It's been a long time on the road today and this was a welcome stop. I had eaten here before in the winter and it wasn't very busy back then. Today it was also not that busy but that made the service very good they were very quick in bringing out drinks, appetizers and dinner. The food was very good. I had the crispy shrimp lettuce wraps which were new to the menu. The side Caesar salad was good but I could tell that it was a bit rushed in preparation. Drinks were refilled often and even though I didn't want them they brought out their famous cheddar bay biscuits. Overall it was what I would expect from a chain restaurant.

A fantastic place to eat. Went there with my husband even after reading the reviews. We had a gift card and wanted to to use it. Our waiter was Steve. U have to request him. He was fantastic!!! Our food was brought out in a timely manner and it was hot. We both had the shrimp... Yum!!! My husband and I could not finish it! We were looking for Steve to let him no they we were taking our food home when he appeared at our table side with a box, extra biscuits and extra sauces. I was impressed. The food was great and our waiter was was fantastic. Remember to ask for Steve if u go and go u should.

Our waitress was very nice and attentive. I've had bad experiences with Red Lobster in the past but since my grandmother wanted to come here for her birthday I was left without options. Needless to say, the service was great and the food was delicious. I was satisfied with every aspect of our meal. Took a star away for crab legs that were kind of dry. Will not hesitate to go to Red Lobster as long as it is at this location!

This place is the worst in the state. My boyfriend and I had a date night and wanted red lobster. We arrived, it was not really busy, we stood at the hostess counter for 10 minutes with no greeting, and 3-5 employees walked by with no hello, no interest in sitting us or assisting us. The manager finally came and said have you been helped, we said no, we've been here for 10 minutes. She said oh, called someone on her earpiece and said we have guests, grabbed menus and said we'll seat you shortly. I was already irritated at the disrespect and lack of customer service, we told her we were leaving she said oh ok with an attitude. Unbelievable and disgusting. They need to wipe out the staff and do some serious I house cleaning. They need training and to not leave the front of the store unattended! I won't recommend this location to anyone ever! It's embarrassing.

My wife and my kids 1yr old and 2 yr old have been watching the commericals which got us in the mood to go. This was and will be the last time we go. It took is 20 minutes just to get table and there was at least 10 tables open. We saw mostly elderly customers while dining..well trying to. It took another 20 minutes just to get our order for appetizers and drinks. The service was very long and irritating. The food is ok..but we could had the experience at Mcdonalds. Never asked for refills, checked if food was good, basically didn't care. At the end..they forgot our biscuits which we asked for to go...that too another 20 min. To retrieve. We also saw other customers treated the same way. Im surprised this place is doing any business. The employees are clearly there for a check and not customers. BE WARNED!!

I think Red Lobster is getting worse in food or it is just this location or we ordered the worse food. The chicken and shrimp is loaded with greasy, fatty oil and mushy mashed potatoes. To add to insult, I was disappointed that my partner ordered Admiral Feast, all fried seafood. What can I eat now? The only thing that is my favorite is the good, unlimited cheese biscuits. You mean I have to wait for this crap! Typical of most Red Lobster is the long wait. I guess we went the wrong time, just not enough servers to make us sit and then, we got a server that made us feel rushed.

Red Lobster used to be great when I was a kid, what the heck happened? It's sad when you order fish from a nearby steak place because its better then a restaurant that is supposed to specialize in seafood. Also the consistency of their food prep is horrendous. On one occasion I ordered shrimp tacos which were packed w/ about 6 shrimp per taco. Two weeks later same dish ordered and I had 1 taco w/ 1 shrimp and 2 tacos w/ 2 shrimp each. The restaurant resolved the issue by giving me two grilled shrimp skewers on my next dine in visit instead of giving me a comped meal-obviously I'm not impressed. On a more recent occasion 4 of my coworkers ordered Sailors Platters for lunch take out and each got a different amount and different level of seasoning on the fish. Are the lobsters doing the cooking back there or what?! What good things can I say hmmm, like the shrimp tacos (when properly shrimped), love the cheddar biscuits and they probably have one of the best blue cheese salad dressings around.

The food is OK. I had the flounder and fries. The fries were good but the flounder was not all that great. It just kind of sat there and did nothing for my taste buds. Don't get me wrong is wash't horrable just wasn't real good either. The wait staff seem to be stressed out with a lot of the running all around and not getting a lot done. Our server checked on us 1 time after we were served and we had to hunt her down to get the check. Another thing if you are going to bring kids out to eat please answer them if they have a question. The table next to us had 3 girls and they all wanted their mom yet she just sat there not answering them and talked to her friend.

This is a nice place to eat. Only complaint I have is the waiting area is very small so on a cold day outside you go! I had the pick three and everything was great. We had great service... no complaints!
