Red Square Tapas Lounge

Amid dark wood, red walls, and the glow of crimson-hued lamps, Scarlet Tapas Lounge’s master chef deftly assembles armies of small plates featuring handcrafted eats forged from fresh ingredients. Tandem diners can snuggle into a candlelit table and synchronize swallowing velocities over a trio of savory tapas, such as the house stuffed jalapeno poppers, brimming with mozzarella and sharp cheddar cheese aged two years to ensure enough maturity to not throw itself at neighbouring patrons during dinner. House-made sweet-potato perogies turn the traditional Slavic dumplings on their pillowy heads, and barbecued rib eye, kimchi, and sriracha aioli join flavourful forces when nestled inside the Korean-style barbecue steak wraps. Goblets of red or white wine keep talk boxes hydrated throughout relaxed meals.
