Red Lobster

"If you’re going to go out and drop $100 on a meal, you better play it safe and go to the veteran restaurants where they are consistently good. Nowadays, it’s just hard to go out, because portions are small and artistically made, so you think you’re getting some thing really well prepared. Skip the fancy and go with the tried and true. Red lobster never disappoints. Our meal was fantastic as always. And five stars for Carrie who made sure my birthday friend got a piece of cake. She went out of her way to make him one of the best drinks I’ve ever tasted. I needed this to be a flawless night and it was. Thanks for squeezing us in with a reservation Ashley! You guys are the best."

"The lobsters tails feel undercooked, as I'm about to eat my second one. I asked our server about it, and she went back and forth with the chef and said it's at the edge, but just in case they will give me another one. The server is friendly, and besides the lobster, other foods we ordered were amazing. The Mac& Cheese was so delicious. I've been to Red Lobster many times, and normally, we visit the other location at Gresham."

"Food was perfect. They were busy but quick. Had one issue but they went way beyond to fix it. Very attentive staff. Adia was great! Left with a full belly and much appreciation. Thanks for a great New Year’s Eve experience!"

"Be prepared for a long wait. Power went out at my home. So we went looking for food and internet. Arrived around 5:30 on a weeknight. We were told it would be a 25 minute wait. That seemed surprising since half the tables were empty, but okay. Actual wait time...55 minutes. We were just leaving when they finally called us. Serious staff shortages, I guess. Once seated, the person who waited on us was excellent. There were two people who walked back and forth several times, not talking to anyone. I am not sure what they were about, And the food was really good other than the Brussels. They had a sauce that made them too sweet. The lobster was cooked to perfection, and the dungeonous crab was a real treat. I am not sure why they are operating with half the restaurant, but they lost a lot of business while we were there from people who found the wait unacceptable. I would not have waited, except I had nothing better to do due to my power outage."

"It was about 25 minutes to get seated, and it took an additional 60 minutes to get our food. The server was very friendly when he was at the table, but he was rarely at the table. He would buzz by, promise to bring things, and then not come back until much later and had forgotten. They were out of many appetizers and entrées, which somewhat limited choices. The shrimp dishes were all flavorful and cooked to perfection. The Snow Crab was overcooked, causing the shell to be soft, which made it more difficult to free the meat from. It did taste good, but no butter to dip in was brought. The biscuits were fresh, warm, and delicious, but also devoid of butter. This is one of the very few bread items that I actually eat. The lobster was cooked well and did come with butter to dip in. Both the loaded baked potato and the lobster topped baked potato were delicious as well. The rice was pretty bland, but the broccoli was cooked to perfection. All in all, it was a good experience, albeit long and limited in selection."
