worst thing i could think of Oct 7th, 2005
If you cooked a rat on the BBQ it would have been better than the food you get at the redcaboose.Infacked the cheff is a crackhead.But if you are looking for the food to be droped on the floor,and you dont care about tast then the redcaboose is where you need to eat.the recipe for the spag. tast like it came from spagetty-os and the meatballs hade more mold than pinacelin it self.

Not what you would expect Jul 7th, 2001
To say that I was disappointed with the Red Caboose would be the understatement of the year. After moving to the area recently, we passed the restaurant daily and were interested in the quaint looking establishment.
On a Friday evening, we decided to venture out and try our luck. Entering the restaurant, we were immediately surprised. What appeared to be more of a fairly nice restaurant from the outside was more of a rowdy pub on the inside. There were approximately 50 patrons, of which only about 5 were having dinner. The rest were noisily watching a World Wrestling Federation match on the loud TVs that surrounded the dining area, which was, by the way, not separated from the bar area at all.
We decided to stay, however, assuming that the food would be tasty, just as their advertising implies. They "specialize" in Italian fare, so we decided to try some pasta dishes. I chose the mushroom pasta, and my better half chose a spicy shrimp dish. When the salads arrived, it appeared that they had been stolen from the high school cafeteria. Limp iceburg lettuce and sad-looking tomatoes were drowned in a bottled italian dressing. The bread, made by a local italian bakery, was the highlight of the meal. When the entrees arrived, I was surprised, to say the least. My mushroom pasta, at $10/plate, was slightly more appealing than the salad, but was at room temperature and doused in a bottle of olive oil. My other's shrimp pasta was filled with salad shrimp in a bottled-tasting sauce spiked with some red wine and red pepper flakes.
We hurriedly choked down what we could, paid our bill, and left. I suggest going to the Red Caboose if you're looking for a night of drinking with the locals. If, however, good food in a decent atmosphere is what you're looking for, you would be better off to scout out another restaurant.
