    Mary was our waitress and she took very good care of us for our anniversary. She is very knowledgeable in several stations at Red Lobster. She fixed our drinks from the bar when we arrived. Then she chipped in and waited on our table. She checked on us several times and helped me with the portal when checking out our Bill. She made us feel special and was a fabulous waitress. Food was cooked to our liking and we would definitely go back.
