    We were really looking forward to eating here since the location near us had closed a year ago. Same menu and we enjoyed a couple of our favorite meals. Server was friendly and attentive. Kept our drinks refilled and asking if we needed anything. Very pleasant experience.

    So why 4 stars and not 5? Went for the first time in 31 years, since I got married, and was really surprised at how good the food was. I had the Surf and Turf! The second time, in a week, the Surf and Turf wasn't quite the same. The steak had gristle and wasn't as flavorful this time, but the rest of the meal was exceptional! My wife had the Salmon Bowl and loved it. The vegetables on each of our plates were cooked to perfection. If you had blindfolded me and not told me where I was dining, I would have had no idea I was at a Red Lobster - again, the first time was better this week then the second time. The employees were all very polite and attentive, earning a high tip!

    My adult daughter and I enjoyed Lobster Fest for the second time in 2 weeks, and it was great again. We had the same wonderful service by Elena R as she is attentive, caring and helpful. Our order with extra requests was perfect again. The meal was tasty and the lobster was cooked perfectly. Even the broccoli was very flavorful which is new as it was usually rather bland in the past. We were seated in a booth as requested. I would recommend anyone wanting great tasting food to visit Red Lobster-Palm Desert.

    The restaurant and bar look nicely done but the food, especially the lobster, was just ok. The lobster especially, was overcooked and a disappointment! Service was exceedingly well done, cheerful and served well.

    I made a reservation and we arrived 10 minutes early. The place was virtually empty but the hostess told us that the kitchen was on hold and she didn’t think she could seat us right away. My husband said there were no people there so why is the kitchen on hold? She then went to seat us but in the lounge. We said we didn’t want to be in the lounge so she took us into a back corner of the dining area right next to the door from the lounge and kitchen …we said we wanted to sit in the main dining room in one of the empty booths and she finally took us in there. Having gone through that, our waiter Johnny was wonderful and attentive and the food was ok…won’t be going back there…
