Bacon wrap, scallop appetizer it comes with four but clearly we already got into them

5 stars all the way around!! Hostess was fantastic and so friendly! We had an awesome meal and super service!

Waiting for Red Lobster to go into the RED again!

Red Lobster closed at least 129 restaurants as part of its bankruptcy proceedings and restructuring efforts.The company was ultimately acquired by RL Investor Holdings LLC, an entity backed by Fortress Investment Group. I went in for lunch yesterday at the spectrum location and sat at a booth in the bar area. It was not overly busy. I waited 10 minutes for a server to bring me a water and take my order, as I had a limited time for lunch just like most working people on their lunch break. I then requested that the hostess re-seat me in a section that had a server that could take my order soon. After being reseated, I waited another 5 minutes and no server came to take my order. At that point I left this Red Lobster location. I gave the food rating 1 star because I received NO FOOD! I gave 1 star for the Service rating because I received NO SERVICE! I gave the atmosphere rating 1 star because there wasn't any! One would think that if a restaurant chain was in bankruptcy and ultimately sold the chain, that the new owners would strive to do better. I thought WRONG! Good Luck in the next bankruptcy proceeding!

Create Your Own Feast
Kandi J.

First time eating at this location, and we were not disappointed! We were seated immediately, even though it was dinner time on a Friday night. I ordered the "Create Your Own Ultimate Feast" complete with crab legs, lobster tail, shrimp linguine , and shrimp scampi. For sides I ordered a baked potato and steamed broccoli. Everything was amazing. The seafood was delicious, as the sides were very good too. Our server was exceptional, keeping our drinks refilled. We will be back to this location!

Hand-Breaded Calamari Starter
Heino P.

Consistently Good Service and Food We visited on a Friday evening at about 4:30 pm. This is in the Spectrum Marketplace in South Tucson. We enjoy going to Red Lobster and have visited many around the country. Fridays are always busy there and arriving before 5:00 usually ensures immediate seating. Plan to wait as you get closer to 6:00. Red Lobster has not escaped the staff shortage problem and thankfully, chooses to not fill their restaurants with diners when they are short of servers. This keeps the server:diner ratio in line with being able to provide consistently good attentive service. I applaud them for doing so. We were seated immediately in the consistently familiar and comfortable dining area. Beverages include fountain sodas, teas and full bar service. We kicked-off with the Hand-Breaded Calamari Starter. These came out quickly and were piping hot. A very large portion of lightly battered perfectly fried rings thicker than usual so they were more tasty, soft and tender with no rubber tire chewiness. Served with jalapeno ranch and marinara dipping sauces. Plenty here for 3-4 to share. For our meals, my wife opted for the Sesame-Soy Salmon Bowl and I chose the Shrimp and Lobster Tacos. The generous portion of soy-ginger glazed salmon was very flavorful. The brussels sprouts were halved and heavily caramelized, but not burned, and we think topped with a drizzle of balsamic vinegar. The sprouts and salmon were sprinkled with crunchy crispy fried onions. The spring mix salad was fresh with a light vinaigrette. Edamame and orzo rice were included, but were not anything special. My wife really enjoyed this bowl meal. My tacos were full size tacos on grilled corn tortillas with good amounts of lobster and shrimp. The seafood was accompanied with jalapeno slaw, pico de gallo, a tasty lime crema and fresh cilantro. I found that the breading and frying overpowered the flavor of the shrimp and lobster and when topped with all the other ingredients, I got a real good south of the border flavor in my mouth just missing the seafood flavors. I brought two tacos home for next days lunch. If we had not filled up as much on the calamari, we probably would not have brought home leftovers. The portions are always large, the service was excellent and the setting is comfortable. We will visit again, but I'll pass on the tacos.

Cheddar Bay Biscuits
Eva B.

We came here for dinner on Valentine's Day and it was perfect! It was crowded, but we expected that. We got a seat at the bar area and we really liked our waiter - we think his name was Ryan. He felt really bad that they had run out of salmon, it's one of the things I wanted to order. He apologized and was so polite. But even though he was super busy he made sure we had everything we needed. He was very attentive. Our favorite thing to order here is the Create Your Own Combinations and we like the garlic shrimp scampi and I like to sometimes add salmon. The Cheddar Bay Biscuits are the best too of course!

Lobster bake
Tyrone F.

