Came here on 2/23/26 around 7pm. Restaurant wasn't that busy and there wasn't a host to greet or seat us. Eventually someone came out and showed us to our table. The reason for the 3/5 stars is the food. Their clam chowder and premium brussel sprouts were served cold and their lobster was over cooked to a point of being rubbery. Thankfully the complementary biscuits were hot and their shrimp scampi was cooked perfectly. Service was friendly and attentive and the restaurant was clean. Not sure I would return given their price point and lackluster food. read more

I'd always been curious about finally trying Red Lobster since I'd never been before. My best friend who used to work there had been raving about it for years. Recently, my fiancé, some friends, and family all came in to celebrate my best friend's grandma's birthday, so it felt like the perfect opportunity to finally give it a try. To start, the restaurant was very accommodating and we were seated within our reservation time, which we appreciated with a larger group. After we sat down, we placed our orders, but it did take quite a while for the food to start coming out on what seemed like a moderately busy evening. Unfortunately, what really ruined the evening for me was that two meals were still missing when the rest of the food arrived--mine and my fiancé's. On top of that, my friend's grandma's order was incorrect and one of our appetizers never came out. I'm not sure if our server was new, but he visibly seemed either nervous or a bit frustrated with us, which made the situation feel awkward. At that point we had to decide whether everyone should wait or eat while we waited for the remaining food. Of course, we told everyone to go ahead and enjoy their meals, even though some of the orders weren't quite right. By the time our meals finally arrived, it was already close to when the check was coming out, and even then some of the sides for entrees were mixed up. None of us were upset with the server personally--we understand that mistakes happen and restaurants can get busy. But overall, the experience was pretty disappointing, especially for a first visit and a birthday celebration. Unfortunately, it may end up being our first and last time. read more

Not quite sure what's going on today. I haven t had red lobster in a while. I wanted some fish. I ordered the admirals meal and I got some nasty watery stuff i guess they call tartar sauce now. It was disgusting. We only get 1/3 of the piece of fish we used to get. I can get over that but this creamy mess I can't. I see why I go to California fish grill. The food there is good, quality food. Im just going to say I didn't see anything admiral about this. It ruined my appetite. This use to be my favorite restaurant but I can see why most of them have closed. They seem not to care any longer. read more

Had been having a craving for crab legs for a while. They were very good, albeit on the smaller side, so more work but plenty to eat. Service was helpful and attentive. Cocktails, Long Island Iced Teas, were good. It had been a long time since we have gone there. We will be back :) read more

We had the pleasure of dining at this location 2 days ago and it was a real treat. Our experience began with awarm welcome.fron our server Eileen. She was knowlegable, efficient and took excellent care of all our request with a smile. The appetizer, stuffed mushrooms were hot, tasty and covered in scampie butter. The highlight was the bardi crab & crab boil. Both were delicious & cooked perfectly. The manager Olivia checked to make sure we were well taken care of! Looking forward to our next visit. read more

This was my first time here. The visit didn't start out well, because our OpenTable reservation did not get us seated until fifteen minutes after we arrived on time, and I was assured by the host that we would be seated within ten minutes. The men's restroom was somewhat messy. And the restaurant was already out of Mahi Mahi at 7:30 p.m. on a Sunday. Then things improved. Crabby Stuffed Mushrooms were hot, cheesy, and exceptional. Complimentary Cheddar Bay Biscuits were as good as ever. Diane liked her bowl of Clam Chowder. And a House Salad with Honey Mustard Dressing was a fine starter for me. My entree of Grilled Atlantic Salmon with Orzo Rice was moist and tasty. And Diane was pleased with her main of Walt's Favorite Shrimp accompanied by Mashed Potatoes. We had very good service from Marial. And seating in the cavernous dining room was comfortable. XXX-1/2 stars overall! read more

This was our first time coming here, and everything was just right from the start. Our server, Paige, was the sweetest, very attentive and always on top of everything. There were also other staff members who made sure we had a great experience. Truly the best service ever! And the place was clean and has a great ambiance. We ordered two Endless Shrimp and an Endless Soup & Salad. We left so full and happy! Loved the biscuits, clam chowder, and salads, also the Scampi Garlic Shrimp was absolutely the best. We'll definitely be back next time! read more

Terrible food is all I have to say. It was my first time at a red lobster and my last. This was the most Bland food I could imagine and for the price tag it was just crazy. Food didn't have any flavor and there was absolutely nothing special about it. I prefer my food with flavor. The only thing that was good were the cheddar bay biscuits. read more

This place is horrible... the wait was long which was expected but when we got the food it wasn't at all as described in the photo or description. Atmosphere was ok except for the crying babies in the booth behind us.. the biggest complaint was my husband got food poisoning from the food either not cooked all the way or over cooked. read more

John provided excellent service and excellent customer service is very affordable prices that you can't beat. I would definitely recommend him 10 out of 10. He placed one 50" and a 32". No problem and this was done in early June 2026. read more

