Red Lobster

My wife and I went to red lobster tonight for a date night. THey changed the menu and I must say the food was very good. Our server was very good and very attentive to our needs. My only advice is to let your food cool down a little before you eat it — But that’s my own problem. I will definitely go back to Red Lobster again.

Food was good but service was excellent from ShellyAnn! Service with a smile. She made our night.

Yummy in my tummy!
I hadn’t been to Red Lobster in about 5 years, and the last time I had gone, I lived in California. My boyfriend was craving their cheddar biscuits, so we went here one evening for a dinner date. Those biscuits are to die for! I ordered a combination dinner with the new England clam chowder, a grilled shrimp entrée, and the coconut shrimp. The coconut shrimp was by far my favorite between the entrees, and the clam chowder was tasty too. My boyfriend thoroughly enjoyed his cajun chicken pasta dish. The only thing I would say this place can improve on is the service. Our server was nice, but not overly friendly and not very attentive.

As far as seafood goes this place was very average and if it were not for the combination dinner special which was OK for the price there was not much to rave about.
My brother who can eat anything also did not look that thrilled.
The table we sat at was dimly lit prolly intentionally so that one cannot see how small the portions were. Our waitress warmed up to us towards the end of our meal around about the time for the gratuities… hmmmmm has any one else noticed this has ever happened to them at some of the joints we frequent or is it just good old sensitive me!
We MAY be back if all the feeding joints in our neck of the woods are closed!

Food was good but the service was awful. The server only had one other table than mine and the manager had to refill my soda after 15 minutes of waiting.

I haven’t been to a red lobster in I don’t know how long but the cheese biscuits didn’t disappoint! They serve them in unlimited quantities at the table along with your meal. I ordered the shrimp alfredo in the full portion size. The full is gigantic compared to the half order, but for the price ordering the full size is the way to go. That is if you’re okay with leftovers. Because you will have leftovers. The dinner also comes with salad but for a slight up charge you can get soup. The soup is a bowl of soup instead of a small cup too. I had the clam chowder, which was tasty but needed to be warmer. I ended up filling up on biscuits and clam chowder so my full size portion was enough for another 2 meals. Which works for me, then I feel like I’m getting a better deal. Price wise, for seafood it’s pretty on par with what you would find at other seafood places. I definitely want to try the all you can eat shrimp deals that they do when they offer that promotion. So I will definitely be back to this location.

We had the sampler so, very tasty.
I had the grilled seafood platter, prepared very icelyy, shrimp scewer could have been a little more cooked, scallops were excellent, as were the lobstertails, and the burboin glaze was delightful.

I have to first congratulate this location for being quick in seating us and the server attending to us without delay. My perfect compliment to Nia, our server. She was outstanding with her attentive to our needs (drinks, appetizers and entrée), she had a very good personality and she was very helpful to my fiancé and I when we were deciding on our menu items. She is, by far, one of the best servers Chuck and I have ever had the pleasure to experience. I would recommend this location to anyone and especially, if they can have Nia as their server!

Once known for fresh shellfish too, the current offering of shrimp appears frozen and smaller than what is commonly referred to as «large» sizing. Crab also seems to be flash frozen and ordered well in advance of its use.
Our family once loved the seasonal «All you can eat shrimp» deal and have watched as the price rose significantly, the choices made fewer (to a point where they offer the slow moving menu items with only 1 – 2 popular items), and the shrimp look and taste like frozen shrimp found in the freezer section at Publix. Their scampi and coconut offerings would be delicious if you could also taste the shellfish !!
The servers are attentive and seem to make a reasonable wage in tips based upon the average price per meal. The managers are often not visible and don’t usually visit guests. The lobby is normally moving at a reasonable pace. This location does well with the senior population and offers coupons nationally to entice visit.
They simply need to get back to real, fresh seafood. Not just on their daily specials but included on their other entrees as well. It’s a shame when the Chesapeake Biscuits are the star of the visit !!
Reached out via social media to discuss meal and never received courtesy of reply other than «message being forwarded to another party» … Truly 1stsr service !

