a taste for fish and went with the 2 piece catfish combo. The fish was fried to order and was piping hot when she sat down to eat. Their sides were macaroni and cheese and collard greens. They enjoyed their food but the mac and cheese had a "made with liquid cheese" vibe to it and thats what made me not select it.Parking is on the side of the building or you can park in the rear and walk to the front. The door faces the street and the back of the building is towards the shopping area. If in the area, I may visit and try other things they have. Capable of contactless pay, cash and credit cards.

Food is usually made to order. Got the French Toast platter, 2 eggs, 4 slices of French toast, 3 bacon strips and grits. Bacon was a little under done making them chewy. Grits were really under cooked, when chewing on them the got chalky. Last thing, don't know what brand of strip they use but it's so watery. $12 not bad, not great either.

I love this place. I've been coming here for years. My favorite items are the salmon cakes and grits for breakfast. I love the catfish period. They have changed cooks a few times, I miss the ones that used to be here but the food is still good. It's a small building across from giant

I have mixed feelings about this place. So Im going to just start my review based upon my last visit there.Well first let me explain the establishment. It is very small with no seating/area per say. There are two chairs and a table counter that someone could possibly sit at, but most times folks are sitting there while they wait on their orders.They also have a drive -thru, which I have not used personally but have seen others in line.So its not extravagant...its purpose is to serve good food, you just need to find a place to eat it!..llsOk so yesterday I ordered Tilapia, yes I heard its man made fish etc., but its meaty and I don't like bone-fish.So the fish came with two sides, it was a hard decision because I am truly a visual person when it comes to selecting and eating my food. The string beans looked as if they were pulled out of the green giant can, no seasoning just pure bland looking. The corn looked over cooked or dry...either way I didn't want to find out first hand.So I decided on the collard greens and mixed veggies. After she prepared my container and handed it to me..I noticed that she did not give me mixed veggies, but zucchini instead, at the point I was just ready to go...back to work. Maybe its me, or just what I am used to but most places that sale fish include bread correct? So each time I go there and order fish..I have to tell the lady I want bread...like huh?? But ok back to the meal.The fish was dynamite,fried just right with the added Obay I requested on top. The collards were ok,no sparks. Now the zucchini...woohoo let me tell you was some kinda good!!! Come to find out it was teriyaki zucchini with carrots and onions. YUMMY!!Summary:Don't go there if your feet are hurting and you want to sit and eat...not going to happenIf you ORDER anything that you know should come with bread, just assume they/ she doesn't and be sure to ask for itOther than that..**I gave them 3 stars because this is not first time that they had my sides wrong...smhBon Appetite!!

This is the second time I ordered food here through Door Dash. Last time I got the salmon cakes. Very good. I would get them again. This time I ordered the fried oysters. Loved them with sides of black eyed peas and cabbage. The portions were good as well. I'll be coming back because there are several items on their menu I would like to try.Bob B.

This was my first time ordering here. First off let me start off by saying the seasoning on the food was very good however my fish was a little soggy and I'm not sure if it's because it was hot and enclosed or if the fish is just made a little soggy. The macaroni was a little basic for me but still good. The yams were sweet also a little basic but still good. Plentiful food!

I've been here to the Red House for breakfast, lunch and dinner... Their steak and veggie omelettes are great, and on most days they get the grits right. The bourbon chicken stir fry is awesome and one of my favorite items. I also get their smothered chicken gizzards with rice and black eyed peas... delish! Not everyone can make them, but Red House is my go to spot. The place could use a makeover and some cleaning up... And the workers could be more pleasant. The owner is very friendly and perky, and needs to get his staff up to speed in the customer service department.

This place provides great quality food at great prices. They also give you great portions for the reasonable prices. This is also my go to if I want to eat out. Their menu is massive but you get a great variety of everything and breakfast is served all day!

The main entrees are excellent. i really like the cooked kale. The other sides are only ok.Excellent customer service, all of the employees always have a smile.Portion sizes are very generous.

Visited the establishment today and order honey garlic wings, and garlic Parmesan wings. I was super excited to get my food and when I got home boy was I disappointed. The honey garlic wings were literally wings with just honey on the chicken... BLAHThe garlic Parmesan wings just had Parmesan sprinkled on it. The fries were beneath lackluster and had no seasoning on them and tasted like cardboard.The lady working the counter was very rude and condensing, she had no manners at all. When I went to ask questions she walked away from me.I normally patronize this place for breakfast but they definitely lost a customer in me .
