Best food around in an old schoolhouse. We go fairly often and is my Grandsons favorite place to eat.

We used to frequent about once a week this week. The food was not so great. It just was off from what it normally is.

It's been a while since I have eaten at Red Lobster, but the food was good. I'm sorry but I just…read moredon't like to see a waitress with piercings in their nose. It looks dirty to me and unattractive. Also, the waitress brought out a basket of biscuits, but as she was holding the basket up against her chest and the biscuits were rubbing against her shirt. Also, instead of putting a tea spoon in the unsweetened tea so she would know it was unsweetened, she put a straw. I think some retraining needs to be done and I don't care what you think but, appearance means everything. As Paul Harvey once said, dress for success and you will be successful. If people find you up beat, happy, clean, nice looking, you will make good tips. Appearance and attitude mean the difference in success and failure. ​

While my sister and I were staying in Tennessee, a snowstorm had shut down several restaurants. I…read morehadn't eaten at Red Lobster in a long time, so we decided to go there. Because of the storm, there were only two employees running the entire restaurant. There was a wait to be seated, a delay in getting our food, and another wait when it was time to pay. But honestly, we didn't mind given the circumstances. The restaurant didn't have the heater running, so eating inside felt like we were dining outside in the snow. Despite that, the waiter was friendly and attentive, doing the best he could while juggling everything. I absolutely love Red Lobster's biscuits. They were warm, buttery, filled with cheddar, and completely addictive. I ordered the Lobster Lover's Duo, and everything was delicious. I was so full I didn't even have room for dessert.

"Likely the best wings I've eaten."…read more When my niece suggested Craven Wings, I was a little uneasy, but we were there to visit her college, so off we went. I was impressed on entry - everyone was extremely friendly, even the customers greeted us. We placed orders, and visited for a while. Next thing I knew, huge amounts of food were being placed on our table - the wings are made as you order them - none frozen. I was accustomed to the flash fried variety at one of the chain restaurants back home. This was NOT a frozen/fried wing. This was a carefully breaded, fresh-fried wing, shaken in a really nice sauce, served with a curly french-fried potato string. Just a really good meal. I was afraid ordering just 10 was going to leave me a little hungry - nope. I barely finished all 10, and I remain impressed with them. Everyone in our party had a really good meal, and I truly look forward to the next time we're down in Johnson University country so I can get back to Craven Wings! A "Strongly Recommended" from this guy!

He got the chicken sandwich grilled with side of fries and 6 winless wings mild. Teriyaki wings were good but super saucy. Onion rings i was disappointed, to salty and some of them were asking of the purple onion. You take a bite all the batter falls off. His grilled chicken sandwich he liked however the bun is huge and the chicken small not worth the price. Bonless.mild he really enjoyed. Fries were soggy very disappointed. Service was amazing of course but food could use some help.

Food is excellent. Nice relaxing atmosphere…read more Staff was very friendly. Will definitely go again.

This review is based solely on our experience, and I apologize in advance for the length, but I…read morefeel it's important to share. We made a reservation in advance for a party of seven to celebrate a birthday. Upon arrival, we were told it would only be a few minutes before we were seated. Those "few minutes" turned into approximately 30-35 minutes. When we were finally seated, our table was directly in front of the kitchen--not exactly my preferred location, but we decided to make the best of it. Unfortunately, being able to see directly into the kitchen turned out to be one of the worst parts of the experience. We watched the kitchen staff, chef, and manager behaving in what appeared to be a completely unprofessional manner, with staff goofing around rather than focusing on service. We ordered mostly steaks, as you would expect when dining at a premier steakhouse, including several of the more expensive items on the menu. It took approximately 45 minutes for our food to arrive. During that time, we continued to watch the kitchen staff carrying on and playing around in a completely open, visible kitchen. When our food finally arrived, three of the steaks were significantly overcooked. Mine was practically raw and had a terrible "musty" taste and smell. At the time, I chose not to complain, but looking back, I absolutely wish I had. For a birthday celebration at a chophouse, this was hands down one of the worst dining experiences I've ever had. Our bill was nearly $400 before the tip, which makes the quality of the food, service, and overall experience even more disappointing. My advice: stay away from this particular location. Based on our experience, it simply wasn't worth the money or the frustration.
