Red Tower III

Always a good meal… The nice thing is this establishment is open late. Plus nice thing is you can have a beer with your meal

Do you hate your body? Despise your arteries? Miss blood in your stool?
Well Holy unhealthy goodness, your in luck. You have found Red Tower iii.
Burgers are served on rolls, kinda like a deli sandwich. The meat is huge, flat, and greasy. Some people are really into very flat burger meat patties. Well this is as flat as they get. The fries are unremarkable, but good.
The décor is ancient, run down and I love it. The guys running the show behind the counter, and making the food are boss. They have the attitude of grumpy pizza guys with sassy attitudes. Perfect for this kind of establishment.
If your in the mood for fast food anyway, give this place a try, it’s pretty unique.
I played it safe, and had the «fat boy combo» for my first time. It was what I basically expected with a few surprises. One of which being some coleslaw on the side. Nice touch.

Average food on the whole.
Hot dogs and buffalo wings are a must!!! They have very good dry buffalo wings that i recommend to anyone. Or try the spicy fries.
Also its a plus that they serve booze!

Double hot dog combo was a total let down. Fries were just ok, but the hot dogs left MUCH to be desired. The portion was fine, but there was a funny flavor in those hot dogs. I expected better for $ 10.65. The service was pretty lousy, and the place had a seedy vibe. Only go if you’re drunk. Stay away if you’re looking for regular food.

This place is awesome!!! The location is great since it’s right on rt 22 E. If you miss the entrance then you are in serious trouble. When I arrived I did not think the place was open. The open light that should have been lit was not. However, they were open and the place was exceptionally clean. The parking lot could stand to be redone. The menu is great bc they offer more than enough options for everyone.
The best part about the place is the variety of drinks they have.
I opted for a 2 hotdogs combo chili and cheese dogs with spicy mustard which was 10.50 and comes with fries and a drink. I also order a strawberry Margarita which was 4.99 and my favorite cookies in the whole wide work «butter crunch» which was about $ 2. My total with tax was $ 18.35 which was more than enough food to love on.
The fries were crispy and hot, the chili was meaty and overall amazing, the root beer was the doorway to heaven, and the margarita was nice!
Overall, HELL yeah I’m going back. And if your in the area you should stop too. They are looking for help as well if anyone needs a job.

Was great when they served minors but very sub par food. The beer is very overpriced among everything else there. Friday nights use to be popping but that ended soon once the fuzz found out what was going on and they were probably heavily fined. Surprised they still have a liquor license. If you’re thrashed, everythign is closed, and need a place to eat go here otherwise I wouldn’t recommend it. Also the owenr always looks so angry. He must work 17 hours a day because I never see anyone else working the register.

Not great. Not terrible. Stopped here while working an overnight snow shift. Got a decent burger and fries. Really enjoyed their hot sauce. They seem to have a full bar, but I would feel a little weird getting loaded here. It would be like drinking in an old McDonald’s. A little more expensive than it needs to be, and definitely could use an interior remodel. But all in all, I’d come again.

Home of the Fatboy, ask for extra pickles and onions. Also u should try the grilled chicken with peppers onions and swiss.

A better than average joint. Dogs with decent snap, meaty chili with some cinnamon notes, fries crunchy and hot fried to order, cheap beer. Most places like this in NJ won’t have booze, but somehow they have a few bottles of hard liquor and some taps. $ 15 pitchers of Yuengling ain’t bad as the normal day to day price.
It is what it is: a decent «joint» type place, on the cheaper side, no more.

Horrible customer service. The owner or manager barely looks at you and never says thank you. Food is decent.

I was introduced to this restaurant because we had a Central Jersey geocaching event here. For that purpose, it was adequate because the dining area is sufficiently spacious. However, I found the food to be merely mediocre and I didn’t get much for the money.

