    We hadn't been to Red Lobster in years! Our kids were excited to try it since it was their first time. They loved the live lobsters in the tank and a staff member was so kindly enough to take one out for them to see up close. They loved this experience! We went during lobster fest and man the menu had tons of options! It was so hard to decide on one dish. Everything tasted so fresh and delicious. It was also happy hour so we ordered classic margaritas and the portion was big! Overall, we had a great experience and our server was also so attentive, friendly , and just simply lovely! We can't wait to go back and try other items soon.

    Hadn't been to Red Lobster in years and had one nearby and went in for lunch on a Friday. It wasn't busy so we were seated right away. Our waitress was nice and attentive. The host was also super nice and friendly. I had the Friday special which has a combination of shrimp scampi, shrimp Alfredo, and popcorn chicken with fries. Great deal and portion and everything was flavorful. Also had a classic margarita from the happy hour menu and for the price it was a lot bigger than expected so that was a nice surprise. Overall really enjoyed the meal and won't go too long without visiting again.

    I've always liked it here because I've never been dissatisfied with my meals. This time I had the shrimp platter which comes with fried, scampi and pasta. The shrimps here are always good and this is a big plate to order if hungry. The pasta was cooked just right and also comes with a side. My wife had the fish and chips and very delicious too. They have good happy hour specials on meals and drinks and of course one of the the best parts are the biscuits!!

    Who eats chicken tenders at red lobsters? ME... why? Because they're so good, hot, and honestly I love their honey mustard. It's the best honey mustard I've ever had... lol I highly recommend eating here if you do love seafood. I do also eat seafood but I had a strong craving for chicken tenders. I was sat right away, food came out promptly and the service was good... thanks Micheal!

    Four stars for customer service very attentive and asked questions. First time having the seafood boil it was OK. I would prefer bigger shrimp and my corn was a little cold. Overall, I give it a 6 1/2 out of 10. Red lobster is always a staple casual seafood restaurant so I would always come and get the usual fried shrimp or fish platters .Not sure on how I feel about getting the crab boil again though. Biscuits per usual 10 out of 10. Location is very convenient close to convention center and hotels for and other attractions

    We came here as a group of five after a full day of dancing at the Zumba convention. The restaurant wasn't crowded, but it still took about 10 minutes for us to be seated. Once we sat down, it felt like forever before our server came over. When she finally passed by, she said, "I'll be with you soon." A bit of a bummer since we were hungry. I think it would've been nice if she had at least dropped off biscuits and water while we waited. That said, she was clearly very busy, constantly moving. At one point she even dropped a tray of drinks while rushing, so I can understand the pressure she was under. It seemed like the restaurant could use a few more staff members to keep things running smoothly. When she was finally able to take our orders, I went with the drink flight, which included passion fruit, watermelon, and another flavor I can't quite remember, but all were tasty, and for $17, no complaints. For my entrée, I ordered the Cajun Chicken Alfredo. It was decent, though I would've liked a bit more Cajun seasoning. The biscuits, as expected, were delicious, and my friend's hush puppies were also great. Overall, everyone at our table enjoyed their food and drinks, and despite a slow start, it turned out to be a good meal.

    We were given a gift card for Christmas. Had to drive across town, but the food was worth it. If I'm honest I was surprised. Everything was served hot and fresh. They menu is extensive and they offer a Happy Hour from 3-6

    This location is one of the few Red Lobsters still open, which made me want to stop in since I haven't been in years. The food was okay -- not bad. However, the service was excellent and really stood out during the visit. The staff was attentive, friendly, and made the experience enjoyable. It also seems like they've expanded and updated their menu compared to what I remember, which was a nice surprise. Overall, a decent experience!!

    I thought this was hilarious, a cheeky play on their well-known and beloved downfall - the now retired "endless shrimp."

    We had a great experience at this Red Lobster location. The interior felt fresh and clean, maybe newly redesigned, and the staff were friendly. The food was piping hot and exactly the quality that I'd expect at a Red Lobster (yummy, familiar, large portions, but obviously still just classic chain restaurant food haha). And the biscuits are still perfect.

    We love Red Lobster and Harlee

    This is the best Red Lobster and our favorite place to go every time we come to Orlando. Harlee treated us like family tonight and the manager Robinson asked us how everything was...I couldn't explain in words. I had to get up and give him a hug. I cried with all the emotions of the dinner and the hospitality that our family of 5 (including Jack) experienced. The food was next level too!