Decided to go to red lobster after shopping at the mall. We got seated right away which was nice because I was starving. We usually order appetizer but didn’t this time. We just went straight to the main course. I ordered the full order of crab Alfredo $ 19.99. It was delicious! I was surprised at how much crab they actually put in the dish. The Alfredo sauce was good as well. My husband got the crab lovers dream. $ 29.99 which came with crab Alfredo, split king crab and instead of stone crab he got the Bairdi crab $ 1.79 extra. He loved the Bairdi crab said it was very meaty and sweet. The king crab was on the small side so it wasnt as meaty or Sweet as the bairdi crab. For dessert we got the chocolate wave $ 6.99 came with a side of vanilla ice cream. The cake was a very moist chocolate cake, it was yummy!
Our server Samantha was outstanding! Ask for her table, she knows her stuff. We will come back and ask for her when we are in the mood for some banging cheddar biscuits and seafood.

Your typical red lobster great food, always get great service. The biscuits ughhhh hate being on a diet and having to go here. Lol I always get the trio never took a pic of it because I obviously was being greedy an couldn’t wait lol. Sometimes on a Friday or sat it can get busy so try to call and reserve a seat. Other than that, love red lobster. Oh btw my favorite drink from here is the Bahama mama yum

The food was pretty good. The biscuits are amazing… I go there mostly for biscuits lol. I had a mudslide drink and the parmesan crusted chicken with a caesar salad (I’m not a seafood eater). Everything was yummy. Our waitress was very pushy for us to order from the crabfest menu and to get some other alcoholic beverage.

I hate to do this to one of my favorite restaurant franchises but seriously? The oldest workers and slowest service I have ever had at a Red Lobster. I mean it was empty at lunch and still.
Food, well the lobster pizza was soggy and no lobster. It was like it was microwaved and then served cold. The biscuit was good and glazed chicken was decent but I would never go back to this location of I could help it.

I’m not the biggest fan of chain type restaurants but I must say this is probably the nicest Red Lobster I have been to… The hostess greeted us and she was over the top friendly… Our waitress was equally as friendly and very helpful and informative. They also must have stepped the food up because we all cleared our plates the manager I think Peter was his name stopped by our table to check on everything and he was also very nice. I think they have had some type of management/​employee sifting around because it just seemed like everybody had gone above and beyond our expectations it seems like they cleaned out the old staff and really improved with the customer service. We will most likely come back again when we are in the area.

I am very disappointed at the experience I had at this location. It took 15 minutes for our server to greet us, there was a puddle of water under my table, I asked for it to be cleaned and our server never followed through. Our server was not attentive at all. Appetizers came and he didn’t give us silverware or small plates. I had to get up and get it my self after he assured he was going to bring them which he never did. Entrees came and our server didn’t remove the dirty plates and app plates from our table. Overall the experience was not good. I do not recommend this location or any red lobster to anyone.

This particular Red Lobster is old and in severe need of an update. It’s noisy, crowded and inexplicably has a line out the door every weekend evening. I don’t get it. The food is nothing special at all. The worst thing is that the last time we went there, I was completely grossed out by the bathroom, which had feces and water all over the floor. The smell will forever be associated in my brain with Red Lobster– so they’ve lost me forever.

Amazing seafood awesome place I love the food I go all the time great service their lobster is the best their crab is great too I love going there to eat it’s very chill place to eat something that really hits the spot

Lunch at red lobster has changed over the years. No longer is red lobster a dingy old place for boring people. They are changing and changing for good.
Lunch options have improved tremendously. The have all sorts of tacos-​fish, shrimp, lobster on the menu. There is a sailors platter and the famous red lobster biscuit starters are always available as usual.
The décor of red lobster has also improved. No longer is the restaurant dark and muggy like the inside of a ship. Now it is more sunny and bright like the deck of the ship.
The desserts are still amazing and guess what once stuffed you can be ready for a great afternoon nap!!!

We went in for the 4 course special (16.99). you get soup salad an entrée and desert. MATT was our waiter… he was so patient and courteous and was a great server (ask to sit with him he will take care of you). I had clam chowder a salad linguini with shrimp and scallops and key lime pie. My dad had the talapia the chowder a salad and cheesecake, he loved it! The meal was delicious! we will be back

The damn Shrimp Scampi is so addictive. What’s crazy is the shrimp are usually on the small side and over cooked too but they are so F’ing good. Best time to go is when the all you can eat shrimp gig is on.
Red Lobster *sigh* why do I love you? You remind of a girl that has average looks but is a beast in bed lol. Oh well, Remember to tell them Dan sent you and Stay Hungry!
