    My meal, minus some salad and a biscuit.
    John C.

    The restaurant is located right off major roads and has good parking. It's Red Lobster ambiance, token marine theme, clean, adequate in all respects, family and everyone friendly. My server was prompt, efficient, cordial and right on the edge of too attentive. I splurged with a self created platter. It came quickly, hot things hot, cold things cold. The biggest disappointment was that a side salad is now a "premium " side that you pay extra for. I know they are in financial trouble but that is chinchie and disappointing. The salad was good. If the scampi's sauce wasn't on the shrimp they would have tasted the same as the "grilled " shrimp. A charred wooden flat stick and a touch of char on the tail of each shrimp, but, just shrimp. Scampi was tame on the garlic. The lobster tails were cooked. The food was hot. The small baked potato was good. The biscuits good. It was a comfortably common seafood meal. But, they did what they do well here and it's why I went. Like most all chain restaurants it's not the place to go for a "WOW" factor meal.

    Crabs calamari

    I was very impressed and pleased with my dinner. My girls loved there crabs and calamari. I definitely will be back and the service was also very good.

    The ultimate feast

    Came here for a birthday celebration, and although it was an okay dinner, nothing really over the top to write home about. The place was clean and not busy on a Wednesday night. Our server was attentive. Our food was okay, but portions such as the lobster dip appetizer and the clam chowder soup are much smaller than they used to be. Call it inflation, sure.

    Crunch fried flounder
    Jp B.

    I was taking care of an errand in the neighborhood so ran in mid-afternoon to this Red Lobster. I have to say the fish was very fresh. I just had the crunch fried flounder, pretty ordinary order; it was very good, extremely fresh and tasty, mild and crunchy. I was happy with that. I had a baked potato, it also was very fresh and tasty, on the small side... not tiny, but not as big as you'd like a restaurant baked potato to be, but very good. The first try at Cheddar Bay Bicuits was good but not great. But my server made it right and brought out some that were the usual off the scale fantastic. My salad was fine, but it didn't seem right that for a meal that comes with two sides they charge $2.49 extra substitute a salad for one of the sides... that just seemed kind of nitpicky nickel and dimey. My server was very attentive and efficient and accurate. Not too bad an experience for three in the afternoon.

    Fisherman's platter maybe?

    I don't go here often as I'm hooked on PAPPADEAUXS but I can say that RED LOBSTER revamped their menu, cooking techniques, freshness of the food, and flavor profile. The calamari was different from the last time I had been here decades ago when they had smaller calamari and a whole bunch of mixed and fried veggies intertwined with the calamari. Their new incarnation was very good with the hot chili peppers being a nice twist. Whatever platter I ordered was good as well but the small shrimp seemed like they were Kroger brand, or Gortons or Van De Kamps out of the frozen food section. My spot PAPPADEAUXS would never take a short cut like this but in now way would I further try to compare these two restaurants as it would be an apple to oranges comparison. Two meals during lunch, a kids meal, two cocktails, and an appetizer before tip was over $100. I wasn't looking to spend that much for lunch but whatever, everything was good. If you go I recommend you using a coupon or special or something to keep the costs down. We're doing okay but not ballin outta control to be paying for $100 dollar lunches at RED LOBSTER of all places. I'd rather spend that at PAPPADEAUXS or locally at Jeff Ruby or THE TOP in Bexley.

    Is there anything better than Cheddar Bay Biscuits?

    We decided to hit up Red Lobster for dinner tonight while we still have one. Our server was spectacular. En route to the restaurant we discussed our concerns about the service since Red is going through some issues. No worries at Georgesville Rd. Our waitress and the others we could hear around us were top notch. We both got the Tuesday Special - one pound of snow crab legs, crispy potatoes, and a side of your choice for $20. A great bargain. You can get the crab legs steamed or doused in garlic butter. We got them with the garlic butter on the side, not sure why they aren't served that way. The crispy potatoes were very good. We both got broccoli which was lightly seasoned and perfectly cooked. I wasn't really sure what a pound of crab legs would look like, but no worries. There were plenty to keep us busy and fill us up. I have to say, I am rather diligent when it comes to getting every last morsel that crab legs have to offer. They were so, so good. I have to add that Cheddar Bay Biscuits RULE! They were as good as ever. I hope Red continues to operate this location so we never have to again worry about the availability of Cheddar Bays or the crab legs special. I felt we had a delicious and filling dinner (I took my potatoes home. There were so many) at a reasonable price, with absolutely impeccable service. We need to drop Red Lobster back into our night out rotation. Notes: We were seated at the first booth right inside the door, so we could not see how busy or how tidy the restaurant was. Our table and immediate area were clean. We didn't use the restrooms, so we can't comment. Also, we were too full for dessert, so no review there either. Head on over to Red Lobster while Corporate works on getting their act together. Help keep Red going. They're working hard for us at the Georgesville Rd location. We haven't been there for quite a while because our previous few tries were really rather Meh. Not anymore. Glad we gave them another try.

