One of the very few Red Lobsters left in Washington. :") The staff here were very welcoming and nice, as we came here to celebrate my aunt's birthday, as she's a huge lobster fan. The food was delicious and is a perfect family sit-down restaurant. Thank you, Red Lobster! read more

Food was terrible. Service was terrible. Our server didn't check on us to find out the soda she brought out had barely any syrup. After the manager made that right, the server didn't come by to check if we needed more to drink until we were well past finished eating. The price would have been fine if the food wasn't terrible. And they got one of our orders wrong but since it took so long for everything else we didn't want to say something and have to wait even longer. We won't be back. read more

We decided to GrubHub Red Lobster! And we are glad we did! I am very particular in getting hot food and this place delivered delicious food and it was hot! We ordered the Shrimp special that included scampi , popcorn shrimp and shrimp linguine! We got a child's fish dinner! And we ordered extra fries and the famous biscuits! This was a great spread. It has been awhile since I had those soft biscuits! It was like reuniting with an old friend. This platter was easily shareable with my husband I. The kid's meal was a hit but they forgot the little guy's milk. It was forgivable. Overall, I was happy with the food and service. I am ready to come visit when we are in the area but I will definitely order again. Thank you Red Lobster! read more

Happy hour scam. Offers two beer on tab (blue moon and bud light). However they claimed they ran out of blue moon. Two different mixed drinks for happy hour and both are just sweet and no alcohol. read more

Just left this place and it was horrible, stay away. The food was bad. It was cold, not well seasoned, and mush. We waited a total of an hour and a half from being seated to leaving. Wife had the fish and chip with a side salad. They didn't bring the salad but did upcharged us for it. Fish was mush and tasted like nothing. Had to ask the person who brought our food for more biscuits and refills. I had the sesame salmon bowl. Taste was good but cold. Service was baddd. The waitress was terrible (Tiana C.) and never checked on us until I asked for the bill. She was asked 3 time for biscuits from the table behind us and they never got them. I can see why they are going out of business. read more

The food was delicious. Very tender filet, though one more minute would have been perfect for medium rare. The lobster was outstanding. The ultimate feast was perfect. However the menu is very confusing. And the sides you can choose were as well. Having to pay extra for a loaded potato seemed a bit much, as well for a garden salad. Apparently they also had a few new waitstaff so service was off slightly. It was very nice decor though it seemed slightly cramped. Will we go back? For the lobster, definitely. For the feast yes. Not for the filet. Small, 6 oz. and though delicious seemed overpriced. read more

We enjoy coming here for Seafood. We are getting older so don't eat as much. My wife and I split the Ultimate Feast dinner and ordered the Crab Queso dip. Both tasted delicious as always. You can tell business has picked up based on the wait time for a table. Service was great as always. Will be back for sure. read more

June 23 2026 sat in a booth by the window for 23 minutes and never had a encounter with any employee at all. So we got up and left. The young man in the front thanked us for coming in and hope we enjoyed out meal. I told him no one ever came to serve us, and he said "oh "and we left. read more

Always The Best Shrimps . Great Customer Service Credit to Ms Dawn ... will Always Be back in this Location

Okay... the Hype is not real. We had sworn out Red Lobster a long time ago due to the lack luster bland food. We got the "crab boil" and "Cajun fettuccine" and we left not pleased. The menu appears the same with the exception of oily "sauces" that are separated with the seasoning sitting in a bowl with soo much oil. The fettuccine noodles were soggy, the chicken breast felt like fast food chicken or at least frozen. We will not be returning. The only positive was the exceptional waitress who helped us. read more

We called this Red Lobster last minute the day of a funeral and asked them to accommodate a large party after the service. They were wonderful, accommodating, and kind. Amy was especially helpful in making the reservation and helping everyone feel comfortable. Our servers were super stars. And Lobster Fest to boot! Who could ask for more?!? read more

