Red Lobster - Burlington

Took my boyfriend here for his birthday and the food was really good. The dish he ordered was all fried though, it didn't state in the menu it would be fried. We thought we would get actual mussels not deep-fried everything; But it actually tasted good. For our appetizer we had the lobster dip with chips. Barely any lobster on it but it still tasted awesome aside from some of the chips being soggy in oil the homemade salsa that came with the dip was bland. My dish had 3 flavours of shrimp on it. The pasta was perfect. At other locations it's either always watery or bland. This location pasta and sauce consistency was perfect! The garlic butter shrimp was amazing.. Wish more came with it. The fried shrimp was also good too. I never tried the cocktail sauce it came with. I upgraded my side to a bacon mac and cheese and I didn't personally did like the flavours but my boyfriend upgraded his side to the lobster mashed potato and it was delicious but barely any lobster again. We ordered a strawberry daiquiri which was good, the pina colada not so much. One thing we didn't like is there's a machine at the table which you can use to pay, play games etc and it doesn't state that there is a charge to play games. On the machine you're able to see the total of the bill change as things are added and I noticed there was a $2.50 charge for the game we played which it kicked us out of because we took to long to continue. (Couple questionnaire) is what we played. It turns out its unlimited games for $2.50 but it wasn't stated or explained to us by our waitress. Also they never brought us biscuits until I asked halfway into our meal for some. It was not busy at all either. It was about 3 or 4pm. Overall I would give the entire experience a 4 stars. But pasta and garlic butter shrimp deserve a 5 stars.

We had a very professional waitress who was on our wavelength from the get go and showed up within seconds of us thinking of wanting something, as if she read our minds. The food was good too and the kids’ activity paper/sheet was more creative than most places. Certainly on the pricier side but value for money was good.

The dining experience was quite pleasant. The serving staff was friendly and appropriately punctual without rushing us. All menu options were available and were brought out timely. The seafood stuffed mushrooms were delicious! We ordered the bay Barbour bake and Seafarers feast, both of which did not disappoint! The only drawback was the lack of option for a smaller dessert size. I would have preferred a cheaper smaller quantity vs the copious amount of sugar the large portion provided. Overall I would recommend a visit here to satiate any seafood craving. Don’t forget to check out the daily deals before planning your trip!

Not bad for takeout! We picked up, so food wasn’t as hot as eating in, but it’s totally understandable. We’ve dined in here before and it’s been very good. The shrimp and lobster linguine could have had a little bit more pasta. Lots of shrimp, but more noodles would have balanced it out nicer.

Food and Service was absolutely incredible! Our Server, Josh U, went above and beyond. Definitely ask for him when you go, he makes the experience so much more enjoyable!
