The bill arrives and waiter gave only some people their own order total which messed up the tax so when two people left we had to pay for their tax - either do it for all individual or not we had about 4 different bills circulating and the waiter was rude. The food was good and happy we had a private area but we could have gotten way better service

The food at Red Farm is very tasty, but the portion sizes are small relative to the price of the menu items. Not terrible for sharing between two diners, but would not recommend sharing between more than that unless you're prepared to order multiples.
