We went at 4:30 on Mother’s Day and were informed the wait would be twenty minutes. We were seated in ten. Our waitress, Dania(spelling?), was very attentive coming back many times and letting us know there was no hurry. She had rolls and my mom’s fish made with her spice restrictions. If only service was rated she earned the restaurant top marks, like 4.5 stars. We only asked for something once, all the other many times she beat us to the punch. There were bits of food and a paper napkin under one of the chairs. When a table is being readied cleaning should be part of the process. 2 stars here. The four fish dishes and sides were good. The portions are from small fish. A whole portion seemed like what one would expect of a half portion. The vegetables and potatoes are good. For this price point for what was served I’d give them 3 stars.

This red lobster was very pleasant the food is as expected but the two servers I had Keyanna and Binta were particularly great by far the best ones I’ve experience at this location.

Food was great and hot! Service was a joke. Our server never checked on us, never took the initiative to refill our waters or check to see how the food was. We had to ask other servers to get our server. Very disappointed in the service. We spoke to a manager and she threw the server under the bus saying he just finished training. Well then improve your training!

I took my husband there for his birthday today, he loves Red Lobster. We sat for 20 minutes before anyone came over to take our drink order. I ordered a water and my husband ordered a Sprite. We waited 10 minutes and no one came with any drinks so we ended up leaving. We were sitting at our for 30 minutes and never even got any biscuits :(

Went for the all you can eat shrimp special, at $ 16.99, to include those wonderful cheesy biscuits and two sides; it’s a great deal. Make sure to inquire with your waiter about this special, because I missed it on the menu and our server didn’t even mention it. We weren’t too upset with him, because he was quick in bringing us warm biscuits, new trays of shrimp and the refilling of our beverages. The overall vibe of this Red Lobster was friendly and family oriented. Lots of families here this evening, celebrating something and dining on the endless shrimp special and other seafood specialties. The shrimp were tender and tasty. I preferred the Shrimp Scampi, swimming in a pool of not so good for me butter and the lightly breaded shrimp, but there are several options to choose from. The menu doesn’t list them all, so you’ll need to inquire with your waiter on the various options. For an indulgent night out, it’s affordable and the service is friendly.

Had an awesome experience at red lobster this afternoon! We havent been in over a year, maybe even two. So I suggested to my mom we should try red lobster for the biscuits. We weren’t dissappointed! Went for a late lunch around 4:00 this afternoon. Our waitress was Dania. She was awesome, really polite and friendly and knew all the upcharges and sides and you could tell she had been there for a while. My mom ordered the 16.994 course meal, which came with a soup, a salad, an entrée and a dessert. She ordered the lobster bisque which i dipped some crackers in and thought was delicious, full of lobster meat and super rich and creamy. We both got garden salads which were tasty and fresh, and D kept the biscuits coming, which were always fresh and delicious. By the time our food came we were full, but we were super hungry… so our first basket of biscuits went fast. I ordered the grilled tacos with chicken, and instead of the rice pilaf i wanted fries. The tacos were SO good, the chicken was seasoned perfectly juicy and the jalapeño ranch was a tasty dipping sauce. My mom ordered the coconut and chili pineapple grilled shrimp combo, which came with two sides. It was a lot of food for the price! Dessert was delicious, a warm brownie which i assumed was a smaller size than if you ordered it on its own from the menu, but still perfect sized. It came with chocolate and caramel sauces and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. My mom and I left satisfied and stuffed for 30 bucks! It was great.

Usually I like Red Lobster, but I was disappointed tonight. The salad was wilted and the veges in the salad were old and soggy. I couldn’t eat it. The fish was good and the baked potato was OK, the broccoli was old, it was yellowish. The biscuits were yummy, as usual. I don’t know if I will go there again, I was disappointed with the food. The service was great!