I've been to this location twice this year and both times were quite pleasant. Once during lunch peak and once during the dinner rush. Both times we were seating pretty much immediately and the servers were polite and attentive. Endless shrimp is my jam so I've been soaking it up while it lasts. You can't go wrong with this route as the varying shrimp options keep things exciting. I recommend stopping in and giving this place a shot if you're on the fence. Keep in mind that Red Lobster is a corporate franchise and they likely have a staff shortage just like every other restaurant in town. Overall we had no complaints; from service to cleanliness and food quality, everything was great. read more

I came here for my friends birthday. The cheddar biscuits came out steaming hot!!! Our food was delicious. I got a boil and the butter sauces are so damn good!!! Our server Dakota was beyond amazing!! He kept the biscuits coming. I didn't have to ask for Happy Birthday to be sung to my roommate!!! Dakota automatically asked if it was ok and did it all on his own!!! We had no wait time. I love it was quiet and that the music gave a nice atmosphere to my roommates celebration!!! read more

We gathered tonight for my son's birthday. We had a group of 6 and Dawn was our incredible server. We arrived before most of our party and Dawn was very attentive and even brought us a couple biscuits while we waited. We LOVED the bacon wrapped scallops. Perfectly tender and amazing flavor. Cheese sticks hit the spot with perfect crunchy exterior and gooey cheese center. We enjoyed the calamari as well. My son enjoyed the feast everything from the lobster to the shrimp and crab. I will say the brussels sprouts I would pass on next time as they were overly saucey and it was very sweet and overwhelming. Shrimp scampi is my favorite of the shrimp selections. We had plenty of left overs and nobody left hungry. We wrapped up the evening with singing, happy birthday and enjoying cheesecake. Dawn really made us feel like VIPs and made the night extra enjoyable. read more

Went with my best friend yesterday for my late birthday celebration. We came In shortly after they opened for the day and it was nice and quiet. We were seated at a booth in the bar and the bar tender promptly took our drink order. My friend went with Prosecco and I got a watermelon mint margarita. My friend ordered a ceaser salad with lots of bacon and I got the endless shrimp deal with coconut shrimp, garlic shrimp scampi and shrimp linguine Alfredo plus a side salad with mango pineapple vinaigrette and lobster mashed potatoes for my sides.. and of course we ate plenty of the cheddar biscuits that aren't even really biscuits to us. They're more like warm cheddar clouds of deliciousness! As much as I enjoyed my meal here , I couldn't quite finish even one round of endless shrimp..what was I thinking?? I guess my eyes just got bigger than my stomach! Those cheddar biscuits are so damn good that I can't stop eating them so I'm sure that didn't help but overall I still feel like I got my moneys worth. Everything tasted great !! The lobster mashed potatoes was a $6 upgrade side but I highly recommend getting it m, the vinaigrette for the salad was so good... it's just too bad we had a lot of flies hang out around the table and they were very drawn to my salad so I didn't quite even get to enjoy half of the salad .. between that and them running out of the new dragon shrimp within 30 minutes of opening is why I removed a star. I really wanted to try the dragon shrimp but I didn't get to :( Overall though we had a pleasant experience with great food and service. I want to stop by again for lobster and shrimp tacos, another watermelon mint marg and of course more cheddar biscuits!! read more

Wonderful service! We came here for my dad's birthday, just 4 of us. I asked the staff about us getting the check secretly and when I told them it was his birthday, they also offered to sing and surprise him. They really showed exceptional service and kindness to us. I feel really bad for forgetting our waitresses' name but as it was now a couple weeks ago and I am always bad at names, I hope she will forgive me. It was easy to get a table and quiet which I super appreciate because I have major hearing loss. The food was also good, exactly what you expect from red lobster. We had coconut shrimp, virgin pinacolada, breaded calamari, clam chowder and some other things I forgot. I would recommend the calamari, super good! I wasn't as much a fan of the coconut shrimp because the sauce wasn't what I expected, but it wasn't bad, I think I just prefer a different sauce. And of course we had the biscuits which are such a staple. Thanks for such a great birthday celebration! read more

