Long story short, I had a Red Lobster gift card I received for Christmas collecting dust on my desk, the wife had a 1/2 day, so we went to lunch.
I always kind of liked Red Lobster, haven't been there for awhile.
2pm, busy, but no wait.
The hostess sits us promptly and was very pleasant.
We place our orders, I order lobster bisque, garden salad, and the fish and chips, because I love fish and chips.
The salad was garden fresh, lettuce crisp and cool, the blue cheese dressing had real chunks of cheese in it.(surprised me, real chunks of cheese in the cheese salad dressing)
The lobster bisque was beyond delicious, generous pieces of real lobster in there too.
Nice an hot !
The entree (fish and chips) was one perfectly cooked I would say nine inches long, inch and a half thick piece of fresh haddock.
Now if their fish is frozen (like I suspect) then that haddock was one of the finest piece of frozen prepared fish I ever had.
The food was served at the proper intervals, less than three minute wait between salad and entree.
The waitress had a brain, didn't forget anything, got everything right, very nice smile......
The Mrs had the four course special, salad, chowder, eight giant pieces of coconut shrimp, desert.
I'm telling you, this was one pleasant, over the top professional in every aspect, uber delicious meal for two for 35.15 out the door before tip.
She got a half a sawbuck out of me, she both earned and deserved it.
I know, I know, Red Lobster has a certain stigma to it, it's not Ruth Chris, yadda, yadda, yadda, but they got my return business, for sure.
