Red Manila is a two-floor venue on the Forbes Town strip in BGC that opened in March 2026. Downstairs is a dining room serving sushi, oysters and Asian dishes, with dim sum by Taiwanese chef Rachel Kao. Upstairs is the reason to go: a performance room with a different act every night, from jazz and soul to blues and comedy, with a dedicated sound engineer running the audio. It is the only venue on the Forbes Town strip with live entertainment every day, Monday included.
