Want to give Kudos to our waitress Anaya M she was amazing,so kind,hardworking and has strong multitasking skills. Anaya greeted my husband and I with a cheerful smile,explained the menu to us,emphasizing the special of the day,which was Endless Shrimp and making great recommendations of the best tasting food on Red Lobster menu,so appreciative of that. Not long after my husband and I sat down,a party of 10 came in and I was so impressed with how Anaya M was able to go back and forth between our table and 3 other tables without us having a long wait when we needed some extra condiments or wanted more water,napkins,straws etc., Because she has so many tables I would always say to her when you get. a chance no rush bring me the extra condiments,water and Anaya would always come back not to long after with requested item. Red Lobster food was hot,delicious and fresh. I ordered Walter's Fried Shrimp,Caesar salad and baked potato. The shrimp were fresh,not fried hard and plump.The baked potato came out hot and was tasty with added butter and sour cream.Caesar Salad was okay. My husband enjoyed his salmon,lobster and rice he said the salmon was seasoned good and I had a bite of his lobster tail it was juicy and seasoned good. All in all we enjoyed our lunch and this is our favorite Red Lobster location to go to wasn't crowded at all on a Saturday afternoon. read more

Now I am not against chain restaurants but when a location is not maintaining basic standards it ruins the rep for the chai at a whole at times. Came here for a family outing with a large group. They did take reservations which is nice. But when we walked in it was dark and dingey. It took 15 min almost before someone came and even acknowledged our existence. We weee seated in the back and had a whole space to ourselves but there was clearly a lack mod tidiness across the whole of the restaurant. There was a section we were next too that looked like they just decided not to clean it cause it wasn't going to be used. The food was basic. I have enjoyed my meals at red lobster before but it was not it that night at this location. Our serve was very sweet and patient. read more

Me and my family are lovers of seafood boil, we saw their advertise for red lobster, having seafood boil, and we decided to give them a try instead of going to our local seafood restaurant. We arrived at the location the first thing the host informed us. We have to wait between 25 to 30 minutes due to a shortage of employees. After waiting, we sat down and we immediately order our food. The waiter took all of the orders, the food took probably half an hour to be prepared and served. We ordered five seafood boils and we added lobster to it and honestly, I was not impressed with the size of the shrimps or the lobster. They were very small and the potatoes as well. To have spent $350 on this location I don't think it was worth it when we could have way better quality from original seafood restaurants like we have been before . There's always a first time for everything and the seafood boil and red lobster is not worth it. read more

Red Lobster - Waiting to be served - Seafood Near Me - Pembroke Pines, Florida

It's been about a year I don't come to this restaurant, however after running errands I thought it would be a good idea to tried them out again. We did have a great experience last time so "why not"?. We went for early dinner on a Saturday about 5pm and the first thing we noticed is how dark the restaurant looks, right after you get slapped by the smell of wet rug or whatever that musty smell was. Now our server was great, very friendly and quick. I do say they were super slow and barely any tables had people. The sangria flight was delicious lol Food was mid as best. Bacon scallops were not good and definitely didn't look like in the picture. Wouldn't recommend. For main I had the seafood pasta which was a no for me. The lobster was delicious, everything else was not good. We also ordered the feast and once again the only good thing was the lobster and the Mac and cheese. Overall I no longer recommend. If you give them a try I wouldn't recommend anything BUT the lobster. Oh and the biscuits read more

The hosts and servers were very pleasant as they went about their tasks. We were initially sat near the window and early afternoon temps made it a warm encounter. So we asked to sit in a different section and the staff happily obliged. My server, Ericka, was the absolute best. She explained the entree options we were considering and even offered available add-ons to complement the dish. The ambiance was somewhat dim- however the place was clean and very spacious. They also have an upstairs additional section in the rear- likely to accommodate large parties. The Double claw crab entree was superb and the Lobster, Crab and Shrimp Boil Bag was an absolute hit! We will surely be back again! read more

The service was perfection. CC made some great recommendations and definitely understood when we said we wanted flavor.

We didn't have high expectations but this experience was definitely noteworthy. Bang for your buck and absolutely finger licking good.

