Our Review

  Friday, February 4th, 2005    6:00 PM

Menu

 Ultimate Feast: Broiled Maine lobster tail, Snow Crab legs, shrimp scampi and fried shrimp.

 Price: 22.00 (each)

  Scores are based on a 5 fork system. Each element can get up to 100 points. The results are added, then divided by 3 to get the nearest half fork. We judged Red Lobster based on the following criteria.   
Atmosphere    
  Lighting 85 (much better this time around)
  General Decor 80 (Standard fare for Large Chain Rest.)
  Cleanliness 75 (Average. Unusual smell in lobby)
Service    
  Timing 90 (Service was prompt for being so busy)
  Politeness 95 (A+ all the way. Good Job Charles)
  Efficiency 95 (He truly cared about our comfort)
Food    
  Presentation 90 (Well placed, nicely done)
  Temperature 90 (To order)
  Taste 90(Very good, but not fantastic)
Price    
  Portion-to-Price 85 (Good bargain)
  Non-Entree Price 70 (Drinks and Soups were very pricy 1.95+)
  Overall Cost 85 (Depends on menu selection. This was a good deal)
Overall Satisfaction    
  Left Full? 90 (Good Meal)
  Left Happy? 90 (No birthday clapping at next table this time. Hit or miss here folks.)
  Left Tip? 95 (Bill 47.05, Tip 12.95, Waiter was destined for better things. Charles really had a handle on his duties.)
Total Points   1305 Points = 4.5 Forks

Summary:  Very good food. Average atmosphere, but don't go here for a romantic night out...

Reccommendation: Good seafood if there aren't any fresh caught dining areas nearby.

Side Note: As we all know, restaurants are hit or miss with service, food quality, and general atmosphere. This was a busy Friday night (20+ people waiting for a table the whole time we were there), yet our server, Charles, had a smile, pep in his step, and truly aimed to please. I must say, that is a nice thing to see these days considering the usual lack of respect most servers give. The other staff members that evening were also focused, and intent on serving us all to the best of their abilities. Way to go team!
