We went down a side street to stop in a few shops. My husband wandered and saw an R36 sign for food and drinks. We walked toward the run down mariner buildings, through a dirt parking lot, went around the potholes and puddles, and finally turned the corner to our surprise of Red 36. There is free parking in front of the restaurant if we had only known.
Plenty of seating inside, full bar, doors open to the outside, bar outside along with tables and umbrellas, a large patio couch to seat at least a dozen. Great attentive wait staff. No one just standing around; serving, sweeping, wiping down.
Comfortable, resort casual atmosphere and attire. Wait staff have coordinating shirts but all wear jeans.
The menu is clearly a resort class selection. Lobster corn fritters were large, hot, and came with three dipping sauces. The three chicken sliders were crisp fried tenders with coleslaw on soft slider rolls.
Look at the prices before you decide to stay. $8-10 for a glass of wine, appetizers $12-15.
Beautiful setting, time to sit and enjoy, good quality drinks and food. Make this a destination.

Went for a dinner with friends. The food was really good serving size a little on the small size. The service was excellent and the food really good.

Great location once you find it! Lots of people asking each other how to get there so somewhat off the beaten path but really a short walk from downtown Mystic. (6 or 7 minutes.) Wonderful chowder and fried clam app size portion so you can try them without regretting it. Beautiful decor and decking and views. It's the new place in Mystic to try.

We heard about this place on the internet while looking up another place we enjoyed that has since closed. It was great! We were seating quickly and our drink order taken right away. Our server, Beth, was aware that we were in no rush so she didn't keep coming back every few minutes which we really appreciated! The food was very good although we just had clam chowder and a raw bar selection. The weather was fantastic, the vibe was wonderful. All in all, a great experience and we'll be back!

Beautiful atmosphere, great for drinks and apps. Very pricey and their food is very average at that.
