Update: management contacted me after my review and asked me to give the restaurant another chance. They said my experience was not common and didn't want me to be an unhappy customer. I'm happy to say that I had a completely positive experience when going back. I ordered the same meal as before. My waitress Hazel was quick, friendly and was juggling multiple tables. Food was good before and this time was no exception. I'm glad that I went back and consider my initial visit a one off bad meal. read more

We hadn't been to Red Lobster in years, but my husband and I gave it a try a few months ago and were blown away by both the delicious food and the outstanding service. We were so impressed that we came back tonight, and once again the service and food quality were just as exceptional. There aren't many places in Fairfield where you can get a great steak and lobster dinner at such an affordable price. Honestly, this steak was cooked better than the one at our favorite local steakhouse. For a chain restaurant, Red Lobster delivered a meal that truly exceeded our expectations. Everything was cooked to perfection, and you can tell the kitchen takes pride in what they serve. We're already looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommend! read more

Came in on a Wednesday dinner around 7PM for a table of 2. It looked semi busy inside but we were seated within 5 minutes. We were waiting to order for about 10 or 15 minutes, but a waiter later came by and apologized for the wait, explaining that no one had been assigned to serve our table. He offered to cover an appetizer for free for the wait, and then immediately brought fresh bread and our waters. Our food came pretty quick, and the lobster dip was good for being free, but for $17 I would probably have skipped next time. It was still a nice gesture that it was provided free due to the wait though. We got the viral crab boils and ordered one of the mariners and one of the Sailors boils in Cajun butter. They were a bit pricey (we are technically in the Bay Area) but comparatively it's a good deal because it comes with a lobster tail and snow crab legs. Our waiter also brought out cups of butter when we asked. For two people, I think just ordering the mariners boil could have been enough. Our food was well seasoned, especially the sausage. The corn could a bit more seasoned though. Our waiter let us know the bags had to be shaken and served to us at the table, but the bags are hot so it was totally fine and he didn't need to do it for us! The food also came with crab leg crackers, an extra plate, a fork to scoop out crab meat, and bibs. We were allowed to bring our leftovers home, requested more biscuits to take home, and got our receipt fairly quickly after requesting it. The restaurant was also clean, gave a calming muted vibe, and there was light music playing. Our server was the best part of the experience. He apologized for any inconveniences, was quick to remedy problems, helpful, and overall kind. He also let us know that he was waiting for fresh bread to get to us. I'm sorry I couldn't remember his name, but would recommend getting him as a server if possible! read more

Went to Red Lobster today and the Customer Service was excellent they go the extra mile to assist.

The server was nice, but selling up every 3 seconds, good for her, but read the room. Husband got the sirloin, seasoned broccoli and mashed potatoes. He said mediocre overall. Kids chicken strips/orzo rice were rubbery chewy at best, and we mentioned it to server that they were inedible. They didn't get taken off so my child ate my dinner. Combo shrimp grilled and Walt's were good, baked potato good, orzo rice just don't bother. Crusty, dried out rice kernels with orzo that's green- never seen that before. Biscuits good, though had to ask for more than 3 for the 3 of us. It was ok probably won't return. We were super excited to see a RL, but yeah not what we remembered. read more

5-star review for the Red Lobster in Fairfield CA. I haven't been in many months and was uncertain what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised. The signature biscuits were just as I remembered; warm, savory, soft, and tasty. Wanting to eat light, I ordered the Caesar Salad. The leaves were crisp, tasted fresh. The added warm bacon added zest and I was provided (without asking) extra dressing. Just in case. My ice tea with lemon tasted like ice tea (no mean feat these days), and the key lime pie was delicate, flaky and came with a healthy dollop of whipped cream. Delicious. Best of all, my waiter Jack was superb. He provided old-school service, anticipating my needs and checking in without being obtrusive. My order arrived quickly and he offered generous refills in a courteous, professional manner. Ask for Jack! Overall, a pleasing, "5-Star" dining experience at this Red Lobster location in Fairfield, California. read more

Always enjoyed coming to this location. Great service!!! They are consistent with their food presentation and delivery of food. Although the complimentary biscuits do seem a bit smaller. Tables are available for small or larger groups. Tried the seafood boil bags and it was average- but a nice addition to their menu. The bags are generous for one person. I can have the bag all to myself. Prices are reasonable... for two people can easily spend over 150.00 read more

