Red Lobster

Great Service and Food! Lamont was great! Best Red Lobster experience we’ve had in a long time. Will definitely come back to this location.

Me and my Girlfriend really enjoyed our night at Red Lobster, the food was prepared well, loved the shrimp lettuce wraps, grilled chicken tacos are wonderful my girl friends mashed potatoes were kinda cold, so our waitress Tabitha T. quickly got her some hot ones, Tabitha made our dinning experience special due to her friendly and positive attitude even at near closing time. Thanks again Tabitha T. We will be back soon :-)

Service here is terrible! No hello, no how are you, no kiss my ass, nothing! Just an abrupt «follow me». We knew what we wanted as soon as we walked in, no need to even look at the menu. We still had to wait over 20 minutes just to order a drink on a slow weekday night. Our server never looked us in our face. I told her I wanted my drink with my food so that it wouldn’t be watered down, that must have been a joke for her. I almost walked out, my food was hot and fresh though I must say. My crab legs could have been better.

I come here maybe once a year for endless shrimp and it gets three stars because the shrimp really is delightful and the portions are good, too! I’m just not happy with the horrible service :(. We had some dude named Jeff D and although he was pleasant, the service was so so slow. Everything took forever! From being greeted, to getting drinks and getting the check. I’ll probably come back, maybe to a different location.

Man… man oh man. Red Lobster use to be THE SPOT. I don’t know what happened =(
So like people have said before; Red Lobster isn’t the worst place in the world, they just have to do better. However they like staying on the decline!
Service — The waiter could have did a little better. First I order some mozzarella sticks. My GF had a sudden change of heart and decided she wanted to get a appetizer too. When the waiter came back she conveyed this to him. At first he didn’t understand what she was saying. She wanted to add an appetizer for the «create your appetizer» combo. When the food came, my Mozzarella sticks came, AND THEN more sticks came along with her appetizer. So we had all these extra food that I wasn’t going to eat and still got charged for it. Next thing Red Lobster could work on is biscuits. WE ALL LOVE their biscuits. Stop giving us 2 or 3 at a time. Red Lobster use to hand out 5 or 6 to a table. I don’t mind asking the waiter for more biscuits, just know I’m going to ask the waiter about 7 times in the night.
Next the salads… I’m still waiting… never got them.
The food was pretty good. Nothing spectacular, however it is just not like it was back in the day. Over all I’d go back, but I will literally have to be STARVING and nothing else around. I moved to DC from Utah. In Utah Red Lobster was the only thing around, therefore it could afford to mess up. Where else we going to go. But in DC/​Baltimore??? I can go to the mom and pop seafood joint down the street and get better food for HALF the price.

WE got hungry after shopping so we tried Red Lobster, It has been a while since I been but this was a very nice experience. Once seated our waiter Kevin was very polite and not overbearing. The crunchy fried fish sandwich with fries was excellent. I never had to ask for a refill on my drink. The apple dessert was just the right portion. All in all had a great experience and may actually return. Awesome service…

Nice place to eat. Over the years I’ve always had great service and good food. It is a little noisy. For the money I spend there I would prefer a quieter setting but I’m still a repeat customer.

I just went this past Sunday with my family. Excellent, prompt service! Our server was Kate and she deserved her tip because she was very attentive and helpful. LOVE the coconut shrimp! Shrimp alfredo was overflowing with shrimp. Cheddar bay biscuits were on point. We had a wonderful family time. We will definitely return.

Endless shrimp was awesome! Had the parmesan, garlic and sirachi! Long with broccoli and salad! Very good. My aunt has the same and my cousin had the tilapia and broccoli. All very good.

Service was terrible. The waitress could have done a better job. Whem I was with my parents I didn’t like the way the waitress treated my Mom.

Service was excellent! Food was enjoyable but had tto be compared to seafood in an area famous for its seafood.

My number one pet peeve is that my drink should always be full. The service was awesome. I never had to ask for a refill. Waiter was constantly asking us how we were doing. My cherry coke had like 8 cherries in it each time. The amount of food that we got for the price was about what you would expect. Quality could have been better. Awesome service though, not to loud. Only thing that drove me a little crazy was the sanctimonious brat sitting behind us, butting into our conversation, and then trying to talk shit. I realize they have no control over who there customers are so that’s fine. All in all I was pleased, food could use a little work though.

It was Mother’s Day, and I figured we eat some seafood somewhere else besides Phillips. The ladies at the front desk made a huge positive impression on me; they immediately gave me a «notifier» gadget and pleasantly told me that our party of four could have to wait 40mins. Honestly, I wasn’t expecting anything better, cos we’ve waited longer at similar restaurants, but as it turns out, we only waited 9minutes before the handy gadget started buzzing, notifying me that our table was ready!
Lisa, our server, was courteous and professional. The food was Great. My wife and kids loved it. We had a good time!
I highly recommend this Red Lobster.

