A local favorite dive bar. The crowd is mostly younger hipsters. They offer a jukebox for music, but it is usually playing good stuff from the White Stripes to Atmosphere. The smoke level is high and they don't have a patio, but they do have big booths and large tables in the back to accommodate large groups. The Red Dragon is mostly famous for their tropical drinks that are $5-7, but you will only need one or two before crawling home. Although they don't really have much in the way of a happy hour, most bottled domestics are less than $3. Word of warning! Don't eat here; this place is strictly for drinking.

I love this place!!! They have the best chicken wings and wonderous punches! Kind of reminds me of the old Nankin from downtown mpls. The only thing that i dont like is its hard to read the bill, its all scribbled up and they wont seperate it and that is hard when you go with a large group otherwise love it!

Somehow ghetto is refreshing ?!?!? Really, if I wanted ghetto, I could go to Champion's, Sunny's, or any umber of places downtown. What's happening to Uptown? Rudolph's, Dragon, Country Bar, all are going ghetto. Obnoxious hip-hop on the jukeboxes, threatening behavior from the gangbanger patrons. On the other side, it's all going Douche. Cowboy Slim's, Stella's, Drink, even Chino's. WTF?

I wouldnt even give this a 1, I REALLY dislike this place. EXTREMELY rude servers. EXPENSIVE LOUSY drinks. DISGUSTING FOOD. Seriously took 50 minutes for it to arrive... cold and uncooked and looked like it had been sitting out just as long. I got sick and was ralphing the rest of the night. And by far the least hygienic restaurant/bar making the Skuzz Bar and Grill look like an upscale place. the bouncers are A-holes, the crowd looks like they will straight up mug you, and is it really necessary to urinate anywhere but IN the actual toilet? I should have never strayed from Liquor Lyles...

Watch out for the north-side gangbangers looking to start violence, that is to say, half the males there.
