The salad was wilted and the lobster a little overdone but I still enjoyed it. Always enjoy coming here. This is my 3rd time. The server is nice as always.

I have always wanted to come here and when I finally did, I was 100% let-down. Our waiter was very lively, but pushy and made very poor recommendations. I asked him about the lobster bisque, which he replied that some would say it was better than Ruth's Chris. He asked me if I wanted to taste it, which I interpreted would be a small sample to determine if I wanted to order a cup/bowl. Unfortunately, that was not the case, he brought over a cup of soup immediately without confirming that I wanted to order it. So, I was out $6 within minutes of sitting down. The lobster bisque was probably the worst I've ever tasted. Texturally, it was goopy and the taste was sour. It was also cheese orange-colored. Not very appetizing.. Then, our waiter recommended we try the stuffed mushrooms as an appetizer. We said we were mulling over getting the lobster spinach dip instead. Before we knew it, he left to put in that order without, again, confirming it with us. Luckily though, the dip was very good. But I was extremely annoyed that he would put in orders without our final say. My partner had the shrimp, lobster, and salmon entree special while I opted for the stuffed mushrooms. The salmon was the worst-tasting piece of fish I have ever had. I had to spit that out in my napkin. The shrimp was overcooked and bland. The lobster was adequate. My stuffed mushrooms were delicious but I noticed the mushroom caps were half-sized. They were pretending I received 6 stuffed mushroom caps, but I received 6 halves of stuffed mushroom caps - essentially half the order I was supposed to receive. After complaining, we were comped for the shrimp/lobster/salmon entree. But we should have been comped for the entire meal minus the dip. I will never come here again and I highly recommend you obtain seafood elsewhere.

I gave this Red Lobster 5 stars because I have eaten here twice in the past 4 weeks and it was very good both times. I think the over-all rating should be higher. We both got the lobster fest both times (we had a coupon). The service and food were both great. Exactly what we expected - very friendly and fast service. The restaurant was clean and we will be going back the next time we're in BR.

I'll break this down into two parts for review: the food from a national chain restaurant perspective, and the local flare. I know that large chains like Red Lobster require the local restaurants to buy the main products like shrimp and fish from them...nothing is local (which is a shame here in the gulf area), so needless to say, the shrimp, while flavored very well, were some of the tinyiest I've ever seen. My wife and I both had shrimp scampi and the shrimp were smaller than my pinky finger. It took three to make a good bite. I will admit, it was flavored very well. I had a platter with multiple types of shimp dishes on it. One of the other dishes was the shrimp alfredo with linguini. Again...very good flavor, but the shrimp were tiny and not a lot of them. My son had a steak (yeah, not usually smart at a seafood place) and as expected, the quality of the steak was poor...full of gristle and quite tough. I know the local restaurant isn't responsible for the quality they can get from the parent company, so I don't blame them, but overall, Red Lobster should be ashamed. The local parts of the restaurant were pretty good. Our server, John, was fantastic. Our glasses never got below half empty, and he kept the garlic cheese biscuits coming because the kitchen was running very slowly. Salads were brought quickly and he was passing by quite frequently to check on us and promptly removing any empty dishes. He was really good and I'll ask for him if we return. It was a Saturday night and the local team was playing football...just a note to management....have the local SEC team on the TV in the bar. Locals want to root for the home team. May expalin why the bar was half empty. The restaurant is decorated well but could have used a little sweeping in the main hallways from the daily traffic. The two people at the desk could have been taking care of things like that. If the food quality was better we would be returning a lot more often, and again, I understand that isn't the local management's problem. We really do like the flavors of the dishes they serve...especially the specials.

Food was okay, nothing special but really salty though. People complained about the service but when we were there, service was on top of everything.

We were the first people seated at 11am. At 11:20 we left because no one had been to our table. I tried this location when they first opened and the service was terrible, decided to try it again and no improvement. That will be my last time there.

We went on a weekday night and were seared immediately. The staff were polite and the restaurant was clean. That's all the good stuff. The food was underwhelming to the point that we were disappointed that the portions were so large. My advice is to skip this place and find a local seafood place.

I can't imagine why they have gotten so many bad reviews and such a low rating. The food was hot and exceptionally tasty. The portions were perfect. The service was great and IBC root beer is awesome and it's caffeine free. I would have given 5 stars but the broccoli was a little tough. I will be eating here again.