    I now understand why I don't go to red lobster, and why they are closing restaurants across the country. If the level of service and the food quality is this bad, don't waste your time and money. Took my son here at his request while here in Orlando, just for cheddar bay biscuits, and honestly that was the best thing here, and the only reason for the extra star. Server was so flippant and emotionless and unfriendly I felt like we were at a dive bar on Daytona beach and she was the bartender recovering from spring break week. She was just not nice. Ordered burger for my son cooked medium. Totally plain with fries and a side of mayo for the fries. I had the shrimp triple with fries and mayo on side also, which was ok but nothing special. Restaurant was nearly empty, but server was not seen after order placed, and delivered by someone else. No Mayo but instead ketchup. Ok no problem. That happens sometimes. Son tries to eat his med rare burger and can't even chew his first bite of the burger. I cut the burger in half, and it's solid grey inside and well done. Waited ten mins for the server to come over after she comes over we tell her and show her the burger is well, she mumbles sorry, grabs the plate and says the new one will be out shortly. No offer to refill drinks. Next one gets delivered (in photos) in literally less than 5 mins, and appears to be either microwaved or cooked at low temp for less than a minute and raw. He gets nauseous after first bite. At this point I'm so annoyed I'm looking for a manager but of course no one around. The eight top next to us mind you has two servers, and literally had both of them at the table 14-15 different times, checking on drinks, food quality, needs etc. Stark contrast to what we got. I would give you the server to avoid here but let's hope this was an off night for her. She came and cleared the plates, and didn't even ask why the second burger was untouched, or offer anything more than drop the check off. Will not be back here ever. They could have gotten him so very sick taking the re-fire to this extreme.

Monica was friendly, welcoming, and provided excellent customer service. Unfortunately, our interaction with Mary was the complete opposite. She was rude and unaccommodating, which made our visit unpleasant. After ordering a few drinks, we decided to patronize another business. As a group of returning customers, we were also disappointed that no effort was made to accommodate us. We've supported this restaurant year after year, and we expected a more welcoming experience, especially as loyal guests. We hope management recognizes the difference that customer service can make and addresses these concerns so future guests--and returning customers like us--have a better experience.

For a simple meal for two people, the service was unreasonably slow throughout the evening. Our server, Svet, was polite and personable, but friendliness alone could not make up for the delays. The hummus appetizer was excellent and was easily the highlight of the meal. It was flavorful and served with pita, cucumbers, carrots, and red peppers. The food presentation overall was attractive and showed promise. The most serious issue occurred when my son ordered a refill of his virgin mojito and was served a drink containing alcohol. He immediately noticed something was wrong after taking a sip and handed it to me. I tasted it as well and confirmed that it contained alcohol. Serving alcohol in a child's drink is a significant mistake and should never happen. We also ordered the steak frites based on a recommendation and were told it was exceptional. Unfortunately, the steak was extremely tough and chewy, making it difficult to eat and far from what was described. Management apologized and removed the steak from the bill, but the combination of excessive wait times, the alcohol mix-up involving a minor, and the disappointing entrée left a poor overall impression.

I went with my brother and sister-in-law, and the food was excellent. The lemon pepper dry rub wings were absolutely amazing--crispy, flavorful, and seasoned perfectly. They were so good I jokingly wanted to bite my fingers afterward! I also tried the Honey Thai wings, but they just weren't for me because I don't really enjoy spicy food. That's completely a personal preference, though. The edamame was fresh and tasty, and the appetizers we shared were all very good. Even though the restaurant was completely packed, the service was impressive. I expected a long wait, but I was seated almost immediately, and our server kept everything moving smoothly despite how busy it was. The only downside is the parking. There isn't convenient parking directly in front of the restaurant, so you'll need to park in the nearby garage, take the elevator down, and walk over. The good news is that parking on the top floor is free. Along the walk, there were several outdoor vendors selling fresh fruit drinks, roasted corn, sweet treats, and small shopping items, which made the walk a little more enjoyable. Overall, this Yard House delivered great food, efficient service, and a fun atmosphere. If you're visiting International Drive and looking for a great place to eat, I definitely recommend stopping by. I'll absolutely be back!

There were several places to choose from, but this one seemed like a good fit because it wasn't overly loud, and we wanted to be able to hear each other. We initially sat outside, but we were told they had stopped serving the outdoor seating area, so we moved inside. Rather than wait for a server, we decided to order directly from the bar since it seemed like the faster option. There weren't enough seats at the bar for our group of five, so we grabbed a nearby booth. The bartender was friendly, and our drinks were excellent. Unfortunately, that's where the positive experience ended. Although people were not coming in, but some people were eating, and enjoying drinks throughout the restaurant, it seemed like the staff had started cleaning up for the night. A server came over, and we explained that we were only there for drinks. After we received our drinks from the bar, he returned and told us that we would soon have to get up so he could clean the table. Seriously? I looked around and saw several other tables where some guests were simply sitting, talking, and enjoying their drinks. They weren't eating either. It made us feel as though, because we had only ordered beverages, we weren't as welcome as everyone else. I chose not to let one person's behavior ruin our evening because I'd rather believe that one employee doesn't represent the entire establishment. In fact, the bartender was great, and the drinks were very well made. What disappointed me was the server's attitude. I wasn't aware that ordering drinks at a restaurant with a full bar wasn't enough to be considered a paying customer, especially when there weren't enough bar stools to accommodate our group. His approach came across as rude, unprofessional, and completely unnecessary. Needless to say, we were not going to get up until we had finished out drinks, and we did not. I may return to try the food because the drinks were impressive, but if I ever encounter that same server again, I definitely won't be sitting in his section.
