Red Lobster - Clarksville

I usually post to this site when something is really wrong. Or really right. Tonight was really right, from the host stand to my server, Heather, to the quality of the food and ambiance. The flounder sandwich came out hot and fresh and the sides were good. A simple inexpensive meal that was satisfying in a quiet nook of the bar area. Just what I needed on a cold evening.

I haven't been to this red lobster in years! But while visiting my mom and I stopped by for dinner. The ambiance was like any other red lobster dim lighting, spacious, and this one was pretty clean. We came during shift change so our wait time and service time was a bit long but the waiter was pretty efficient. I got the lobster linguine and my mom got the surf and turf. I'll start with saying my meal was amazing. The lobster ratio to pasta ratio was spot on. The lobster itself was cooked wonderfully, the sauce was really good and not too overpowering. I also tried their new snowglobe sangria which was delicious I would definitely recommend trying it especially if you like sweet drinks. However, my mom was not too thrilled with her meal. She got mashed potatoes and broccoli as her side. She didn't finish her broccoli as it was too salty for her and she ended up sending her steak back. She asked for medium well which she got but it was extremely tough! The manager handled the situation well and replaced her steak with a medium cooked one (we ended up taking that to go so not too sure how it ended up turning out yet lol) The only thing she enjoyed was the lobster tail and mashed potatoes. I would've given a five but unfortunately my mom didn't have the same experience as I did.

If I could leave 0 stars I would our server Heather was on drugs for sure ! She also was not attentive at all she came by maybe 4 times and never brought us our appetizer we were promised a refund and never received it we will NEVER be back again! The food was also bland and soggy.

I just ordered from red lobster for the first time since moving out here and could not be more appalled. I almost want to go to my credit card company and report fraud for this order. 16 dollar shrimp and 14 dollar ceasers salad from red lobster. Horrendous prices for side size portions. Not to mention the shrimp are firmer, larger, and cheaper at panda express. This is borderline disrespectful delivering this to a customer. The 13 dollar stuffed mushrooms came with 6 baby mushrooms with cheese and breadcrumbs on top. Look at the photo with my hand for comparison reasons. And the new cheddar bay shrimp worked out to 2 dollars per shrimp.... For some soggy ass fried shrimp. I cannot speak on the crab legs I was told were fisher than used to others in my house ordered. The 8 dollar baked potato seemed like a horrible deal too. The chicken strips platter was actually a good value for the quantity but it 's freaking Tennessee, you can get chicken strips on any corner here. Calamari was also decent. TLDR: 2 OF MY 12 items were decent. Make sure to bring lube before you try to eat at this location, 1/2 ass quality and portions worse than some fast food chains at steakhouse prices.

Restaurant was very dirty. It was not very busy when we arrived but the host was on the phone for what seemed a long time before hanging up and saying Yes? As if annoyed we had been standing there waiting. We asked if we could sit at the bar and he said, at the bar is okay but all the tables are dirty . The bathroom was filthy. You cannot charge premium prices and have a gas station standard of cleanliness. We left.
