   The service was okay the waitress was nice but was always gone and out of sight and unable to find for periods of time. The food was not good everything was not cooked well. Soft fried shrimp, salad was brown not fresh, the crab legs were extremely small for the price. Experience was not great and will not return again

   We decided to eat out for Christmas. Joining me for dinner was my brother and daughter. We arrived for our 4:30 pm. dinner reservations and were seated at our table quickly. The restaurant was not crowded.i remember thinking we came at a good time. We were greeted by our Kemara W. she was very patient with us as we order our dinner and drinks. After we received our drinks I noticed that it was taking a long time for appetizers to arrive (about 20 to 30 minutes). The appetizers were hot and delicious. However, I was disappointed in my lobster bisque. It was cold and no pieces of lobster meat. The waitress did apologize for the soup arriving late. We had an extremely long wait for entrees. Of course all of our entrees included a lobster tail. My lobster tail was under cooked. So I took it home reheated it (who whould want to that)? I have been dreaming of a tasty lobster since I made the reservations. We were told that some members of the cooking staff were new. However, Christmas evening was not a time for new staff. You want your " A" staff on so your customers will want to return. It whould have been nice if the manager was there to oversee everything.

   Priory reservation was ignored and simply treated as a walk in. While I understand that it’s not a guaranteed reservation, what’s the point of them using the open table platform if the customer will jut be treated as a regular walk in and told the wait is longer than an hour.

   The food isn’t like how it used to be, service was good even though John was working hard taking care of other customers.. I only had a little bit of crab meat but John did get me more…

   Waited 45 minutes to get seated and we did the call ahead. Waited another 45 minutes for our order to be taken, and when the waiter did take our order waited an additional 20 minutes for drinks that we never got so we left. It was not crowded or busy no excuse for the long wait. Will not be going back to the Red Lobster on Roosevelt Blvd again.
