We were seated promptly, but waited probably 10 minutes before being initially attended to with menus and asking for drinks. I’m patient, but this is an extraordinary amount of time for restaurant service. This was surprising, given the restaurant was hardly full. Our server was kind and respectful however. The food was decent, the steak was good. It’s not fantastic, but good, I was satisfied. Pleasant overall experience, however, given the lack of timelines and relative food quality, I’m not certain I’d come back.

We haven’t been to a Red Lobster in over a decade and though it’s a chain restaurant, it definitely has its place. That being said, we went and tried their weekly special where you can order unlimited shrimp and it was actually quite fantastic at that price point. Our waitress was very attentive and cordial, which could be quite rare at restaurants in downtown Silver Spring. All the shrimps were cooked well and overall they did a great job, not too shabby for a chain restaurant. It was a weeknight and the restaurant was a bit empty, which honestly we didn’t mind.

When I got there the bartender was so nice and everything was done quickly. Once I came home I checked and the salmon was burnt, the biscuits were dry and hard, the rice was dry as well and hard the other one was dry as well but not hard as the first one, the shrimp and clam were undercooked ,raw still. Overall the experience was nice but the food was not it.

We wanted to quench our thirst for fresh shelfish and the nostalgia of the Red Lobster experience. We got it here. I would write on and on about it but there really was no weak point so A+ 100% great. We warmed up with some tea in some very nice mugs. Our bread arrived warm, excellent lobster and snow crab followed. See the pics for yourself. The gloves helped me make less of a mess. Thanks!

I don’t know if the hostess was having a bad day or what. But she set the tone for how the experience went. She seemed upset when I stated that I didn’t think my mother would want to sit in the bar area. I mean the restaurant was relatively empty on a Monday afternoon so why not seat us in the dining area instead of stating “well pick where you want to sit”! Like really lady. The server who delivered our food basically just dropped our food off and before I could tell her that she forgot my mother’s salad she was gone. Which caused me to get up and ask for her salad. My mother ordered the all you can eat shrimp and had to flag our waitress down to place her second request. Because she NEVER came back to the table to ask if my mother wanted to order additional shrimp. Now back to the hostess. I asked her if she could get our waitress because we did not see her to ask if RL has senior citizen discount. She said she would, but proceeded to start cleaning off the table behind us. My mother asked her if they had the discount and she said no and proceeded to remove glasses and start cleaning off our table. I advised her that my mother was still drinking her arnold palmer at which time she’s looking around as if to say oh which glass is hers. Ma’am you will not return the glass to the table thinking someone is going to drink out of it after you just finished removing items from TWO tables. At this juncture it was a wrap.

I haven’t been to Red Lobster in years, so I was especially glad when I bit into a delicious cheddar bay biscuit last week. I also enjoyed my sirloin, green beans, and mashed potatoes with Norwegian lobster. I can’t remember the name of my drink, but it was recommended by my waitress, Isabella, and it was really good. All the staff were very nice and they did a good job of making sure everyone was socially distanced since they don’t offer outdoor seating. This was a nice little dinner the other night, I’m looking forward to returning for some lobster soon!

They have little parking in their lot on most days so you have to usually use the garage. They don’t pay great attention to special details section of online orders but server was nice and place was extremely clean. They also appeared to have nice cocktails.

service was very slow despite not being crowded. server was very pushy about asking me to download the app/join the rewards program despite me saying no twice, looking shocked or flabbergasted when i continued to deny the offer. (i wouldn’t fault her for it considering she probably gets pressured to do that.) manager was very apologetic about my food experience (detailed below) and did not make me pay for the cheesecake.
a new lobster flatbread is advertised, but its just the lobster pizza from before. drink prices are not disclosed which is a red flag. the lobster dip was quite good, but the pizza was very dry, and the cheesecake had shards of ice in it from being frozen or having frozen components and was only barely edible by mashing it all up into a gross sludge i couldn’t bring myself to finish.
this particular location used to be much better than it currently is.
edit: i do not use facebook and i’m pretty sure most people from my generation share the sentiment. you guys need a better avenue of communication lol.

We came here on a Friday night before a concert at the Fillmore. We were seated immediately and was surprised as the restaurant was pretty empty at 6pm. I ended up getting the Ultimate Shrimp feast where you select 3 kinds of shrimp and then can get additional selections afterwards. The food was ok, not great but good. The service staff were nice but we were a group of 5 and seemed that when they brought the cheddar biscuits out it was only enough for one per person and they never brought more out again. Some others got the fish and chips special for $15.99 and were not happy as the fish was overcooked and only had one filet, seemed like it should have had two for that price and other restaurants always seem to serve two filets for the similar price. Doubt we will come back due to the just ok food.
