Casual crustacean-inspired chain serves up diet-defying seafood dishes in a family-friendly environment..
In Short
Live lobsters wriggle in a tank inside this seafood emporium, where nautical-patterned booths and colorful, fish-shaped tables in the bar area add subdued touches of whimsy to the room's classy dark wood accents. The menu can be downright decadent, with starters of artichoke lobster dip, seafood fondue, and crab-stuffed mushrooms. Entrees feature lighter, grilled fare like mahi-mahi and North Atlantic sea scallops, along with signature lobster dishes, snow crab legs, and jumbo fried shrimp platters.

Pretty good for a stereotypical chain restaurant.
I came here on a Tuesday night for their Endless shrimp feast. Not a bad price and the shrimp was pretty good, although I wouldn't recommend their new buffalo style shrimp. I also did the add-on of half a pound of snow crab legs, which were pretty good; the meat came out of the shell nicely. I ordered a pina colada beverage which wasn't mixed that well--strong on the coconut mixer and weak on the pineapple juice and rum. Service from our waitress was excellent; she was very personable and checked up on us often. Overall, I'm usually happy with my meals at Red Lobster.
