    Red Lobster is always one of my favorite places, especially for their biscuits. They came out hot and fresh, just how I like them. I ordered the shrimp linguini along with popcorn shrimp and mashed potatoes. The popcorn shrimp could have been a little bigger, but they were still decent. The mash was mashing. No complaints. My server was very polite. The venue wasn't busy at all probably because i came around happyhour. Overall, I enjoyed my meal.

    They're also running their Shrimp special currently.

    I have visited this Red Lobster a few times. Usually it's for their Lobster Fest or Crab fest promotions. I was very disappointed with the crab fest when I ordered the Dungeness crab and they were extremely small! I had to talk to the manager to request a few more legs added to make it worthwhile. Today I found out they have a Wednesday special of Surf & Turf for $24.99. I was worried that something wouldn't be right about it. The 7 oz steak was actually quite good. The lobster although good, was extremely thin. I've never seen a lobster tail this thin!! When I pointed it out to the server all she said was, "well that's why it's a special". So unfortunately I was a bit disappointed again. A broccoli was also overcooked and mushy. The server was very good however.

    7/29/25-. Sat at bar. The bartender was as not there , she was working tables in the dining room too So she was around . I knew what I wanted when I got there but the ( Bartender ) I'm sorry I didn't get her name when I said I wanted the crabs legs she recommended in the bag that came with roasted potatoes, which are good two clusters of the snow crabs and a quarter piece of corn on the cob always very good ,very messy but it comes with a pair of gloves, your bib nutcracker, and a small little fork. They don't split them, so I brought my kitchen shears . Hubby got the twin lobster tails, One Maine one other kind. They have daily specials and Tuesday they have Crab fest , that seafood boil which was worth it for $25. I asked for the Keylime because I heard it was good. It was a slither and when she came so we're out of whip cream and she made a gesture of that it came out of a can well, and I gotta charge the whole price for that little thing not acceptable.

    I stopped by this Red Lobster location to try their 3-course shrimp sensation for only $19.99. You start off with your choice of a soup or salad, followed by an appetizer, then ending with an entree with one side. It wasn't that busy inside the restaurant, yet people were steadily coming in. I took a seat at the bar and greeted the bartender who was occupied with mixing a variety of drinks for the servers to take to their assigned tables. After bringing a small basket of cheddar bay biscuits and pouring me a nice glass of Moscato, she took my order for the 3-course shrimp sensation. First to arrive was the Caesar salad and jumbo coconut shrimp. The salad was freshly prepared with crunchy croutons, shaved parmesan cheese, and creamy Caesar dressing on the side. The coconut shrimp was fried well with a coconut coating. There was a pina colada dipping sauce that complemented the shrimp nicely. The shrimp linguine alfredo with a side of mashed potatoes came a few minutes later. I started with the mashed potatoes which was very yummy. I slowly began picking at the shrimp alfredo. Don't get me wrong it was delicious, I was just on the verge of feeling full and could not finish the dish so I asked for a container to take it home. It was an enjoyable meal overall on a quiet evening. Looking forward to return to try any new items being promoted during the summer season.

    I had a wonderful birthday dinner w my husband, son and daughter in law! Great service from server, Stephanie! (loved that I brought my own REAL melted butter! Lol) Everyone's drinks and dinners were delicious, kind of a nice surprise! Prices very reasonable! I totally recommend. Thank you Red Lobster!

    I thoroughly enjoyed my Veterans Day offering of shrimp and fries! I also ordered a margarita flight, which was very strong. The service was great as the wait was only about five minutes and once seated, we were immediately attended to. It was very busy as large families and veterans were visiting however, everyone seem to be getting attended to in a timely manner, and everyone seemed happy as I could see. The ambience was warm and welcoming, and was very clean as the tables were quickly attended to once families left. I will give this location a five star for this occasion.

    I am a lover of crabs. I came for the crabs. My first impression of the place was that the restaurant needed an upgrade in decor. Things looked a little old. The service was friendly and good. The food service was slow. We waited a while for those garlic crabs lol. They were worth the wait. They tasted great. The fried potatoes buried under were delicious. I liked them very much. I thank God for those biscuits that made the wait pleasurable. I ended up taking the chocolate cake home. I had no more room. The cake was good. I recommend getting it if you like chocolate. It was a chocoholic's dream. This chain has a rewards program. It looks like something worth checking out. You sign online. It even gives you a birthday reward. That is cool.

    Someone gave me a gift certificate to Red Lobster so off we went. This location has been here for year and I wasn't sure what to expect. We were greeted by the charming Lorenzo who showed us to our seats and let us pick our booth. We went early so there was plenty of space. The hubs started off with a Mocha Espresso Martini which came with a brownie piece on the rim. It was quite refreshing and well made. Those Chesapeake Bay Cheddar Biscuits came out and they were fresh, warm and DEEEEEELICIOUS! We ordered the shrimp and lobster fried stack which had large pieces of fried shrimp and lobster and came with hush puppies, french fries, and coleslaw. The coleslaw was amongst the freshest I've eaten in a while-not overly drenched or overly peppered. The food was as expected. I ordered the Lobster Lovers Dream which came with a rock lobster and Maine lobster tail and shrimp linguini with Alfredo sauce. I opted for a loaded baked potato and broccoli as my two sides. I was pleasantly surprised with the freshness and the quantity of the meal. For $49, it was a good deal by todays standards. Lorenzo cake by to check on us throughout the meal and the manager stopped by at the end. I'm kicking myself for not remembering her name because she was so lovely and attentive and I am convinced that she is the reason for the service turnaround at this location. This location is older but clean and well kept. I give it 4 stars on the scale of chain restaurants. We thoroughly enjoyed our service and meal and would definitely go back.

