Reviews for Red Lobster in Tacoma, WA
Giving 3 stars because the staff was amazing, attentive and had great personality. In chain places, this is what saves... everything. The server at one point said, if you're coming to red lobster, your getting good lobster. He made good on this after2 of our group returned their lobsters because they were rubbery, and one burnt. You could see the char on it. One of mine was alittle over done, but the other was rubbery and encrusted to the shell that while trying to get it out, part of the shell flungacross the table. It still tasted well enough, but a couple of 40 dollar lobster tails shouldn't fight back after it's alreadydead. All said, the steak was really great. A couple of us had great lobster, the seasoning was great, and they had really goodchicken strips of all things that slightly reminded you of a good home made chicken strip with a nice crunch that was also soft.Oh, drinks weren't bad either compared to a lot of chains. They weren't stiff, but you could actually taste the alcohol. I'dlike to come back for the chicken, as the flavor was as good as Popeye's in the same parking lot in it's own way in a morenatural taste, but much less crunch and the wait staff, who graciously put up with a lot and remained very great. I wouldrecommend going when it's not busy so they can keep an eye on any lobster under a heat lamp a little closer. Still a verypleasant experience all in all. Oh, the biscuits changed, seem more like a soft roll almost now. Still tasty. Read more
Really disappointed in the quality of the food. The lobster was basically impossible to remove from the shell, rubbery and way... over cooked. The lobster cheese added to the potatoes was overly salted and so were the potatoes. We usually really enjoycoming here but the food was awful this time around. I understand we dined at 830 PM and they close at 10 PM but I feel for whatwe paid that at least it should be cooked correctly and under seasoned is better than over. It wasn't that edible. The staff wassuper friendly. Read more

Wen made our dining experience amazing. He took our orders right away and made sure we were comfortable and taken care of... throughout our entire stay. He never overstayed or check on us too often. The food was amazing and I was reminded again why Ilove coming back to this Red Lobster location. The choices are plentiful and enough for anyone looking to switch things up oncein a while. Wen answered any questions we had and even accommodated us with a request that wasn't listed on the menu. Thanksteam for making our date perfect! Read more
Server was great. The only thing that bothered me was adding crab cake to my order. I got one itty bitty crab cake for 7.99. it... was the size of a Jimmy dean sausage. You know the round flat breakfast sausage. Yeah it looked like that, just a little bigger.Everything else was fine, my lobster pasta, and she got steak, lobster and scallops. The cheddar biscuits are way smaller thanbefore also. Read more
Very disappointed in service , quality of food and just everything. The steak I had was so tough you couldn't chew it the... coconut shrimp was over cooked and greasy. The waiter didn't bring my salad until the end and I had to ask for it. The waiternever came back one time and ask to fill our water or was there anything else we needed nothing. Read more
