    First time to this location. Service was excellent. The scallop appetizer was cooked perfectly. It was my birthday, so I got my usual Admiral's Feast. Delicious as always. They gave me a free sundae too! We'll definitely be back!

    A nice restaurant that served fresh lobsters. Good service and the place wasn’t packed at all. The lobsters were quite tasty and the crab was good. Surprisingly both the biscuits and coleslaw were delicious. We enjoyed the shrimp garlic linguine too. They didn’t do well on the fish n’ chips that was dry. We would come again soon.

    Picked up soup and veggies after work for an easy dinner on this snowy night. Everything was ready when scheduled and it was all warm and yummy. They even braved the cold to bring my order curbside. Thank you very much for your kind service.

    Great size pieces of shrimp with the $17.99 all you can eat shrimp! My wife and I were very happy.

    Meh . . . Was A Pretty Slow Tuesday Night, So I Expected Better Quality Of My Food. My Hubby & I Got There & Immediately Ordered Drinks. DATE NIGHT! Our Server, Alex (AMAZING Btw) Sold Us On The $2 Upsale To Make Them LOBSTERITAS (Pictured) So Huge & Delicious. Since It Was A "Go All Out" Type Of Night, My Hubby Ordered The Ultimate Feast (Pictured), With The House Salad & Loaded Mashed Potatoes. I Did The Make Your Own With Salmon & The Filet Mignon (Both Medium Rare) With The Caesar Salad & Loaded Mashed. Drinks Took Awhile But It's Okay, My Hubbs & I Actually Talk In Our Relationship 🤣 Anyway, Food Finally Came Out & We Were Stoked. Of Ask the Places We've Been, He's Never Been To Red Lobster Let Alone Tried A Cheddar Biscuit! Anyway, Flavoring Was Everything! Hubby Especially Enjoyed The Garlic Shrimp Scampi. Salmon Was Good (Little Overcooked For Me) & The Filet Was Flavorful! & THOSE POTATOES! OMG, Delicious!

    The prices have gone way up for what is served. Food was pretty good, I had the snow crab legs which were good. Would be nice if you could choose a spice or something to add to it. Cheddar bay biscuits are always delicious. Server was super friendly and service was pretty quick.

    Everything was perfect the hostess was there waiting to greet us and very professional the bartending Ariel everyone was singing and happy and the server was very sweet and thorough and the manager was on target to check on us at the rights perfect time. The only thing I would say is maybe read the room when two people enter to be sat , maybe the hostess could have set us and a more private setting as we had to sit next to a family and it seemed like that this so that they could clean the rest of the restaurant but it's important about atmosphere for me and my husband to be to have a quiet space that we could discuss things as we cannot discuss things with the family sitting right there. But hey I learn that it was awesome 👍

    We usually go to the red lobster by powers and man I wish we went there instead When we finally got served and when we did we got hard biscuits to where they crumpled and tasted gross I asked the waiter for new ones and she straight up told me no that’s how they are Like what? Anytime I eat at the other location they’re so good and soft! She got an attitude when I asked for new ones Super rude of me to ask for fresh food!? I was ready to just get up and go to the other location til my wife stopped me Do better I definitely won’t come back to this location If you want FRESH food and GOOD service go to the other location

    Had an absolute blast with my wive, Pauline our waitress made our experience even better. She had our food flying out the kitchen ensuring it was fresh and hot, got me a refill of pepsi without even me asking. Thank you for making my Veterans day meal all the better

    I'm not much of a surf and turf person, but I went here for a friend's birthday meal. It was a delightful experience for all involved. They have a good selection to hopefully meet almost most tastes. Was also happy to hear that they take special care if anyone has a shellfish allergy. The food was good and the service was great.

