I wanted higher quality food from DoorDash and I saw this place had a ton of American style food options. Everything came in wonderful to go food boxes and wrapped in foil! We were so happy to see the extra effort put into our to go order! It made such a difference! : ]

My girlfriend tries to get a pretzel 🥨 and cheese 🧀 sauce when a restaurant has it and it did not disappoint! The pretzel was almost the size of our kitten in about the size of a small pizza box and the cheese queso was out of this world!

I ended up going with the Smoked Chipotle Turkey Club sandwich on sourdough! The flavor of all the Ingredients together was perfection. I was like hmm roasted peppers, smoked meat, and chipotle on fresh bread sounds like love at first bite! The bread was just right soft and crunchy on outside and turkey was not too juicy and not dry. It was probably the best turkey sandwich I have ever eaten! I had to get the sweet potato fries which were delicious! We also shared the cornbread which was quite good.

I may have to try the jumbo tater tots and wings or a nice salad and chili next! Everything on the menu looks great!

Got the teriyaki chicken rice and broccoli with the jumbo tater tots ordered with DoorDash sent to my work. It was so, so, so good! The food was hit and fresh as if I ordered it and was seating at the restaurant. Highly recommend this place!!!!

We had the pleasure of dining here on Sunday night to celebrate my daughter’s birthday.
Our server, Shawn was great!
He was professional, courteous and handled our food, allergies efficiently and correctly!
We had a great experience, tasty food with large portions and a great time and we look forward to coming back!!! Great job rht!

This place was amazing! The service is quickly and they are very friendly. Despite it being fairly busy when we went (dinner time) our server took the time to help us pick our food. Walked us through her favorite items and let us know what was popular!

The food was perfect! My sandwich was great, juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. It was also pretty spicy, tasted like a buffalo or hot sauce on the outside of the chicken. The server also was happy to switch out the blue cheese dressing for ranch dressing for me. The Southern Fried Chicken was also great and much better than my expectations! It had a crispy skin and very juicy meat, the sauce was so flavorful! I thought it tasted similar to a thanksgiving meal. The gravy was thick without being clumpy and had a great flavor. The mashed potatoes were thick and creamy and had no chunks or skin in it!

The jumbo tater tots were very good! SO CRISPY!! I loved the inside it was very creamy and tasted great with ranch as a dipping sauce, though it comes with ketchup and that also pairs well. We also got the fry rub wings (75¢ per wing!) and they were so good. Don't judge by the picture they were so juicy inside! I was worried when they arrived because the outside looked so crispy and dark but it was just due to the spices on the skin. The meat tasted great and was moist while the skin was crispy and very tasty. I highly recommend going when they have the 75¢ wing deal!

Overall we loved the food and the service. I would definitely go again!

Had a pleasant dining experience with my brother that I came to visit off of his recommendation for this restaurant. Our waiter, Sean, was very talkative and charismatic which was refreshing. The food was great and I would definitely come back if I am in the area again!

This place was amazing. The decor is great, service attentive without being overbearing, atmosphere is welcoming (12pm on Sunday), the food turnaround was fast, meals were beyond fantastic and the drink menu was full of fresh options.

We got the Tavern Chicken and Honey Mustard Crispy Chicken Salad w/Asparagus on the side and topped off with Tavern Cheesecake. Drink: Berry Lemonade White Sangria.

Yum yum yum, we will be back!

This place is one of my favorites! The food is so filling and delicious, all the staff is extremely nice and the atmosphere of the place is well-decorated and cool to look at inside.

Amazing Amaziinngg and Aammmmaaaazzziiinnngg! Do try the Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich and also the Veggie Burger there!!!!!!! I just can't stop eating those menu items!! Service is slightly slower though...

The food was amazing! My husband got the steak tips med. rare and they were perfect every piece, The veggies were seasoned perfectly. I had the harvest bowl with added grilled salmon and omg was it to die for, The portions were filling.
Can’t wait to go back!

This place was absolutely wonderful!!! The minute we were sat down, he asked if either of us had any allergies so he knew right from the start. I was told basically everything on the menu can be made gluten free (including the tenders!!!). I loved everything I ate and I so appreciated the service we received!

I’ve been to Red heat before but ever since the Menu changed I am obsessed, the bowls and the chili are amazing, the signature corn bread is a must.. service has improved is so much faster and the food always on point. Management has done a great job I recommend 100%

The food at Red Heat Tavern is delicious and the staff are friendly. All the food on the menu can be made gluten free including desserts. The cheesecake is delectable!

This is a great place to eat if you like charcoal smoked flavored meat. The Broiler Oven by Wood Stone creates a variable high heat and smoke control that helps to produce a totally different and enhanced flavor profile than than that of a traditional convection oven. The barbecue ribs or pulled pork have an outdoor smoky sweet flavor that I love. The big option of local draft beer from Samuel Adam larger to cider beer would go well with the barbecue meats!

Ben was awesome!! Best service ever. Best burger I’ve had in a while! Everyone is always so nice and food is always on point love this place

We had a great meal here. Cozy restaurant with surprisingly good food. The kids enjoyed the kids menu and loved the skillet cookie. Our server Joshua was excellent…helpful and charming.

It was a great experience in all. It was also my first time at the Red Heat Tavern and I have to say I loved it. I went around 6:30pm when it was very busy, but I didn't have to wait to be seated. The place is very welcoming, fun, busy atmosphere and food was great. I definitely would recommend this place to everyone. Food is full of flavors which I love. Service was great as well. Can't complain. I had the Mexican Stuffed Peppers with Steak. Mmmm....🤤🤤😍

This place is so incredibly good! My wife and I came for apps and drinks. We got sweet tai chili wings, pork belly tacos and Mai Tais. Everything was excellent! Food, drinks, price and atmosphere met above and beyond our expectations! RHT Westborough is a MUST TRY!

went yesterday for the first time. the food and staff were excellent. we went for our wedding anniversary . she got haddock i got bacon cheese burger. (classic with bacon added not the bbq one) i also messed with it before the picture so it isnt exactly like that but really good. took about 10-15 mins which is normal/ fast. the burger was cooked medium well and they did a good job on that. kitchen very nice and clean. happy staff. warm and cozy. tons of parking. happy i went. the bill was like 54$ and we tipped 20$ so like 70 bucks totally fair for the quality and everything. almost finished my plate but it was too much food . gave the rest to the cats at home. they loved it too.

Delicious fried chicken. Awesome seasoned fries. Great service. Entire restaurant was clean, and tables well spaced.
I recommend the Farmhouse burger, medium rare.
