Places that I enjoy in the city:
Original Joes - higher end on the price scale, but really good food. It's set in a former automobile shop, and the atmosphere is quite unique.
Moxies - you probably get the same thing in Calgary, but still a great place to eat. Again, fairly pricey, but the portions justify the cost.
The Rock - a rock and roll themed pizzeria. Try the day-trippers, they are mini, dippable calzones.
China Ben's - so far, the best Chinese Food I have found in Red Deer. The atmosphere leaves a lot to be desired, but the food is top notch. You get 10% off any pick-up order over $20.
Menchies - not sure if this is in Calgary, but it's a self-serve frozen yogurt stand. Pick your own flavor and toppings/sauces, and pay based on weight. Tastes like soft-serve ice cream, if the thought of something similar to Yogen Fruz turns you off.
Phils - several of them in Calgary as well, so you may have eaten there. Serves breakfast all day, and does it much better than places like Dennys and Smittys. Not outstanding by any means, but very reliable and you get what you pay for.
Las Palmeras - never eaten there myself, but I only ever hear good things. Mexican cuisine.
All that I can think of off the top of my head, but I'll post more if they come to me.