Love the biscuits :) started out with no spoon for the soup. No dressing on the salad and no wine. Another waitresses stepped in and fixed it all. Wife & daughter ordered blue cheese steaks which came without the blue cheese. Mixrd review because another waitress helped fix the initial problems. Could have neen worse, could have been better. Finnished with desserts.

I don’t frequent Red Lobster but when I do I really enjoy the biscuits. (The whole reason people go to Red Lobster). This location a biscuit are really bad. The first batch was old and stale. The second batch was hot but they were extremely HARD!!! Then utensils and glasses were dirty with stuck on food. Service was good but I don’t think I would return to this location again.

This was one of the worst dining experiences that I have ever had; from the first touch onward. The food was luke warm, lacked flavor and was cold. My wife’s lobster was OVERCOOKED and tasted like rubber. My salmon was also extremely dry and over cooked. The biscuits also tasted old and they were neither hot nor fresh. The appetizer (lobster/​artichoke dip) was so greasy we had I send it back. There was literally about 3 ounces of grease sitting on top of the dip.
I submitted my feedback online as well as via other means. I actually want a refund. I, now, have an upset stomach and would LOVE to get my money back. It was a waste of a dining experience. I need every penny I get and don’t have the funds, time nor money to waste.

Normally, I’m not a big fan of Red Lobster but this location is pretty sweet.
The Missus and I came here after seeing a movie in Annapolis. It was midday, about 2-​ish — and we were both hungry (no popcorn at the movie theater) and she had a hankering for the cheesy biscuits they serve. So, we stopped off.
It was really quite nice. The layout was nice, the booths were roomy, the waitress and hostess were friendly and efficient and, best of all the food was actually pretty good.
Of course, we scarfed down the biscuits. They were wonderful. We both ordered the Teriyaki salmon (lunch portion). It was really pretty tasty. The Teriyaki flavoring was not overpowering as some restaurants do and while we had a choice of sides (the starch) we went with the wild rice which was also very tasty.
The waitress was attentive without being overbearing and we were able to have a leisurely lunch and (this is key) we got the check when we were finished and ready to leave. No interminable wait for a check at the end.
Bottom line: good food, good atmosphere, good service. I was impressed.

I’m a transplant from upstate NY and I’m not ashamed to admit that among the legions of seafood restaurants in Annapolis, this Red Lobster is my favorite. I love this place so much I even worked there as a bartender in Harrisonburg, VA while going to grad school.
This particular location has the same menu and layout of all the other places so no noteworthy differences there, but the service is always excellent at this place. One friendly waitress taught me the ropes on how to get the most out of the all you can eat shrimp feast (place your last order when you are full and sneakily box up the leftovers).
Whenever I go I get either the Ultimate Feast, whatever the current «all you can eat» special is, or «create your own feast» and cram in the cheddar buscuits while my native Annapolitan husband hides his head in shame. I don’t care though, I’ll shout it from the rooftops — I LOVE ME SOME RED LOBSTER.

1. I don’t understand the raves about the biscuits. Yes they are good, but do not deserve all the attention.
2.My wife ordered pasta with asparagus and lobster. The sauce tasted like some gummy mess. It was supposed to be a rose’ sauce, but it was the farthest thing from that.
3. My stepson got the shrimp platter. On the menu it sounded like you were going to get this tremendous plate of shrimp. Not so. I think he had 8 total.
4. My entrée was a pasta alfredo with seafood. Bland and not worth the money.
Seriously, how does this chain stay in business?

Ok, so let’s be honest. 99% of the people that eat here only come for the amazing orgasm in your mouth Cheddar Bay biscuits. If they decided to stop serving those I bet they would see a major decline in business.
Ok now that we got that out the way, I will say being from Maryland I have grown up on some of the freshest crabs and fresh fish from my uncle’s weekly fishing trips. Red Lobster isn’t the WORST place for seafood, but it certainly isn’t your first choice for seafood ESPECIALLY considering the Annapolis downtown harbor area is only a minute away.
Mom usually get’s rainbow trout fried or grilled. She usually enjoys it although last time from my side of the table it looked mad greasy. I get the shrimp trio and its average. Nothing horrible but also not something you would write home about. Also the Caesar salad that they bring out before your mean is horrendous. Like seriously as much as i love Caesar salad’s I would opt for a garden salad.
Perhaps if you lived in an area where seafood establishments are hard to come by, Red Lobster would be your main spot. However, living in the DC/​Baltimore area their are just far too many superior alternatives. Red Lobster is also a little pricey. I will say the servers at this particular location are awesome. Also it’s literally right next to Annapolis Mall, so the location makes it super convenient.
