Great customer Service Excellent hot flavorful salmon shrimp lobster and crab legs Alfredo was AMAZING Margaritas drink flight was exceptional

Front of building

For the most part the food is consistent. I try to visit on non peak hours during promotions. The service is hit or miss. The least favorite part of my experiences have been the food runners. You've heard the phrase "Too many cooks in the kitchen"? Weeeell it's like that on the dining room. Hope you visit on a good day. Good luck.

Potato Soup !

9-13-24 It's not a big fan of Red Lobster the last time I was there, but this trip was different. It was cold in the restaurant which I had to get a sweater but the food was really really good. The service was great and I would recommend another trip back to red lobster in Monroeville. The restaurant was clean and the service was great.

Pad Thai noodles with chicken
Candace S.

Standard Red Lobster in the area. 3.5 stars Good service, standard food, standard pricing. Food come out quick, and our server was sweet and smiling the whole time. I feel like the cheddar bay biscuits aren't like they used to be. Decided to step out and try something new...The chicken in the thai noodle dish was not seasoned and the sauce a little too sweet. The portion size is huge, 3 people could eat from it. I absolutely recommend the salmon bowl. Very delicious, lots of veggies, brown rice, and roasted brussel sprouts with the perfect amount of balsamic glaze on top.

Crab-Stuffed Shrimp Rangoon
Miles K.

When I was a kid, this was my absolute favorite place to eat. It's been so long that I had no clue what to expect, but I think I had low expectations. Overall, it was an ok experience. We tried the stuffed mushrooms and crab-stuffed shrimp rangoons. The mushrooms were pretty basic and fine for what they were. They were pretty salty in general, and the cheese and butter used were salty so we didn't taste much else. The shrimp rangoons were also ok. We didn't taste a whole lot of the stuffing as there was a lot of the coating on the shrimp. We did enjoy the dipping sauce as it had a touch of heat to it. They weren't bad, but I'd probably go with another app the next time around like the lobster pizza. The biggest issue I had is that one of the shrimp wasn't deveined and that's an immediate turn off. I realize that items like this are likely just shipped to the restaurant already prepped so I'm going to try and avoid holding that against this location. I think misses like that tend to happen often with huge chains. The salad and biscuits tasted exactly like they always have. If you liked them 30 years ago, you'll like them today. For me, that alone made it worth the trip. I had the fish and chips for my meal and it was a mixed bag. I really liked the fries and I enjoyed some of the fish, but a nice portion of the fish was almost like jerky with how tough it was. The only thing I really didn't care for here was the coleslaw. It came out really dry and flavorless. The highlight came from me getting to try some other items like shrimp and crab. I expected the shrimp to be rubbery and over cooked, but it was cooked nicely. The crab I tried was cooked well and was sweet and tender. Lastly, the service wasn't great. Even though it was lunch time, the place was very slow. We weren't checked on much, and when we were, our server looked pained to wait on us. I certainly know bad days happen and I'm hoping that's all it was. I know the service industry can be pretty brutal on the soul. It was a bit of a mixed bag, but I'd be willing to go back again.

What's for dinner? (Friday~ February 28, 2020) Lobster lover's dream!!! I added on an order of walt's shrimp!! Plus, as an appetizer we got the stuff mushrooms!! We ordered a bottle of Muscato to share!! Yum Yum Yum!!! Appetizer specs: As always.... super gooey goodness!! You get a whole mushroom with lobster stuffing, melted cheese & smothered in garlic butter!!! What else is there to say.. Meal specs: As always... It was fantastic!!! The meal has a succulent roasted rock lobster, butter poached Maine lobster tail, lobster and shrimp linguine Alfredo & 2 sides!! I got a potato with butter & sour cream on the side & a salad!! Then, there is the walt's shrimp added on!! Both lobsters where perfectly cooked!! The linguine was not lacking shrimp but could of had more lobster!! Walt's shrimp was crispy & good! The salad was crisp & good!! I get french dressing on the side; which was sweet & tasty!! The potato was also cooked properly. Not hard nor burnt! Drink specs: The wine was sweet & bubbly goodness!!! Bartenders: The bartenders are great!! Even with all the chaos going on around them (since it was a busy night) they still managed to have a smile on their faces and tried their best make sure that you had everything you needed!! Bon appétit!!! Pictures

