Red Restaurant
Long Island, New York
Portfolio / Commercial / Hospitality
The owners of Red Restaurant wanted to bring a “Manhattan chic” environment to Long Island. We designed two spaces nestled behind a bold storefront: the dining room with commercial kitchen and the bar area. The elegant and comfortable dining room seats 90. The bar features custom red lacquered cabinetry, wine racks, and a custom zinc bar. We incorporated two ADA-compliant restrooms, as well as new mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems. The red painted storefront enlivens the streetscape and has become the restaurant’s signature.
