The Ultimate. Everything was good for the most. Lobster was a little over cooked but no issue.

The service began slow. Although as time went on service got better with verbal encouragement. Comparing this visit to the last visit. I would like to go back in time. Over all food was 7.5 and service was a flighty 3. House keeping is openly displayed in the depictions associated. Don't totally discredit these individuals, they have gotten better than they were a year ago. Managers should focus of positive reinforcement and reward with plenty of praise when your team is kicking ass.

ultimate feast

Had a fantastic mother's day. The food was fantastic and the staff was great. Our waitress went above and beyond when my crab legs didn't have much meat in them. So much better than my last Red Lobster experience. I look forward to coming back!

I have never received such slow service and cold food in my life. The fact that the manager said it was at the window and went as soon as the food was ready is a lie. It may have set at the hot plate for a while but the food was stone cold. For my first visit this is damning and won't return here in the future. Edit: New food came after complaining to manager and food was still cold. It was clear when the chicken and broccoli was hot and the pasta was not that it was microwaved and not made fresh

Underwhelming, and overpriced. Paid for a 30 dollar meal and received poor quality and quantity. The sweet potatoes are closer to baby food than any other food I've seen. The steak was bland, and lobster (the flagship namesake) wasn't anything worth mentioning. I wouldn't bother going here, and find yourself another spot to spend your money.

I got free chocolate cake by using the Red Lobster app.  It was so good!   Background is remains of a salmon meal.

We enjoy Red Lobster since it is handicap accessible. We like the atmosphere and the food is really good also. It is easy to get a wheelchair inside and get seated. On our visit in May, 2022 to the Lynchburg location, alll of he wait staff was very friendly and helpful. I have the Red Lobster app and I get free offers and discounts. On this visit, I got 1 free piece of cake. It was awesome! My waitress helped me with the app. She checked on us often. The guy at the door was very nice to help us outside when I was pushing wheelchair. We had a great time.

Dirty dishes that were not cleared until dessert.

We had the opportunity to enjoy Easter brunch here, and it delivered the kind of experience you…read morehope for on a holiday morning. The atmosphere struck the right balance. Upscale without being stiff, comfortable without losing that polished feel. I ordered the jambalaya, and it was a standout. Well layered flavor, not overly heavy, with a nice balance of spice and richness. The proteins were cooked properly and the vegetables still had structure, which matters in a dish like that. It felt intentional, not just thrown together for a brunch menu. Across the table, the Eggs Benedict was equally strong. The hollandaise was smooth and properly seasoned, not overly lemony or thick, and the eggs were cooked right where they should be. That is often where places miss, but this one didn't. Dessert was where things really elevated. The strawberry cheesecake was clean, bright, and not overly sweet, with a good texture that held together without being dense. The chocolate Rasberry glutin-free dessert torte, was rich in the right way. Deep chocolate flavor without crossing into heavy or overwhelming. Service was attentive without hovering, and timing between courses was well paced, which is not easy on a busy holiday like Easter. Overall, this is a place that clearly pays attention to execution. Not just presentation, but flavor, balance, and consistency. That is what separates a good brunch from one you remember. We will be back.

Went for a dinner with another couple and had a reservation. Restaurant was sparsely populated…read moreand we sat for a very long time before being greeted by our server (so long that we went back and asked the hostess who our server was). Server wasn't much help and said she was new. Service was slow and embarrassingly bad. Our food was subpar and nothing to write home about (we didn't even take photos) - the best bite was the Thai Chili sauce Brussels. 3 out of 4 at our table had a that a veg side and everyone liked them! My wife had a the filet, which wasn't very tender. We came for dinner based on advertisement of a James Beard award winning chef. We've been to many restaurants (not in LYH) that have a James Beard award winning chef- don't be fooled this one wasn't!!!

It's next to a small playground and new amphitheater, so I'm sure this place gets quite busy on weekends.

So there were a few good things and a few things that to be improved…read more Pros - It's in a great location. Terrific ambiance. We got seated much more quickly than we thought. One person in our party said her salad had the best dressing she's ever had. The fried pickles were good. The shrimp was good. One bartender was good. Cons - We walked in and basically weren't sure what to do. There was a woman at we thought was a hostess stand, but she never said anything to us. We finally asked if we needed to check in with her to get seated. We did. But it was kind of weird. One bartender was awful. Never made eye contact. Wouldn't take any orders. Acted like she wanted to be anywhere else. I thought the Caesar salad was ok. It came with lacquered salmon. I would have loved the salmon, but not lacquered. It couldn't be made to order. Ok fine. I ordered it the way it was described. There was nothing lacquered about that salmon. It also was shredded on top of the salad and was maybe two ounces. That's ridiculous. Our server wasn't very helpful and not very attentive. I'm sure many people have had great experiences there, but I'm not sure I would take the time to go back.

Amazing! More than I could ever ask for. First, amazing…read morestaff! I went in bright and early 6:45am. I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH. Get the CINNAMON RAISIN PANCAKES, while you still can. Perfect crust! So cinnamon-y sweet I ate the whole thing without syrup! Soft scrambled eggs were like heaven. Pork sausage links were so juicy. The grilled potato's so, so good, paired with the sausage it was the perfect amount of salt. I also got a side of sautéed mushrooms, you cannot go wrong with that combo if you love all of these things. The chef really cares for his craft. The vibe of the Acorn Hill Lodge And Bistro is absolutely adorable. Neon light sign in the window, Christmas lights wrapped around supports. Not too bright, not too dark. Again, perfect for early morning! They have more amenities and businesses on sight I hope to check out in the future. No photos, I ate it all too fast. Sorry, not sorry. 10/10! Get those Pancakes!

The waitress never apologized or explained. I had to ask for a box and the check because she was just looking at me without saying anything. Also the food wasn't fantastic either. The eggs weren't totally cooked, the quesadilla was soggy on one side, and I asked for an English muffin but got white bread instead. We asked for berries on the French toast and that was not added. For waiting 45 minutes the meal wasn't anything special. Im giving it a 2 star because the food wasn't disgusting and the environment was relaxing and laid back, oh and the friendly black cat when we walked in was cute.

The manager i had to speak to was very professional and apologetic for the issue we had. She offered to move us, give us a free dessert, she was trying to rectify a situation the hostess had caused. She did offer a discount on the bill which was appreciated but honestly I only voiced my complaint so hopefully it doesnt happen again. Now to the issue and the negative - the hostess sat us (me and my husband) at a table. No one around us then immediately put 3 tables together and we overheard they were sitting 15 people there. None of those 15 had inside voices and were extremely loud the entire time. We finally had to box our food up and leave. We had asked to be moved but honestly itd gotten to the point we were just annoyed that grown adults would be so loud and disrespectful in a nice restaurant. If your goal is to be drunk and loud go to bdubs or I dunno stay home so you dont ruin other people's dinner out. Overall we enjoyed the food and the staff aside from the hostess were great. We wont let this stop us from visiting again and will definitely speak up faster next time if put in a situation like that.

Thank you for all the good food. I get Togo food here often it's good stuff, quality food.read more