We came here to try out the crab boil. We were a family of 5. We were seated almost immediately which was great but everything else took forever. The water, the straws, the bread, the food took about an hour. Our waiter Brandon (I think that's his name) was pleasant but I feel like he was overwhelmed as they were busy. He later informed us it's the first week of the crab boil and it's a popular item so naturally the kitchen was behind. We had to flag down someone to pay, took forever to get our receipt. Just not a good day. The margarita flight was delish and the crab boil was yummy. That's one plus. Another thing I noticed and wanted to speak to the manager about while my daughter and I were in the guest bathroom, we were washing our hands and were leaving out of the bathroom, as we were exiting, one of the workers (a female short height, hair in a bun, didn't catch her name) left immediately out of the bathroom stall and was right behind us as we were exiting. Didn't even wash her hands I was disturbed by that. It's common knowledge that you should wash your hands before returning back to work. Just disgusting. read more

I'll give this place 3.5-4 stars! I've gone to this location a couple times throughout the years of living in Fairfield and I really have no complaints about the food or cleanliness. The service is not too bad, when I went recently our server just took way too long to check back with us when we were ready to pay and leave. We ordered the mozzarella sticks which were cooked perfectly and had a good cheese pull. I ordered the mariners seafood boil with butter garlic sauce and I really enjoyed it! I'm a sucker for seafood boils. My husband ordered the Friday special which were the fish n chips with coleslaw and fries. The fries were good, the fish was not bad, but the coleslaw was terrible and bland, and I usually like coleslaw! read more

So I've been to this fabulous establishment twice now both times were amazing, the red lobster in the town I came from was not so good but this red lobster run don't walk. The staff is super accommodating and friendly on both trips. The manager came by our tables to check and see how our meals were going I ordered lobster both times and it was perfect.. The manager on duty Christmas Day Kim was awesome and then Albina was our server and they were both great. I know how hard it is to work on Christmas Day and keep a smile on your face, but they nailed it. I would go back for a Christmas Day dinner lunch any Christmas Day. read more

Stop by Red Lobster for lunch and decided to go with Crab Carbonara and a Caesar Salad and my wife selected the Sesame Salmon bowl. From entering the front door it was clean and you see the bar with plenty of options for alchohol and drinks. We were greeted about 5 mins later and seated around 10 minutes. The waiter was nice and had biscuits ready and water while taking our order. Caesar Salad was the first to arrive and a bit overdressed to my liking but I was hungry and lived with it and at the end of day it boils down to preference. Shortly after the rest of food showed up. My wife was very happy for her Sesame Salmon Bowl everything was fresh the Brussels sprouts compliments the Salmon real well and taste great. My Crab Carbonara was creamy rich with a mild taste of crab. I wish it had more crab meat but it worked. I took most it home and ate it as leftovers. Overall experience good and depending on what you order can be pricey but at least it's local. read more

My parents took me here for a birthday lunch and while the service was a bit slow, I gotta say I was sort of impressed. The salmon salad I got was very good and filling. The biscuits are still super good too. Service was still cool regardless of how long it took to get our food, and the place was clean. I may have to drop by again sometime and maybe just get some to go to try a few more things off the menu. read more

Update - brought the issue to the manager Kim and she graciously corrected it. Thank you Kim! Much appreciated! We are disappointed in the portion size of our lobsters today. Last year, the lobster tails were twice the size. Both times we ordered take-out. . Today was a special day for us - our anniversary. Is it a normal procedure to give smaller portions on take out? We paid over $100! read more

Got sick the last time I went there. It's not what it used to be u fortunately. My husband got sick too.

Good food. Awesome customer service. I order here whenever I can. I love the crab and the salmon bowl. These are my two favorites.

Food was quality, waiter was amazing. Even when the place was closing the staff will still attentive. There's one tall gentlemen in there that was a sweetheart. read more

This location is still open! Come get your lobster and crab fix! This is my grandmas favorite place to eat. She's loves her some lobster. Its her 90th birthday today and she wanted to come here, of course. We sat in the bar seating and Albi was our server. She is first class! Exceptional service, beyond expectations. Our food was great. It's was relatively mellow at about 5pm on a Friday. Very clean inside and outside too. I spoke to the manager, Dawn, and told her how amazing Albi is. Dawn is so sweet too! They really have a great team here. I have never had a bad meal here. Always great service. Not sure why they only have 3 stars. If I could give extra stars, I would. They deserve it. read more

We decided on lunch here since we were in the local area. We both ordered the lunch menu, Walt's favorite coconut shrimp and added a side salad. The shrimp were large, crispy, hot, and cooked perfectly! The side salad is huge and delicious, worth the added cost of $3. We enjoyed amazing service from Albina, she is the best, friendly, accommodating, attentive, and always checking on us while refilling our Iced teas! She brought us everything we requested in a moments notice. The biscuits are super delicious! Thank you so much Albina for your outstanding service! read more

10/10 the new sea food boil was good and flavorful. In addition the crab legs had great portions