Impressed by the new CEO and wanted to give them another shot after coming out of bankruptcy. The visit started weird by strange smell (pee or seafood) right when I walked in (maybe in the carpet). The hostess, Pamela I think, was uber friendly and gracious. Throughout the night, she was super all over the place in the best way possible. Our server started strong with good communication about the delay, wanted to get out another tables hot food but would be right back, ok cool. However she came back to take the order and disappeared until food came out like 20 mins later despite saying she'd bring more biscuits and needing some drink refills. The food itself was good for what it was but I will definitely say the pricing has gone up quite a bit on some times there. I know it has everywhere but for the price points they are charging, there are other seafood places that are doing it better ( I know they don't have the biscuits though, lol). I don't think there is any reason to rush back. read more

I have been to this location twice in the past two weeks. I cannot tell you the last time I've even been to a Red Lobster. Last week I went for the $20 Crab legs Tuesday special (they have specials for each night) and I was pleasantly surprised. They were the same size crab legs that you'd get at a seafood boil restaurant. I honestly expected some scrawny crab legs like you'd get at Publix. You could get the crab legs as simply steamed or roasted garlic. I opted for the roasted garlic. The meat itself didn't really have that flavor once you cracked it open which tells me the crab legs are just steamed and then the sauce is poured over it and tossed. It was served over a bed of crispy potatoes which I could've done without. With all that being said, it was still really good and I definitely go back for this. I also went just yesterday to celebrate my niece's birthday. She'd been saying that she wanted shrimp so Red Lobster seemed like the perfect place since they have the endless shrimp. Right before going, I'd read an article that they'd increased the price from $20 to $25 because they didn't expect such an influx of customers and was experiencing profit loss because of the amount of shrimp being eaten. Even with that $5 increase, it is still a great deal. They initially start you off with 3 choices. I choose the grilled, scampi and dragon. The grilled and scampi was delicious. The dragon shrimp was very mushy in the inside. So for the second and third round I alternated between the grilled and scampi. It also comes with one side which I opted for french fries. All in all I had a great experience and would definitely go back if they continue to keep these specials. read more

If it's take out you want and you just feel like being FORGOTTEN then by all means order your meal at this Red Lobster location and ALL of your dreams and wishes will ABSOLUTELY come true!!! How is it possible, that a location that has been open for so many years can function so in-efficiently on a Saturday let alone on a Holiday weekend is beyond my comprehension. It shouldn't come as a surprise after YEARS of being an established Restaurant that it WILL be busy on a weekend let alone a Holiday weekend. My experience at the FORGOTTEN Take-Out counter was as though WE will get to you when WE get to you and you best NOT say a word. However, my question to the Management Team is this, are the To-Go Customers not paying the SAME PRICE for the food as the Dine in patrons? Last I checked, we are paying the same amount and so the service should NOT be sub-par. The inefficiency this evening was beyond words!!!! The young lady with the mid-chin length curly hair would ask your name, disappear then peek at you through the kitchen/bar window. If the kitchen is backed up, tell us don't just disappear and where was the manager to apologize for the long-wait you ask? Ding! Ding! Ding! You guessed it right! Absolutely NO WHERE to be found!! Lots of room for service recovery and customer service training for this Red Lobster location. As for the food, it was eventually received and yes it was good hence the 2 stars. read more

My first time at Red Lobster in almost 10 years. We went for a family member's birthday, and it was good. To start we got the delicious Red Lobster bread and for the appetizer coconut shrimp which did not disappoint. We also ordered the Mango berry sangrias and berry sangria, and they were so good. For our main lobster and shrimp with fries, Lobster lovers with shrimp linguine alfredo lobster and steak, and chicken tenders with fries for the kids. Portions were sizable. Our server was nice, but the service was ok he seemed lost, and not very knowledgeable we had to point out from the menu what we wanted as he did not know the menu. Every day there is a different special. The vibe was very quiet and enjoyable. Music needs to be updated as they still have Christmas music. read more

I started the night off with an espresso martini, my absolute favorite drink. It was a very sweet, chocolately drink garnished with a piece of brownie. Would recommend as a drink after you eat your food and coming from someone who likes to try espresso martinis in different places, I wouldn't call this an espresso martini but it was very good and I would recommend. My boyfriend got the passion fruit margarita and it tastes like juice and is dangerously good. Another traditional staple of Red Lobster is their rolls. They give it to you before your meal and THEY ARE DELICIOUS AND ADDICTING. They are garlic parmesan and they are lightly toasted on the outside and soft and warm on the inside. We also got the lobster dip and it's basically spinach and artichoke dip with tasty, seasoned lobster. I've definitely had better spinach and artichoke dips but what makes this dip is the lobster. After that, I was needing another drink and it's called the under the purple sea. It tastes like watermelon jolly rancher so if you're not a fan of sweet drinks, then I wouldn't recommend this. Finally, we shared the lobster fest. We got the Maine lobster tail, garlic butter lobster tail, lobstermac & cheese. The Maine lobster roll was surprisingly, pretty good and was served with a side of butter of course. We also got the garlic butter lobster and it was a little flavorless considering it had garlic butter on top and around it. The lobster Mac and cheese was my favorite thing on the plate. Usually when you order Mac n cheese at a restaurant, it's a hit or miss because it usually too dry and needs way more cheese. Here, the Mac n cheese was cheesy to perfection and had a good amount of lobster on top of it. Now let's talk prices: all of this cost $120 (not including tip). This isn't bad for a date night since we also got 4 drinks total and a bunch of lobster. I would definitely come back here again. read more

