Red Lobster, Madison, Wisconsin, Seafood Restaurant Details

Food:

Great Red Lobster! All the seafood is outstanding, so are the biscuits, and the chocolate cake desert is delicious! Definitely recommend coming! The service is always quick and pleasant too.

Food:

It is pretty bad when u have to ask your waitress 4 times for A-1 sauce and you then have to get up and go all the way to the front and ask another person for it and then to turn and see wait staff sitting at a table talking and joking with the guests.
REAL GOOD STAFF WORKING DURNING MY FIRST AND LAST VISIT TO THIS PLACE

Food:

Great service!! Had lobster and NY strip. Our waiter Rich when brought food asked us to check if the steak was cooked like we wanted ( medium rare) and since it was medium Well done he took it back and got us a new one! Plus complimentary ice cream!!!
We loved our food.

Food:

I liked this Red Lobster better than others I've been too since the biscuits weren't too greasy! Other than that, the establishment was clean and there was plenty of seating inside. Be aware that they do get very busy during dinner time so I'd recommend planning around that. Their parking lot will fill up during rushes so I usually walk over from the mall parking lot.

Food:

I'm a native New Englander...born and raised. I know seafood. The seafood and fish here are NOT fresh. Preparation is shockingly poor. I ordered the stuffed flounder and scallops. YUCK!!! The limp texture and gray color of the flounder was a dead give away that it was not fresh. The scallops I ordered were overcooked, dry, tough and lacked even the slightest hint of sweetness. The stuffing mixture used in the flounder is the same runny, pink mush used for their stuffed mushrooms. It's absolutely Disgusting!! The stuffed mushrooms are also buried in cheese sauce and the sweet flavor of the lobster is completely lost. No fresh garlic or white wine is detectable on the palette.
The strawberry Margarita I ordered had a nice presentation, but the quality of ingredients and mixing ratios were very disappointing. Not the slightest hint of liquor could be detected in this overly sweet, artificial candy like cocktail. The drink is not reminiscent of and does not boast the freshness of real strawberries. The quality is equal to a can of Budweiser strawberry margarita available at any gas station. Save the 8 bucks and ask for a glass of water with a few fresh sliced strawberries and a slice of lime.
The Decor is outdated, the service is slow. We had to ask for our cold, dry biscuits 4 times before receiving them. Of course, we were the second to be seated in the dining area and last to be served.

I left the restaurant 92.00 lighter, and would have been more satisfied with a fish o filet from Wendy's or Culvers and a bottle of spring water. (seriously).

Shame on you Red Lobster!!!

African American and biracial patrons were clearly segregated from the rest of the patrons. They were seated in a blatant discriminatory fashion. Every minority patron was seated in the same section in the back of the restaurant behind the bar. This area is uncomfortably cold and is shared with the server station. This is obviously the most undesirable section in the entire restaurant and is out of the view of the main dining area. (The main dining area had ample available seating.) Our nearly, non English speaking waitress had to run back and forth from the bar area to service the minority patrons back there, then tend to only us in the dining area. I found it particularly disturbing that we had to be serviced by the bar waitress, while the rest of the patrons in the dining area were serviced promptly the waitress assigned to the dining area.
If your thinking about eating here. I suggest Culvers as a better option. Save your money and time. Get better quality fish ... And if your of African American decent... don't give this establishment your hard earned money just to feed you low quality, poorly prepared seafood and seat you, as if you are the help.
