At Red Lobster, we don’t just serve your seafood favorites—we serve an experience that makes you happy. That can’t-stop-smiling, pass-the-Cheddar Bay Biscuits kind of happy. We call it Reel Happiness. It’s the joy that comes when the lobster hits the table, the shrimp hits just right, and the butter’s perfect for double-dipping. Whether you’re celebrating a milestone or just indulging on any given day, every visit feels like an occasion even if there isn’t one. So pull up a chair, grab a biscuit (or three). We’ve got seafood, smiles, and good vibes. Come experience Reel Happiness at your Ronkonkoma Red Lobster.

Me and my husband went there for our 32nd wedding anniversary. It was amazing (the food, staff and place was so clean). We were served by an amazing woman named “Rose”. She made a card for us and surprised us with a amazing dessert. It really made our anniversary the best. Then the hostess came over and congratulated us and spoke to us for a little bit. It was great! We plan on going back there for both of our birthdays in December with family this time.

We walked in and was immediately greeted by Jameson who was so sweet! We have 2 boys – 4&6 years old. Jameson offered them to pet the lobster which was such a cool experience. She took time to take out a lobster and talk to the boys. Rose was our waitress she was so kind and friendly and checked in on us multiple times, she made us feel like we were the only ones in the restaurant. The food came out in great timing and the chocolate cake was so fudgy and delicious. We are looking forward to coming back here very soon!

Came to celebrate my sister’s birthday food was delicious and came out quick since it wasn’t that busy for lunch. Wish service was better though our server was gone for long period of time and just waiting on the bill took awhile.

Rose is exceptional! Service was fast! Menu options was explained in a very effective way. Food came out hot and she was taking care of her entire section on her own without missing a beat. Even sang happy birthday to a nearby table on her own. Very heart warming. Thank you Rose for your service today.

I had a great experience at Red Lobster. Our server Melissa was incredibly professional, personable, and attentive throughout the entire meal! Drinks were always refilled, food came out hot and fresh, and she made sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed. You can tell she genuinely cares about her tables and takes pride in her work. Great service makes all the difference, and she absolutely delivered

Tonight, I was looking for dinner and decided to try the Red Lobster near me. Olga my server was great! She arrived table side right away, was very pleasant to talk to, and took my order: Unfortunately, the food hadn’t changed since the last time I ate here in 2021. It was covered in grease! I ordered the Snow Crab Your Way with Cajun Butter and a Rootbeer. The three very tasty Cheddar Bay Biscuits arrived immediately after ordering as well as my Rootbeer. About 15 minutes after that Snow Crab arrived in a pool of melted butter that had been poured over the Crab leg shells. What they called “Cajun Butter” had been poured here and there on the crab shells as well. The “Cajun Butter” did not taste spicy at all and in fact, had an odd, sweet taste. I lived near New Orleans, LA for 27 years. I know what Cajun food tastes like and that was definitely NOT Cajun.
Pouring all that butter and “Cajun Butter” over the shell of the Crab, only made my hands completely covered in butter while dealing with the Crab Legs and didn’t add any flavor to the crab. It also made the forks and claw cracker difficult to hold because everything got covered in butter.
I was only able to eat about 1/2 the legs before I started feeling sick. I asked my server to bring the check while I went into the restroom to wash all that grease off my hands. After a short drive home, I was sick to my stomach for about 15 minutes before “hugging the toilet.” I did feel better afterwards.
I’ve eaten Snow Crab legs at steak houses and fine dining restaurants before. They usually bring you a pound of steaming legs on a dry dinner plate with a cup of melted butter on the side for dipping the crabmeat. I think it’s a better way to serve Crab Legs.
I also think that next time I’ll simply go to Shoprite and get 3 lbs of Snow Crab and 2 lbs of Butter for the same price with a little hassle steaming the legs and melting the butter myself.
Of course, I’ll have to stop by the Red Lobster near me for a box of Cheddar Bay Biscuits to go!

We had a wonderful visit to Red Lobster, and Melissa truly made the night special. Even during a busy shift, she stayed calm and on top of everything our drinks were always filled, our food came out quickly, and she checked in at just the right times. It’s rare to find someone who balances professionalism and friendliness so effortlessly. Melissa’s outstanding service is the reason we’ll be coming back. She’s a true asset to the team!

Rose was absolutely amazing and made our entire dining experience exceptional. From the moment we were seated, she was warm, attentive, and genuinely kind. She knew the menu well, gave great recommendations, and checked in at just the right times without ever being intrusive. Our drinks were never empty, our food came out perfectly timed, and she handled everything with professionalism and a great attitude.
It’s rare to find service that feels both efficient and personal, but Rose truly nailed it. She went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and happy, and it definitely did not go unnoticed. If you’re lucky enough to have Rose as your waitress, you’re in for a great experience. We’ll absolutely be back because of her!
