Red Lobster

Red lobster used to be one of my favorite restaurants, I used to go with my grandma at least once a month when I was younger. Sadly red lobster just isn’t what they used to be.
Came here for the first time in over 2 years and I can honestly say it will probably be another 2 years till I go back.
Our server was awkward. He wasn’t very personable more like he was bored with his job, my boyfriend and I tried to joke around with him but he wasn’t interested lol whatever.
I am convinced they put ZERO alcohol in their drinks to get you to buy more, I had the Piña colada and it was all sugar.
My admirals feast was so greasy, after 3 bites I had to stop eating because my stomach couldn’t handle it.
My boyfriend loved his lobster bake (which is why they get 2 stars instead of one)
Also right after we sat down an employee dropped a bunch of trash right next to me and no one came to clean it up. The floor in the dining room we were sitting in had trash all over it as well along with the 3 dirty tables that were never cleaned the entire time we were there.
I have pictures of the dining room but my phone won’t let me post them :/

Very friendly service. Temperature was nice – not to cold inside! And thank you for using recyclable take out containers! Had a lovely evening with friends here.

Server was good, but Our food and drinks were #HORRIBLE none of my food was cooked thoroughly. Maybe it will taste better tomorrow after I cook it some more. Decided to come to this location because it was closer to my house. But I’ll drive to Oracle Rd before I come back here.

I love this place! The lobster is so good. I grew up eating lobster. So I’m a huge lobster lover! Service is always good when we come most of the time and the food is great. The complimentary cheddar bay biscuits are so yummy! They have a roasted lobster maine bake that comes with nothing but lobster tails and a side. It is delicious! All the food is great and fresh! #RedLobsterLover

I won’t be back here ever this place had horrible customer service and the food is getting so cheap. I waited forever for biscuits and I had to ask a manager to get some for me because my waitress never came back. We never got refills! We couldn’t get out of here fast enough after complaining nobody came back to give us the bill it’s was the 2^nd worst experience at a Red Lobster I had.

Came here for my friend’s birthday. The waiter Andy, started off ok, but by the time he brought out our meals he sucked!
First off, it was a group of 4 of us. One of my friends ordered the Salmon with asparagus & broccoli as sides (cuz she is on a no carb diet). When he brought it to her, instead of broccoli there were mashed potatos! She says I thought it was suppose to have broccoli? His only response was, «oh we’re out of broccoli»! Doesn’t offer a substitute or anything! Just continues dropping off our meals!
Then, after all was said and done, we told him it was my friends birthday. Now, i could have sworn tht a while ago they would give the birthday person a free small dessert, but not anymore! They just sing to u & that’s it! Well, it even took him a long time to round up some «singers» when they were just singing at the table in front of us!!! Personally I think he forgot about that too!
Next, the bills were dropped off & he asks if we would like anything else. My friend says yes we would like some bisquits to go please & a box. He says ok, but he totally forgot, which he freely admitted to! Lastly, the restaurant was sooo uncomfortably hot in there like they cranked up the heater but thankfully it was towards the end so i didn’t bother saying anything. Just know, that if I’m saying this now that other people were probably thinkin it too!
Anyway, with all that being said, we will probably not be going back for a while! Maybe i’ll just Go Eat At Joe’s instead if I get a seafood craving again! This place has gone downhill in every way! Which sucks cuz it used to be one of my favorite places! :(

Ok… we were there for lunch before the door opened. There was a couple, a family of six and a group five and the three of us who walked in as the door opened… quickly seated and our drinks promptly brought to us.
We ordered the stuffed mushrooms for an appetizer, good, BUT six ½ inch or smaller mushrooms for $ 10??? Our order was first set on someone else’s table… they told him, the waiter, «this is theirs,» and pointed our way. From there well, our waiter didn’t seem very attentive, he didn’t seem busy.
But I will say my Family had a good ol’ time chowin ’ down on a bit of shrimp, crab, and lobster with the fixens. Good eats!!!

Let’s start with the positives:
1. Waitress provided over the top service. She cracked my grandpa’s crab shells for him. What a sweet gesture. (And yes, she put on gloves.)
2. Cheddar bay biscuits are always phenomenal (but I should warn you they don’t reheat well at home, so don’t bother taking them home.)
Here are the negatives:
1. The food is bland. It has no seasoning on it at all. It’s as if they put all the effort into the cheddar bay biscuits and then just give up after that.
2. Yeah that’s about it.

I don’t know what all the whining reviews are about! Technology has evolved enough to ensure everyone knows the deal with Red Lobster.
Is it seafood? Technically, yes. Is it the tastiest or freshest or most well prepared seafood? Hell no! It’s freakin’ RED LOBSTER, people! Did you mistakenly wander in here on your way to some other fancier fishery? Of course not! You know why you’re here.
This is where Uhmurricans come for a belly busting amount of mediocre sea-​funk. And don’t stop bringing out those biscuits until I have a greasy film coating the entirety of my mouth. It’ll help distract me from the slightly different greasy trail the Admiral’s Feast will leave behind.
Sure, throw in an iceberg salad and maybe a steamed veg that I’ll roll around my plate as I gorge myself on endless shrimp. I’ll feel better with a green thing riding shotgun on my trough-​plate while my warped internal dialogue argues that seafood is a healthier meal choice. Attaboy!
Make my funk the sea-​funk! I wants to get funked up!

Ordered the lobster tacos. That was my mistake. They always seem to put the worst parts of an shellfish into a dish. It’s like, if I had seen what I was eating, I wouldn’t have eaten half of it! For $ 11.49 I expect some nice pieces of lobster. Then the rice pilaf looked like someone had left it sitting in the oven on warm overnight. It’s hit and miss at this restaurant and this lunch was a definite miss!

