Recently had late lunch here while on trip to bham. RL remains a favorite of mine since the first one opened over by Brookwood. All you whiners and complainers are just like 99 percent of people that leave reviews, you feel you got disrespected by a waiter, you didn't get your water glass filled or tea, you generally are people that wake up jerks and you remain a jerk throughout your day and life. Oh, and Most of you don't even know how to use proper grammar. RED Lobster is a great place to eat. Family friendly, you can bring the kids and enjoy fried seafood. It's not Fine Dining and if you want Fine Dining, go to a mega bucks Fine Dining restaurant. I once spent my birthday which was also Mother's Day at a local RL here in San Antonio and the entire time I had a sick baby boy in one arm. Wailing away, even once threw up on me, I did not let it deter me from enjoying the company of my Mom and my birthday. The place was so loud my wailing baby didn't interrupt anyone. Most of you are just nitpicky folk that have nothing better to do than post a horrible review. Hey dimwits, guess what? RL has been around since 1968. They're doing something right, till this day. Wish I could eat there every day. I enjoyed my visit here, my fried shrimp.

The first time I went to this place, it was fairly new, and I had high expectations. After all, how can a place that serves cheesy garlic biscuits be bad? Well, it can. The shrimp dish I ordered was mediocre. What it lacked in flavor, it more than made up in saturation of butter and oil. Biting and chewing that shrimp needed an extra set of canines and molars. That was tough. (Pun intended.) The service was lackluster. It was like they advertised for the most apathetic servers. I guess they don't rely on tips. We couldn't get refills on our drinks without looking like we were drowning in that booth, flailing our arms. It was a waste of time and money. So, because we are gluttons for punishment, we decided to try it again -- this time with the whole family. We were told that we would have to wait for one of the bigger tables to open up to be seated. Mind you, half the place was empty. We asked if we could just sit in one of the empty booths, and we were told "if you really have to" we could. So we bid farewell to Red Lobster and its 84 Health Inspection rating and probably saved ourselves a nasty bout of food poisoning.

This is our second visit. I enjoyed the food and service both times. This is the average Red Lobster. Unfortunately, Red Lobster has gone down over the years. These days, it's just OK.

I wanted to Enjoy an evening out and my daughter recommended Red Lobster. I was in the mood for seafood so I was fine with her choice. My son doesn't really care longboat the food was food so off to Red Lobster we go. We went around 7 pm so I just knew we were in for a great dinner. Not!! We were seated and the waiter seemed as if he wanted to be at work but as the night goes on he proves different. I ordered the shrimp lungini with a red sauce, my daughter ordered a regular shrimp Alfredo and my son ordered the wood fire grilled Burger. Our meals came with salads so we received the smallest salads ever made. I began to move the lettuce around in the bowl and it had brown peices in it. I sent it back. The waiter returned with another small salad with a spoon of salad dressing on it. The main course then comes out, my entree had No shrimp in it! Just noodles and a light red sauce that tasted like ketchup with water in it. My daughters lunguini had some funky tasting White cheese on top and we sent them both back. My sons says His Burger was mediocre at best . Not to mention the waiter didn't give us any refills or cheddar biscuits. I was so disappointed and I will never return. This Red Lobster has been in this location for at least a year or two . It's the worst Red Lobster ever ! Save your time and money!

This is a fairly new location in Trussville and it gets pretty crowded as do most restaurants in Trussville. I usually prefer to go to Red Lobster for the endless shrimp because I love their scampi and whatever they have grilled. But to be honest, I really only wanted to review this so that I could put the Cheddar Garlic Biscuits as part of my list. yummm for those biscuits. The reason it's on my Little Things list: Cheddar Garlic Biscuits

So disappointing! The food was horrible. I don't know what you people think seafood is like but this ain't it. The shrimp had the constancy of rubber.