Dena B.
The food was awesome and our service was awesome. Don't sit in the bar area because the bar tender had to work the bar, Answer the phone to take the takeout orders, and serve the guest who sit in the bar area. This is too much for one person. He handled it like a champ. He was slow at times but not because of effort... He was truly wearing many hats to serve people. I blame management, not him. His name is McKinley... Meanwhile, you have 3 hostesses and only one actually looks up and says anything. When we left, none of them said a word. Why not have one of them help McKinley ? I stopped going to red lobster a while ago because the food wasn't all that great. It has improved. I will come back again but warning.... Next time I will ask to speak to a manger on the hostesses. They are the first people you meet at an establishment so they should be more welcoming. They weren't rude but they just didn't give a damn who walked in the door.

Very disappointing service and food quality. Server we had was very abrasive and made fun at my spouse for not 'properly' cracking the overcooked snow crab legs that were a part of our entree. I would expect a chain restaurant like this to step up their game to retain patrons in this part of Louisiana. Wish we had gone to Don's Seafood in Denham for our celebration. Just was craving those cheddar biscuits which (I must give credit where credit is due), were properly cooked and very delicious.
Being from Louisiana I find this to be the bottom of the barrel as far as good places to eat seafood.. The biscuits are great though.. Luckily I can buy them myself at Sam's club.

The food was excellent. I enjoyed my time there. The atmosphere was great!!! I enjoyed the time I spent there with my family. I've been there many times but this was by far the best experience I've had there. The server was nice and very attentive. He made the experience even more enjoyable. I'd go back there soon.

Food overall was pretty ok. Order the sweet chili shrimp with lettuce, very delicious. Once we ordered it took food 45 minutes to arrive an the restaurant was not even packed.

Not a bad experience and the food was actually good this time. Shrimp Trio and Shrimp Your Way.
Well, it's been awhile since they re-opened this restaurant in Baton Rouge and I have eaten here three times, dine-in. All 3 times have been horrible food. The lovely shrimp they show on their TV commercials look great until you realize how closeup the camera is on them. Pay attention next time you see their commercial on TV. They are showing the actual shrimp they use, which CAN'T BE Louisiana shrimp! They're so small it isn't even funny! I have medium sized hands for a woman and the shrimp are no bigger than my PINKY! Unbelievable and how embarrassing for them! The only good thing that comes from this restaurant is the cheese biscuits..that are a free appetizer with free refills on them. I've had scallops which were rubbery and sandy. I've had shrimp which were rubbery and very small. I've had fried crawfish tails which were nothing like any fried crawfish tails I've ever eaten! The batter on them was slightly sweet and bland. No seasonings, and it tasted pastey. With them you get a choice of fries, baked potato, or dirty rice. I ordered the baked potato loaded. I GOT the fried crawfish tails with ALL 3 sides!! My baked potato was not loaded. It had sour cream and butter on it. That's it. I've had the gumbo which was thick like stew (that's not gumbo consistency) and it didn't have the taste of gumbo at all. I've also ordered the Lobster Bisque, which was decent. My dinner companion ordered the grilled chicken pasta and it was in a POOL of grease (see picture). So nasty to serve food like that! I just can't seem to get a decent plate of food from this restaurant!! I won't be returning unless nothing else is open and it's my last pick for food, which will never happen because there are 24 hr. restaurants that serve better food than this. Honestly, the food quality is the pits. I still foresee them closing soon. Now, each time I drive by, I notice fewer and fewer cars in their lot. It's not doing well, and it's apparent this is another fail for Red Lobster. What's sad is they have a great menu for a seafood restaurant, but just don't have the employees to execute it. That's a sure fire way to close a restaurant. I've added new pics of what I recently had.

I hate to write bad reviews, but i have to say something. Came here hoping things would be ok because the restaurant wouldn't be busy on superbowl Sunday. WRONG. Don't know if they were understaffed because people called in, but the assistant manager is clearing tables and bringing out food. Its NOT BUSY!!!!!! i would hate to be here when its full........15 minutes to be seated=great......15 minutes before we got WATER= NOT GREAT. Took our order. (This is the only bright spot in the whole review: an off duty employee took our food and drink order.....i wish i could have given him the TIP!!!)..another 15 minutes to get salads and appetizers. Finally get to meet my waitress.....she was sweet, but it was too late. Assistant manager came and got me a drink refill, he was awesome, and a lil upset. Over all it took me an hour and a half to eat on a casually busy Sunday. Not because i was enjoying myself, but because i couldn't get service. Love to see "new" stuff in Baton Rouge.....but if they cant keep up on an easy day, i won't even think about coming when its busy.

