Jim Cramer: Work Hard Play Hard! My night at the Red Cadillac

NJ Bar Hop Kate Pens Her Red Cadillac Ride

NJ BAR HOP

 "We started off with an appetizer called Cheese and Chorizo Dip Sticks. This is a deconstructed dish consisting of chorizo on skewers, small flour tortillas, and gooey queso fundido. I had never had anything like this before and was full before my meal even arrived. I ordered a chicken burrito ($17) and my sister got the beef enchiladas ($15). The portions were plentiful and rice and beans were served family style on the side. We will definitely be back to sample more of the menu offerings. The ambiance is great and I can’t wait to go back to try one of the infused tequilas."

Big Dreams for a Small Business — Owning a Bar (Joe Montes)

Big Dreams for a Small Business — Owning a Bar

By Cynthia Bunting, BusinessNewsDaily ContributorNovember 5, 2010






 "[The most important thing to know before opening a bar is] how to actually bar tend. You have to know the ins and outs of everything behind the stick (bar), and that doesn't just include drink and cocktail preparation. The do's and don'ts of cash-handling procedures are very important. It could save you, or cost you your business in no time.

"The 3,000-square-foot Red Cadillac specializes in house-infused tequilas. About 20 brands of un-infused tequilas, including several añejo varieties, are kept behind the bar. But “I go through 10 gallons of infused tequila a week,” Mr. Montes said."

Someone alert Guy Fieri. The Red Cadillac may not be a drive-in restaurant, but patrons will feel like they’ve never left their cars while dining at this Mexican eatery. The Union hotspot, known for its tacos and tequilas, was opened in September 2010 by veteran husband-and-wife restaurateurs Joe and Jamey Montes. Less than 3 miles down Morris Avenue from AVE Union, the restaurant is hard to miss with its 1968 chili-red convertible Cadillac parked out front – and on its sign. Automotive touches aren’t limited to its entrance. The cozy eatery is reminiscent of your neighborhood mechanic’s shop with hubcaps and red bulbs strategically placed throughout, a wreath made of green glass beer bottles hung above the bar and servers dressed in retro gas station attendants’ shirts. The Montes’ dub the fare, which is homemade, “classic Mexican street.” Favorite dishes include the Sizzling Cadillac Fajitas served with rice, Cadillac beans, tortillas, guacamole, sour cream and pico de gallo and the enchiladas, soft corn tortillas with your choice of chicken or beef, Monterey Jack, cheddar and Chihuahua cheeses. But it’s not just the food that creates its loyal clientele. The Montes family has been infusing tequila with fresh fruit for three generations. Twelve unique flavors, ranging from PB & Jelly to Red Hots, can be used in making margaritas, but Joe recommends you drink them straight up.
