    SpEndless shrimp,  French fries, shrimp and linguine sauce also popcorn shrimp
    Lenny W.

    First of all , this review is from October 23rd, 2025 a day after my wife's birthday.I am just a little bit late on giving my review , but here goes! Our server, Ashla K was outstanding and very prompt and paid a lot of attention to us while she was working on the tables! She is definitely an asset to this Red Lobster location! We started off with the signature seafood mushrooms , which was to die for and then we had the SpEndless shrimp which was very tasty and so much of it to the point that we actually had to get a to go box! The SpEndless shrimp had garlic shrimp scampi, scallops, shrimp linguine alfredo, popcorn shrimp, and Chesapeake french fries , which was so dang flavorful it was ridiculous! This particular meal was enough for the 2 of us, but we did order 2, This is the reason why we had to get some to go boxes Because there was too much food! Needless to say , this was a good problem to have! Once again I do thank Ashla K for a memorable experience at this Red Lobster location and some of the best food that you will have ever eaten!!

    Had lunch here for my birthday!! The food was good and the atmosphere was great!! The lobster was great and the hush puppies were good as well. Lobster and clarified butter is awesome!!!

    The worst to go location ever. We had to wait over an hour past ready time. The manager said they had given food to wrong person. The food was cold and missing biscuits.

    Poor customer service

    I wanted to see what all the hype was about with the new menu, particularly the seafood bag. When I pulled up the parking lot was full and I parked in the back. I planned to eat there and get food for my kids to go. When I walked in the lobby and restaurant were also packed. I asked if I could order to go from the bar and the attendant said she would bring me a to go menu to the bar. She never did. All the stools were taken. I stood at the end of the bar with all the dirty drinks and a bunch of menus. I placed my to go order and I wanted to order a drink while I waited. The server said she couldn't do that and the bartender would have to ring it up separately. I found that odd considering it's one ticket if you dine in. It was pure chaos. The register wasnt working so the server couldn't ring me out initially. There is a new cocktail menu. However the prices weren't listed. Only for beer and wine. When I asked the bartender he said theyre $10 or $15. I waited 40 minutes for my food. I went through the bag to check that I had everything. However when I got home, I realized we didn't have crab stuffed mushrooms. There is no phone number on receipt, nor link for guest survey. When I called the first time, phone rang forever and they hung up as soon as they picked up. I called second time and call was answered by call center and transferred. I spoke with supv Miriam who offered to replace it if I came back up there. That definitely was not an option. She said Mgr ashley or Kim will call me back with a solution. The food was ok. Seafood bag was a good value, however flavor was not there. I prefer Mr and Mrs crab.

    Shrimp Feast with a Baked Potato
    Steve N.

    Two of us came in tired and hungry. Hadn't been to a Red Lobster for a while so thought we would give it a try. Started with a White Sangria and a Tito's and Strawberry Spritzer. Both hit the spot. Rather than ordering two meals, we ordered a Shrimp Feast with a Caesar Salad and a Baked Potato to share. Glad we did because it was more than enough food for two and the biscuits to start were excellent. Was a bit put off by the manager that seated us as he seemed tired and completely disinterested is his lot. Jon, our server was good and bought out our drinks and food with a friendly attitude. Nothing special about the meal other than it came out hot and was tasty.

    Lobster Lobster and Langostino Pizza
    Courtney W.

    Located on international drive right next to the Dockside resort at universal, we stopped in for dinner after a long day at the park. We have been to red lobster many times in other cities, mostly in Texas. Biscuits- a staple item. These seemed a tad underbaked because they were a little doughy, but I still enjoyed the salty cheesiness. Lobster and langastino pizza- we almost always order this when we go to a red lobster because it's deliciously crispy and cheesy with chunks of lobster meat. This one was actually slightly different because this location is testing some changes that may potentially be implemented across the country. The crust was softer on the bottom than the previous version, but still thin with crispy outer crust. There's a mayo-based sauce dolloped on top along with tomatoes and roasted red peppers, all of which are great. Lobster meat is also yummy. Seafarers feast- overall very well executed. Fried shrimp were crunchy and so savory, paired very well with the sweet cocktail sauce. Shrimp scampi was deliciously garlicky and buttery. Scallops were cooked right and pretty good in size. Lobster was pretty good as well and of course comes with butter for dipping. Service was fantastic. Our waitress was so kind and the manager also came to check in on us. Overall great option for lunch or dinner any day of the week.

    I called ahead about a little over a week ago to make a dinner reservation for a party of 22. The…read morestaff was great, from making the reservation to reconfirming the morning of the dinner. When I arrived with some of my dinner guests, we still had a wait before we were escorted to a private room. We encountered an issue with one of the servers and I had to request to speak with a manager. Rachel came over and we spoke about the unfortunate situation we were having. Rachel apologized and worked to get us someone else to take care of us. After that, we settled in and enjoyed the rest of our dinner. I ordered the Beef Empanadas, the Tequila Sunburn Glazed Salmon (comes with Mashed Sweet Potato and Green Beans) and a Dragon Fruit Margarita. The Dragon Fruit Margarita was delicious. I didn't want to get full before receiving my food so I took sips while we waited. It was hard not drinking it all too quickly. It was good. It was served in a glass with a sugar coated rim and lime wedge. The Beef Empanadas are an all-time favorite and never disappoints. I couldn't eat all my food so I packaged the rest to go. I was presented with a glass of ice cream topped with whipped cream and cherries. A candle perfectly placed in the ice cream was lit and waiting for me to make a birthday wish and blow out the flame. The night was not over yet. After dinner, we went outside and sat to listen to the live steel pan music. It was a wonderful way to end the evening. As the cool air embraced us so did the melodic tunes of the steel pan music. Thank you Rachel for salvaging the evening and remedying our unfortunate experience with one of the service staff. Your response and actions saved the evening and help earned this four star rating.