Been here a few times. My most recent experienced was great. I stopped in for lunch. I was seated by a bunch of other seated tables. It wasn't busy but I would have preferred if they spread the tables out a little bit instead of by section. I ordered their new combo that was on the menu. Of course, the picture in the menu looks far better and bountiful than what you actually get, but all components of the dish where there and it was pretty tasty!

Surf and turf

We went to Red Lobster for my sister's birthday last week. The food quality is now questionable, prices exorbitant, and service lacking. The stench coming from the kitchen was overwhelming. We will not be making this mistake a second time. Good riddance.

Nice restaurant. Been here a few times, some with colleagues for lunch…read more Food is good. I've had a variety of things, some Mexican dishes, some American. Did a breakfast once. I wouldn't say that it is top of the line cooking, but it is very delicious and definitely worth a visit this side of town. Parking can be a little challenging, they do share a parking lot with other businesses, but close in, there are not that many spots. Service is always friendly and makes you feel comfortable. Interesting atmosphere with flamingos galore and other things decorating the inside. Gives it somewhat of a party and fun feel. Food comes out in a timely manner even when they are very busy. Prices are reasonable. Give it a try, I think you'll like it. 5* = A top favorite. Mind-blowing good. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime of my money. 4* = Outstanding. Top-tier. Some elements not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business. 3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient, the only option, the only one in its category, or on a whim, but would not be among the first thing to come to mind. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it. 2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money. 1* = How are they still in business? Stay away at all costs!

Also, the plates are enormous, so you'll definitely have some leftovers. If you're near the airport and looking for breakfast, skip Denny's and Waffle House and opt for Sunny Daze. The price point is the same (actually probably better), so you just get way more bang for your buck. Easy choice.

After being seated, we waited about 10 minutes before our server, Diana, came to take our drink order. After placing it, there was another extended wait before we saw her again. While she was assisting another table, I asked about our drinks, and she mentioned she would be right with us, but it was still quite a while before they arrived. Once we received our drinks and placed our food order, service became very limited. When our food was delivered, both my stepson and I had empty drinks, and there was no acknowledgment or offer for refills. I had to ask, which shouldn't typically be necessary. We also requested pico, which took additional time to receive. Throughout the rest of the meal, there were no check-ins to see how the food was or if we needed anything. The next interaction we had was when the check was dropped off. I understand that restaurants can get busy and delays happen, but attentive service, especially something as simple as checking in and keeping drinks refilled, goes a long way. Guests do notice these details, and they directly impact the overall experience, as well as the tips servers receive. I'm sharing this because I know this restaurant is capable of much better, based on past visits. I hope this was just an off day and not the standard moving forward.

It's only halfway through 2026, but I already know this will make my Top 5 restaurants of the year…read more It brings me such joy to happily pay for food that truly deserves its price tag - and I'd gladly pay more. So many higher-end expensive restaurants serve bland, tasteless food, meanwhile this amazing mid-ranged restaurant is serving some of the best dishes I've ever had. The smashed chicken was probably the best chicken dish I have ever had at a restaurant. The skin was perfectly crispy while the meat was juicy and well-seasoned. The ginger and herb salsa verde was so fresh and aromatic. The cilantro rice complimented the lemongrass aioli perfectly. Everything was seasoned perfectly, and I'm usually one to reach for the salt shaker at most restaurants. Smoked olives are a concept I have never considered before. It's a concept that was executed perfectly here. So savory, flavorful, and complex. I'd love to have a few with a dirty martini. Speaking of drinks, my Casino gin cocktail was great. Perfect level of sweetness and tartness. I knew I had to order dessert after how good everything else was, even though I am usually not a dessert person. The oolong tea cake was nothing short of incredible. The tea flavor was subtle but paired well with the fluffy and light honey buttercream. Not too sweet at all. Of course, the service was great too. Our waiter was very attentive and personable. My first experience at 5 points made me realize that this is what restaurants should strive to be. I can tell there is passion poured into every dish with every ingredient thoughtfully melded together. I can't wait to bring everyone I know here so they can experience this too!!

The food and drink selections were plentiful, and the place went from being relatively quiet to hopping with customers of all ages, to quiet again.

I suppose because we're by an airport, in a hotel, that all those things play a big part. Food - mediocre. Ambience - it's a bar/restaurant, not much more to say.