Amanda H.
TERRIBLE! First, we waited 2.5hrs to get a seat. They ran out if pagers so we had to fight to get one. Finally, after we were seated next to the bar on uncomfortable seats, we ordered. An order of crabs that someone in our party ordered were not edible due to overcooking and they ended up forgetting side items for everyone and only brought them out after we were finished eating. One person in our party received her order after everyone had finished eating and we were told they would take it off the bill but when we asked for the check the waitress told us she would need to ask the manager. After waiting for her to arrive back w our check it took so long and by then we had been there for 4hrs so we left without paying. Worst service I've ever experienced. I do not recommend. Not only was there a horrible wait but the food was gross and the staff unreliable. We shall not be returning, ever.

Trevor R.
Pretty bad deal here. They are generally pretty busy so it's understandable that you don't receive the best service, but they are pretty awful. Not to mention that their seafood is weak relative to the available cuisine in Baton Rouge. When I lived in Arizona, Red Lobster was considered good seafood but in the south, it's pretty weak stuff. We went the other day just to try something new and because it was close but regretted it after an unsatisfying meal and a server that had 0 time to take care of us.

Everyone gives bad reviews, this place was amazing, our server, Ann, was excellent!! The food was amazing, such a great atmosphere. It was a very pleasant experience in a personal, intimate setting. The perfect place to celebrate our six month-iversery!! We drove from Lafayette just to eat here and we are so happy we fought the horrible Baton Rouge traffic, and will do so again!

Bottom line - the service is absolutely horrific, perhaps due to just opening. I am not even going to start on our evening. We had a party of 6 and we stayed there over 3 hours. However, I found my trio of clam, stuffed mushrooms and bacon-wrapped scallops appetizer to be awesome. I was supprized how good the food was. I know they have been in Baton Rouge twice over the last 20 or so years. Maybe this time they will finally get it right. Our waitress was actually very sweet, but everything seems not to be managed very well. Way too many employees standing around doing nothing and all the while the orders are goign to the wrong tables and nobody gets their food on time. Some food was overcooked as well. I will be going back and hopefully the service will be better.

Guys, I'll give yall the long and short of it: I havent eaten at red lobster since I lived in new orleans. Thats a long time now, but the point I have is still going to stand: if you're reading this, you're in louisiana. That means you've got about a thousand other choices for seafood restaurants, at least some of which should serve nice fresh gulf seafood. The last time I ate at red lobster, it was very obviously frozen seafood. It's not the worst place in the world, but definitely not the best. If you're thinking about eating here, I highly suggest you reconsider and go to a good louisiana seafood restaurant. My best recommendation would be mike anderson's if you're in baton rouge, but theres plenty to choose from. If you want fairly bland, kinda rubbery seafood... please feel free to enjoy red lobster.

Still nasty went today and had the Lobster Nachos. The lobster was tough. The cheese was not good. As I looked at the menu all that frozen prefab food looked yuck. I settled on the fried clams. Anything Red Lobster is a no go!

Folks, it's RED LOBSTER!!! Judging it by that standard, it's not bad. The cheese buscuits are a winner, and they're free! Our waiter, A.T., was one of the better ones we've had anywhere. He had a great personality, was not intrusive, and nailed the service. The restaurant seemed to be running smoothly overall, which is noteworthy considering how new it is. As for the food, it's RED LOBSTER!!!, i.e. the food is not going to be, what's the word...tasty. But it is passable.

My server was pleasant but the food was terrible. And it took a long time for my first drink to be served and a very long time for the entrée to get to the table. When it did the tiny lobster portion was still icy cold. You could almost taste that icy flavor like when you get a cube from the freezer to eat. No lobster taste. At least they got the Cesar salad right and the garlic cheese biscuits were very good but I really could have had better food staying at home. Won't go back to the Baton Rouge location ever again. To top off the bad food the cost averaged just over $40 a person & that didn't include alcohol. Disappointed.
