Red Lobster

Amazing food! I always eat a ton of their biscuits. I love their seafood too. they have some of the best food in town!

Never in My life have I seen one like Neveen. She is amazing I was about to leave until Neveen was our waitress. She caught my eye and I already knew this was going to be a good night. And… I was correct. She is amazing and like no other. I just and to leave her a review because if you want to eat at Red lobster ask for her.

I had a terrible experience here. Jeff was our server and he was extremely passive aggressive and rude. My order was not correct and when I told him he just walked away from the table. We sat for quite a while and after he didn’t come back I asked another server to get him. He came back after a lengthy time and when I explained that my order was not right he said he would get the manager and walked away. I spoke to the manager and while my meal was being re-​made, Jeff came back and snared at us as he took our dishes without saying anything. I know what you may be thinking. We were not rude to him in any kind of way. It felt like he didn’t even treat us like we were human beings. I was so upset at the way he treated us that I didn’t even finish my dinner and I didn’t want to be around his negative and rude vibes so I just got up and we left after settling the manner with the manager. The food was good and the hostess was super sweet, and the manager was very professional and kind and took care of everything. If it were not for Jeff I’d give this place at least 4 – 5 stars but one bad apple spoils the bunch. People like to judge you when you walk into a restaurant but every human being deserves to be treated with respect, especially if you are in the business of serving. I think Jeff would be better suited for working at a towing company because his personality would fit right in.

Today we came in for lunch and we received amazing service by Jessica. She was courteous, attentive and amazingly friendly.

Frequent this restaurant. Came on a Thursday for lunch. Light crowd, prompt service, and delicious food equaled another positive experience. Kudos to Veronica F. for her heart customer service!

Went there last night, family of five. Got crabfest menu items, lobster, Alfredo, steak and shrimp, couple of appetizers, and a couple of desserts. Every one of the items was simply great. The only problem was that we ordered too much food and to avoid monumental waste, ate a little too much. Kids can eat only so much.
Service was reasonable and nice. Although, due to a lot of people, there was quite some waiting for desserts and check. We were not in a hurry anyway, so it didn’t matter.
Highly recommended, if you want to burn some cash in exchange of good food.

A very nice seafood place, nice staff and good service.
shrimp in many different ways.

Two stars because the server was good and so were the biscuits. Everything else was not very good. The prices are high, I was surprised there was such a long wait. I can get a much better meal at Bonefish for same cost. I ordered a shrimp trio, it was greasy and everything pretty much tasted the same. My husband ordered the salmon, it was ok. Nothing I would come back again and order.

I love this place! Seafood is my absolute favorite! I hear all these complaints about «not getting fresh lobster from the tank» you have to ask to do that dummy’s! Remember when you where a kid and wanted to pick one out and the waiter took you over, and you picked one out, the scooped it up and took it to the kitchen, then you felt horrible when u saw it cooked on your plate because you picked that ones faith, lol, you have to ASK to pick one from the tank, if not they are just going to bring u one from the freezer or wherever. Love the food, just wish it wasn’t so expensive, but hey I’d pay to go there… only on a special occasion or holiday, this isn’t a eat out every day kind of place.

Love the red lobster. We had a great time at this location. The place is huge but the parking is a little off. The food was great and our waitress was on point.

Service was great. Food was ok for me. My wife had to send hers back which I’m not gonna hold against anybody because the manager did the right thing and comped the meal, no questions asked. This place gets 4 for service and going beyond what I expected from a red lobster.

My husband and I have dinner here at least once a month. We usually order the lobster pizza or coconut shrimp for an appetizer. Both are very tasty. The various grilled & fried fish, snow crab legs, and shrimp dishes are always seasoned and cooked appropriately and served hot. The cheddar bay biscuits are always fresh from the oven. The broccoli is lightly seasoned– not over cooked or soggy, and the salads are always fresh. One of the reasons we enjoy coming here is because the food & service are always consistent. We’ve had several servers who have been there for a long time and recognize us when we visit. They are prompt, friendly, and professional. The Mango Mai Tai is out of this world, and the Bay Breeze & Strawberry Passion Colada are also worth a try. We will continue to be regulars!

Once a year I get a hankering for cheddar biscuits. I know to not expect much from the rest of the meal. As such, my meal was fine. No major complaints.
The caesar salad was swimming in dressing so I didn’t eat more than a few bites. The stuffed tilapia was surprisingly good, though they didn’t include nearly as much as lobster and crab stuffing as on the promotional picture. Still, it wasn’t overcooked which is usually a problem at chains. I actually enjoyed it. RL could update their sides menu though. The baked potato and rice pilaf were uninspired.
JV ordered the 4 courses for $ 16 deal. He said his baked potato soup wasn’t very creamy but okay. The chicken alfredo was good and a Cheesecake Factory-​esqe portion. Good bang for your buck.
Like another reviewer, Neveen was our server and she was wonderful. Kept a smile on her face throughout our meal and brought refills of warm biscuits and cold drinks as needed.
Btw, in case you’re thinking of having a drink while waiting for a table, the bar literally has 4 seats.

