Red Lobster

What a shame! My husband and I drove an hour away and passed 1 other location because, this location was our favorite. We walked in to a server and hostess arguing loudly. We were sat and the 1st 2 booths had silverware rolled in one and a manager on her phone rolling silverware. Our waitress was new and very attentive. We ordered drinks and mushrooms. They tasted like 10 day old stinky fish, not edible. We didn't order anything else paid our bill and ran.

You wanna really know why Red Lobster is filing for chapter 11...... Come visit this location. Look, my wife and I both love seafood and I'll admit we both love Red Lobster a few times a year. Typically the food is really good for what it is. On this short visit we walked in to a waitress arguing with the hostess about not having any guest in her area. We were finally sat at a table close to the front with a view of the Manager rolling silverware at a booth talking on her phone. We began to place our normal comfort meal. We received our seafood stuffed mushrooms which I almost gagged on due to the extreme fishy taste which tells me the stuffing had more than likely exceeded the best if used by date. My wife and I both looked at each other and decided to run while we could. The bathrooms and restaurant itself could also use a good scrubbing. I felt like I needed to call Animal Control once we looked at the lobster tank, which went out of style last time MC Hammer performed. What a disappointing trip. On the positive our server was super sweet.

The Family Fest was great!

Cheddar Bay Biscuits! This is a yummy Red Lobster! It has been a while since I've enjoyed this franchise to this extent. Service was good enough, but the food was exceptional.

Food was wonderful, everyone was very nice and friendly.

They have changed and lost their niche. This time the endless shrimp was an endless wait. Never asked to bring more biscuits or refill my lemonade.