This is typically are go to Red Lobster. The table side service has been good. But the curbside is atrocious. We places a 100$ order and arrived. We received a text saying that our order was on the way out to us. 15min later nothing. So we assume they must be slammed. Nope place is empty. Ask the guy at the counter if we can get our order they say yes and go back to their phone my partner clears his throat and they say oh yeah what's the name. So then the guy finds out there is an order. So my partner has to ask well can we have it? By the time we get the order the food is cold and the ice cream that comes with the dessert is melted. My partner is too nice to complain so I called and spoke with manager- who just said yeah that's not usually us sorry bout that but thanks for the info. They also managed to get the order wrong- two of our "pick four shrimp" they gave us the wrong shrimp. Beware doing curbside- while the wait staff may be great the take out, front podium staff is anything but. read more

Haven't eaten at a Red Lobster in 15 years! Came because we received a gift card to eat here from a friend. Came at 4pm on a Saturday and the restaurant was pretty empty. Host showed us to our table, gave us menus and then we waited at least 10 minutes for our server to show up. Ordered the crab queso dip for the appetizer and this was our favorite thing we tried! Dip had a generous portion of crab and we polished it off! I ordered the "Lobster Lovers Duo" and it came with two lobster tales. One was cooked traditionally and the other was supposed to be Cajun or something but I couldn't tell what exactly they were trying to do with the seasonings and just dipped it in the melted butter (pretty hard to mess up lobster!). I paid extra for "premium sides" and got the crispy Brussel sprouts and the bacon Mac n cheese. The two sides were actually pretty good. Wifey wanted a salad and got the Caesar salad with grilled chicken. She was pretty happy with it. Server was not on his game. Rarely came by and had to go find him to pay the bill (still gave him a good tip though). Wasn't a bad meal there are just FAR BETTER places to go for seafood and I like to support the locally owned non-chain restaurants. read more

Came in on a Tuesday. Seated and then ignored for about 15 minutes...waiter arrives and asked if we would like "water'..how about we would like to order a drink? We also put un an order for an appetizer. That only took 5 minutes (best part of the meal. Order 2 meals and bother were over cooked. Lobster was smashed in to the shell and the attempt to eat it without bits of shell in my mouth was impossible. Shrimp scampi was literally overcooked shrimps floating (submerged) in butter. This meal was NOT worth the time waiting on the $ spent. I asked to speak to a manager to explain my disappointment and was told by the arrogant and less than helpful waiter "The manager is on a smoke break".... WHAT? Seriously why would you say that? I will NOT BE BACK! Lobster Tail Shrimp Scampi Coconut Shrimp read more

I was in town visiting my mom and she really wanted to go to Red Lobster!!! I was trying to determine whether this was a 3 or 4 star review, but our waiter provided excellent service so I went with 4. Upon arriving on a Saturday evening, with social distancing in full effect, our wait was about 35 minutes. When we got in, the place was very clean. Our waiter was right there ready to go. I went with the salmon dinner with a side of lobster. I figured, when was the last time I had lobster?? The lobster was good, but didn't look anything like the picture, a lot smaller. The salmon was cooked perfectly, I did wish they had steamed my broccoli a little more, but still no complaints. Overall it was a good experience with great service!! read more