    The Cowfish Sushi Burger Bar is a unique dining concept that combines two completely different…read morestyles of food: sushi and burgers. Located in CityWalk, we walked into a space that leans heavily into the idea of mixing Japanese-inspired dishes with classic American comfort food, creating a menu that feels more like an experience than a traditional restaurant. The interior has a fun, energetic atmosphere with colorful decor, making it a popular stop before or after visiting the nearby parks. The energy in the room is lively, with a mix of families, groups, and couples, and the layout includes a bar area that stays active throughout the evening. The biggest draw is the "burgushi," which combines burger and sushi elements into one dish. It sounds like a gimmick at first, but we found that some of the combinations actually work surprisingly well. The sushi options are creative, with specialty rolls and presentations that make the dishes stand out, while the burgers provide a more familiar option for anyone who is not looking for seafood. We tried a few of the specialty rolls and found them well executed, with fresh ingredients and thoughtful flavor combinations that did not rely solely on the novelty of the concept. The burgers are solid and offer a reliable backup if you are not in the mood for sushi. The menu has a good variety, so groups with different preferences can usually find something they enjoy, and the playful presentation of many dishes adds to the overall experience. Beyond the main dishes, the appetizers are also worth exploring. The crab rangoon dip is one of the more popular choices and fits well with the restaurant's style, offering a fun twist on a familiar flavor that we found enjoyable as a shared starter. The fries and shareable items make it a good place for groups, especially if you want to try multiple things instead of committing to just one entrée. The variety across the menu encourages sharing, and the portions are generous enough that ordering a few appetizers alongside the mains works well. Service can vary depending on how busy the restaurant gets, and we noticed that wait times can become longer during peak hours. Reservations are helpful, especially around park closing times when many visitors are looking for a place to eat. We arrived a bit early and found the bar area to be a good option while waiting, and the overall environment made the wait feel less inconvenient. The staff were friendly and handled the busy flow with efficiency, though the kitchen pace can slow when the restaurant is at capacity. The Cowfish Sushi Burger Bar is worth visiting for the experience and creativity behind the menu. While not every item will be something you would order repeatedly, the combination of sushi, burgers, and playful dishes makes it stand out from typical CityWalk restaurants. It is a place that works best when you go in expecting something fun and different rather than a traditional sushi or burger restaurant, and the balance of novelty and quality makes it a memorable stop during a visit to the area.

    UPDATE: Sara L asked me to contact the business, I did. They were unsympathetic and said there is…read morenothing they can do, this was a complete waste of 30 mins of my time sitting on hold with no resolution. Adding to an already horribly frustrating experience and making it even worse. Horrible experience start to finish. I cannot believe how cheap this place is with food and portions. Here's an example: my youngest child ordered a kids California roll box - it came with 8 (EIGHT) French fries and 4 hilariously small sushi coins - when it was dropped he asked if it was an appetizer and he is not a "big" kid (70 lbs). For $14 that is mind boggling as it's not even fish and 90% of his "meal" if you can call it that was French fries my god talk about being cheap. That was just the tip of the iceberg. My family and I went here and left starving after paying a $130 bill plus tip. When everything is screwed up the customer is always assumed to be the problem and I'm just not comfortable speaking up as it is quite embarrassing and honestly it should never have happened and put me in that predicament. This restaurant should be ashamed of themselves. We had to go to another place and spend the same amount of money a second time to eat a proper dinner after this scam. Disgusted with Universal and this restaurant. I cannot believe Universal allows this and that this place is allowed to get away with it. Stay far away from Cowfish, there is a reason they have lots of open reservations I thought I was just incredibly lucky - the exact opposite is true. So pissed off after this, my family and I would have been better off lighting that money on fire in the parking lot. On top of all that - We ate in shifts, my youngest child's food was dropped at least 15 mins before our food was brought out. He was done. That was the literal cherry on top of a horrible experience. We came in there to eat as a family we should be served as a family.

I kept hoping I'd have a better experience, but unfortunately, my opinion hasn't changed. The biggest positive is the location. It's in a great area, the restaurant itself is beautiful, and there's plenty of seating both inside and outside. The service has also been consistently good. Every waitress I've had has been friendly, attentive, and professional. The food, though, just doesn't do it for me. I've ordered something different each visit, hoping to find a favorite, but I always leave feeling underwhelmed. The cocktails have tasted watered down, and most of the dishes have lacked the flavor I was expecting. On my most recent visit, I ordered the shrimp and scallop spaghettini. It was overwhelmingly pasta with very little seafood, and the dish itself was pretty bland. Of everything I've tried, the truffle fries and the Korean bibimbap were the standouts because they actually had some flavor. I can definitely understand why so many people enjoy Earls, and it's always busy, but it just isn't my style. If I'm in the Millenia area, there are several other restaurants I'd choose before coming back here. For me, the atmosphere and service are much stronger than the food.
