My husband and I recently enjoyed an exceptional early Valentine’s Day dinner at Red Lobster, largely thanks to the outstanding customer service provided by Derrick. The lobster and salmon were both cooked to perfection, boasting a rich and flavorful taste that truly enhanced our dining experience. We extend our sincere gratitude for the welcoming service, which made our evening all the more special.

Our server Vonnie was great at her new job. She was personable, informative of the menu, took the time to help my 82 yo mother sort out what she wanted. The food was hot and served in a timely manner. Vonnie wasn’t afraid to tell me you’ll didn’t have the ginger ale I’d ordered nor there Cuevo gold my husband ordered. She offered resolution. My mom, daughter, and husband were so impressed by Vonnie, my husband requested she have her supervisor come out. Liz introduced herself and we all expressed the outstanding service we received from Vonnie.

I went to Red Lobster, in Waldorf, MD, on a Saturday evening around 6:15 PM, not realizing it was Valentine’s Day. The wait felt long (about 37 minutes just to get on the list), but honestly, that was on me — I chose to go out at peak time on one of the busiest nights of the year. The staff was clearly swamped, and that’s exactly why I’m writing this review: to give credit where it’s deserved.
The two young employees greeting guests, taking names, and seating customers were dealing with a lot of pressure — and some very rude people — but they stayed professional and calm the entire time. One of them was on only his second day (his manager Avery told me that), yet he handled things with real maturity. He apologized for the wait without making excuses, took ownership of the situation, and genuinely tried to help. That level of honesty and customer care goes a long way and is something I really respect.
I asked about seating at the bar, and he explained it was open seating and full menu service. I told him to keep my name on the list just in case, but I’d let him know if I found a seat so I wouldn’t hold up a table — which I did.
My experience at the bar was excellent. The bartender, Chico, along with Dana and Tequila, made me feel like I was having dinner at a relative’s house. Even though they were extremely busy, they stayed friendly, attentive, and genuine. Chico handled the pressure well — no excuses, just professionalism and a great attitude. The conversations felt natural, not forced or transactional, which made the whole experience comfortable and welcoming.
I also watched an employee take a live lobster from the tank to show a few young children who were nervous at first. She encouraged them, educated them, and helped them feel safe enough to touch it. Watching those kids go from scared to smiling was a great moment and honestly made my heart happy.
What stood out most was that this felt less like a chain restaurant and more like a locally owned place that truly cares about its guests. Before leaving, I asked to speak with a manager and ended up meeting the Director of Operations, Shawn/Sean (sorry I didn’t catch the spelling), as well as managers Liz and Avery. I made sure to tell them how impressed I was.
What really stayed with me was watching the managers lead by example. They weren’t standing back just giving orders — they were out on the floor helping run food, seating customers, and supporting their staff during a very busy shift. That kind of leadership matters. It builds respect, strengthens a team, and creates a better experience for customers. I truly hope they keep leading that way, because it shows.
Thank you to everyone there for turning what could have been a stressful Valentine’s rush into such a positive experience. Wishing the entire team continued success, health, and happiness.
Sincerely,
— Jeff B.

I had a wonderful dining experience at Red Lobster! Our server, Jada, was absolutely fantastic—friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. The manager also stopped by to check in, which showed great attention to customer satisfaction. The food was delicious and served hot, just the way it should be. From the fresh biscuits to the perfectly cooked seafood, everything exceeded expectations. The excellent customer service and warm atmosphere made the visit even more enjoyable. Thank you, Jada and the Red Lobster team, for making our evening so memorable. We’ll definitely be back!

Wasn’t actually a great experience for this veteran! Others may had a different experience. Just sharing mine.
What an experience! And not In a good way! I’m sharing this especially with my fellow Vet so you don’t experience the same thing I made a mistake of doing. My first mistake was to go to this website to see where I could go to for a complementary meal today. It was a military site and it listed all of the businesses that were offering discounts or complementary meals,
I went to red lobster I actually just left there. The site that they were listed on was a 2025, however, I found out later that either someone put the wrong year in or whatever the case may be, but it was on a 2025 website for the military. It stated that you could walk in and they will give you a printed voucher for shrimp and chips. Today has been a struggle for me with my fibromyalgia, which is part of my military disability, some days a little bit better than others but today and the last couple days have been very hard on my body, so I go in just to find out that you have to dine in, since I was already there, I just sat and waited for them to see me and my 15-year-old son, once we got seated and the waiter came over.
I did explain to them that I wanted to just be honest with them. I didn’t expect to have to sit in so I would just sit there for a little while to die and then I was going to leave, I had shared the same thing with the lady who takes your name at the front door to get you seated, and she said she totally understood.
I’d also like to share I saw veterans who ordered at the bar and actually took their food out with them long story short they will not let me take the food that they brought a table out after I was honest with them told them that I wasn’t expecting to dine in because of the advertisement, just to find out that they don’t want anyone going to any websites other than theirs for any offers. But they took this food and either gave it to someone else, but they threw it away.
They would not let me take it……so veterans if you go to red lobster be prepared to dine in. They allow some people to take their food with them, but then I guess if you don’t sit long enough you can’t. The manager was very uncooperative and I think his name was Andre or something like that but I guess he threw this food away. By the way he did tell me that even though it’s Veterans Day, they’re a business and need to make money, so they want veterans to dine in and at least buy a soda which I could’ve done, my husband and I have had dinner at this place so many times! As a matter of fact, this was one of our spots when we first started dating, however, this went left, and when I told him OK….thank you, I will share it with other vets. He was like OK and took the food away. In other words, he did not care at all! it makes me wonder what did he do with that plate? Did he dump it in the trash or did he give it to another veteran? I had actually touched several of the shrimp and a fry.

Our server Avonda was amazing. When we first came, we were seated and we waited 20 minutes to be served. My mother went to the bar where Avonda was at and told her that we had not yet been served, and Avonda changed our entire experience. She said “where are you seated, I will come serve you myself. She had a positive attitude the entire time, our biscuits were hot off the oven, our food was correct, and she checked on us multiple times, by the end of our meal, we were satisfied and super pleased with the service we received. We will definitely be coming back, and asking for her as our server. She was absolutely amazing and she made our entire experience worth while❤️❤️