Had a party of 6 and came in super hungry and ready to enjoy some cheddar bay biscuits! We were seated immediately and the whole restaurant was pretty busy for a weekday. Our server, Eileen, took care of us and she is by far one of the most delightful people I have ever met. She gave my entire party great food recommendations and was super attentive despite how busy she was, we never even had to ask for water refills! Big props to her! Foodwise, everything was very tasty and with the constant resupply of cheddar biscuits, we had a great experience. My order of the chicken parm(recommended by Eileen), was definitely a well deserved 5/5 and the appetizers came out nice, hot and crispy! All in all, the food was amazing but the true highlight of this visit was the impeccable service. If you ever visit, be sure to ask for Eileen! I'll definitely be coming back soon. read more

I had the worst experience here. The waiter didn't know what to do. It took an hour and half to get our food. Everyone around us who came after us got there food. I complained to the Hispanic manager who couldn't speak English very well. It was a bit total disaster. read more

I haven't been to a Red Lobster in years!! Since the Thai place across the street was closed my friend suggested we come here. Jason was our server and he was very kind, patient and explained some of the seafood dishes I was interested in. I noticed that the menu has changed in that there's such a wide range of seafood selections. My friend and I ordered the Clam Chowder to start off. It was really good and not too many potatoes and plenty of pieces clam. My friend had the Sesame-Soy Salmon Bowl and I ordered the Lobster Fest Dual. We both liked what we ordered. The restaurant appeared to be very clean from where I was sitting. This Red Lobster has been here for years.... Unfortunately I forgot to take any pics of our meals. But again our server Jason was very attentive and would check on us periodically to fill our water glasses and see if we needed anything. I most likely would come back when I'm in the Rancho Cucamonga area. read more

I'm have not been to Red Lobster for years. It's know they were in decline & that a number of locations have been closed. My parents love RL & found a location that was open. The restaurant at Ontario Mills was hopping. A number of larger parties were waiting. Servers were very busy & reception was prompt. I did notice a few smaller tables open. We were a party of 3 with a 20 minute wait. Once seated and a quick glance of the menu offered many choices. Strangely I noticed a few dishes had no prices. I understand market prices but it seemed unusual. I ordered an alcoholic drink, a ruby mule. After a long wait the drink finally arrived after reminding our server. The drink was refreshing & delicious. I had the Surf & Turf. Steak ordered medium rare. Mashed potato & Brussel sprouts. The lobster was smaller but moist, sweet & delicious. The Brussel sprouts were crunchy & tasty. I do recommend them, as they are an upgrade than the usual side choices. The steak was medium. Overcooked for my taste. It was a decent size but was somewhat bland. My parent chose linguine with shrimp & shrimp/lobster. They throughly enjoyed that meals. They had Ice tea but refills were slow coming. Their famous biscuits were warm & flavorful. You need to ask if you want more during your meal. Our server was young & he tried to engage us when he was around but follow up was lacking. Decor was old school, wooden bench type booths & smaller tables. It all seems to work but hasn't been updated in years. With the number of customers in the restaurant it was not overly noisy. Our meals were satisfactory. Pretty much to my expectations for this type of establishment. The updated menu had some choices that I may try in the future. I rate my experience as a 3.5 stars. read more

First time in this Ontario location, great experience on a super busy night on Mother's Day. Despite being busy it was very organized. Although our sirloin steak was tough, they were so kind to let us order another dish and didn't surcharge us for the lobster we ate with our serf and turf. Great quality on the seafood! read more

The food was just ok thought it could if had better flavor and much hotter ! However, the service was great which is the reason for the 4 star review. I ordered the stuffed flounder, which was good. Unfortunately, they will not have that anymore so I'm happy I was able to try it. The ambiance was nice and pretty clean inside! The service was phenomenal and our waiter was amazing and the manager. I may come back to this location again to try! read more

I went to this location on Wednesday May13th 2026 with my kids and their spouses. Service was excellent !!! Food was tasting good drinks flowing. We all had the Wednesday special steak and lobster for 29.99 minus my son and daughter they had endless shrimp. All who ate the steak and lobster fit food poisoning. Can only assume. As soon as we got home vomiting / diarrhea the whole 9. Im still recovering. I'm sorry to write a bad review but we have all been so sick since eating at this location. read more

I will never be eating at red lobster again. This is absolutely ridiculous. Spent between $50-$60 on such a little amount of food. This is crazy. You can go to a good crap place and get a whole bag for way less with way more food. this is absolutely unacceptable in my book in my book a tiny Claw with only 3 to 4 legs. Such a rip off, don't waste your money or time here read more