How freaking hard is it to ensure that you put utensils and the sauces that go with the entree in a pickup order. It freaking pathetic that you can't take the time to do this knowing damn well that people won't come back. Get your act together. read more

I recently learned that Red Lobster was making changes to try to improve their product so we decided to give it a try after many years. We were seated right away however the server appeared to be very busy even though the restaurant didn't seem to be very full. It took a really long time to get our order in and even longer to even get water on the table. Our cocktails were weak and took forever to get. Our salad never came. The appetizer of crab queso was ok but lacking in crab. Our shared entre was very disappointing. The shrimp scampi was overcooked and the crab just didn't taste right. For the prices we paid I expect much mich better. The few positives for us was the biscuits, Cole slaw and the Lobster tail were very good and the server was friendly. We didn't complain and gave a nice tip but will not be back. read more

We ordered shrimp alfredo with extra sauce, shrimp your way, and chili verde soup. Really like the biscuits and appreciate they are included with orders. The pasta was fresh, delicious and plentiful. The extra sauce was almost $5 and was in a 4oz container however it was only half full. The shrimp was 2 different types but were very small and only 4 of each. Hubbie said soup tasted bitter. Overall we'll eat here again but there is room for improvement. read more

I hadn't been to Red Lobster in years. My friend and I decided to try it and see if it was the delicious meal we remember. Boy what a shock. We both ordered fish and chips and she also had the cup of clam chowder. The clam chowder was awful. Probably canned. It was super thick and tasteless and didn't have a single clam. The waitress came to our table and said "didn't you like it?" She said no and the waitress replied, "it's a new recipe we're trying out." Wow!! The fish seriously looked and tasted like the frozen Gortons fillets. Cole slaw, tasteless. Never going back. Waste of time and money. Doesn't even deserve one star. read more

Husband says The fish was chewy. Yes, chewy. The coleslaw had a weird sheen to it. The fries and hush puppy's were also previously frozen. The best part of the meal was the soda. I had the chicken Alfredo. Hard to mess up pasta unless you under cook it. This was not. It was great. However I do think the chicken was previously frozen as well. Also when you have pasta, a spoon should be given as well as the fork. I had to ask for it. There were hardly anyone in the restaurant at 4pm, so it was quiet and easy to talk and hear each other. We waited a while for our meal. Not sure why it took so long. Hadn't been to red lobster in over 20 years and now I remember why. We won't be back! read more

Service was the best part of this visit! Drink was mediocre and was watered down. This location has really changed over the years. Not the cleanest but it'll do for a Red Lobster. read more

I have been coming here for years - mostly for a special dinner or date night. The food is always hot & delicious! I don't think I have ever had a bad meal or service here. Today we were promptly seated, order our food, & maybe had a 10 minute wait to be served our food, even though the restaurant was pretty busy. All of our food was great!! I definitely recommend coming here for a nice seafood meal. read more

Went in to celebrate my husband's birthday and service was awful! Biscuits took 30-45 minutes to be ready and food took super long as well. It was on a Sunday but it was not too busy for biscuits and food to take super long. The server asked my husband if he was celebrating a special occasion and we said yes his birthday. He then asked if he wanted complimentary ice cream and he said yes. He then comes back to say they were out of ice cream. He didn't even try to substitute it with a dessert or something else. Even though it was just ice cream I feel like that was very rude and disappointing. The server never asked if he wanted them to sing happy birthday to him and other tables were singing happy birthday . Before getting seated we noticed another birthday getting singed to and received ice cream. Definitely bad service. Not coming back! BJs in Vacaville has 10/10 service and treat everyone with respect and go above and beyond to make your experience a great one. Shame on red lobster after we paid a good amount of money to get serviced and treated poorly. read more

To be quite honest, I haven't been to a Red Lobster in years. We were actually greeted by the person who would be our server. His name is Rodney. Honestly I can't remember the last time we had such friendly service. Everything ordered was brought out in a timely manner. Everything was piping hot. My husband was very satisfied with his lobster and steak. I had the garlic shrimp. We had also ordered lobster flatbread and seafood stuffed mushrooms. We thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Throughout our time there, Rodney constantly stopped by to see if we needed anything. I think we'll be coming back. Rodney thanked us for choosing Red Lobster and I'm glad we did! read more

Not sure when Red Lobster started serving pizza but I'm so glad they did. I ordered the Lobster and Langostino pizza and it was surprisingly delicious. Unfortunately, by the time I got home and ate it, it was a little cold but that was an easy fix. I threw it in the air fryer for a few minutes and it was so crisp and so flavorful. The crust of the pizza is very thin so it had a nice crunch to it especially after air frying it. I would say the amount of lobster on top was a bit sparse but that wasn't too much of a problem for me. They also provide a lemon and that really complimented the all the other flavors. read more
