Red Lobster 4625 North Sterling Avenue, Peoria, IL 61615

"The service was AWFUL! I made a reservation for 730. Got there at 7:10. I had gone up and asked multiple times if our table was ready. At exactly 8:05 over a half hour from our reserved time we were finally seated but only because I asked the manager this time. By the time we got our food it was 9pm. That includes the appetizer. The manager was a joke. She allowed her employees to stand up front having conversations and laughing hysterically while the lobby had people waiting. That is a MOCK TO ALL OF US WAITING. You could at least pretend to be busy. I watched an employee clearly upset walk out. When the manager went to run after him and got him to come back inside she complained about it to the employees standing around. Very rude to treat your employees that way. And disrespectful to talk about it in front of customers. The waitress her name was Ashley I believe laughed multiple times at forgetting our drinks and food. And that the host didn’t bring our silverware. Jerry Evan’s you should be ashamed of this place. I will no longer be returning to this place and I will make sure to spread the word of how awful it was. I will be writing a letter with printed pictures that I have taken to the ceo of this establishment. I highly recommend everyone to research the address and ceo which they do provide the information via google. Do not waste your time or money. If you have I am sorry you had a bad experience like the rest of us. READ REVIEWS before coming to this place."

"We had a long wait over an hour. Calamari was greasy. I ordered 2 lobster tails. One was rubbery and overcooked the other lobster tail was raw. Not cooked at all. My husband's seafood platter was not fresh tasting and lacked flavor. At these prices we will not return. Our server was very busy but nice."

"We made a reservation for 6:30 and we got seated around 6:45. The table we were placed at had dirty dishes on top and the floor was disgusting with chicken strips, broccoli, and biscuits all under our table. Our hostess just pushed the food back and barely wiped the top of our table. Service was very slow and we rarely got checked on. Tables all around us had dirty dishes the entire time we were seated, and never got cleaned by the time we left (as shown in the picture below). The bathrooms were absolutely atrocious with urine on the ground and sticky floors. All tables around us were seated without silverware, so we all had to ask our waitress to get some. After over an hour of waiting for our food, the proportions seemed so small for the price we were paying. And although the food tasted good, the rating went down because of proportion, price, and not getting what was advertised. For example: I ordered salmon roasted (it gave me the option between grilled and roasted), the salmon I received was grilled and all our waitress had to say was “roasted isn’t even an option. Nobody has ever noticed that.” Overall, our experience was not good and we will not be returning."

"For our party of 2, it was okay. From the moment we walked in, we could smell the dirty carpets. Very short-staffed. There weren't enough servers, but instead of telling us that, we noticed we had to wait for the 4pm crew to roll in. Some communication would have been nice if we were going to be waiting a while. Our server was very nice and took care of us well, despite being new and getting several other tables."
