Red Lobster Tampa Busch Boulevard

There was nobody at the hostess section and once the hostess arrived she didn't even seem like she wanted to be there, once we were seated it took twenty minutes to have our drinks delivered from the bar. According to the waitress it was the managers fault and we did get a discount for our troubles. But I don't think I will go back to this location, until they learn what customer service is about.

AJ is awesome! My drink hit the spot. You have to try the Tito’s strawberry lemonade!

We were visiting Busch gardens for our daughters birthday and decided to come to red lobster. Red lobster is usually one of my favorite seafood places to eat. By the looks of the parking lot the place looked pretty empty. Walked in and was told it was going to be about a 15 min wait. (No big deal) we were seated at 7pm. It took forever for us to get our drinks. We ordered our food right away. We didn’t get our food for almost an hour after we ordered. Our actual waiter was nice but it seemed as the place was short staffed. The food was not super great. 2 out of 3 dishes were not great. They didn’t have anybody cleaning up dirty tables. Almost every table in the place had trash and food on it. People behind us were also complaining that their food was not good. I’m not usually one to complain but all I can say is wow. Thank goodness this is not our normal red lobster.

They were busy but the service was good and the food was delicious

I tried to order 2 different cocktails and each time was told they didn't have the proper ingredients. These were on the hilighted drink specials menu. On the 3rd attempt, finally chose something they could make. Other than that the food was excellent, no complaints and our waiter was very nice and accommodating.
