Went on a Sunday night. It looked busy but not super busy. We had to wait about 15 minutes to get a seat. When we went back to the dinning room there were a bunch of empty tables some even with dirty dishes piled up on them. Seemed to understaffed but things were moving along. Our waiter took our drink orders for our party of three adults and two 17 month olds and we waited about 15 minutes for them to come out. Then our order was taken and we were even told come one couldn't substitute a side for soup, which the waiter later told the lady at the table next to us you could for a charge. We waited another 15-20 minutes for our salads, which two contained numerous pieces of soggy brown romain but we never said anything. The two soft drinks we ordered were bad and asked for new ones which took another 10 minutes. After our salads were done and our plates taken we were told our meal was completely my soon and another 20 min passed. Before they came out and about had it we spoke with a manager. Who didn't really do anything. Our food came warm like been sitting there a while. We asked for an extra plate and more biscuits that never came. We were NEVER asked or given refills on our drinks. The manager finally came and checked on us and after learning our experience offered to pay for our meal, which was very generous of her and we were hesitant to do because we of course had eaten it. Our waiter, after learning our meal was taken care of ignored us the rest of our time there. Straining to keep his back to us the rest of the time. Very disappointed. It will be a lot my time before we ever go back.

My first visit to Red Lobster at this location. It was packed on a Saturday night with only a few open parking spots. We had a short wait in the lobby, given a pager to know when our table was ready. 3 of us all had the Endless Shrimp for $15.99 each with drinks (coke/tea) for $2.49 each, our bill was $60.85 with Tax. Each of the different kinds of shrimp were all great. Our server was nice and friendly, there was a wait between refills but as I said the place was packed to capacity. 2 out of the 3 of us ended up with upset stomachs by the time we got home. I'm not going to blame it on Red Lobster, I think the food might have been a little too rich and we just ate too much. I wouldn't hesitate to go back and would recommend to others.

It is what it is - a Red Lobster - but it is a very good one. Friendly wait staff and above average food quality for a Red Lobster.

I avoid chain restaurant simply because the process is streamlined to maximize efficiency and profit. I feel the culinary art gets short changed to maintain consistency. That said I had a long travel and work day and decided to give the Oak Ridge Red Lobster a try. The place is clean and has a very well kept appearance. The staff were all attentive and focused. Lots of dining area however the booths are slightly cramped and the tables are bolted to the floor. The menus is clear and has a wide spread of price points however expect a minim of $20+ entrees. The biscuits they bring to the table are crazy good so try not to gobble down all 4 because they will bring more. You have been warned. I had a lobster scampi dish that was very good. Lots of lobster meat but all claws and knuckles don't expect tail meat in this dish yet it isn't missed. I highly recommend Red Lobster but for my taste I'll keep the visits to a minimum.

Food was excellent! Wife's Skinny Margarita very weak. Staff extremely friendly! Small issue with the bill, but was resolved. Highly recommend and will definitely return!

This is a very good Red Lobster! I get the Cajun Chicken Pasta everytime I come & it is always delicious! And of course the garlic cheese biscuits are delicious as well!

Friendly service and decent food. I got the Salmon New Orleans which had a really tasty sauce. I was hoping for a bigger piece of fish, but I wasn't completely displeased. Prices were fine, and the cheddar biscuits were regularly refilled.
