I want to give a HUGE thank you and kudos to my waitress Benita who is AMAZING and is the reason I keep going back every single time! Great overall experiences along with decent prices for this town.

With its recent remodel, the Farmington Red Lobster is looking pretty snazzy... but service can be kind of hit or miss. We recently went for Crab-Fest and only had a few complaints, mostly when it came to our server. I realize that folks can be having a bad day, but surly and slow service does affect the overall enjoyment of one's meal. Drinks were slow in coming, several neighbors got their meals and appetizers ahead of us, and no bread refill (though, that one is probably for the best, considering my diet. :P). I guess I was just very put off by our waiter's lack of friendliness. I mean, we tried to be gracious guests, so I don't know what made him gruff and slow, but who knows? Food-wise, we all seemed fairly content. While my crunch-fried fish sandwich was decent, I wasn't wowed either, and had to do without ranch for my fries (due to server brusqueness). The lobster pizza appetizer that we shared was pretty tasty, though, and... as ever... the cheddar bay biscuits are the quickest way to my heart. Atmosphere-wise, we went during lunch hours on a Friday afternoon. School has not started up yet, so there were plenty of kiddos with their Moms, which led to some noisy annoyances (omg, kiddo, please stop blowing that whistle), but there was enough of a comfort zone between tables thanks to strategic spacing by the hostess that we weren't in danger of any hearing loss. :) I will say, I very much enjoyed the small river view we had. It would be nice if they could replace that little strip of driveway with a deck for open air seating, but such is life. Pricing was about where I expected. Not super-cheap, but not emptying my wallet, either. True, this was from the lunch menu with smaller portions, but it felt about right for a meal, drink, and appetizer to share. Overall, our town's Red Lobster is a decent mass-market sit down restaurant with a fair price point and a fair menu... sure, there are some service issues, but it could have been much worse. If you're in the mood for fish and pasta (and delicious bread), you'll do alright.

I usually have a great time here, the wait is usually short and the service is usually pretty good to. I can almost find something to eat for whatever mood I'm in. Currently they are remodeling but they're still able to keep up with great service. Our server, Becca, was awesome. She kept up with our table and she had a great attitude. Food was good, it was a last minute choice but they didn't disappoint.

Seriously over frequented. This place needs a health inspection. The filthiest kitchen I have ever seen. Nobody needs shrimp that badly. Don't eat here.

They must really like their lobster in Farmington, NM the parking lot was full both times I was here. They share the parking lot with Serious Texas BBQ but it didn't seem like anyone was there. Surprisingly this location seems larger than the Red Lobster I've been to in Vegas. As always you are greeted by a tank full of lobsters saying please don't eat me please don't eat me. Sorry guys please pass the lobster. Took a peak at the bar area, seemed like a full bar to me with a few flat screens. There was an NBA game going so I was there a bit. Really liked the Malibu Hurricane drink and the Cheddar Bay Biscuits. The Maple-Glazed Salmon and Shrimp was pretty good but not as good as the Ultimate Feast (lobster, crab legs, and shrimp). No room for dessert but if I did the Chocolate Wave was calling me both nights. One of the night it looked like one of the parties just devoured their food, crab legs and lobster shells were all over the table and ground, a big mess. Luckily the girl cleaning up did a good job, didn't even notice there was a mess after we were finished, except for ours. Good service.

i was amazed on all fronts! we dined on a monday night. there was no wait. eddie was our server. the biscuits were good. our drinks arrived very fast. as we ordered our server did an awesome job answering our questions. and the ones he didn't he asked the manager. we ordered the 4 entrees for $16. it was pretty good considering the cost. i've had way better seafood for 3 times the cost. but the food and price were good. what made the experience a 5 star was the service by the manager and our server. it was amazing to be treated with respect and common courtesy. not sure if we had great service because it was slow for a monday night. but i'll take it!

The best customer service I have had in a long time. I thought customer service was dead, but at this Red Lobster, the manager, cooks and wait staff are the best I have seen in years. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants a great dining experience.
