Buns and patty on Cheeseburger were really tough and hard to bite through, so it wasn't very enjoyable. French Fried Potatoes are delivered in a coated paper bag, which caused them to be soggy due to the steam trapped inside. They were good after a few minutes in the air fryer. The Hot Dog was good and the Spaghetti Red had a good noodle/chili mix.

Good chili, but LOTS of grease. True to the Midwest without beans! Frito pie does not come with any traditional toppings.

A dear friend of mine Michelle Evans has told me over and over that Fred's & Reds is the best food ever! And tonight I was able to believe her! Well, I believed her, but after eating their food, I have proof! It is SO good! I had the double chili Chili Cheeseburger and French Fried Potatoes . I can't wait to try all the other delicious menu items!!
