We love, love, love this Red Lobster and drive past other Red Lobsters to get here. The service is always top notch and the food delicious. Jennifer, Melissa and Tori are just a few of the outstanding servers here who go out of their way to ensure you have a great dining experience. We love the Wednesday Steak and Lobster special and I tried the new Spend-less Shrimp special today and was wowed away by the taste and portion size. Thanks for all the great food and service, keep up the great work!

We don't eat out a lot but when we do, we come to Red Lobster. I love the Lobster Shrimp and Salmon and my husband always gets the Surf and Turf. If you like Brussel Sprouts you'll love the crispy ones here. I always order a double batch from our favorite waitress, Kim. She knows I love brown butter so I never have to ask for it and she is the only one who makes my husband's drinks right (he is very picky about his drinks). Highly recommend giving this place a try if you've never been.

The atmosphere was amazing. We were sat at a table right away. Our server had quite a few tables and was keeping up with everybody all of the wants and needs, Morgan did such an amazing job. We can’t say enough about the manager Steve, & Trisha who stopped by our table, treated us with such kindness. It was an amazing experience. I can’t wait to go back. Thanks again red lobster

I dont remember the servers name unfortunately but she worked 12/10/25 at 8pm and she was fantastic! Super friendly, understood the hustle for the biscuits lol. She was funny and communicative. Told us our drinks might take awhile but she had our drinks out immediately! Awesome sauce service!

Our server Flo was great. Very attentive and friendly. The food was seasoned so well. Last time we were here the food was hit or miss but today everything was fabulous.

I love coming here. Last time though, was on a Saturday night and I didn't have a reservation and it was a 45 minute wait, then we went and shopped somewhere else, came back, and it was another hour wait so we just went somewhere else. Make reservations so you don't have to wait!
