Great food - great service. OK, people think "Red Lobster" and think eh, restaurant chain. I personally haven't been to a Red Lobster in a number of years myself. I was very pleased. With kids in tow and a skeptical wife who only ever raved about the biscuits, all of us enjoyed the food.

My wife was beside herself at the amount of Garlic grilled shrimp my son got from the kids selection, and he said they were great. The fish the rest of us got were liked by all of us. I had the blackened salmon, the wife was happy with her crab crusted talapia. I also had the wood-grilled garlic shrimp and some snow crab legs that were great.

The interior setting at the Lancaster location is actually very nice. The pictures and decor on the walls add to the theme of a seaside restaurant setting.

Service was quick and friendly. Don't be fooled, Red Lobster has great food and they will take care of you. My kids even took notice.

The Best Red Lobster Anywhere. We were never fans of red lobster until we moved here 3 years ago. This red lobster has really good food and excellent management. The bar tender is awesome and she knows us and what we drink the minute we walk in the door. We usually sit at the bar since its nonsmoking but when we sit in a booth, the servers are still pretty good. I think we only had 2 bad servers in the years we have been going there and they both were gone shortly after. The managers are nice and really know how to take care of customers. The food is good 95% of the time and when there is a problem they fix it quick no hassles-no issues. If you have not been to a red lobster in years, like us when we first went a few years ago, this is a good one to go to. The grilled fish is incredible. The only thing to avoid is the crab legs. They tend to not prep them right and the meat sticks to the shell often. Also, they hold them over so they can be pretty old by the time you get them and not the best of quality. Otherwise, we've had everything on the menu and it's all good. Especially those cheese biscuts that are addictive! Highly recommend this place in an area of bad restaurants.

Casual crustacean-inspired chain serves up diet-defying seafood dishes in a family-friendly environment.. In Short
Live lobsters wriggle in a tank inside this seafood emporium, where nautical-patterned booths and colorful, fish-shaped tables in the bar area add subdued touches of whimsy to the room's classy dark wood accents. The menu can be downright decadent, with starters of artichoke lobster dip, seafood fondue, and crab-stuffed mushrooms. Entrees feature lighter, grilled fare like mahi-mahi and North Atlantic sea scallops, along with signature lobster dishes, snow crab legs, and jumbo fried shrimp platters.
