Red Lobster

Not big on chain restaurants me and my girlfriend love us some Red Lobster! (cheddar biscuits!!!) Service is always good and entrees excellent!

Service was good, food was just typical Red Lobster – not really fresh but not frozen tasting. Would recommend if you are a Red Lobster fan. But if you are looking for Sea Food wait until you are on vacation.

Friendly service, delicious food, quick payment. This chain always makes me feel like I’m eating at an elegant dining cuisine. One of my favorite chains.

I can’t really review this Red Lobster on their food, but I am giving them a 1 star for their service. My family and I had been traveling all day, and we decided to stop for dinner here. We got into the restaurant at 9pm, a full hour before closing. My brother even went in and asked them because we had a party of 10 (6 kids). They begrudgingly agreed after complaining, «Party of 10! Ugh…» We went in, and saw several of their staff openly complain about our party coming in. We decided to leave and the HOSTESS, whom we CLEARLY saw her being the main complainer, come up and try to save face and deny what we all saw. We decided to not give our business to a place that clearly didn’t want to accommodate us… We did realize it was later than normal, but it was a full hour before closing time. The issue was the open complaining by their entire staff. My suggestion to this staff is to learn how to accommodate people without grumbling and openly complaining and then denying it to our face.
**Also, my nephew did hear the hostess LIE to her manager that she didn’t know why we had left, after we clearly told her why we were leaving. So, I hope he manager reads this and realizes he has a dishonest employee as well.

I came into red lobster for a late lunch because I had a craving for some lobster tacos. The food was alright but the service was outstanding! Stephen was my server and was completely on point. He had my drink refill at the exact moment, checked up on me when my mouth wasn’t full, and knew exactly what I needed without me having to ask. I eat out pretty frequently and he was one of the best servers I’ve had in awhile. I’ll definitely be back, if only to request him.

Very long wait and shorter parties get right through barely accommodating. While they try, the just prove it is a moving assembly line.

They brought us three different kinds of napkins, which felt a bit overwhelming. Obviously, the cloth ones were high quality. The 2^nd variety of napkin reminded us of bathroom paper towels, which we did not like and the quality was poor (very thin). The third came with the cheesy biscuits and was all buttery. *UPDATE the napkins that looked like the came from the bathroom were identical to the ones in the bathroom.

You can’t get better quality than Red Lobster! No restaurant has the quality control standards than this one does I promise you. My favorite is crab Alfredo! Good company, excellent quality!

They don’t take reservations really. They do call ahead seating for parties of 6 and under only.
You can only call a hour in advance
Place is always busy and there is a long wait usually.
Food is the standard red lobster menu.

If you dine here, I have to guess you know what you are walking into… well established brand of mediocre seafood. Its like walking the plank only the seafood will be far less fresh. Unless you specified otherwise, your dish will be drowned in butter or sauce. Fresh, worthwhile seafood can almost stand on its own, so I can only assume there is lipstick on a pig effect in place for untrained palates. Highlight for most will be the cheesy biscuits which isn’t seafood. For a little more dinero, eat at Mitchell’s Fish Market. Trust me.

Went to have a relaxing time with friends and experience was under par at best. Our waitress started off really good like any other place. She came back when we was ready to order and we all ordered our food. We waited for 15 minutes for our biscuits and they came after our salads and which my salad was skimped on volume. My friend ordered her salad and the waitress said, ‘oh, you want a middle school salad’? That was very unprofessional and to me, would make me really uncomfortable. I ordered the salmon, skewered shrimp and lobster tail. She came back and said they were out of salmon and asked if I wanted to substitute it for talapia. I asked her if I would get a discount on it and she said no, they are the same price. Everyone knows that’s not true. Talapia is $ 4 a pound as salmon is $ 14. That’s like asking me to pay that price for a common pond catfish. After I asked her that, her mood instantly did a 360 and she became very short with us. I’m sorry, I’m not paying $ 30 for a piece of talapia. When she would bring refills and take plates away, she would reach across our plates and that’s a no no in anyone’s book. That allows stuff to fall off her clothes into our food. Needless to say, I won’t be coming back due to the unprofessionalism of the staff.

There food has gotten better over the years. This is not fast food but the food goes fast. Join there club and get discounts

Love Red Lobster! Ask for Bob! Excellent service every time.

Some things just aren’t as good as you remember. Nostalgia.
There is a serious dearth of chain restaurants in LA, so I like to visit them when I’m back home. The memories of the Red Lob don’t hold up. Even the heralded cheese biscuits aren’t as good as I remember. Shrimp was mushy and clearly not fresh. Caesar salad was watery. My niece’s crab legs looked gray and puny.
I know it’s a chain… I know I shouldn’t expect much. But let’s just say my «longing» for the Red Lobster has been satiated.

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
lobster fest.
Red Lobster is one of very few chain seafood places that is not fast food.
Allways good food

The servers are always friendly and on their game. For a chain restaurant, the food is always consistent and good. The wait to get a table is usually rather long. They should consider more seating for those who wait, one bench is not enough.

Shrimp, Shrimp, Shrimp, Shrimp… Endless Shrimp, YES! Who needs the salad, mashed potatoes, and cheese biscuit, just give me shrimp and I’ll be happy.
You get to pick two styles of shrimp and then when they bring your order, go on and choose another kind. I tried Garlic Shrimp Scampi and Parmesan Shrimp, but then I tried the Coconut Shrimp and OMG! A little spicy, a little sweet, a little crunchy, a little warm, a little cool. Yes, it hit all kinds of places in my mouth. I’m talking about the coconut shrimp and the dip that goes with it. The dip had coconut, pineapple, and piña colada mix. It was perfect to eat last since it was better than dessert.
One other thing I like about this location is the art on the walls. They have lighthouse pics that took me back to Maine… and that’s a great place to be.

Red Lobster for a chain company, is always consistent on the seafood quality. I have eaten at Red Lobster for years, never had any issues with service, quality and quantity. I love when they have the seafood feast… yummy all you can eat. Love there buttered biscuits.

Hey Toto, I’m not in Detroit, where’s my perch?
Stopped here because the roads in the area are absolutely horrible. Cincinnati has set a record for snowfall. No place close to drive, what to do?
Stayed at the Holiday Inn down the street, it was late, and close and OPEN.
When in a seafood restaurant check out the perch. WHAT!!! No perch! Now what? I opted for the old stand by, New York Strip. OK, situation, bad snow, not enough employees to take our order, forever to get the bisquits and the drinks. Oh boy, my steak will be just delicious. Guess what, it was. It had to be the best steak EVER from a seafood restaurant and even beat out some steak joints. The food actually arrived pretty fast, must have had the cook in on time for such a bad night. A couple of drinks later and a full stomach, ahh relaxin’.

I don’t like seafood at all, so for me to rate this place a three is a big deal.
I went here for my friend Zack’s birthday. I was worried because I usually don’t even like the smell of fish, but since it was his birthday I figured I’d just deal with it. I worried for nothing, this place smells amazing!
I ordered the Cajun Chicken Linguini Alfredo, chicken at a seafood restaurant (I’m weird, I know.) This was really delicious chicken though! And reasonably priced for 13.99.
The best part though, was the cheddar biscuits. Yummy! I definitely wouldn’t mind to go again for the chicken, and I even bet the fish wouldn’t be bad based on the smell alone. I won’t be willing to find out though due to previous experiences with fish, and the texture just seems odd to me.
I would recommend this place to anyone, even if it’s just for the cheddar biscuits!