Items circled are from Red Lobster's take out. Salad, biscuits, whitefish, baked potatoes, rice, shrimp liguini alfredo, & coconut shrimp

Gave this a second try and was very pleased at how different the 2nd visit was. We didn't dine in, though. I ordered the chicken tenders party platter and the Family-Style Create Your Own Feast with oven-broiled whitefish, shrimp Linguini Alfredo, and the Parrot Bay coconut shrimp. Sides were rice, baked potatoes, and a garden salad. Be wary of what it says you'll get, though. I ordered the baked potatoes, but only got three. Not four like it says. Also was disappointed that the coconut shrimp came with some kind of weird pineapple sauce & not shrimp cocktail sauce. I didn't buy any cocktail sauce, so that was a little stressful. People were asking if I had any. Nobody even wanted to try that pineapple sauce. Can't say as I blamed, them, though. I didn't try it, either. Other than the snag with missing a potato and cocktail sauce, though, it was a good experience. We had to wait at the bar for the order & Jeff, the bartender who also doubles as the take-out person, was very friendly.

Very disappointed!!
Star C.

Very disappointed, they said this is how they come because they don't throughly clean them but just throw them in water n cook them!! I'll do it myself going forward!! Wont be returning Bk there!! Very disturbing!!

Shrimp two ways
Chardae J.

I imagine that after Joe's Crab Shack that Red Lobster would have stepped up their game but I unfortunately imagined wrong. The biscuits are still memorable, the staff are friendly and efficient but the mediocre seafood doesn't make up for it. I'd save my money unless you're starving as my most recent experience had the greatest wait staff but my plate was hotter than the food allowing me to believe it sat for a while. The scampi was oily, potatoes were cold and I can't fathom how any of this is good food. With so many options in Pittsburgh these guys have to step up their game. Keep the awesome staff but add some flavors to the food.

Tonight I called around 6 pm to place a takeout order and was told too busy and no takeout orders until 8 pm. Called back about 8:05pm and ordered two takeout dinners. Picked up the bag of food and drove home to find that two sides were not included. Called the restaurant 3 times before getting through. Explained the issue and drove back to pickup the rest of the dinner. Politely asked the woman tending bar if the restaurant offered any compensation since I had to return to get the rest of the meal. I understand mistakes happen but what I didn't expect was the male owner screamed at me saying it was a mistake. He continued in his irate yelling in front of other customers at the bar. I asked him why was he so upset and told him I didn't raise my voice when asking my question just wanted to know if they offered anything to compensate my time and effort to return because of their mistake. Many restaurants offer a dessert or discount on a future meal. As a customer I'm very disappointed with the way I was treated. Because they were very busy tonight I was told they did me a favor by taking my takeout order, which I placed after 8pm. I don't know him personally. Perhaps he is a great guy and maybe he was having a bad night but now he doesn't deserve our future business. There are other good restaurants in the area.

So this place is a long-term local favorite... You could totally tell. And not quite sure if people…read morehave become loyal because of location or because of the specials such as prime rib and really great hearty meals... But I can tell you your breakfast was very traditional. Nothing super exotic or trendy. I'm a Southern girl so I was looking forward to getting country fried steak, gravy and eggs... They're country fried steak is a special that's named after the owner or one of its friends or something... And all it is is steak and gravy... Kind of interesting for a breakfast dish. No eggs. And was one of the most expensive meals so adding eggs would have really put it over the top for breakfast. So I elected to go with a variation of hash browns that I'm accustomed to getting the south from waffle House... Scattered, diced which means tomatoes, and covered which means slice of cheese. Although they restrict the ability to buy beer and wine in grocery stores in Pennsylvania, there is no restriction on when you can get a alcoholic beverage like there is in the south... Bloody Mary with breakfast at 9:00 a.m.. there was a long line to wait for a table so my friend who's the local went to the other entrance for the package store and saw there was ample room at the bar so that's where we went. We split an omelette and got some bacon on the side. The bacon was clearly oven baked and extremely crispy and is barely flavorful. The waitress was nice and attentive at the bar. And she had the southern charm of calling us honey and sweetie even though she was younger than us. My friend says she used to come by there often when her kids were younger or for their weekly specials. It's a large restaurant so plenty of tables in the traditional space. And I guess because of not having extra weight stuff they didn't encourage sitting in the bar... We sat at the bar so had the direct attention of the bartender. You can see from the menu there's lots of options for food which is probably why it's such a popular place.

