Red Lobster

We got great service by Dakota. He was attentive and grabbed our table last minute. Best service we have had there and I come to the restaurant when in the area.

In person dining is great and the food is delicious. If you order food for pickup however, you are going to have a bad time. In the last three times that my family has ordered from them, an item has been missing. In this case I didn't get the rice that comes with my meal and my stuffed flounder is tiny. The picture that I've attached was $18.99. I was extremely disappointed with the portion size of the flounder and it doesn't help that they didn't give me one of my sides.

Our visit here was around noon. I ordered the pick three ($25) shrimp scampi, fried shrimp and scallops. Wife ordered the main lobster tail, shrimp skewer ($35) and daughter ordered the main lobster tail on the kids menu ($12) The food here is "okay" but not for the price. My wife's lobster tail and daughters were the same size, very small and just tasted like boiled tail. They gave my daughter a lemon slice but not my wife. Same with the melted butter. We had to ask for more. The shrimp was "okay" seasoning was alright. They forgot my 3rd pick on my order, so I informed the waitress of what had happened and to just remove the 3rd from the bill. What I did receive was the scallops and scampi. The scallops were the size of marbles and I would say I had about 4 oz of them on a plate. Shrimp was about the same portions. Maybe ten French fries (no joke) on the side. Daughter had french fries too and I am not sure who had more. No I do not like leaving negative reviews, but I have to review the whole experience. The staff were nice, forgetful, but nice. They even pulled a lobster out to let my daughter touch it on the way out. If staff were all I was rating, it would be great. The portions were just ridiculously small and way overpriced. $75 before tipping. It was really dark inside and not like a romantic dark. Everything in laminated in dark wood. The tables and booths are dated and things just looked dirty. I tried hard not to complain but I could tell that my wife was disappointed as well. There are many places that are less expensive in Marion and have better food. I just can not recommend this place to anyone. I can't quite figure out how they remain open with these portions, at the quality and pricing. If lobster is what your after, look elsewhere.