We went here by chance, just looking for a place to eat at 8 one night. They have a nice big selection of different foods, made to order and served hot. You can have a bunch of people all wanting something different and still all be able to eat here.
On the downside, the 4 of us were in the restaurant with only one other couple, and the food took quite a while to come out. I got the fried chicken, which was fried perfectly and nice and crunchy, but was quite bland. I don’t think they season either the chicken or the batter. The cole slaw has great crunch, but again no real seasonings. The others in my group had burgers, which they thought were tasty, although the buns fell apart and seemed a little stale. The the kids burger (in the kids meal) is very small, so if your kid is over about 6 I’d just get him/​her a regular burger.

I go here about once every two years. The food is fair and there’s always plenty of seating as the place is never crowded. The dog buns are wimpy. There are better options around. NOTE: They have a liquor license.

I’m used to Texas wieners from north jersey (Falls View Grill, Hot Grill, etc.,) so these are just ok… However, make no mistake, they were delicious. The dogs had a great snap, buns were fresh, and they sell beer here with a lot flat screen TVs for football… Only thing is I’m used to more of a chili sauce with that spicy cumin/​cinnamon flavor (maybe I was spoiled growing up). Chili around most of this area seams to be more meaty & less saucy :(

Nice that they have near the same variety of a small roadside diner. The hotdogs are not great, and the chili for the dogs was below average. The place is very grungy and the service is glacial slow, but they get a star for serving beer.

I eat here about once a month. I usually get breakfast (for dinner) and it is always to my liking. The Texas Wieners are OK. I grew up with the North Jersey variety (Libby’s Lunch, The Hot Grill, etc.) so, I can’t really give a fair comparison.
Most Friday and Saturday nights Red Tower III has live bands which is nice. I love to come on a band night and grab a beer while waiting for my food to be done.
The rest of the menu is good. Burgers, salads, chicken (the wings are devine!). I would recommend the meatloaf and roast beef specials. They are pretty good for a fast foot joint.

I stopped for lunch after reading several reviews. I was very disappointed. Their texas hot dog was not good at all. The fat boy burger was over cooked and not fat at all. The only up side was the burger bun was toasted and fresh.
I will not return.

Oh my. Went here on my Phase 2 of hotdog tour yesterday. Mind you they advertise their so called Texas Wieners. Not good at all! Place looks like it hasn’t been renovated in the past 30yrs. The signs are still the old school pictures of food. They don’t even look appetizing. Needless to say I had a dog «all the way». I think he misunderstood me with the chili. Instead it was dog food on top of a hotdog… yuck! It tasted like sh*t. Worst to date. The mini burger tasted right out of the freezer… man oh man what a debacle. Never, ever going back. Not even to try their breakfast.

²⁴⁄₇ diner that was open on Christmas Day. After spending the morning serving meals to folks, we went back to NJ to find that EVERYTHING was closed. We were prepared to just find something in the cabinets at home, but my sister insisted that we find something open so that she could get some french fries.
So we drove up and down Route 22 and found this place open. It’s very clean and they have a huge menu. You can get typical diner food including breakfast at any time of the day. I noticed that they even have veggie burgers!
My sister settled on a grilled cheese sandwich and some french fries. Both were well executed. They put the perfect amount of butter on the bread of the grilled cheese and the steak-​cut fries were absolutely delicious.
All this for $ 5.30 (tax included). Will surely go back again when nothing else is open…

Red Tower III is a great diner! It’s open 27/​7, serves breakfast all the time and has yeungling on tap. Where else can you have beer and pancakes?!
The inside area is large, with plenty of booths and tables. You order your food at the counter, pay, then find a table and eat. So you can make your meal as short or quick as you’d like. I’ve never had a problem with hanging out there.
On Friday nights they have an open-​mic night with Tal Patton! If you play an instrument you’re welcome to join. It’s really not as bad as it sounds though. After the first hour or two (starting at 10p), Tal ends up just playing covers for most of the night (he does a great Johnny Cash). The employees don’t mind if you hang out there for several hours as long as you buy at least one thing. We usually just order beer and listen to the band.
Aside from the fun atmosphere, the food is diner average. Their blueberry pancakes are really really good! Their burgers are alright. The fries are yummy! They also serve ice cream but I haven’t had it there.
In general, I’d say this is a great after-​bar place, especially on Friday nights. or if you want to leave a bar but just go someplace for food and a beer.