Local Monroeville flavor. Big portions... and just that hometown dive that every town needs!!…read more Being Gateway alumni, there is something nostalgic about Gateway Grill. Circling the small parking lot looking for your spot, reminiscing on the alumni sports team photos on the walls, and doing the twist in the entryway to navigate your way to your takeout, Gateway Grill is not much... but the food is usually fire!!! The pizza slices have big bubbling crusts with pepperoni so rustic cut that you will wonder if they accidentally gave you the whole piece... over and over again. Don't sleep on their meatball pizza. Because you will have basically full size meatballs for every slice... and they are delightful. We had family in and bought a large order - and we opted to try their sandwiches. The Chuck Roast sandwich and Turkey Rachel both sounded delicious... and Gateway Grill does have fresh smoked meats too! Takeout is a trip. In a full restaurant, you have to kinda stand in the way at the front counter and flag down someone to grab your order. But they definitely do a lot of to-go pizzas so you'll be able to handle it. Unfortunately, with their current to-go containers, the sandwiches ended up being sopping wet with condensation... the bottom toasted bread on both was basically dripping instead of crunchy. The fries had lost all texture too- air fryer to the rescue. I'd still recommend going - just stick to only pizza when ordering takeout until they find a way to ensure quality of other options.

First impression was that the color scheme, decorations, and menu all seemed to be dated and uninspired. The staff were polite and attentive. I ordered the salad and Salmon Oscar. The salad was good and the blue cheese dressing I chose was house-made. It was good. My girlfriend got the wedge salad which I think was a bit expensive since it was a $6 up charge for a wedge of iceberg lettuce from the standard salad that came with the entrees. My Salmon Oscar with asparagus was very good. I enjoyed every bite of the salmon and crab. My daughter's chicken parm came with a ton of linguini. My girlfriend got the signature crab cakes which she said were mostly crab and not filler. So while I thought the menu was dated when reading it the food was well executed.

My wedding soup and my husband's French onion soup were delicious. The wedding soup was loaded with meatballs and chicken. My husband has a thing for French onion soup and tries it every chance he gets. He said this may have been the best ever. We split a Reuben sandwich and upgraded to onion rings. The waitress brought us each a half portion so we didn't have to divide it ourselves, which was nice. There was plenty of meat on the sandwich, making it acceptable, not great but good enough. Onion rings were very good. Dessert sounded tempting, a cherry crème brûlée. It was okay, kind of like cherry jello with a sugar crust on top. A bit disappointing to say the least. Our waitress was on top of filling the water glasses and was very nice. Now for the bad news and why I'm only giving 3 stars. I went to the ladies room before eating and there was no hot water to wash my hands. I asked my husband if the men's room had hot water and he said no. We both let it run but it never got hot, not even warm. Then I noticed (after drinking several glasses of water unfortunately) that there was a crack in my water glass. I mentioned it to my husband and he said, "you should see the chips in the glass tabletop over her on my side". I get it that wear and tear happens, but these things should be caught before serving guests. And as far as the hot water...how do servers and kitchen workers properly clean their hands after using the toilet without hot water? So the food is fairly solid and reasonably priced. But be on the lookout for chipped glassware and table tops. And use your own hand sanitizer if you have it!

We visited on 9/19 for dinner, there were 8 of us. We didn't complain because there were just too many things wrong. This is the first bad experience I had at Outback in over 40 years as we started going to their restaurants for over 40 years. The only thing that was nice was them putting the birthday cake for my mom in the cooler until we were ready to serve it. Here are the problems we encountered. 1. We ordered 2 blooming onions, they were cold. One of them was over cooked, it had blackened area on it where is was over cooked. 2. The broccoli on my plate was cold and didn't look like it was ever cooled. Broccoli is one of the things that is usually good there. 3. My steak was over cooked as well. 4. Two of the other adults in our group did not enjoy their meals and will not be going back at any point in time. 5. We had three teenage boys with us that didn't each much of their food. I could they didn't like and lot a lot on their plates. We would have complained, but with everything so slow we would have never gotten out of there. The bill was over $160 and it was not worth it.