Excellent Service from Jennifer! We had a wonderful experience at Red Lobster celebrating my son's 33rd birthday. Our waitress, Jennifer, made the evening extra special. She went above and beyond, bringing everything we needed quickly and with such a friendly attitude -- and we asked for quite a bit! Jennifer is clearly a hard worker who genuinely cares about her guests. Red Lobster is lucky to have someone like her on their team. We'll definitely be back thanks to her excellent service! read more

I'm very torn on how many stars to give because my experience was up and down. I ordered online for pickup, a create your own feast, bowl of clam chowder and half dozen biscuits. My husband picked up the order and i unpacked it when we got home and clam chowder and baked potato toppings were missing. I called and spoke with Antonio the manager and he was kind and said my husband can come pickup the missing things and he added a piece of chocolate cake. That was the good part. He was kind and took care of the problem. My negative is about the clam chowder. I ordered and paid for a bowl not a cup. For $10.49 the container wasn't even full. The serving size is so small. I attached a picture of the container with a spoon in to show how low it was. A mistake was made and corrected and that was appreciated but the serving size for the clam chowder was not worth the money. read more

Every single side dish we ordered was delicious . Service was great and fast. Our server Eileen was friendly and nice, kept checking on us. The main dish of course, (surf and turf and lobster duo) was the star. The restaurant has improved a lot from the last time we ate. read more

We needed to use our gift cards before this place shuts down with the whole fall of Red Lobster. Took 45 min before we were even served bread. It didn't help that the bread was being served in our line of sight. So we saw multiple servers bringing their tables bread, while ours wasn't around to serve us. The 3 starts are for the food. The lobster was great - I really just love lobster. The lobster baked potato was disappointing though. The flavors just didn't work for me - made me wish I just got a chive/butter/sour cream basic baked potato instead. The biscuits were classic garlicky buttery salty biscuits we've all know and love. read more

Wanted to have a quick lunch before shopping at the Mills and we had a terrible experience. We got here at 4:23 and our food order was in by 4:30. We never received the complimentary biscuits. The highlight of red lobster is their scrumptious biscuits so for them to say the biscuits aren't done because "the bread lady just got here" is absurd. We received our food at about 5 and finally got biscuits. Initially When speaking to the manager all she could do was apologize and I asked if there was anything else she could do. She didn't fact comp our meal and checked on us a few times which I greatly appreciate but from the experience I wouldn't dine in again. read more

I Decided to come after listening to the C.E.O of red lobster speak on the breakfast club about all things Red Lobster and let me tell you...... This spot is a hidden gem!! The biscuits were insanely soft and good! The steak and lobster were hearty and delicious and cooked to perfection! And the quality to the price I paid is mind blowing. Officially became the biggest fan of Red Lobster!!! Shoutout to Monica, our server as well! She was really nice and took good care of us! read more

We came on a Sunday afternoon around 1230 pm. The place was not very full. The server who was very nice took a very long time to take our order. We were a party of 16. Still, the place was not full at all. The food took very long to come out. The prices are standard for seafood. But while we were waiting, the drinks weren't getting refilled. The biscuits took awhile to come out as well. My teenage son ordered a Caesar salad and all the dishes came out already and he's still waiting. I asked why it came out last and she said that she wanted to make it fresh. That's interesting. Overall, the food was just Ok some were not ok. Definitely not worth the price paid. read more

Food was great. Love the famous biscuits of course. Got the special of the day 1lb of snow crab legs on top of potatoes and one side included. $28!!! Can't beat that. Yummy food and the service was really great as well. I can't give too much for ambiance as the restaurant does need upkeep and updating. The booths were very worn and the tables as well. Overall good experience. read more

Tried one of the new items on the menu and was really impressed! Seafood Boil was flavorful, fresh, and clearly made with care. It's always nice to see a restaurant trying something new and nailing it. Definitely recommend giving it a try--hope they keep it on the menu! BUT..... I don't normally leave negative reviews, but this experience was disappointing on multiple levels. I found an insect in my drink and brought it to the staff's attention--unfortunately, they didn't offer any kind of accommodation or apology the manager didnt make their way over to me. On top of that, the bar service was very slow, even though it wasn't particularly crowded. Between the lack of basic customer service and unsanitary conditions, I won't be returning. read more

Not sure about this place anymore. Very reduced menu and extremely high menu prices. Interesting to listen to the wait staff complain about their jobs while you sit and eat.

3.5 stars. I haven't eaten food from here in probably about 5-6 years, but finally ordered curbside takeout. The employee brought the food out pretty quickly after I said I had arrived, but it was a Monday afternoon, so not crowded at all. The fry batter should have more zest. It's pretty bland. I got the wild-caught fried fish plate, but you don't get as many pieces as it shows in the menu photo. You only get 2, but the menu shows about 4. The stuffed mushrooms are good, but a little salty. The scallops could be bigger. The cheesey biscuits seem to be as good as always! The price you pay is a little steep for what you get (portion size and taste-wise). read more

We were a large group, our baked potatoes were cold and steak rather chewy. Hard to get refills on drinks.
