Red Lobster - Lanham

It's been years since I've been to R.L. But they did not disappoint. The food was delicious, especially the cheddar biscuits that were soft, and very tasty. I was given a bag full to take home with my take out food.

10/22- Sat at the bar, had a great meal a couple of drinks. Antoinette the bartender was awesome. Spoke with the GM. Highly recommended, I will be back. Thank you for the great service. Empty glasses! 6/23- Sat at the bar again for a couple of drinks. Shae, the bartender, was great. I ordered the a Long Island Ice Tea, B52 Shrimp. Highly recommended, I truly enjoyed myself.

March 2023 Update: 4-star service. Food was great as always but service was lacking. I blame it on it was very late, less than an hour to closing. 6/24/2022, Gave this particular Red Lobster another chance and it was much better. Solid 4-star visit. Food and service were great. The atmosphere was a bit loud but my lobster, salmon, shrimp and calamari were delicious. Also our server was very attentative bringing refills be we finished our current drinks, checking on us and giving updates. PREVIOUS REVIEW I luv Red Loster, but today service was ehh, b/c of lack of communication thru out service. First they said the table was ready but it wasn't for it still needed clearing/cleaning. Then someone else took out order b/c our waitress was busy at that time. This I can understand b/c of how things r nowadays but what I can't accept is the waitress never taking the time to learn the order from the one who took our order. She came back to us to find out the drinks and then we had to keep reminding her about items we were missing. At the end we were still missing an item but just let it go as we were done for today. The lack of comms between staff was so evident and that could be felt and tasted in the food. It was good but not enjoyable especially since we had to keep asking. I shouldn't ever have to ask where is my

On 02 April 2023, I came to this Red Lobster for my mother's birthday. We had one of the worst dining experiences I've ever had. The service was utterly terrible. Upon seating, the tables were not clean. We did not receive any utensils. It took nearly 15 min to get our order taken. It took another 10 min to get our bread. It took 25 min total to receive the cocktail drink we ordered. Then after nearly an hour the part of the order came out, the other part was still being prepared. The server still did not give us any utensils. She ended up giving us their takeout PLASTIC utensils. Who can eat steak with a plastic fork and knife?? In a sit down restaurant? This is absolutely ridiculous. The server barely apologized or seemed to care. No manager came to say anything. Easily one of the worst dining experiences ever in my entire life. Place deserves negative stars. Would give them negative 5 stars if I could.

Had a nice time. Atmosphere is fabulous. Margaritas very good