I did what daughters do and met my mom for lunch at her choice of restaurant. My mom ordered a shrimp platter and I had a salad. We shared a brussels sprout for the appetizer and of course we both enjoyed the bread, so vegetarian option not vegan. They do, however have an amazing happy hour selection. The drink prices are great and so was the service. Our server was excellent . She really super nice, friendly and attentive. The environment was nostalgic and it's not because I haven't been in almost 10 years, they just haven't updated the place. There weren't a lot of people for the time of day. I don't know if that was a good sign or a bad sign, but it did help with service. Overall, the food was good, my mom really enjoyed her meal, the service was fantastic, but I do feel this place needs an update. Thanks not only in looks but a more inclusive menu as well. read more

296 N university drive Pembroke Pines , Fl September 3 2023 630 pm 2 person What was suppose to be a nice birthday dinner for Hubby was ruined by a nasty waitress named Destiny . We ordered the stuffed lobster and Destiny brought out the steam one instead . She claimed we lied and then the manager came out and said we would have to pay for the lobster we didn't order . Tiffany the manager changed her mind did the right thing and brought the right lobster . The waitress kept harassing. Us with bombs of saying we were liars . I asked the manager to dismiss her from our table for talking back and ruining the night.. I ordered the Brussels sprouts which were tasty but greasy , the brócoli was cooked nicely and I sent back the salad which for 5 dollars was a mini salad . So we got here at 630 and hubbies meal did not get here till 745 and they forgot the lobster utensils to boot . I don't know how they can have such a snarky waitress working there . Thank goodness for Tiffany the manger . To our surprise a birthday dessert was brought and song ,and this was a nice touch ... Note the front door glass is filthy with finger prints and the little computer on tables filthy dirty we asked the waitress to clean it and she ignored us. She also wiped most of the tables with the same dirty rags. If you are concern about the germs bring your own hand sanitizer to clean table and hands. read more

Red Lobster has been a part of our memories since Max and I were 8 years old. Back in those days Red Lobster was the cat's meow. You only went to Red Lobster for special occasions. Today, any day of the week is like you are going out to eat and you don't think anything of it. The service was fast and friendly. Gilene asked me how the Garlic Snow Crabs were and I asked where the shower was. There is no way to act like a lady eating these delights. The $5 Watermelon Martini is worth it. The seating is comfortable and welcoming. As long as they have the Snow Crab special we will return. I hope the reviews improve. We had no complaints. read more

So basically I'm a food inspector that goes to different restaurants testing their food. I decided to go with my mother because it's Mother's Day and before going into a restaurant I called to make a reservation. They didn't do reservations which I was fine with but the way the worker was talking to me like she had better things to do wasn't up to other restaurants standards. When we got to the restaurant we waited 10-14 minutes to get seated which was expected since it was a holiday. When it was our turn to get a table we had a nice waiter but the problem was it took her 9 minutes to get to our table, yes I kid you not from 6:03 to 6:12 me and my mother sat there waiting to order food. Then when we got our drinks and cheddar bay biscuits it took our waiter from 6:19 to 7:03 to actually get our meal. I know it was a holiday but still waiting that long was outrageous I was looking around and the atmosphere was full of boredom. Everyone there was just sitting down tapping their fingers looking at the people who already got their food with envy and as kids would say not gonna lie always also looking at other peoples food wish interviewing I could be fed already. At my time there I could also see a couple with a baby the wife was half asleep while the baby was asleep. I felt ashamed bringing my mother into such an establishment for mother's days. When had got our food we ate like wild barbarians because that was the level of hunger we were at. When we got the check we had to remind the waiter that she missed a side of hush puppies. Overall being there was a bad experience if you want to get a restaurant I would suggest Ihop , Dennys, or Outback Steakhouse. They could get you your food in half the time. read more