    Dirty Menu
    Josh G.

    Let me start by saying I grew up loving Red Lobster. But as the photo shows this place isn't even deserving of the same name anymore. Last year this same time we visited this same location for my mom's birthday and did not have a great experience but we thought we'd give it another chance this birthday. Arrived at 7pm to be told it would be a 10-20 minute wait, let me tell you it was almost double that didn't get seated until about 7:40 while the restaurant was half empty on a Tuesday. Tried to go to the bar and grab a drink as we waited for a table to become ready and there was no bartender. I finally flagged the manager who handed my a drink menu and I got a dirty menu see picture, after being seated at about 7:40 and ordering drinks we waited 17 minutes and still no drinks so I decided to go to the bar once again to see if I could ask someone about the status of said drinks as I couldn't find our waitress anywhere. When I was seen at the bar is when I saw the drinks sitting there on the other end and the server brought them to the table. 8:11 finally saw the server again and was told there were no metal crab cracker tools they're in the dishwasher and we were given some plastic device I've never seen in order to use to open the crab with. 8:14 the food was brought out. 8:28 1 crab cracker was brought out for 3 people who ordered crab to share 10 minutes later another singular crab cracker was brought again for 3 people. I will say the crab legs with the Cajun seasoning was good I just wish I could have gotten all of it and the drink was fine as well. But the cherry on top of the bad experience was the dirty bathroom also shown in the pictures. I'm sorry to say after two attempts over two separate years I think this one is going down as a childhood memory but no more red lobster for this family.

    Unlimited all you can eat shrimp  Shrimp Linguini Alfredo Garlic Shrimp Scampi
    Ashley S.

    Came here after spending some time in the area. I was craving some shrimp Alfredo from red lobsters and their classic cheddar biscuits. When we got there, the hostess assistant, I said finding us a table we were immediately seated. The area looks clean. Our server was a bit dry didn't seem too friendly and would take some time to come back and check on us so I had to call down another worker for assistance. At the time they had unlimited all you can eat shrimp so we did that deal and I also got the salmon New Orleans style, the salmon was a bit undercooked for me. The lobster pizza is always bomb! I also tried a limited, edition, watermelon martini was very sweet and not too strong. The staff there was OK didn't seem friendly nor were they rude but I didn't feel so welcoming.

    A friend and I went here for lunch. The waitress came up right away and brought us those hot cheddar bay biscuits. They were yummy. I opted for the lunch special choosing the broiled flounder with a side of mashed potatoes. The flounder was a little fishy tasting and didn't have much seasoning. The mashed potatoes were good enough. I am not a big eater, but the portion of fish was pretty small. It came with one side. The waitress was wonderful, with friendly and efficient service. The place looked like a typical Red Lobster, cozy and clean. I just wish the meal was a little bit more flavorful. I have had the flounder before at a different Red Lobster and it was tastier. I would give this place another chance in the future and order something else.

    Came to this location because we had a gift card. The service and the food were good, but the inside and walls just were not clean. If what we could see wasn't clean, I don't want to know what the areas that we can't see (i.e. the kitchen) look like.

You can really tell it's made with quality ingredients, making it one of the best margaritas I've had in a while. The salmon appetizer was equally impressive.

    Very disappointing experience…read more We arrived for lunch with a group of 8 people and, from the moment we walked in, the hostess made us feel like she was doing us a favor by seating us. She repeatedly told us she was "making an exception" for our party. Then she lectured us about having to sit at two separate tables with two separate checks. What really crossed the line was when she said, "If I see you passing food between tables, we'll stop serving you." That comment was unnecessary, disrespectful, and completely inappropriate. We were paying customers, not asking for free food or special treatment. There's a time and place to explain restaurant policies, but the way they were communicated made us feel unwelcome before we had even ordered. Hospitality is about making guests feel valued, and unfortunately, that was completely missing here. We chose to leave rather than spend our money somewhere we clearly didn't feel wanted. There are plenty of restaurants that appreciate their customers, and we'll be supporting those instead.

Parking was conveniently located right in front of the restaurant, making it an easy stop. As soon as we walked in, we were warmly greeted and invited to sit wherever we liked.

Our waitress was pleasant, attentive, and made us feel right at home, which always enhances the dining experience.

