C F Great service breakfast and dinner, had to spend some money to for parking and food was my choice.

Bates Jaffe My elderly father and I came here for breakfast and first of all it was delicious! He’s a former chef and VERY particular and went crazy for their biscuits and gravy. The staff is amazing. Stephanie and Micah took amazing care of us, they were both so kind and generous with their time and my dad’s MANY requests. Chatting with them (and getting many local recommendations) while we had breakfast at the bar was a true pleasure- just genuinely lovely people! If I lived locally this would absolutely be a regular spot for me. (Micah, you rock!) Thank you all so much for everything!

Hannah Downing Friendly staff and good food. There’s plenty of seating inside, and a couple tables out front. The food is pretty basic, but I have no complaints. Generous portion sizes are a bonus! Glad we have a Fremont location :)

Denise Fernandez From the moment we walked into Red O, everything about this restaurant was exceptional. The atmosphere was fantastic and the space itself is absolutely beautiful—warm, inviting, and thoughtfully designed down to the smallest detail. The management and staff were truly incredible: welcoming, attentive, and genuinely passionate about providing a great experience. The food was pure perfection. The filet mignon was cooked flawlessly—tender, flavorful, and beautifully presented—and the salmon risotto was rich, creamy, and perfectly balanced. This was an outstanding dining experience from start to finish, and I can’t wait to return!! Highly recommended.

Stacey Mattish This restaurant just opened on July 4, and if my experience tonight is any example of the future, this place is a wonderful addition to Hollister! They have redone the inside with an aqua blue and fish - truly delightful. Thw food was absolutely delicious and the portions, generous. The prices are refreshing in this time of overpriced everything. I hope that they are here to stay for many generations!
