    Cheddar Biscuits
    Gg 4.

    Service was exceptional (Corey was very attentive and knowledgeable). Food was very good, and the restaurant was overall tidy and clean. With this new revamp on the menu, it was exciting to see some new menu items in addition to the classics. We really enjoyed ourselves and the overall ambience and food and of course service will be back.

    Unappetizing!!!!

    The service was great. No complaints there but I was very disappointed with the food. I spent $75 for 2 "lobster" one of which I had to return. It was so mushy. In general it had no flavor. The biscuits I used to love was so very dry. This was my very last visit to Red Lobster.

    We were seated @7:33 PM according to time stamp on photo .waited over half hour for drink orders to be taken. & served. Food orders taken roughly another half hour and served @ 9:33 PM.Management made excuses rather than apologize and gave a measly 10% discount for this poor service and cold food. we ended up taking to go boxes home to warm and eat. it was a good bye celebration for our Deceased Brother "s burial and going home to family members who had traveled from Calgary AB Canada. we had 11 people in attendance.

    Shrimp scampi so good.

    Omg I came here after driving all day and I was a little concerned because of the low rating they have. Pleasantly surprised!! The food was great and my server Nicole was absolutely fantastic. I will definitely be coming back to this location.

    Save your money and time! Go to Pineville. Gastonia location needs to close.I'm not sure where to start and then s is my 1st ever negative review. If I could give less than 1 star I would.Keep in mind I was a waitress at one time also. I do give a lot of leeway.First we sat for over 10 minutes for a water. Or any mention for our waitress Michelle. My husband ordered a whiskey and water.He received a glass with a shot of whiskey and a plastic cup of water and ice??? Not the waitress issue but apparently they don't have a bartender either?? We ordered our appetizer, 20 Min later our salads arrived, no appetizer. When the appetizer came. We had to ask for small plates.they never came. I ordered endless shrimp. When they brought the meal I asked for my second as service had already been super slow and I had planned on seconds being so as well.25 minutes later no endless shrimp.We had asked waitress for boxes at this point either. Yes I actually had a timer set in these things.25 minutes later no seconds, no boxes, no return from the waitress. Tables in other sections had come and gone numerous times.And it wasn't busy. Seriously 25 minutes in between her stops with us.Never received 2nd portion in my endless. We arrived at 4:30 left at 7:15. No endless meal even to take home. Did discuss with the so called manager, who did not supply her name, insincere apology, stated the waitress was having a bad night. We were a simple table of 3 , out for my mother in laws 84 by birthday.A memorable one for sure but not in a good way. As a nurse , former waitress, send your staff home if that bad and cover their shift .Management decisions.Management duties. Seriously , save your money and time.Beware a glass of wine was over 10 dollars. Not too brand wine either . Many tables in our area had complained about the same. Never have this issue in Pineville or any other red lobster location. They are not doing enough business to stay open and have inadequate management and staff. Close it down and put a functional business in there.Complaint lodged to corporate as well, not holding out much hope there either. This also our second time , same location and no endless refills received. This was our last.

    Crispy Brussels Sprouts

    One of my favorite restaurants of all times..the biscuits hit when they are hot tho..

    Horrible food. Soggy fake seafood, biscuits were ok. Crab legs were skinny and butter was rancid.

    Webb Custom Kitchen - Gastonia 10:45am Mothers Day…read more My son asked me where I wanted to go for Mother's Day. I had been to Webb a few times. I thought he would enjoy the theme, environment/vibe so that was my suggestion! Of course they didn't let us down lol! He was looking up the movie that was playing on the screen with Barbara Stanwick and a young Kirk Douglas. We loved the music they had playing as well so many memories wow what a throwback! We were seated upstairs and had a wonderful view of the screen, not to mention the activities in the kitchen down below. Really it's the best seat if you call for reservations! We ordered off of the brunch menu for main dishes, I told him he absolutely had to try a couple of the appetizers! We had fried green tomatoes, and the angry lobster to start. Both were absolutely wonderful and exactly what I expected so definitely consistent. We ordered two Benedict dishes. I got the crabcake Benedict and he got the eggs with ham. Everything was very good, but when it comes to crabcakes, I can't lie. Nothing compares to 131 main so the size of the Crabcakes - I was a bit disappointed. Don't get me wrong. They were fresh, but too thin and the flavor and texture were not to my personal preference. The crab kind of got lost in all the other ingredients. I would definitely try a different dish next time. I ordered a side of bacon, perfectly cooked and great flavor. Along with the side of their mac & cheese, which has always been a favorite. I love the combination of cheeses that they use. It's such a treat! Lastly, we had to have their Parmesan truffle fries. Again consistent, excellent! They are always busy so reservations are required versus recommended to be honest. But we parked for free across the street because we were there early. Sadly, neither one of us had room for dessert, but their desserts are so good and the helpings are huge. Maybe next time!

The whiting, deserving of an unequivocal five stars, showcased culinary prowess with a perfect fusion of seasoning and expert frying. A dish that resonates with aficionados of impeccably prepared, succulent fish. Delving into the wings, ordered with a mild flavor, proved to be a delectable experience in its own right. However, I dare say, a tad more crispiness would elevate them to unparalleled heights. As for the accompanying fries, they adhered to the archetype of standard restaurant fare, bereft of seasoning. A polite word of advice: summon the shakers of salt and pepper to awaken these unassuming spuds. Anticipation lingers in the air as my taste buds yearn to explore the depths of BTJ Wings' diverse menu. The culinary journey has just begun, and I eagerly await the next chapter of flavors that this establishment has to offer. #Gratuityadded  #CulinaryCritique #TasteMastery #BTJ #DiningDiaries  #FishFry #FoodieFinesse #SavorTheFlavors #EatsAndTreats #TastingNotes #CLTFoodie  #SatisfyingCravings #FlavorfulFinds #704Eats #GastoniaEats #GastoniaFlavors  #ExploreGastonia  #GastoniaFoodScene #GastoniaFoodie  #704Eats  #GastoniaFoodFinds #GastoniaEateries  #GastoniaFoodJourney #QCFinds #GastoniaFoodAdventures  #GastoniaGastronomy

Of the ten patrons inside when we arrived, they all seemed to know each other. Thankfully, this didn't sway us one way or the other. We sat near the door, and I asked the bartender to turn on the game, which she did. Turns out the game wasn't on that channel, but I didn't want to disturb her conversation with the locals. Our waitress mentioned she was fairly new. She was attentive but kept forgetting things. I ordered the "must-have" Bessemer City Buzzard on a Stick, which is about half of a chicken breast seasoned and baked on a stick. The chicken wasn't as dry as I expected, but it also lacked flavor, and I had to pay $1 for sweet chili sauce to dip it in (3/5). The corn nuggets were nice and hot, and I enjoyed them (5/5). Note: I saw a couple of references to "redneck" while visiting, and I would characterize this place as a local redneck hangout.
