My wife and I went here on a Friday for date night, we both had the steak and lobster w/broccoli and mashed potatoes relatively fast service, good meal but wish the steak was a bit bigger, and lobster was a little tough but otherwise a good meal. read more

Red Lobster - Steak and lobster w/broccoli and mashed potatoes. - Seafood Near Me - Kelso, Washington

Came in with family to have a little midweek get together. The quality of the food was average, the hostess was super nice, and the wait for our dinners was close to 30 mins. The wait wasn't the biggest deal since we were talking, but for some reason our waitress became increasingly rude for no apparent reason. I'm not sure if she was having a bad day, or we were interrupting her break, but it'll be a while before I ever think about going back. We didn't have any special orders, the place wasn't very busy, and it's not like we made a mess. All we did was order food, wait a long time, eat, and ask for to-go containers. If you end up at Red Lobster on a Wednesday, I really hope you get a different waitress, or that waitress doesn't take her bad day out on you. There are plenty of places to eat in the same price range where you don't have to deal with that. I can't say if our waitress is bad at her job and grumpy with customers all the time, but she sure was that night. read more

the shrimp have gotten so small, and for that price, take the tails off popcorn shrimp. $50 for two skimpy dinners, not even a salad, and only 3 biscuits, not 4! allyou can eat shrimp, $30? thats a lot of shrimp. small ones too! brought out 6 at a time. i didn't take that offer. we went before dinner rush and service was still slow. biscuits were slightly doughey. our waitress was great, but i watched her get treated second class by other waitresses. terribly rude behavior. the food itself was only of average taste, nothing noteable. just overall i felt ripped off. my last visit. read more

Came in around 4pm on a Friday and got seated immediately. The front hostess was not the friendliest and did not greet me with a smile nor ask how my day was like typically hostess do. My waitress was phenomenal and very bubbly. I got the surf and turf which was a little disappointing for the price that they charge. My broccoli was very much overcooked the mashed potatoes, lack flavor. In my opinion the steak was cooked very well however, there wasn't a lot of seasoning on it compared to what I'm used to the lobster was great. I really liked the way the inside looked. Everything was very clean and orderly read more

I took my parents out to eat. I'm vegetarian so the options are slim, but I found a baked potato and broccoli. Food came and I was looking at the broccoli. It was definitely not fresh, the stems were starting to turn brown. I was looking at it closer to decide if I could actually eat it and... there was a hair in it. Our server was very nice, but the kitchen staff is obviously, um. Gross on a few fronts. Don't serve me old food, and wear a hair net. Never again. read more

Alright, so who doesn't love great surf and turf?! The wife and i absolutely love this place and decided to go on our anniversary (yes I spoil the wife and she is a big foodie just like me) We always love ordering the cheddar biscuits (of course!!!) and she mostly goes for the lobster and I, the steak. That night the dining room wasn't too packed so it was perfect for an anniversary dinner. Service was superb and our server made us feel like we were the only ones present. Drinks overflowed, our stomachs were full and there was love in the air. Need I say more???? Ten outta Ten all day! read more

Experience didn't begin great, but it got turned around quickly (came into restaurant with no one at reception desk and waited more than 5 minutes to be recognized by someone, who then sat us quickly.) Had the daily special- steak and lobster tail) and everything was prepared perfectly and was fresh and delicious. Took a bit longer than I had expected to get our food but assume steak and lobster takes a bit longer than most other lunch orders. Very pleasant and accurate server. read more

What a wonderful way to spend Christmas. I'm glad that Red Lobster was open for Christmas this year. The food was great. I had the Ultimate Feast, 4 entrees and 2 sides and it was spot on. The staff was spot on, checked on us regularly, no up charges for it being a holiday. Was not overly crowded, nice and quiet. I would definitely recommend your holiday dinner here. read more

