Review from Martha-Victoria D.

I went here with a hankering for King crab legs and didn't want to expect much and be disappointed since I am generally an "I-hate-Applebee's-and-chains" kind of snob. I was VERY pleasantly surprised. The service was super-attentive, the oysters were fresh and HUGE, the crab legs were steamed perfectly... The man had steak and lobster tail which also looked very good and according to him, cooked to his liking. If I had a complaint, it would be that i wanted my salad a little fancier. I would love a wedge with heirloom tomatoes and some fresh blue cheese on it or something...maybe some real applewood bacon...all i got was a lotta ranch dressing on s lotta lettuce, the Hidden Valley Ranch kind your parents served at home. But hey-it's not Shaw's, it's Red Lobster. The other issue is that they had a smoking section (GROSS!...trashy trashy)...but i guess that is Indiana's fault, not the Red Lobster's for still allowing it. However, I'd go back.

There is a reason I do everything in my power to avoid stupid chain restaurants like Red Lobster. Let's start with service...
--Was told to expect a 10-15 min wait. 45 min later we had to remind the hostess that we were still waiting and were seated shortly afterward. Oh, and it was a Tuesday
--Server was aloof and somewhat rude. She'd ignore our table for 20 min and then come back with 3 baskets of lukewarm biscuits and 2 cherry cokes for me so she wouldn't have to worry about refills. I mean, Red Lobster does make a mean, 1000 calorie cheddar biscuit, but I don't want 10 of them cluttering the table and begging me to let them clog my arteries.
Speaking of food....
Granted, the biscuits are delicious...but, the food is just boring, if you ask me. I ordered some Tuesday shrimp special which resulted in some very "un"special fried shrimp.
Eh, I think next time I'll save 2 hours and $20 and head to Long John Silvers for my fried seafood fix.... -

Unpleasantly surprised,
I visited this establishment for the second or third time and I haven't been impressed neither time I have been here. Upon entrance on a Tuesday at noon we had to wait for a table or booth for 20 minutes although there were some visibly available to us. After being seated, the waiter rushed us through the menu and was not very attentive to what we were ordering. The wait for the meal was acceptable and the best part was the food. I had the crab Alfredo it was a good serving size (full) a good temperature and it came with plenty of Alfredo sauce on it. Red Lobster is fairly easy to find the parking lot is adequate. -

what a disappointment. I haven't been to been to a red lobster in quite some time. the menu offered up lots of options, which in hindsight were all the same plus or minus pasta. the cheesy biscuits still hold up and the side salad was wimpy. our entrees were overpriced for what was offered. my GF ordered a 1/2 order of lobster/shrimp pasta, she received the full order, when we questioned are slightly obnoxious & over the top waiter, he responded with, "i must have not heard you correctly and said sorry". that's GREAT!!! but he also refused to adjust the final bill accordingly. that's NOT GREAT. what happened to THE CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT? it was not worth our time to get a manager involved and my GF now had lunch for the next day. red lobster is owned by the same outfit that owns olive garden and it shows. it's a shame that we region rats are offered up such bland tasteless dining options and honestly the ambiance was depressing to me. i recommend taking your cash elsewhere.

Red Lobster gets pretty busy, and you just may go there on a busy day and have to wait a little bit, but like alot of busy restaurants, it's busy for a reason.. it's good(if you like seafood that is). If you don't like seafood you may be less impressed with the place, but there are some pasta dishes and I'm sure one ortwo other nonseafood items. Of course most people go to Red Lobster because they are seafood fans, and it's a good place for that. Their shrimp is delicious, and I'm not sure if they still have it, but they had a special going on where you get all these different styles of shrimp at a very affordable price. That was pretty cool. I've always found the wait staff friendly here.