    I went in with my family and we had to wait a while for our table. We understand that we might have to wait but there were open tables and booths. We then got seated and waited maybe 20 minutes until someone came to our table. She just came to take our orders and didn’t ask us if we wanted something to drink or if we wanted an appetizer. We quickly ordered something and expected to get our drinks or water at least. We waited another 30 minutes for our drinks. During that time I had to ask another server if he could bring us some biscuits because they didn’t serve us that either. Our water finally arrived and then 10 minutes after, our appetizers. We then were missing an appetizer and we had to ask the other waiter again if we could get some appetizer plates because we weren’t given any. After maybe 2 hours in red lobster we finally got to eat. Our waiter was not the best or maybe she was having a bad day. Usually at red lobster I do not get treated this way and I will definitely not be back at this location.

    It was very quiet for a weekend evening out away from our kids. No waiting at all! Our waiter, Cody Q, was amazing. He was cheerful and got everything on our order correct. We enjoyed talking with him, and his positivity was contageous. Our food was hot and delicious! My wife ordered her favorite, which is the seafood bake over linguine. Crabfest is back after a 4-year absence, and I chose the 1/2-lbs of snow crab legs and NY strip smothered in Oscar lobster cream. My steak was perfect, and the crab legs were very tasty.

    The food was great, and the portion was filling. Service was very polite and fast. I got there around 7 pm, and it wasn't very busy. The only negative thing I can say about Red Lobster 🦞 is their prices... for 2 people to eat comfortably and have a couple of beers, it was around 70 bucks, just so You know!

    It's been quite a while since I've been here. Our server was great, and kept making suggestions, which all sounded fantastic as she described them. It was pretty good! I got the Lobster Bake Pasta, and was very surprised by the amount of seafood that came on top! I was very pleased about this! I will definitely be coming here again!

    Delicious had such a wonderful time with my family...definitely will do it again soon!!!

    Very good service. Food was generous in proportion and well cooked. Seating area was warm for a windy chilled day when we arrived. Maybe 45 minutes later, the air conditioner was turned on. I got too chilly, only reason I didn't give 5 stars

    Awesome service, delicious food. Our server was training another girl and they did such a great job tonight. The service was prompt, food came out at great intervals and was amazing. Both servers also made sure to check on us regularly and ask if we needed refills or anything else. Thanks ladies for making our meal such a pleasant experience!!!💜

    Food was amazing. Very tasty. Hot. Fresh. The biscuits were delicious. Malacai is an awesome server. He is highly professional, knowledgeable and attentive. Very friendly. We had the Blackened Chicken Linguini and the Wednesday Steak and Lobster Special. The Linguini has great flavor and the blackened chicken was cooked properly. The Steak was cooked exactly to order and the food was plated well. The only issue we experienced (I didn’t take any stars away because it isn’t RLs fault) was the clientele of the business. The family on one side of our booth had a child who wasn’t displaying appropriate behavior. The child was repeatedly coughing (acting out) purposely. Burping, etc. The parents repeatedly asked the child “are you doing this on purpose” “hahahaha” and the child would respond yes and continue. It seemed like a joke to all of them. It’s not a joke. It’s gross. The family behind us was having a heated conversation and in disagreement. I don’t think the wait staff picked up on the “table drama” and we certainly didn’t say anything. Just seemed off. We eat at restaurants often and it usually isn’t uncomfortable because of others around our table.

    Most of the food was good, but the speed of service and the atmosphere really killed it for us. We were sat behind a young couple clearly on their first date, talking very loudly about themselves to the point where we felt awkward, and we couldn’t even have a conversation with one another. They seated everyone (5-6 couples) all in one concentrated area, while most of the restaurant was empty. Our food took about 40 minutes to come out. Husband ordered endless shrimp and it took so long between refills that he finally gave up before he was really done. Everything was extremely slow paced here. Even getting 2 margaritas took 20 minutes. And the price of weak cocktails was just crazy, and they don’t list prices for them on the menu. $12.95 for small patron margarita and charged $.99 to flavor it with a squirt of syrup😂Overall, if you really want Red Lobster and you have a lot of free time, it’s fine, but I value the way I am treated more than anything, so I will stay away from here.
