Hernan was my server and he was fantastic! My son had just passed his drivers test and we went to Red Lobster to celebrate. Our server, Hernan was super polite and provided us with exceptional service. read more

so came here to treat myself to lobster fest which I always miss due to budget. pretty quite day so I was seen quickly and sat in the bar area. the waiter I got could not been more polite and respectful if he tried, he told me of specials and lobster fest. very patient with me since RL is expensive and I had to take a bit to decided what to drop major bills on. hah. I settled on new England lobster and seafood bake. my food came fairly quickly, now the white wine sauce was so good, I wanted a cup just to drink it. potatoes and corn were okay, wish they bathed in the sauce. sausages were cooked perfectly. crab,lobster and shrimp were yummy and bathed in sauce like cray cray. now mussels were cooked good, my only was I had bits of cracked mussels shells in meat. the shells themselves were uncracked but I had shells in meat when I pulled out to eat, which was unappetizing. the rice side dish was sub par, and some of rice had burnt pieces in it. cheddar bay biscuits always a fave were perfect. overall a great time, just hope for better preparation of food next time. salad as side instead of rice as well. read more

Red Lobster - new England lobster and seafood bake - Seafood Near Me - Middletown, New York

Pros: Service was excellent our waitress was very friendly, effecient and attentive, cheddar biscuits awesome, draft Blue Moon was the BEST I've ever had Cons: Seafood is unfortuately mediocre. I got the fried seafood platter, the clams were good but the rest lacked flavor, and obviously came to the restaurant pre-breaded and frozen the fish and scallops were also a little soggy. The fries were good though. My sister got the broiled seafood platter, and liked the fish best, shrimp was okay. We used a coupon, otherwise probably would not have gone, it is the first time we'd been to a Red Lobster in probably over a decade. 4 stars for service, but 2 stars for food. read more

Took my sister to dinner for some sibling time. Haven't been here for some time, used to go to one in nanuet more often. Ordered fisherman's platter so I could sample a little of everything. Everything was prepared as per usual taste and presentation. The waitress was extremely courteous and helpful. Restaurant was clean,and well kept. Cocktails were tasty, and made to order from special instructions from my sisters request. read more

I went here for the first time last year just to try it out and I was pleasantly surprised. All of use tried the entree sampler they had featured and we got to try a little bit of everything, and not a bad thing in the whole order. My only criticism is that some of the food can be a bit inconsistent. I have gone a few more times and some of the food comes slightly over cooked, or a little firm. Not so bad that it ruined the food though so only a minor complaint. Will definitely be going back for more. read more

Always good food. The cheese biscuits are to die for. Can't go wrong with the coconut shrimp or the kung PO noodles.

Went to the Middletown Red Lobster for a birthday dinner. It being a Monday, two of our party decided to go for Endless Shrimps. Bad decision! The waitress was rude and condescending when we tried to ask for a refill on what was supposed to be endless shrimps. Would like to point out here, that we just asked for a refill the one time and it wasn't as if we had already consumed copious amounts of shrimps! But she made us uncomfortable asking for it! This has happened to another friend of ours sometime back at the same Red Lobster and makes me think, could it be a management strategy to make it difficult for customers to actually ask for and get refills! They would be better off not running this promotion! read more

Have been here before and been satisfied but not sure what happened today. After having the stuffed mushrooms as an appetizer which was served piping hot, our entrees arrived. My shrimp trio was lukewarm as was my wife's lobster Alfredo. Calling the server over, she apologized and took the plates back for reheating. After ten minutes, our plates were returned. Though the plate was hot, the food was no warmer. The server called the manager over who apologized and offered new plates but we didn't want to wait. He took the food of the bill but we left the food on the table. Not sure what's happening in the kitchen but the food was definitely not hot enough. Well try again though. read more

We had a gift card so we decided to go tonight. The prices have certainly risen but that is everywhere. The place looked dated, it was clean but tired looking if you know what I mean. I ordered the twin lobster tails with two sides. I got the baked potato and Cole slaw as they were out of fresh salads. The lobster and potatoes were good, the Cole slaw, not so much. My husband ordered the crunch flounder and same sides as mine. We were expecting a batter crust from the name. It was breaded and tasted like Mrs. Paul's. Even Gordon's is better. He also got the broiled bay scallops. I have no idea the sauce they were in, I've broiled scallops and didn't have so much liquid. They were horrible. No rubbery, but just were not appetizing. The bill came to $ 75 without tip. I could have made it at home. The waiter was wonderful. Took the scallops off the bill and offered him a free dessert, which we declined. I recommend you go elsewhere or cook your own. The cheese biscuits were very good, but you can buy the mix in most grocery stores with the same results if you make them with fresh cheddar cheese. read more