My wife and I like seafood occasionally and there just isn’t much in Tucson other than red lobster and joes so we decided to go here.
Waitress was ok but overworked. Too many tables for her. We ordered a lobster bake and a seafood platter that comes with shrimp, lobster tail and snow crab. The crab legs were like pencils and impossible to crack. They need zipper knives for this task and don’t have them.
I had to ask for silverware since there was only one set, I didn’t notice until the waitress couldn’t be found. Took a while but finally got a set.
The dinners were ok, but I did notice the price increases. Salads are not artfully done just lettuce in a bowl. The water served tasted so bad even with lemon in it it couldn’t be drank.
For $ 75 I think the dinners should be a little better than what we got. There just isn’t any pride in display or content sometimes.
Sorry if I rambled on sporadically. I’ll do better next time.

So disappointed in lunch today. The employees were all complaining about 50 people coming, which I would think would be a good thing. Then, we ordered the calamari, which half of it was just the crunchy coating and the broccoli had raw coating in the inside. The blue cheese dressing had no flavor. The buser spilled a drink down my side. The fried shrimp was old, the shrimp scampi I’m pretty sure was precooked and then reheated because they were rubbery and my white fish had no flavor (paprika is more for decoration). Needless to say, won’t be back.

Red Lobster is always a good place to eat. Staff is friendly and polite. Service is good and food is always great!

Welcome to America’s feedbag (seaside version). Do you like to eat your food with a shovel? Does it go down easier if you grease it first? Do you think that menu items over $ 20 automatically make a restaurant «fancy»?
I wanted some crab legs and didn’t feel like cooking and we hadn’t been here in a long time and hubby wanted to go someplace easy. The menu has changed in subtle ways, but it’s basically the same dark, loud place where you can order entrees that cost more than they should and alcoholic drinks that taste like sugar. Service is very fast and very friendly. The people here are great. It’s just the food that’s suspect. Even the biscuits, which I always remember as being pretty taste, were bland and heavy in the mouth.
We started with calamari. I’ve addressed this issue before: why does my husband insist on ordering calamari when 95% of the time it’s not done correctly? Typically people overcook their squid so it turns rubbery, but in a refreshing twist, this squid was actually tender and soft, while the breading was greasy and undercooked. Bleh. Possibly due to the cost of squid, this dish is now over 50% vegetables: broccoli and red peppers.
I ordered a Caesar salad: the lettuce was fresh and the dressing was decent. I cannot comment on the quality of parmesan cheese because they neglected to put any cheese on this salad.
My crab legs were OK but full of disgusting lukewarm water that ran out of the shell all over my arms and the rest of the food, like they were boiled rather than steamed. The drawn butter tastes like vegetable oil and this dish no longer comes with lemons. I had to ask for them separately and remind the waiter that I had asked for them after they didn’t appear several minutes later. The sweet corn was very sweet. There were a couple tiny potatoes in the dish. I guess this is another money-​saving device, because we’re talking about an amount of potato equivalent to about ¼ of the baked potatoes they used to serve.
Hubby chose the make-​your-​own feast. I tried the heavily over-​salted and very greasy pasta. The fish looked standard, perhaps a bit dry. He ate all the fried shrimp, which also looked pretty standard.
Once again, I am reminded why I avoid chain restaurants. For basically the same price we could have eaten a non-​disgusting meal made from fresh ingredients at Kingfisher.

Went with 4 friends. Hadn’t been there in awhile but was glad I went back. Although it is a chain restaurant, they still have pretty good food. I love seafood and had the tilapia-​parmesan crusted. It was pretty good. The prices varied depending on what you order but ranged from about $ 15 to $ 35.00. I have always loved the cheese biscuits that come with every meal. They list the fish that is local and fresh which is helpful. I’ve always had a decent meal at a Red Lobster and was not disappointed this time.

This is a must restaraunt. The service is good and the food is just as good! I love this place. Much better than stinky old Applebee’s. HEHEHE

We went to this Red Lobster last night with my wife as we do at least 2 – 3 per month. We absolutely LUV the food and last night was no exception. Our server was awesome very friendly and prompt.
My only complaint about this visit was that we we seated in the back by the restroom in an area where the employees congregate for their breaks. The problem came about when we had to sit there and listen to the employees discuss very inappropriate topics and useing foul language. It made an otherwise stellar experience less so.
This episode will most deffinatly NOT! keep us from returning … Hope this Helps :)

We went to Red Lobster last night and man what a difference. We had such a horrible experience before that we didn’t go back for almost 2 years.
My girlfriend Jaime wanted the lobster fest and I had a steak. Everything tasted great and the service was awesome.
If you are going to the Broadway location, ask for Roy.
It’s still pricy, so expect that but much better than before.
A side tip, if you sign up for the Fresh Catch Club, you will receive an email for a free appetizer or dessert you can you that night.
Hope that helps.

We ate the endless shrimp choices today.
Every dish was outstanding. The service was wonderful. The marguerite was very large and oh so good.
The restaurant was very clean.
We will be back for dinner even though we live in Sierra Vista.
Definitely worth the drive.

Red lobster is one of my favorite places to go to because of their ultimate feast and endless shrimp. This place is your typical chain seafood restaurant and definitely not like Kingfisher.
The biscuits here are always pretty good, although, it seems like maybe they don’t use the same amount of cheese as they have in the past. My food arrived hot. Everything was delicious, except my green beans were overdone. The strawberry tea I ordered, didn’t really taste like tea, just syrup with the addition of a fresh strawberry.
The ultimate feast comes with all the seafood items you more or less want… crab legs, garlic shrimp, and lobster tail. Don’t forget the side along with the mini salad.
I didn’t give them 4 stars because it was a little off putting to have so many flies in the restaurant especially when I’m spending so much money.