I grew up going to Red Lobster in the 1990s. The food used to be delicious back then. I used to go at least once or twice a years until about 5 years ago when I finally was fed up with the poor quality after a few visits in a row. I hadn't been for 5 years until today. The Endless Shrimp ad popped up in my FB feed so we decided to give it a try again. We were pleasantly surprised. I thought for sure we'd get several refills of shrimp but to my surprise we only ordered 1 refill as the shrimps were big and portions huge. We couldnt even finish our meal the portions were so big. Very delicious, hot shrimp. Soda and ice tea were great too. The calamari appetiter was like it was back in the day - crispy and cooked perfect. Biscuits good as always. If you thought Red Lobster has gone down hill in the past decade, give it another try with their Endless Shrimp. You'll be amazed they have redeemed themselves with shrimp quality. I forgot to take pics except for the appetizer. Con - they no longer serve a Caesar salad or garden salad with your meal. I was bummed out as they used to have the best side Caesar salad. Bring back the salads! read more

Horrible service - waited over an hour and still didn't get our order .. without any proactive indication or apology from the server or manager of the delay. Finally had to cancel after 2pm and find lunch elsewhere. Do not go here if you value your time and want to have a good sit down meal experience. Would give zero stars if that was an option read more

I love Red Lobster food!!! Part of that food is the tartar sauce! The tartar sauce they have had for years is so awesome!!! Well, tonight my birthday dinner was ruined because they changed the tartar sauce!!! This new stuff they are passing off as tatar sauce is CRAP!!! It tastes like vinegar, straight vinegar!! I won't be going back there for a very long time!!! read more

My husband and I are sitting here as I type this ‍ we ordered the crab queso which was nice hot and good, the biscuits piping hot and good. The crab legs was like Temu lmao what I order versus what I got The picture shows heavily seasoned crab legs the plate that came to the table was like shredded Parmesan cheese thrown on top of unseasoned legs that look like they came straight from the sea! I did not take 1 bite! Sent them straight back to the kitchen and so not plan on going back!Shame on Red Lobster/ Temu . Update the waitress just gave us our check never asked if we needed anything else and the manager walked past looked past is but asked if everything was ok with the other tables smh ‍ The fact that they only respond to positive reviews show you all you need to know about this garbage pail restaurant read more

first of all... it took us 15 minutes to get seated and it wasn't even busy! they sat us all in one corner which I wouldn't have much of a problem with if there screaming kids running around jumping on seats. then it took us 20 more minutes to get our actual waiter. we ordered our food just for it to be cold and honestly disgusting. my brother got sick while eating the food and at this point we had had enough. We still stayed but we only ordered three plates and it was over $120. for this amount of money I would expect better quality food. although the waiters were sweet it took way to long just to get not very good food. THEY CHARGED US FOR REFILLS WITHOUT A WARNING! by the way everyone around us got their food first but we had ordered our food before them?! It also took half an hour to get our food. read more

Used to love red lobster. Since COVID menu revamp, they just been going down hill. Yes the amounts were good but the food was delicious as pictured. I ordered their new dragon shrimp to go.

I DoorDashed from them. Horrible. My first dasher showed up and they told him someone else took the order. My order was cancelled. I reordered. 2nd dasher showed up and told her someone else picked up the order. She thankfully didn't accept that and I finally got my order 2 hours later........ I will never DD from them again. Finally get my food.. ummm.... Finally get the Cajun chicken Alfredo linguine. I didn't get any Alfredo sauce. I got dry noodles and a bit of chicken. It was also in an appetizer size container dish, yes. If I were to get this amount on a plate in person I would walk out. Do not DD from them. read more

Went for a Sunday lunch at noon, there were only a few people dining at that time. Our server was Danielle, very sweet and attentive. Must say the booths with the non-adjustable table a bit tight for anyone larger or being big busted. The picture on the wall next to us had icky smears on it likely from kids. We both ordered the endless shrimp special. For not being busy not sure why it took so long for everything we ordered. A good 1/2 hr. for entrees. I added a green salad which was good, hubby got fries ( skimpy portion). I had recalled how good the coconut shrimp were years ago so I had to try again, along w/shrimp linguine. Hubby got coconut and scampi. The first batch coconut shrimp needed just a few more seconds in fryer, it was ok but just barely crispy. The second batch overly crispy, hard on edges. The scampi, although small shrimp, it was generous portion w/tasty garlicky butter. My linguine pasta was good but just had a spoonful of sauce on center-top, needed more but hubby gave me some garlic butter sauce. Biscuits yummy as always. Coconut shrimp wasn't what it used to be, these were pounded out too thin, no meatiness to them. Glad I asked for the sweet spicy chili sauce, hot but really good with the coconut shrimp. All in all a decent meal and fair value. read more