Red Lobster - Ultimate Feast. - Seafood Near Me - Kelso, Washington

Only one star because the salad and biscuits were good. Ick on all the rest, potato hard in the middle, grilled asparagus was gross, waited an hour for food. There were only two of us. Will never eat here again! Also, it's winter, TURN ON THE HEAT!!! read more

Ordered today may 12, 2025 for the curbside To go, they texted me that the order would be ready at 4:22pm. Arrived at 4:22 texted HERE they reply someone will be out shortly. After waiting until 4:35 pm went in yo ask and they have no idea I even ordered. Waited another 10 minutes before getting my food. When I got home I was missing part of my order, so I called the restaurant asked to speak to a manager was put on hold and then hung up on. Will never eat there again they lost a good customer. read more

I love to come to Red Lobster. Most every server is terrific in Customer Service, however today that is not true. A Jessica L .was our server. It was very unpleasant. My reaction was that she would rather have been anywhere else, doing anything else that waiting on tables. No interaction of any kind. Did not stay at the table long enough to find out if there was anything else needed. Her over all attitude was so lacking. Her lack of friendliness and concern needs serious change. I hope she can adjust this for herself. read more

Stopped in on a Friday night around 6. It was a 30 min. wait, but had the option to leave a number so just went and walked around Target until we got the text. It was busy, but the server was attentive, had a great attitude, and kept the drinks full. Food was delicious and we had a great time. read more

Red Lobster - Snow crab, 7oz. Steak, shrimp linguini Alfredo, coconut shrimp, mashed potatoes - Seafood Near Me - Kelso, Washington

Just had dinner on a Tuesday night. Excellent service and steak done to perfection. Pretty sad when you have to go to your local seafood restaurant to get the best steak in town. And Walts shrimp never let's me down read more

Hubby and I spent $50 a plate. Biscuits were undercooked, had to ASK for the butter, REALY!? The largest of the two lobster tails on my plate was overcooked and they were NOT hot. Hubby's snow crab, overcooked and meat was stuck to inside of shells AND he ordered an extra half pound. And had to pay to order sides. Crab covered asparagus was $8.49. Extremely disappointing. It was a special night and I would have rather choked down Taco Bell than go here. Only nice thing about the meal was our waitress, Maria, hence the 20% tip. Not her fault the food sucked. She's the only reason we give 2 stars. read more

The server was amazing and the food and wine were great! It was during crab fest too so there were even more choices. Aside from the price for 2 of us (which is known when go to red lobster), it was great. read more

As a Child we loved this place. The cheese rolls were a family staple. Now going back 15 years later i'm not quite sure. My steak was chewy and the salad was not fresh. Price isn't horrible but if i'm going to spend the money i'd definitely go else where. The only reason i'd leave this at 3 stars is because of the all you can eat shrimp but i believe that's been discontinued. I might give it another shot with their new ceo, he seems to be making some great changes. Until he personally invites me I think my days at the red lobsters are at an end. read more

Tonight was supposed to be a fun night out with the family with some good food, you'd think the food would be amazing for the price that they're making you pay for it. Well that was a very wrong assumption I made. The food was cold, the clam chowder, the cheeseburgers, the loaded potato, no lobster on the loaded potato, overcooked shrimp, countless items of food were forgotten, I would not recommend eating here. You're way better off going to Applebees right across the bridge, the service is way faster, accurate and kinder. Don't waste your money here, especially in the economy. read more

Finally red lobster you are back on track. For a long time when my hubby wanted to go to any of your restaurants I try to avoided it. Why? I do not East seafood and very very less fish so it was never fun for me. And that was different a few years ago. At that time you at least had one menu item that was chicken with mashed potatoes and it was Wally good. But then you took it of the menu. Not having something that wasn't seafood or fish did not speak to me. But this time I wanted my hubby to finally enjoy your seafood again and I'll said well I'll will go with fish and chips that's something I can live with and you get your lobster feast. And then - a new totally redesigned menu! With lots of chicken options. I clumsy even decide. And (wo) man I missed the biscuits! So I am so happy that we tried it. Service at this location (Mary) was really outstanding and food was delicious!!! read more

