Red Lobster

Haven’t been to Red Lobster in years but tonight I was feeling some of those biscuits! They were just as good as I remembered them to be. Ended up sitting at the bar and Bee was our waitress. Service was incredible and she had us laughing the entire time. Pro Tip: dip the biscuits in the sweet Thai chili sauce!

My son and I went for the 2nd time 2 days ago. Amanda gave us phenomenal service! We ordered the Two for Tuesday Mariner's Feast Food was yummy and good portions with leftovers after having biscuits, the lobster artichoke dip w/ nachos, and our salads. So 2 out of 2 visits went above our expectations!

Worst restaurant experience ever! Just left there. The website shows them as busy but it was anything but busy. At first we were greeted by a manager as the hostess was seating someone. We were seated pretty quickly with Jamie, but without menus. We ordered our drinks, 2 teas and a beer. We got the teas but the beer took about 15 minutes, in a restaurant that wasn’t very busy. After waiting another 10 minutes, he came to take our order when we informed him we were still waiting on menus. We were given menus after another 5 minutes. After another 15 minutes, he took our order and brought us biscuits. No napkins or silverware yet.my daughter got a salad at which time she was needing another tea refill. He took her drink from the table. After a half an hour from placing our order the main courses were brought out. Once the food was delivered, we had to ask for silverware. My husband ordered a lobster tail, shrimp scampi and sea scallops. His side was rice, which was crunchy as if it just came out of the box. No tenderness to the rice at all. We mentioned it to someone who blew us off and said it’s the little brown crunchies in the rice. No, I could pick it up with my fork, drop it to the plate and hear it land! The lobster was dry and you couldn’t get it out of the shell! The scallops were also dried out. Obviously, the plate sat under the heat lamp long enough to remove all moisture from the dish. I ordered 1 lb of crab legs which were a joke. At the most it was 1/2 lb and mostly the thin non meaty end pieces. Certainly no where near $34 worth of crab. I ordered a lobster tail add on for $13.50 and it too was small, dry, tough and hard to get out of the shell. It was a fight to get any meat at all out of either the lobster or crab legs. See photo. The baked potato was fine. My husband would not allow me to call a manager because he likes to avoid conflict, but I can voice my opinion here. Avoid this Red Lobster! The last time my daughter and I ate there, we had a similar experience and vowed not to go back but got a Red Lobster gift card for Christmas and decided to give them another try and use the gift card. A $25 gift card and a $100 later, we learned a valuable lesson.

The people were friendly but the portions seemed small, especially for the price. My husband got fish and chips and it was one small piece of fish and a handful of fries. I got the steak and baked potatoes. Two small ones in place of one big but that's fine. I like them to be done well so they are the right texture. The salad was ok. I expected the steak to be better. It was relatively tender but only seasoned with salt and pepper so kind of bland.

I really love this restaurant for many reasons. First of all, the cleanliness of the restaurant and it's old Salty Sea themed decor really set the mood for a great seafood dinner. The service was outstanding from the first time we entered the restaurant till we sat down and ordered our food and drinks. The servers we're very attentive to all our needs and their mood was very uplifting and fun. The menu had a great diverse amount of seafood dinners including daily specials which I found to be outstanding amongst any restaurant for pricing. The food was so fresh and delicious, and the aroma and presentation were out of this world. The atmosphere was very fun and all the customers were kept at a safe distance. The restrooms were exceptionally clean and up-to-date . I was very impressed! The dessert menu had a wide variety of desserts and they were all very tempting. You also don't have to worry about parking at this restaurant as there are so many parking spots to choose from. The handicap parking spots are located close to the building and there is a plentiful amount of room between spaces for wheelchairs. The exterior of the building is a great charm and is very clean and eye catching. Can't wait to come back to some of the best seafood that I have ever eaten here.

My fiance and I went for Valentine's day and got the New Lobster Fest date night dinner. It was AMAZING! It came with 2 streaks, 2 lobster tails, 2 shrimp skewers, bacon Mac and cheese with lobster sauce and 2 sides. It was all cooked perfect and tasted incredible. Definitely recommend the crispy brussel sprouts!! We'll definitely be back