I haven’t been to a Red Lobster in a while. I work in the area so decided to grab lunch here. The location is easily accessible and they have plenty of parking. It wasn’t crowded at all when I got there around 1200. I was a little put off by the old carpet and the worn out waiting area couch. The place look like it did years ago when I last came. It is probably time for a few renovations or at the very least brighter paint. I must say they have improved their lunch menu and have some very affordable new options. They also have just the right sized portions so you can actually finish your meal and not drag smelly seafood around with you the rest of the day. The cheddar bake biscuits are still great though they are a little smaller than I remember. No problem since they will keep bringing them as long as you want. I had some fried shrimp and rice pilaf. It was well papered and the shrimp were not burnt or under cooked. The service was prompt and courteous. Nothing really wowed me about the place but nothing was bad. It’s a solid option for lunch and I shall return,

I so like this one better, than the other one. Staff is nice and friendly. The ambiance at this location is so much fresher and brighter then the other one. Food is great except they need to work on, the ratio from the time you order, till the time your food comes. I especially like how the managers walk around to make sure, your food is okay and if you need refills on your drinks, and overall making sure your need are met. Love the salmon, and Im not ashamed to say that I am addicted to the biscuits. Overall I recommend this spot to anyone.

Clean and kid friendly restaurant, the steamed lobster with wild rice and broccoli is good, the rest of the offering is average, it’s easy to park, the service is good, etc.

I have always loved Red lobster especially for those Cheddar Bay biscuits. The service at this particular restaurant is always on point. The only thin I would say is maybe get the carpets cleaned more often, they smelled like mildew when we arrived. There is really nothing bad I can say about them. They were excellent and the food taste great! Keep up the good work.

Red Lobster has changed some things on their menu for the good, but you might not notice because they are very subtle within the dishes and presentation. The cheddar bake biscuits are still the bomb and the food is still good. They need to change the carpet inside since it is showing that it has been their since the building has been built. Customer service is on point and they definitely know their menu and what they are capable of when special requests are made.

This review should be 10 star double 5 star!!! My girl friend and I went there as my girl friend is big fan of sea foods but im not, just to make her happy i took here to Red Lobster, She ordered her sea food and I was unsure what really to order so SAM the General Manager at Red Lobster politely came to our table and helped me to choose a steak and how i want to cook! He was so nice and very helpful I dont drink but my girl friend is a drinker but she didn’t left her ID at home and sam didn’t let us get an Alcoholic Beverage due to not showing her ID I understand his point and its his job and has to follow the company policy! The restaurant was very very clean the Waitress was so nice and friendly the food tasted great and was ready fast! Thanks to general manager SAM for showing us a great experience at Red Lobster, even though I’m not a big fan of sea foods but I will come back for their steak which was as good as Outback!

Come here if you want to get food poisoning. That’s what happened to me a few years ago. Feverish for two days with convulsive vomiting and liquid coming out the other end for days. I honestly should have went to a hospital. All these symptoms occurring about an hour after I ate here(and having not eaten all day). I called the state health board on these guys when I recovered. They conducted an impromptu inspection and found several violations. If you think Red Lobster is quality seafood, then you deserve to get poisoned.

Not a huge huge fan of chain resturants — but please, what can compete with REDLOBSTER? Delish food and amazing service. I always get the COCONUTSHRIMP here and it is to die for ! This local was large and spaced out, recently remodeled. Waitress was very swift, efficient and sweet. We gave her a 30% tip for her superior service. She refilled drinks without us asking, and was extremely pleasant. She made the entire experience memorable. We will be back !

I love the shrimp scampi and I love the steak. Of course crab legs and lobster is good here but seriously, I cannot go here without getting an order of shrimp scampi. I do not know how they make their sauce for this dish but I love it. My steaks are always cooked to my liking and are very flavorful. A1 is not something you will need here for the steak since it is perfectly seasoned. The sides are great too. If you are looking for good seafood at a reasonable price, you can’t go wrong hitting up the Red Lobster. I am sure there are haters out there who will say that the seafood isn’t all that or even that good here but hey, if you don’t like the way they cook or the way it tastes, why are you even eating at this place? Thanks for reading my review. This review is based off of my personal experience and opinion.

TERRIBLE service! We had hair in our salt, the crab was rubbery(not as a crab should taste at all), and our green beans were thoroughly undercooked. I brought this to the attention of a manager in the kindest way possible and was treated like a child. She told me that«we either like the green beans or we don’t.» And that she couldn’t control hair being in salt. She was absolutely rude and very unhelpful. NOT worth the money! Terrible service and terrible food. Avoid!