Went for an early dinner and the hostess greeted us with a big welcome and promptly sat us at the table. The waitress came over and took our drink order while we read the menu. We placed our order and the soup was delicious, the salad fresh and the meal tasty. read more

Hubby and I stopped in for lunch after an appointment in Middletown. I haven't been to RL in over two years and this was a very pleasant experience. The gal at the hostess desk was very happy and pleasant. The dining room was relaxing and I loved the high ceilings in this location. A waiter came and took our drink order right away and explained our server Jeanine was a little busy but would bring our beverages soon. I must say, Jeanine was an excellent waitress. Then again, it was 2:15 when we walked in so we were there after the lunch time rush. The food was excellent and received just how we asked for it. She brought us those delicious biscuits and then asked us if we wanted more. She was so good to bring us six this time and a bag in case we needed to take them home. The fish and chips was very good and enjoyed thoroughly. Great experience. read more

We just went to dinner, which was very nice until we were 25 minuets into our meal and a couple of very aggressive flies tried to take over the meal repeatedly. We weren't going to fight them over the course of our visit. That was the end of our dinner! We informed them we weren't paying and left with their apologies. There has to be some way that they can control that. I quite sure others have complained. read more

So I was in the mood for some seafood, because all I've been seeing is Lobster Fest all over tv so hey let's do it ehh?! We Walked in, and was greeted by friendly staff on a hectic Friday night and seated right away. Place is clean and well kept. Our server came over, and introduced himself and gave us water with lemon and didn't rush us at all since it took us a while to look over the menu & decide what we wanted to order. We both shared shrimp pot stickers and it was yummy. For our entrees we Ordered trios, one was with salmon and the other shrimp. Food came in decent time. Everything was delicious. Oh .. let me not forget there famous biscuits.. it came out super hot and oh so freakin good! We were so stuffed after eating to the point where we had no room for desert, and I'm a BIG dessert head... :( Boo!! Lol.. Our experience here was great and will definitely come back again and recommend to family & friends! The End, Good night everyone.. Xoxoxo ciao .. ;-) read more

Got seated right away. Unfortunately biscuits didn't come out until we got our entrees... House salad was going bad and they still served the bad discolored lettuce..also the Ranch dressing was warm. Tasted so bad. Peach lemonade was amazing. Unfortunately the Sprite was served with dirty ice. Had to return it since you could actually see Black PARTICLES floating on top of the drink. This location or some reason a lot of the things were salty. I go to many Red Lobster locations and not fond of this one... read more

So we came for Mother's Day and they do not take reservations nor will they take your name down if you're on your way ! So our wait was an hour and 10 minutes and yes we had to wait the entire hour and 10 minutes ! I know the wait is to be expected because it's Mother's Day but they still should have done reservations ! two thumbs down to that! Service was fabulous I believe our server's name was Shannon she was very polite! We tried to make everything as simple and as quick as possible & still she was one of the better servers! now about the food my boyfriend had the ultimate feast which his lobster tail was tender & tasty, the shrimp was extra breaded I guess that's to make it look bigger. the garlic butter shrimp was good I had the pound and a half of king crab legs 32.00 chef special! which when they got to the table they were lukewarm, the kitchen slices into it for you so you don't have that much work but I guess that's why they were cold! by the time you got halfway done they were really cold that was disappointing but they're very meaty a lot less work than snow crab legs that's for sure! My sides were 4 teeny baby potatoes and a half of corn on the cob! I also ordered the lobster langostino alfredo it was given to me in a small bowl and definitely over cooked in the oven because the edges were crispy! Hey the last thing is when I got home I ate the baby potatoes at least tried to and they were raw inside as tiny as they are how was it that they couldn't cook em thoroughly? and yes I will call Red Lobster because I did not spend $80 to have burnt and undercooked food! And yes I gave this particular Red Lobster 4 stars because I have been to a couple others that just did not care what they gave you! read more

3.5 stars. The cheddar biscuits ROCK. The food was otherwise mediocre, but they get an extra .5 for cleanliness and staff attentiveness.

