A surprisingly good experience! We read the negative reviews but my mom loves red lobster so we gave it a try. We came in for an early dinner so it wasn't busy and the service was great. I also thought the food was very good quality (we got the ultimate feast and several sides including the broccoli, asparagus, and brussel sprouts). They were out of a few items (kids mac and cheese, shrimp cocktail, Mahi Mahi) but everything we did have ended up being really good. The atmosphere is dated but clean, the music was good, and there were no “fish” smells like what I recall from my childhood visits. I thought the kids menu/booklet was great because it was full of fun activities like a word search and hidden pictures in addition to coloring. And of course the biscuits were

Felt like I was at Wendy’s. Inattentive server. I ordered fish n chips. My food was delivered in 3 minutes. Literally an hour later, I got up to find my server so I could pay. Her coworkers finally got her for me. No refill offered on my water. I try to support Red Lobster to keep them in business, but I’m officially done.

We made a reservation through OpenTable for 6 PM on a Saturday night. When we got there, the girl at the front desk said she showed no record of the reservation seemed very confused and it took another 10 minutes for her to go get someone else who could come and tell us what was going on. At that time she said we would have to be put on a waiting list with a 40 minute wait I said so there’s no reason to get reservations because it doesn’t matter when you get here you still go to the bottom of the waiting list. She said she didn’t know and finally another person came and was able to seat us but we had already been standing there for 15 minutes. We eventually got to order the food took over 45 minutes to come out even though the restaurant itself was probably less than half full. On a Saturday night, I can see that this would be a problem for the restaurant and they need to run a little more efficiently if they want to keep customers. The food was just so so I could’ve gotten the same quality of food buying in the freezer department at Kroger‘s. We probably won’t be back because of the service, under quality food, and ridiculously high prices.

Took nearly two hours- several patrons came in after us, and yet completed their meals and left before we were served. Our server was pleasant but seemed lost and oblivious.

We haven’t been to Red Lobster in ages. Thought we’d give it a try. It’s not as we remembered it. Our waitress needed a bit more training. Soup came out with meal , she kept forgetting items which took forever for her to bring. I think she liked spending more time talking to a male co-worker. Food was sub par. We won’t go back.