Second time trying this place in the last 3 months-not by choice but birthday diner. Worst service I've ever experienced. Chedder Bay Biscuits- never seen them, ordered sodas, teas, waters: couldn't get them refilled - not even once. 14 people, 4 separate deliveries of food, 1st was 1 persons food. They finished before the next plates came out. The last bring out, was for 5 members of my family, almost everyone else at this point was finished. Also that last order, they didn't even bring complete plates, had to what for fries. The food, yeah wasnt good. Go somewhere else, horrible place read more

We went to this Red Lobster today with the family. (Party of 7) We usually go to the one in Olympia but we were visiting my parents in Tacoma. The food was great as always but we received the best service we've ever gotten at a red lobster in a long time. Autumn was friendly, kind, thoughtful and attentive without smothering us. She stayed on top of our drinks and the food was prompt and delicious. (Team effort with the kitchen.) I've never taken the time to review a Red Lobster but she deserves a shoutout! Autumn, if you happen to read this, your act of kindness today was very much appreciated and those slices of cake were so much more than just dessert. Thank you!! read more

I eat at all of Red Lobster with a meal Togo and it is always good the Lobster is always on point.

So Tristan is the bloke I'm reviewing. The restaurant itself is perfectly fine, but they need to fire this person. Now I normally wouldn't advocate for the firing of anyone. I try to give them multiple tries to figure things out. This bloke couldn't do so. So here we go. I ordered the grilled lobster, salmon and shrimp plate from Uber eats. During the entire time I was was waiting, at no point did the restaurant inform me they did not have salmon. My driver arrives only to be told this information. He then has to contact me and ask me if I would like either steak or trout. I chose trout, but also asked if there was compensation as that was obviously not what I ordered. I knew the compensation couldn't be more than a few dollars, but it's the principal innit? The manager tells me there is compensation, but I have to seek it through uber eats as they don't feel comfortable providing it to the driver. Now we are only talking about a voucher worth a few dollars one way or the other. So i say, if you trust him to deliver the food, why not the voucher. To which he can only say he just doesn't trust them and it's not up to Red Lobster standard. I ask him about the standard and he says it doesn't really have anything to do with that, under no circumstances would be provide the voucher to my driver because he feels "uncomfortable." So I think to myself, fair enough. Then how about you just skip the voucher in with the food and seal it up. Driver doesn't have to know, if you trust him to deliver the food, the voucher will be with the food we are all good yeah? To which he responds by telling me I'm not listening, he has a business to run and then hangs up. Now then. As I said, I did not curse. I provided many logical alternatives and even asked about the policy and why he didn't trust the driver, even if the driver had no clue the voucher was included amongst the food. Bloke hangs up on me and tells me to contact the manager in the morning. As I said. I normally don't say someone should be fired. However if this is how this bloke handled things, they should ar the very least be demoted. Absolutely abysmal customer service top to bottom. read more

I haven't been a fan of Red Lobsters in the past - mainly because we live in the PNW where fresh seafood is available almost everywhere, so why go to a national chain? BUT this was our second visit to this location and I have to say - it has been a GREAT experience both time! The staff is super friendly and knowledgable, food was cooked promptly and tasted great, tables were being cleaned and turned over quickly - this location clearly has great management! My husband and I both got the "you pick two" shrimp dinner. The shrimp were cooked perfectly and not overdone. Our waitress was attentive and the entire staff was thanking us for coming in as we left. We'll be back! read more