This chain makes good biscuits and they are freshly made. I had a not-so-good experience at this location. I am giving it 2 stars for the food and those delicious biscuits. We came around 7:30 and were quickly seated. This location always has a long wait. The waitress seemed a little distracted but nice. She initially took a long while to come to our table. We thought she was backed up and so we placed a complete order as in drinks, appetizers, and meals to speed things up. We told her we had tickets for a show. Next to us, the place was setting up for a large group of around 18 people. The waitress brought our appetizers and fifteen minutes later the drinks and biscuits. Around this time the large group started to get seated. Our waitress ignored us. 20 short minutes later we flagged her down literally, and asked about our meal. She said the kitchen was backed up. We noted the group of 18 who came after us, was being served. Another 15 short minutes later we asked to speak to a manager. The waitress came and told us. "When we get larger groups the kitchen prioritizes them first" that is crazy. We got our meal when the last plate was served for that group, even though we got there first. I won't bother to write down how the story ended but the checkout was another mess. I don't normally give low ratings but I think this place deserved it. read more

Cassie A., Business Manager of Red Lobster, responded to my negative review on Yelp for the Plantation Red Lobster after what was a very horrible experience as far as service was concerned. I then received two Red Lobster coupons to give it another try. And try I did. I went to the Pembroke Pines location last night, which was a delight from beginning to end! Our server, Rebecca, was kind and courteous. Our food and drinks were delivered promptly and with the proper utensils. I ordered the same thing I ordered at the other location, including the drink - the Mariner's Seafood Boil with Cajun seasoning, and the Tito Strawberry Lemonade, (see my review of 7/10/25). I would highly recommend THIS location and server and would definitely be going back. I appreciate Red Lobster for making things right. read more

Red Lobster is a mediocre restaurant at best, and if you come here expecting to have a fine dining experience or to get top rate service, you are seriously delusional. This is budget dining sea food, along the lines of Denny's or iHop, except with seafood. Nothing more, nothing less. The wait staff are not going to be the best, because they aren't being paid to be. The food is going to be battered and fried and you're not getting the best of the sea. You're also not paying for the best. So, this review is not looking at any of those things because they are a given and you should know that before you walk through the door. I am giving this review because of Tiffany, the manager/bartender/waitress. Her job is manager, but on the unfortunate night that we happened in, she had three of her staff call in and she was covering for them. She was also in charge of the takeout orders. In short, Tiffany was very busy. But with everything she had to do, she still waited on our table, and she was wonderful. She was as attentive to us as she could possibly be, she offered suggestions and she steered us toward the best of the endless shrimp dishes. The shrimp was fine. The dragon is especially tasty. The garlic was tasty, but I hate dealing with tails. All-in-all, the shrimp was really good. There is a coconut one that I especially liked. Even better with the dipping sauce they provide. I wish I could have handled more than two go-arounds (three different types each time), but my stomach is already bigger than I want it to be, so I limited myself. Thank you, Tiffany, for being you. You are an asset to Red Lobster and I hope they realize what a treasure they have in you. And to all you one-star people, lower your expectations and you won't be so disappointed. It's Red Lobster, not Ruth's Chris. read more

I have never been so exhausting from a dinner in my whole life. We came because we heard about their daily deals so Tuesday is snow crabs for $20, that was enough to get us through the door. We were greeted and told for a party of 6 it would be 5 minutes but then that changed to a 20 minute wait on what seemed to be an empty Halloween night. Our waitress Jaime was very kind in her kitty cat costume making sure she got our drinks immediately and getting us our biscuits. Sadly she seemed very overwhelmed and couldn't be as attentive but it was not her fault as they were understaffed. So a timeline we arrive at 7 were seated by 7:20, and we finally placed our order 7:50. After what felt like hours our food finally arrived at 8:30. While the rest of my party ate I still hadn't received my order of crab legs which arrived at the table at almost 9pm. After all the waiting I was truly ready to tell our waiter that I didn't even want them anymore but at that point they came. After eating a few of the crabs legs there was a rubber band sitting in between the legs and at that point I had enough. The manager was called over and he said they are understaffed and backed up and he would help us out. Which I was grateful for cause I get it times are tough. Thankfully he comped the crab and brought us some refills of the endless shrimp others had been waiting for. Overall theres potential they just need some help. read more

This was my 1st time at this location and its definitely not the Red Lobster I'm used to dining at. When I walked in, the 1st thing I notice was how dirty was the lobster tank. This location needs a MAJOR deep cleaning on everything from dusting to removing the musty/moldy smell. There was no host to greet you, and sadly, only 2 waitress on Memorial Day. Our server was okay! She did the best she could with all the tables that she had. We ordered the Cajun Chicken Linguini Alfredo, Seaside Shrimp Trio and the Langostino Lobster-Artichoke-and-Seafood Dip. Our food took over 30 minutes to come out. The dip was excellent. However, I wish could say the same about the pasta, as it only had a few small pieces of chicken. I will not be coming back to this location. read more
