Regina’s Red Lobster: A Seafood Feast 🦞🍴
Today, we finally checked off a long-awaited dining spot: Red Lobster! 🎉 We’d been craving their famous seafood for ages, and let me tell you, it did not disappoint. From the moment we walked in, the warm, nautical-themed atmosphere made us feel right at home—think cozy booths, soft ocean-inspired decor, and the faint aroma of buttery seafood wafting through the air. It was the perfect setting for a delicious feast! 🌊 We went all out, ordering three main dishes and two appetizers—and wow, were we impressed by the portions! By the end of the meal, we had plenty of leftovers to take home (a happy problem, if you ask me), which just goes to show how generous and satisfying each dish was. 🥡 Let’s start with the star of the show: the Seafood Platter! 🦞🦀 It was a seafood lover’s dream come true, piled high with tender lobster tails, juicy snow crab legs, crispy fried shrimp, and savory 咖喱虾 (curry shrimp) swimming in a rich, aromatic sauce. The lobster tail was cooked to perfection—sweet, succulent, and easy to crack open, with that melt-in-your-mouth texture we all love. The crab legs were meaty and flavorful, while the fried shrimp had a golden, crunchy coating that gave way to tender, sweet shrimp inside. And the curry shrimp? So 香浓 (fragrant) with a hint of warmth, making every bite feel like a little flavor adventure. 🤤 Next up: the Lobster Pasta! 🍝 This creamy delight was a hit too—al dente pasta tossed in a velvety sauce, studded with chunks of sweet lobster. The sauce was rich but not heavy, with a subtle briny kick from the lobster that tied everything together. We found ourselves twirling forkfuls of pasta, savoring how the sauce clung to each strand, and picking out every last bit of lobster. It’s the kind of dish that feels indulgent but totally worth it! Then there was the Salmon with Mashed Potatoes 🐟🥔—a classic done right! The salmon was perfectly seared, with a crispy outer layer and a tender, flaky interior that practically melted on the tongue. It was seasoned just right, letting the natural flavor of the fish shine. And the mashed potatoes? Silky smooth, buttery, and so creamy—they paired with the salmon like a match made in food heaven. We couldn’t get enough of that combo! For appetizers, we went with Spicy Shrimp 🌶️🍤 and Mussels 🦪—both absolute winners. The spicy shrimp were zesty and flavorful, with a gentle heat that woke up our taste buds without being overpowering. They were tossed in a tangy sauce that had us licking our fingers (no shame here!). The mussels, on the other hand, were plump and tender, steamed in a delicious broth that we sopped up with bread—so fresh and briny, like a taste of the ocean. Oh, and let’s not forget the famous Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuits! 🧀 They’re unlimited, warm, and incredibly addictive—soft on the inside, slightly crispy on the outside, and loaded with cheesy, garlicky goodness. We kept going back for more, especially when dipping them into the leftover sauce from the mussels. Pure comfort in a little biscuit! We washed it all down with refreshing drinks 🍹—crisp, cold, and the perfect complement to all that rich seafood. They hit the spot, especially after diving into all those flavorful dishes. By the end of the meal, we were stuffed but smiling—full of delicious seafood, happy memories, and even some leftovers to enjoy later. The service was wonderful too—our server was friendly, attentive, and made great recommendations, which just added to the experience. If you’re in Regina and craving fresh, flavorful seafood, Red Lobster is a must-visit. It’s a place where every dish feels like a celebration of the ocean, and the portions (and biscuits!) keep you coming back for more. We’re already planning our next visit—maybe to try their famous lobster rolls next time! 🦞✨ #food #Lobster #Regina #UniversityOfRegina #Canada #CanadaTravel #ReginaFood
