About Red Lobster
We know the secret to great seafood is quality and freshness. That's why we've insisted on the finest seafood the sea has to offer since we opened our first restaurant in 1968. Since then, lots of things have changed. But one thing hasn't – our relentless pursuit of quality and, above all, freshness

My wife and I went on a Friday evening and were seated within 5 minutes. That was the end of the "good". Our waiter spoke so softly we couldn't understand a word and it took him about 15 minutes to get our drinks. Our salads came; my wife's was the wrong one. My Caesar salad barely had any dressing and was too small. After another 30 minutes or so, our food finally came. Our waiter gave us our drinks and didn't show back up until the check. No refills, no asking how it was...we felt like we were a bother to be there. The food didn't set well with me and I had to "go". The restroom was a disaster and the toilets had pee all over them. A cook was in there and didn't wash his hands afterwards. Nice. Walking back to my table, I saw our waiter standing around doing nothing. We were his only table and he was too dang lazy to work. Wrong food, no refills, wait forever for our food to arrive, and we pretty much could have served ourselves...it would have been faster. Not going back there again.

Very skimpy portions of salad and brocoli. Asked the waiter to take salad back and add more, which he did. This got us about half a salad bowl. Brocoli portion was 4 flowerets. This little bit on a $45 check per person. Still hungry after lobster tail. Will definitely not go back.

me and my fiance` walked in on a wednesday night...she was about 3 months pregnant or so...and craving seafood. Her being from maryland she likes good seafood and suggested red lobster..Im not sure exactly what time it was exactly, all i know is we got there 30 minutes b4 closing,and it was actually kinda busy for a wed night. As soon as we walk in we are greeted by a maybe 5ft guy with short hair maybe in his mid 20's to early 30's who when was told 2 and where we wantd to sit..rolled his eyes and walks off to the kitchen. My fiance and I looked at each other and walked out!

This Red Lobster really had its act together. The waiter was personable and accurate and the food was fresh. My husband and I really enjoyed the virgin pina colodas. I got fried flounder and there was so much I could share with my family and still fill up. My husband got a lobster and crab combo and although hefty in price, it was tasty. My kids enjoyed the fetticini and chicken also. We ended the meal with the apple crumble dessert and it was yummy. I really enjoyed this meal and I'm glad the restaurant strives to not fall into the "chain" mentality where everything seems so generic. I hope to be back again!

Ordered duplicate item for two patrons and received one order and an extra plate to share, waiter misunderstood order and I had to wait until an additional Broiled seafood platter was prepared for me, other two party members were through with meal when I received mine. Waiter apologized. Had to ask another waitress for a crab leg cracker because it took so long for our waiter to return. We felt that it must have been the waiters first day and we tried to be patient but, it didn't make dining any enjoyable.

Food was terrible. My fried oysters tasted like batter mix and the hushpuppies were under cooked. My wife had a 2 combination platter and said it was bland. Our first time there and it was our last time.

Took wife on our 25th wedding anniversary. Plenty of empty tables but got placed beside of servers/cooks door. The lobster was the worst lobster I've ever tasted in my life. Wife wasn't impressed neither.