Have eaten at many Red Lobsters and have always liked the food. I have to say that our waitress Neveen was «outstanding» it’s a real pleasure to eat somewhere and have someone like her waiting on you. We never had to ask for refills or more biscuits. She checked on us every 5 – 10 mins. and she was working multiple tables. I usually only give 3 – 4 stars for other Red Lobsters but I gave this one a 5 because of Neveen.

Must try the seafood pizza it is amazing. The whole families food was fast and very good. Will be back in the future.

What happened to Red Lobster? I used to go there as a kid and I remember it being a nice restaurant. First, the upsell — I was sitting down for about 2 seconds and my family was parking. The server was like «how about a bahama mama or a mojito while you wait» — no welcome to Red Lobster, just get some overpriced drinks NOW. I ordered water, when she came back she’s trying to do the upsell again on appetizers. Didn’t really make you feel warm and fuzzy. The biscuits which I remember as being super yummy were super greasy and no one ate them.
The food is expensive! I ordered the Seafood sampler with lobster, and grilled shrimp and garlic shrimp. It was pretty good, but the shrimp is literally drowning in butter, it really doesn’t look appetizing. The kids got popcorn shrimp and their fruit side was three pieces of an orange. The MIL ordered the salmon which was on their tableside flyer as one of the days specials. The server came back to tell her that it wasn’t available, really? Salmon that is listed as today’s special? And, you don’t know that it’s no longer available? The MIL picked the trout and those are really different fish, I really think that the server should have recommended something similiar — also, the entrée was spicy and MIL hates anything spicy, so that was it for her. The bill came to $ 100 for 3 adults and 2 kids and the experience was just kind of cheap feeling.
There are much nicer restaurants that are worth the price.

Eaten there many times and always excellent! I love the Maine lobster always sweet and cooked perfect. We love the lobster bisque mmmmm! and the margarita’s are always good!

My boyfriend and I went there for dinner the other night. I got the wood-​grilled chicken with portabello mushroom wine sauce and mashed potatoes. The food was really good. this is a favorite dish of mine. my wine was over-​priced for a small glass of sutter homes… $ 5.99/glass. The calamari and veggie app was a rip-​off… there was barely any calamari… Other than that, all was good. our server, Rose, was very attentive, kind and professional. I really liked her.
We will be back again for sure! Just not for the calamari app. lol

I’ve been to this red lobster a few times recently and overall I can only say that it is «Ok.» The service has been overall average, one server appears nice, the next appears to be rushing. The food tastes good though I wouldn’t say it’s the best quality, just a bunch of oils, sauces, and spices to cover it up. If their biscuits were sold in the super market I don’t know if I’d go into the restaurant. Overall I can just say Red Lobster is «Ok.»

I have NEVER re-​reviewed a place before on Unilocal,but after the meal I just had, I felt completed to. You see, for X-​mas, I received a gift card to Red Lobster from my sister, so I went out for a nice lobster meal with my mother.
As expected, the place was busy, and we had a 15 minute wait. Counted the lobsters as I was bored. Shortly thereafter we were seated and had a pleasant waitress. I went with the stuffed lobster as I felt the market price for a Maine was pretty good.
A few minutes later out salads arrived. My first thoguht was, «That was fast. Too fast.» And while my Caesar was fine, my mother was not t all happy about hers. She felt that the Italian dressing. was off, and pink to boot.
After what was about thirty minuets, our meals arrived. While mother thought her meal was «ok» at best, mine was terrible. The crab stuffing in the lobster was great, but the rest of the lobster was just atrocious.
First, my Maine lobster was much bigger than a 1 ¼. (Bigger lobsters tend to have less taste)
Second, the lobster was tough. And I mean tough, like overcooked by five minutes tough.
Third, it was completely devoid of any taste or flavor. Even the butter was separating within a minute of the plate arriving.
I had a hell of a fight to get the meat out of the claws and tail. In fact, it may have been easier to extract the meat from a live lobster caught by my bare hands in the Atlantic than to get the met out of this thing. And when I did, it was like trying to chew a wheel off a Metrorail train, which I might add, would have yielded more taste.
It clearly wasn’t a live Maine lobster, and I suspect it was a frozen. In fact, I suspect they took a frozen rock lobster from the freezer, defrosted it, and then overcooked it to speed up something they did in error in the kitchen.
Red Lobster has been declining in quality for years, but this was a new low. I barely made it home before I had to hit the facilities to return my lobster to the sea in which it came from.
Never again, Red Lobster, you’ve lost my business forever. After a decade plus of diminished standards, I am through with the chain outright. It’s been a year since my last review, and in the four visits since that last review, there has been no improvement. In fact, m they only seem to get worse.

SIDENOTE — There were the same number of lobsters in the tank when I left than when I entered. I recounted as I waited for my mother to come out of the ladies room. I know tank lobsters are show lobster.
