Reviews
From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warmth and professionalism that set the tone for an exceptional dining experience. The customer service was impeccable—attentive, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. The atmosphere was inviting and well-maintained, perfect for a relaxing meal with family or friends.
Now let’s talk about the food: absolutely outstanding. The standout dish for me was the Dragon Calamari—bold, flavorful, and plated with finesse. It rivals offerings from five-star restaurants and deserves its own spotlight on the menu.
What impressed me most was the clear influence of Red Lobster’s new President and CEO. You can feel the shift—in the elevated menu, the energized staff, and the overall commitment to excellence. It’s refreshing to see a legacy brand evolve with such intentionality.
Highly recommend this location. Red Lobster McDonough is setting a new standard for casual dining.
My daughter and I went to the McDonough Red Lobster around 8:15 PM. It was not busy, so we expected normal service. Unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing.
After being seated, it took over five minutes for our waiter to even come to the table. My daughter ordered the Cajun Chicken Pasta, and I ordered a soup and salad. We also asked if we could have the cheddar biscuits brought out with our waters.
About 10 minutes passed, and the waiter returned saying he had forgotten what our drinks were. We reminded him and again asked for bread. He finally brought our waters, but no biscuits.
I asked again for the bread. Meanwhile, he continued serving other tables. We watched multiple waitresses bring biscuits out to their tables while we were still sitting there with only water.
Around 8:30 PM, after asking again, he finally brought a basket with four biscuits. We were hungry and ate them quickly. We asked for more because none of our food had arrived yet — no soup, no salad, and no pasta — while other tables were receiving full meals.
By 9 PM, still no food had arrived. I asked for more biscuits again and was told they were “being made.” At that moment, another server walked by with two full baskets of biscuits, which was confusing.
I eventually got up and asked another waitress for bread. She tried to say there wasn’t any left, but moments later the manager came out with a basket of biscuits. At that point, after waiting 45 minutes with no food, I was so frustrated that I decided to leave. I also didn’t feel comfortable eating food from a table where service had been handled so poorly.
This was extremely disappointing. We simply came in to enjoy dinner together, and instead left hungry and frustrated. I hope management looks into what happened that night because the service we experienced was unacceptable.
Took 7 minutes to bring to go boxes. Took another 10 to check out. It wasn’t busy so excuses for amount of time having to sit around. Need to do much better in the customer service department and making customers feel wanted. The young gentleman at the front helped out by at least taking our drink orders and brought basket of bread. This helped the experience and why we gave two stars.
My meal was the coconut shrimp (terrible, sorry) and broccoli which was a little salty but I liked it. The problem I have is with their misleading of pricing regarding their baked potato & what they consider “loaded” as it is an additional price. So to get a LOADED baked potato there is about $6.00! Comparable restaurants (Longhorn; Outback; OCharley’s; Cheddars) prices for a loaded (butter; sour cream; chives; cheese AND bacon) range from $2.99 to $3.99. So for that SAME loaded baked potato here at Red Lobster is close to $6! The way they have it presented on the menu is perhaps deceiving.
The server made a snarky remark to me as well but because she was young, I let her have that one but still informed management about it. I spoke to the General Manager (Jermaine) who told me to contact Guest Relations for further help as that’s all he could do. Interesting!
