Frommer's Review

Specializing in dim sum dishes with a contemporary, pan-Asian flair, this sexy Gaslamp Quarter restaurant is decorated in hues of deep red and features stone and tile accents, a cool pebbled floor, some nice deep booths, and two private dining areas. At Red Pearl, you may see a kung fu flick on one of the flat screens over the bar or hear some chill tunes to go along with your strawberry-cinnamon short ribs, duck lettuce wraps, or wok-fired Kobe beef with papaya and mint; for dessert, don't miss the airy andagi, the Japanese version of a donut hole. Red Pearl also has an in-kitchen chef's table seating 4 to 12 people; bottles of wine are half-off on Sunday; and if you dine Tuesday through Sunday, bring your bill back on Monday and eat for half-off. Like any Chinese restaurant worth its noodles, Red Pearl also has takeout.