I was very happy with the service and the food. We brought a large group with us and our server was on point throughout the meal. She was patient with the little kids and even helped the m order. It has been some time since I had been to a Red Lobster but the place did not disappoint. The cheese biscuits were just as wonderful as I remembered. I tried a new dish and it was fantastic. I will definitely come back. ...... .................... ..................... read more

Food, service, ambiance were all great. But I wasn't thrilled with how much they charge for liquor. They charge $13.25 for a glass of Mark West pinot noir. A bottle usually runs for $14 at any retailer. Total buzz kill when the check comes. I would make the argument that if you can afford to put a computer at every table, you can afford to put a drink menu. It's a sneaky thing to do, to up charge that much without warning. read more

The food has been good every time I come here. The dining room could use updating. The bathrooms were clean. (I feel that you can really judge a restaurant by how clean they keep their bathrooms). The servers were nice and the food came out in a timely fashion. I like the fact that you can order both types of lobster to compare what kind you like better. I have to admit I like both the rock and Maine lobster. read more

This place is an amazing upgrade from our Red Lobster in the Portland area. We stopped in here on our way from Seattle to Portland for our daughter's birthday dinner. We were seated immediately at a booth. Our server introduced herself and took our drink orders to give us time to decide on food. After placing our orders we received our favorite biscuits and shortly after that received our soups and salads. Everything was very good. Salads were fresh and crisp and the clam chowder was hot. When our dinners arrived we were all served at one time which was great!! That doesn't always happen for us since we generally have 4-7 in our party. The food was all prepared great and tasted even better. The fried shrimps were crisp and not greasy. The pasta was nicely cooked and the salmon and lobster were cooked perfectly. Our server and the manager were really great when I had a small issue with my pasta. All of the staff here were really great and very friendly. The restaurant itself was clean and comfortable. If you want good seafood and great service this is the place to eat. We'll be back the next time we're in town. read more

Second choice, but it paid off... excellent service, clean and we stopped during lobster fest. Several lobster options at reasonable prices and very good flavor. There really isn't a lot of dining options in the area and it's nice to know Red Lobster offers a great menu. read more

This Red Lobster restaurant in Kelso, is supposed to sell seafood and we arrived with our family for lunch, we placed our order and 25 minutes later we were told they had no fish for you. There was no concern to take care of the customer, or provide a solution or an excuse for not selling seafood in a seafood restaurant, we wanted to talk to the manager because of the poor service but we understood that the staff does not care about the customer, because the manager does not care about the customer either, he did not want to come out to serve us and just said he could not do anything. So before you go to this restaurant you should think about it. service is so bad, it's not worth paying what you pay at this place. Terrible customer service read more

Had my son's birthday dinner there last night with a party of 10, I had called day prior to make sure they could accommodate our large party. They had our table ready right on time and the staff was all very nice and even offered a free scoop of ice cream for my son's birthday. We opted out as we were all so full from dinner. Between all of us we ordered a little bit of everything and nobody had a single complaint! It did take about a little while to get our food but that's to be expected with a larger party. Overall will definitely be coming back and absolutely recommend! read more

Second time trying to eat here. They got worse. If you want the all you can eat shrimp beware! They are adding stipulations to the meal. You can only have the better choices of the shrimp on your first order. If you want the skewers for example, you can not get it more than once. If you don't order it on your first plate you can't get it at all. Such a rotten scam to bring in people and then deny them the popular choices. They have also raised the price to $27 from the originally advertised $20. That's over a 33% increase. The meal with the imposed restrictions is not worth it. I will not be returning. read more

It's been a bit over an hour now, since we arrived--- No food. Granted is a Friday night, and it is a moderately busy. Group of 5 all wanted Endless shrimp. Also cost of endless shrimp is now $27 per person. read more