We started with the Caribbean Tea shots, which were unique, refreshing, and surprisingly enjoyable. For drinks, we ordered a Malbec and a Peanut Butter Old Fashioned. Our first entrée was the Churrasco Frites, featuring marinated skirt steak topped with chimichurri and served with twister fries. The steak was cooked perfectly, tender and flavorful, but those fries were the true star of the dish. Still wanting more, we ordered the Garlic Parmesan Twice Cooked Wings. They were nicely prepared and satisfying, though I would have enjoyed a stronger garlic flavor. Not quite finished, we moved on to the Oaxaca Burger, an 8 ounce burger stacked with onion rings, bacon jam, house BBQ sauce, and Oaxaca cheese. This was one of the best burgers I've ever had, and possibly the best. The bun was toasted yet soft, the burger was seasoned perfectly, and it was cooked to a juicy medium temperature. Every bite was packed with flavor. Overall, everything we ordered was excellent, and the service and atmosphere made the experience even better.

Even though my dish missed the mark, the service and atmosphere were solid enough that I'd still consider giving eTwic another try in the future. Sometimes one item just doesn't hit, and there were definitely enough positives about the restaurant to make me curious to come back and try something different next time. I know that one friend at the table really enjoys this place so I must believe that she has good taste!

    South Kitchen & Bar is truly one of Pompano Beach's best hidden gems! If you love New Orleans…read morecuisine with a delicious Caribbean flair, this is a must-visit. We enjoyed Sunday brunch on the beautiful outdoor patio with our little dog, and despite the Florida heat and humidity, we were perfectly comfortable beneath the shade of the magnificent tree. It created such a charming and relaxing atmosphere. The Unlimited Brunch absolutely lives up to the rave reviews. The value is incredible, and the food just keeps coming! Every dish was thoughtfully prepared, but our two favorites were the Gouda Shrimp & Grits and the Sweet Potato Waffle--both were pure decadence on a plate. We also loved the flaky biscuits, the sweet roll, the deviled eggs...and that's just the beginning. There were so many wonderful dishes to sample that every dish brought to the table was another delicious surprise. From the creative, flavorful cuisine to the attentive, friendly service, every aspect of our visit was exceptional. South Kitchen & Bar delivered a brunch experience we'll be talking about for a long time, and we can't wait to return. Highly recommended!

    I recently visited South Bar & Kitchen for their Old School Saturday Supper event, and while the…read moreatmosphere had its highlights, the overall dining experience left me wanting more. The restaurant is located in Pompano Beach with both street parking and several nearby parking lots, which made parking fairly easy. That said, the surrounding area felt a little sketchy, and as a woman, I personally wouldn't feel comfortable walking around alone at night. The restaurant itself is cute, casual, and inviting, with both indoor and outdoor seating. The event was held outside, where DJs kept the crowd entertained with a great mix of hip-hop, R&B, and old-school classics. The music was definitely one of the highlights of the night. Because the humidity was unbearable, even after the sun went down, I chose to sit inside for dinner before heading out to enjoy the event. Unfortunately, the service wasn't great. I understand they were likely busier than usual because of the event, but our waiter wasn't very attentive. He told us to flag him down if we needed anything, which isn't exactly what you expect when dining out. Our drinks took about 20 minutes to arrive, and although we were told the bar was backed up, they ended up tasting mostly like juice with very little alcohol. For appetizers, we ordered the crab beignets. They were just okay, but the mustard dipping sauce was actually really delicious and probably my favorite part of the dish. My friend ordered the fried chicken sandwich, and I had the shrimp Caesar salad. The salad came with much more dressing than I prefer, making it a bit overwhelming. My friend thought her sandwich was decent, but unfortunately it didn't sit well with her stomach the following day. After dinner, we headed outside to enjoy the party. The outdoor deck is built around a beautiful tree and offers plenty of seating, along with a separate outdoor bar, which created a fun atmosphere. One thing that stood out, though, was how slippery the deck was. At first I thought it might have been my shoes, but after hearing several other people mention the same thing, it seemed like I wasn't the only one who noticed. Overall, the entertainment and outdoor atmosphere were enjoyable, but I wouldn't return for dinner. The menu is fairly limited, and with fewer options, I expected each dish to really stand out. Unfortunately, the food and service just didn't live up to those expectations. If you're looking for good music and a fun Saturday night vibe, the event is worth checking out, but I wouldn't go for the dining experience alone.

    ** Classic Vacation Spot! Great Drinks & Killer Blackened Chicken**…read more First official lunch stop of our Florida trip is in the books, and **Legends** absolutely delivered! We managed to slide in just in time for happy hour, so the wife kicked things off right with a great cocktail. To keep the kids happy while we looked over the menu, we started with the mozzarella sticks and corn dog poppers. Both were total crowd-pleasers--crispy, melty, and didn't last long on the table. For the mains, the family spread was a massive success. The kids went with the classics: a juicy cheeseburger with golden fries, and crispy chicken tenders with perfectly fried tater tots. Both got total nods of approval. The wife and I went the salad route, ordering the Cobb salad and the Caesar salad, both topped with blackened chicken. Let me tell you, that blackened seasoning is the real deal here! It gave both salads a smoky, savory punch that elevated the whole meal. At the end of the day, Legends serves up **classic bar food done absolutely right**. The vibe is fun, the food is unpretentious and delicious, and the service was on point. It's a fantastic, reliable spot that I'd highly recommend to anyone in the area. We will definitely be back on future visits!
