My parents enjoyed a delicious seafood dinner experience for Valentine’s Day. They had originally planned to go to Texas de Brazil, but my dad’s work schedule conflicted with their reservation time. Their next choice was Red Lobster so I made a reservation. They enjoyed catfish, shrimp, lobster, and all the trimmings!! The ambience in the restaurant was soft and comfortable, and the service was great. They thoroughly appreciated all the love they received on Valentine’s Day.

The staff was great. The food was okay. My soup was served and it was lukewarm at best. The floors were really dirty. There were flies throughout. Well one decided to fly into my soup.