Another visit to this location for their spectacular endless shrimp specials. It was lunch and the place wasn't packed. We were seated right away and our server, Jordan, was there with a smile. As usual the shrimp was delicious and we had plenty of it. We loved the new ginger shrimp which our server recommended. Our food was served hot and fast due to an excellent and very pleasant server. We will be back! read more

We ordered Wood-Grilled Lobster, Shrimp and Salmon. Price on Yelp says it is ~$30 which was not the case. This was nearly ~$40. Given that price tag, I felt the portion size was fairly small. I have heard great things about the red lobster biscuits, but I wasn't impressed. They tasted dry and plain! I really like the way staff treated us, seated us quickly and the service was super fast! Even check-out experience was mostly automated (you are presented a tablet which you can use & pay by yourself), and I loved it! read more

My husband and I love going there. It is cold in the building. So put a coat on. We had to wait for our food for a long time. We played the waiting game. I don't know if it is worth it. They are having a hard time finding people to work. No one wants to work. read more

I have eaten at Kelso Red Lobster for 23 years. We ate their on 6-26 and their food has gotten alot more expensive and they serve alot less food. I would not recommend them anymore! read more

Wow! I would've never thought I'd say this, the Red Lobster in Kelso is really good! We came here on a stopover. The service team was exceptionally friendly. Everyone greeted us with energy and warmth. You know you're in for a fun eating experience. We ordered Alfredo Linguine with shrimp and coconut shrimp with fries and cold slaw. Both were served quickly and ingredients were fresh. For wary travelers, fresh yummy food is always always welcomed! I think we just found one of our obligatory stops on our way down from seattle to oregon from now on! read more

Safe yourself 80 bucks and your time, and go to Burger King across the road. Took over 52 minutes to get our food. (2 meals.) Rice and mash potatoes were extremely bland. Shrimp was meh. Not impressed with neither service or the meal itself. Never will go to red lobster again. Worst meal experience I've had in a long time. read more

The food was the delicious and our server (Tessa) was amazing and made our day.also, there was no ink in our calamari when it got to our table and all of the staff was a delight to talk. read more

I haven't been to Red Lobster in years. The Biscuits are as good I I remember. I Ordered Fish and Chips and asked for Broccoli instead of Chips. The Broccoli tasted terrible and some of it was flowering and other were black. The coleslaw tasted like it had rotten apples in it. Cant tell how old this stuff was, but it should have been thrown out ..... The Cod was Wonderful and tasted out of this world. Wish they had NOT served it on Paper as some of the Cod Stuck to the paper and I'm not sure how much paper became part of my meal and there were big holes in the paper. Service was GOOD I will NOT be going back for a long time. read more

Red Lobster is expensive but as a date night place to go it's not bad. The service at this location was very good and everything came correctly and quickly. Obviously the cheddar biscuits are just some of the best things ever and that alone makes you wanna go back. Everything else is good, some very good, but not quite worth the price. With that being said though, it's good and I'm sure it won't be the last time I go back. read more

Have been eating here since I was a kid, good food, service speed is generally good. Prices have gotten higher within recent years though.

Food and drinks were great, it was clean, but the service wasn't good at all. Waited at the front desk to be seated for around 20 minutes without even being acknowledged by the the employee at the desk who had been standing there since before we walked in. Finally got seated by another employee that noticed us. When we came in there was only one other table with people already eating. The first waitress was friendly but told us the watermelon margaritas were on sale $5 each so we ordered 2 and we were charged $10 each. When we asked why they said it was martinis on sale instead. Our food and drinks took forever to arrive and tables that came in after we ordered were served before us. read more

Got in near closing staff was really nice and food came out quick and delicious would recommend pretty pricey though definitely not a regular place to dine out. read more

We were in Thursday Evening with a party for our family birthday celebrations at 7 pm. Susan was our server she was AMAZING!!! We appreciated her over the top ability to meet our every need. I wish I could say the same about the manager and host staff it seemed they could really care less about us. Thank goodness our server saved the mood. Keep her and make sure she knows what a gem she is. read more
