Redd’s owners Doug Palsi, Dan Palsi and Frank Pinto have been friends since grammar school and, combined, have more than 75 years of experience in the hospitality industry. The Palsi Family has successfully operated Redd’s Restaurant & Bar in the Meadowlands (near Met Life Stadium) since 2002 and selected Newark as their second location (which opened in 2016) due to the growing number of residents and employees in the neighborhood, and as a result of customers who encouraged them to follow the New Jersey Devils to Newark.
Doug, Dan and Frank have experienced success by offering their customers great food, beer and customer service over the past few years which have prompted their Newark location to become a favorite spot for the neighborhood, local corporations and NJ Devils & Seton Hall Basketball fans. They have been in search of another location to expand on the popularity of Redd’s in the Meadowlands and Newark. Doug, Dan and Frank clearly view New Brunswick; which is named after a German town called Braunschweig as a community that would appreciate the culture and atmosphere their German Biergarten would provide. The three life-long friends felt their Biergarten would complement not only the community of New Brunswick but would cater to Rutgers University’s fan base and student population along with many of the well-recognized companies & healthcare organizations in the area.
Simply put Redd’s knows how to combine a uniquely innovative communal dining and bar experience with some of the greatest sporting events, concerts and family entertainment. That’s why Governor Chris Christie declined Mayor Mike Bloomberg’s invitation to join him in New York’s Times Square to announce Super Bowl XLVIII would be played at Met Life Stadium. Instead, The Governor chose to announce that the Super Bowl would be played in New Jersey at Redd’s Restaurant & Bar in the heart of the Meadowlands indicating, “Redd’s is the Times Square of New Jersey”!
Doug Palsi has successfully built Redd’s Restaurant & Bar into a well-recognized quality brand since the establishment’s inception in 1990. Doug is the epitome of customer service and is responsible for the front-of-the-house and customer satisfaction along with developing and managing thousands of innovative tailgates, private parties and corporate events throughout the years. Doug’s love of his customers and corporate clients have driven him to open an establishment they can now enjoy when they come to see the Devil’s and Seton Hall play at the Prudential Center by providing them with another quality venue to enjoy before and after sporting events and concerts.
