Red Lobster

Red Lobster executives and regional manager please read. This restaurant should be the gold standard for all Red Lobsters. The cocktails were just right. The food came out fast, tasted amazing, and the presentation was picture perfect. The server was friendly, professional, moving with purpose, AND on top of that he was training a new hire. The server saw that my kids were obsessed with the biscuits and at the end of the meal he brought out two more in a to go bag. The manager was very busy but also made time to be friendly and check on the customers. I am very much looking forward to going back to this location. I hope you do what you can to reward the staff and keep them happy. Thank you to the Chesterfield staff and crew.

Early dinner on a Friday @4:30 p.m. No waiting for a table. I'll be honest Red Lobster isn't at the top of the list or really on it at, when we are trying to decide on a dinning location, but we happened to have received a gift card some time ago. So with somewhat low expectations, to Red Lobster we headed. We started with fried green beans and of course there was cheddar bay biscuits. Both being very pleasing, and hard to stop eating. My dining companion ordered the lobster pizza (from starter's menu) as her main course. It was dinner plate size, with a thin cracker crust. It was good, not sure if I would do it as a main course, but my companion was happy with it. I ordered the Baja shrimp bowl with a side of popcorn shrimp. I really love popcorn shrimp and could not get some. They were excellent. The Baja bowl was also really good. It had grilled shrimp, rice, cabbage, black beans, avocado, tortilla strips, sour cream, lime wedge and a spicy dressing. It is definitely something that I would get again. Overall we had a really good dinner.

We had a great time! The food was great, the drinks were great, and the service was great. We did not have to wait long at all to get seated.

Let me clarify my service rating had absolutely nothing to do with our waitress she was great! But I can't tell you how many times I watched the restaurant manager walk around while she waited too many tables at once and struggled to keep up. He should not be a manager if he's not willing to join his wait staff during such times. My husband has been a manufacturing manager and director of operations throughout his career. He spends very little time in his office because he has never forgotten his humble beginnings. The manager of this restaurant needs more training in teamwork and compassion. And our waitress should be promoted! She made the best of my mom's 91st birthday celebration that day.

Great deal. Lobster Tail & Steak for $20.99 on Wednesday's. Food was great. Got the Bahama Mama which was over the top good. Lemon vinaigrette for the salad was excellent. The place was exceptionally clean. Service was prompt. Random: the playlist for the music was strange.
