I love seafood and Red Lobster Restaurant too. They have some lunch specials on the menu which are less costly than dinner meals. However, you get a smaller portion of food at lunchtime. They still have their delicious cheddar cheese biscuits that they bring to your table before your meal is served. There is not any extra charge for them and if you want another batch the wait staff will be happy to bring you more. They serve both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. There is a small bar area inside the restaurant. When you first enter this establishment you will see a tank of live 🦞 lobsters with their claws fastened. Kids are especially curious and want to look at them. The restaurant is sometimes busy especially at dinner time. If so, the host or hostess will take your name and call you as soon as a table becomes available. The bathrooms are clean and located in the lobby near the front doors. The service is good in my experience and I have been a customer for many years. There have been some changes over the years such as price increases, employees and also the menu. Overall, I am still pleased with Red Lobster

It was a great experience as it was not crowded even though it is Mother's Day weekend and the service was capable. The waitress was attentive and the food was shared in an adequate amount of time. So the atmosphere was inviting and the dinner was pleasantly served. So if you are in the Poughkeepsie area and you are flowing around Route 9 then give Red Lobster a visit.

Horrible stale food overcooked shrimp horribly slow service servers are smart mouth avoid going here….. February 2nd my husband and I he a 73 year old veteran and myself self employed. My husband wanted to go to red lobster had a craving for fish he is a country boy at heart. Now our server was male he was very helpful and cheerful he also stated he was a new employee a young man I assume to be in between my sons ages 27 and 21, my husband and I knew what we wanted just not how to order it, the server helped a lot with making our decision, if he was my son I’d be proud. Now the restaurant at that time was staffed with other ppl in his age group or younger, The fish my husband ordered was more bread than fish, my salmon tasted previously frozen looked cheap, my broccoli and rice undercooked hard no flavor. My shrimp looked as if it had been deep fried several times the pieces so small I wondered if they just gave me table scraps, wait when being seated the table next two my husband and I was seated two extreme loud and obviously intoxicated visibly aged woman, the first 15 mins we had to endure high pitched noises no one asked them to at least quiet down, finally they left visibly intoxicated. Not wanting to complain I ordered desert to stay here’s when our waiter snubbed me I ordered my desert my waiter walks off towards an area on the other side of the bar I assume the kitchen another table’s seated in his section he came out of the kitchen minus my cake took this tables order laughed joked went got the tables drinks continued to chat some more. Now over in the kitchen area bar area this is when I become aware that the staffers are all immature kids not team players 3 just standing there no one took the initiative to help . I can hear giggling and laughing. Finally my desert arrives , lost all taste for it ! telling my husband I’m ready to go , he goes to bathroom leaves me the wallet try for five mins to get staffs attention gentle everyone is ignoring me so finally get up go to bar simply state I’d like to pay my bill and can no longer wait little girl at the bar said something condescending in a mocking tone. To be honest knowing ppl she got it from her mother, cause when the little girl scrunched up her face thinking it was cute she aged herself, I told her she should work on her personality cause her looks won’t help. At this time my server was coming from the back I handed him the money and left oh the restaurant had a total of four table occupied and one curbside, it was not busy enough to warrant any wait! Now I’m happy I’m not who I used to be aging has mellowed me out. It’s not the staffs fault it’s managements and the franchise fault! I had stale, undercooked, freezer burned food because there is no standard no pride no respect!We don’t need red lobster nor did we really want red lobster and red lobster doesn’t need or want our business. my husband went through a lot to get what he’s got his money pays for quality and red lobster didn’t deliver quality food nor quality service also it’s old outdated dirty turn the lights low all you want smelled the rug seen the stains, talk to the young ppl you hire about being professional, rotate your frozen food so it does taste like freezer burn fully cooked food find a better supplier for whatever those shrimp, thank you the old me would have been taking out of there in handcuffs, I didn’t come there expecting to get freebies or extras I wanted what my money was worth and that did not happen.

You may pay ahead and select curbside pickup when you place your order. Then drive up to one of the designated curbside pickup parking spots at the restaurant where you placed the order, and call the phone number indicated on the sign at the parking space to let the restaurant know you have arrived. A Red Lobster employee will bring your order hot and fresh to your car.
