Red Lobster

This is a fancy restaurant...... If you look at the expensive prices!  Haha sorry but I haven't been to a red lobster since I was little.  When I was little it seemed like a big deal to go there but now it just is not that good especially for the price.  

We got there and waited at the bar because there was a wait.  Apparently the bartender wasn't happy with her co-worker bc we got to hear her complain to her other co-worker about him...not ideal but whatever.  Drinks were very expensive like $6 a drink, FYI we are not downtown...

We then were seated.  The highlight of the restaurant was def our waitress Carrie.  Very nice very helpful.  Well done Carrie!

We ordered food, first was Caesar salad Cesar dressing soup with salad in it...then our seafood, lots of butter, some seafood, and a high price.  Not ideal.  Food was average at best.  

Overall poor food for the price.  Drinks were overpriced.  I'm not one to complain but the only thing good here is Carrie our waitress.  Go butter heaven!

Well... we started off the evening sitting at the bar waiting for a table (normal) and the bartender was complaining about another employee and how he should get fired (not so normal, yet entertaining). The house merlot costs as much as a bottle of merlot (overpriced). Our server, Carrie, was awesome. Super nice and accommodating for my gluten free needs. The experience would have been better if I didn't have to sort through a 3 ring binder of janky paper to find what is and is not gluten free. The food was covered in butter, but I loved it and what is what I expected. If people expect to come to Red Lobster and not have their food covered in butter that is on them, they shouldn't complain, it's inevitable.

Red Lobster is not especially good but I like to go once in awhile during their Shrimpfest. The shrimp is a bit salty and not very flavorful (that is, the shrimp tastes more like butter or breading, not shrimp) but hey, sometimes it's fun to eat a ton of shrimp.

This particular Red Lobster is fine. The staff is fairly friendly and the building seems clean and well-maintained. Service was a bit slow but we were there on a busy night so I don't hold that against them. Parking is ample.