    It is always a great time to go to Red Lobster, but especially for endless shrimp. The service was great, of course I went earlier in the day so it was not busy. I tried all the different kinds that they offered. I ordered the Brussel sprouts for my side, this is a must have because the sauce is so good. It's nice that they let you take your left overs home. Everything was very good and tasty.

    Lobster, Shrimp, and Salmon.   Ny Strip, potato, and rice.
    Kerstin M.

    Our food and service was amazing! Our waitress Sheila was super patient with us, informative, and kind. The food was surprisingly very good. I had my doubts about quality, because it was nearing the end of the day, but I was impressed. My husband is also allergic to shellfish, but loves the biscuits here. I was nervous because for this reason, but the kitchen made sure his food was cooked separately and everything was okay. Thank you Red Lobster for the wonderful evening. My order: Lobster, shrimp, and Salmon with baked potato. Other order: NY Stip Steak, rice, and baked potato.

    Salad bowl is chilled. None of those onions on salad and extra french dressing. Diet Coke or course.

I also ordered a water because it was rather warm. I gathered my lunch walked over to a picnic table, nearby and sat down to eat. My first bite into the sandwich or roll as they label them was literally a shock to my memory, it took me back to being in Maine many years ago and getting a lobster roll at a restaurant. Now I know my memory is not what it used to be, but I can honestly say this was a freaking delicious lobster roll. I ate the entire roll, wiped my face with a napkin at the table. And went up and told the server behind the counter how good the food was and that I can't wait to literally find them close by again. I will admit, I did not eat all the potato chips, because I didn't need them, but they were also good. I just read on Facebook where they're going to be in Westchester on July 20 now I need to find out where because that's literally five minutes from my house. I truly cannot wait to order another lobster roll or two. If you've never eaten at this food truck, I highly recommend it. On the day I purchased my role. It was $29 which a lot of people might think is a lot of money literally for a sandwich, but I will tell you this it is truly worth it.

    Have been here three times and every time it was wonderful. It's a standard hot pot/KBBQ set up…read morebut it's in the old O'Charley's building so it's nice that there are 'sections' so it doesn't feel over crowded. It's clean and the decor is very nice. I prefer this set up where everyone gets their own pot instead of sharing with the table like some older hot pot styles. My only complaint is that the controls are not on top of the table so if get a smaller table then it's a little tight to change the temperature and you can knock the controller off the place where it's stuck by magnet. Not a big deal because the controller is movable and it's only an issue on a of couple tables. The quality is really good and most of the options are what you would see at other hot pot locations. There is a little more of a Chinese flair as far as sauces and particularly in the flavor of the kalbi. The bar is clean and well stocked which I appreciate. The items on the bar were not the same at each visit but each time fruit, dessert, seaweed salad, and kimchi were included. You have to order with the server, but the best part of this place is the service! The employees are friendly and very attentive. We will definitely be back!

Most bbq places I've been to make you smell like the food you are cooking, but this place has great vents and I didn't smell like smoked meat at all! It was great. They have a nice selection of meats, and veggies! We opted to try their bbq + hot pot combo and for two people it was really difficult to finish all of our food. Unless you can eat a lot, be weary of ordering both since they do charge you $13 if you have a lot of food left over. I was not a big fan of the hot pot, but I think I ordered the wrong broth and didn't know what sauces to add to make it taste better. Their bbq was delicious and it was so fun to make sauces to dip our meats in before cooking. If you do go make sure you look up what sauces they have beforehand so you can have a better idea of what to expect and make concoctions that you will enjoy. Lastly we really enjoyed their strawberry lemonade and siji bubble tea! This place was not cheap but I would go back for a celebration with a larger group!

All very impressive. Not too busy on Friday at 11:30 am but it got busier. Service for drinks was very attentive but almost everyone i saw just got water. I asked about Japanese drinks and the waiter said we go to the front and grab those out of a fridge. On to the food. I started with the sushi of which there was a very large selection of both sashimi and sushi rolls, including several different toppings. I was bitterly disappointed that the taste of the sushi was not good. In fact, I could not even eat it except for the fried items which were good, although not really hot. I'm a little embarrassed to say that I did stuff a couple pieces of sushi in a napkin so that it didn't look so wasteful but really I could not eat it. Unfortunately this was my daughter's first time trying sushi so still not sure if she likes it. Onto the other hot dishes, the Asian food such as general Tso chicken, chicken with mushrooms, and beef with peppers was all very good. However, the fried rice just had some color and onion in it, no egg, no carrots, no peas. And the noodles were very basic but edible. The spring roll was very mushy again could not finish that. At this point, I was kind of over trying to find things that I liked and decided to end with some ice cream. There were just little cups of ice cream three different flavors and this was honestly the best part of my meal. My daughter tried three little cakes and she said they were excellent. I'm not sure about the salads and the fried American foods they had but overall I would just say the quality wasn't something I would go back for. There were people that had been there before, seemed like regulars and even had reward card to punch so maybe certain palletes enjoy it. I do think that the Asian protein dishes were the best part for me but not worth a return trip.