Absolutely love this location. The food is always AMAZING. The service is impeccable. My favorite restaurant to dine in, in Middletown. I've sat with Pablo, Lauren, Allen, Stephanie and Janine and all servers are amazing. This is THE best restaurant in Middletown. I've been a regular here for years. read more

Staff was nice. But the food is really horrible. I don't understand why they would over salt all the seafood. Like lobster and shrimp are not fattening but when you over salt and over Grease it, it's gross and Unhealthy. The biscuits are greasy, and I remember them Being a lot more crispy, they were pretty soft. Me, my sister and mom had the seaport meal which is lobster shrimp scampi, and grilled shrimp. (I was expecting the scampi to be greasy) We all complained that the lobster, shrimps and even the broccoli were overly salty. Highly dissatisfied, need to write to the company and complain. Seafood differently...... my ass. read more

Red Lobster - Love those biscuits! - Seafood Near Me - Middletown, New York

Made an order for pick up at 9:30pm right before they closed and arrived at 9:55 just before they closed to find out they never received my order. What I didn't know is they receive it separately from a call center and aren't at fault. I didn't mind waiting the manager was amazing. She was very nice and apologetic! I wasn't upset or couldn't be because of how kind they were. She gave me a discount and a soda as I waited. Another server came to check on me and keep me up on my order while I waited. I appreciate the great service because they are closed and I know they want to get off and go home but still were nice and attentive. You just barely find that anymore! read more

I went yesterday with my 94 year old mom who was really really cold from the rain. She asked for a hot chocolate and the waitress said, that it was not on the menu, but gosh perhaps she could make one. So thinking like Jack Nicholson's famous restaurant clip, there is chocolate syryp and there is milk, and she made a small hot chocolate for my mom. Jamie went beyond that kindness and was attentive iwthout being phoney. I went near the kitchen for a spoon and she walked back a heavy tray she was just leaving with, to get me one, and then handed me the boxes to go, knowing we were leaving asap... then went on with her tray. Perhaps this is a Jamie review, but the management should know she was as polite and efficient with everyone I saw her serve. This woman needs a raise. We even had to move tables due to extreme fragrance of a woman who sat opposite and instead of rolling their eyes, she and the woman at the front seating people, helped us move in 60 seconds. Great memory for a woman now moving up to the area from warm Florida. read more

I have been going to Red Lobster from New Jersey to New York. Virginia to Florida. For over 25 years. This one in Middletown, NY is by far the best one! The portions are huge, everything is done to perfection, the staff goes out of their way to be helpful. One day I might try those cheddar bay biscuits even! Yes I never had One, I am there for food not bread. Only problem is??? Everyone else knows this is the best place as well. Be prepared to make reservations or wait for at least an hour if you get there after 6:pm. read more

The Red Lobster has the best crab fest. The seafood selection is very good and the service is always good.

I have ate here a few times, and for the most part the wait staff are good. Otherwise the managers are horrible and I'm pretty sure I witnessed the bartender with the man bun dealing drugs to customers that came in to "have a drink" but were really buying drugs. The other bartender looked like she was on drugs herself as well or heavily trying out her own bar drinks. The food was average at best. At the end of the day I wouldn't mind maybe coming another time or two but when I think about the horrible managers and the drug dealing employees I would have to think again. Unfortunately they are the only red lobster in the immediate area. (45 minutes or so at least to the next closest) if I could have the police or their corporate bosses look into them I would. read more

Very SAD meal! I had a very long long day at work and my husband wanted to treat me to a relaxed meal, Our trip to RL was far from it. Started out with their iced tea wasn't fresh brewed in which the waitress ensured it was, I ordered the fish taco's - initially salad came and it was wilted and the blue cheese dressing was too sweet to eat. The tacos came with green beans and it was just horrible! Green beans were raw and the tacos were saturated with dressing that you could not taste the fish (that was the size of sardines) on the taco. I complained and it fell on deaf ears... I WILL NEVER go back here! I am from the south and the Red Lobsters I have visited never has been as bad as this one!!! read more

Food/ service was very good! Was not able to finish much... there was just so much food left over!! Not such a bad thing, will have leftovers for days! Sweet chili shrimp appetizer very good/a bit spicy for some-perfect for me. The stuffed lobster is also very good. No complaints really. Also, hostesses very friendly and accommodating. read more

DW and I felt like some seafood and this is pretty much the only place in town when it comes to munching on our friends from the sea... It was late in the evening by the time we arrived so it was quiet and we were seated right away. The hostess was super friendly and took a lobster out of the tank so that our daughter could pet it. Who knew that RL doubled as a petting zoo? Anyway, food was par for the course, we dined off the new "wood grilled" menu. I had some sort of grilled shrimp and scallops, DW had lobster tail with coconut and sweet and spicy grilled shrimp. We enjoyed some frozen drinks with our meal and they were good as well. So why only 3 stars?? Cheddar Bay Biscuits (one of the reasons I like going here) were overly greasy. This didn't slow me down but DW only took a few bites from one of them. (-1 star) The first highchair they brought out for us, the seatbelt straps were wet and smelled of vomit. They did bring us another seat after we asked. (-1 star) read more
