Red Lobster — Restaurant in Tucson

Consistently Good Service and Food We visited on a Friday evening at about 4:30 pm. This is in the Spectrum Marketplace in South Tucson. We enjoy going to Red Lobster and have visited many around the country. Fridays are always busy there and arriving before 5:00 usually ensures immediate seating. Plan to wait as you get closer to 6:00. Red Lobster has not escaped the staff shortage problem and thankfully, chooses to not fill their restaurants with diners when they are short of servers. This keeps the server:diner ratio in line with being able to provide consistently good attentive service. I applaud them for doing so. We were seated immediately in the consistently familiar and comfortable dining area. Beverages include fountain sodas, teas and full bar service. We kicked-off with the Hand-Breaded Calamari Starter. These came out quickly and were piping hot. A very large portion of lightly battered perfectly fried rings thicker than usual so they were more tasty, soft and tender with no rubber tire chewiness. Served with jalapeno ranch and marinara dipping sauces. Plenty here for 3-4 to share. For our meals, my wife opted for the Sesame-Soy Salmon Bowl and I chose the Shrimp and Lobster Tacos. The generous portion of soy-ginger glazed salmon was very flavorful. The brussels sprouts were halved and heavily caramelized, but not burned, and we think topped with a drizzle of balsamic vinegar. The sprouts and salmon were sprinkled with crunchy crispy fried onions. The spring mix salad was fresh with a light vinaigrette. Edamame and orzo rice were included, but were not anything special. My wife really enjoyed this bowl meal. My tacos were full size tacos on grilled corn tortillas with good amounts of lobster and shrimp. The seafood was accompanied with jalapeno slaw, pico de gallo, a tasty lime crema and fresh cilantro. I found that the breading and frying overpowered the flavor of the shrimp and lobster and when topped with all the other ingredients, I got a real good south of the border flavor in my mouth just missing the seafood flavors. I brought two tacos home for next days lunch. If we had not filled up as much on the calamari, we probably would not have brought home leftovers. The portions are always large, the service was excellent and the setting is comfortable. We will visit again, but I'll pass...

I recently had one of the best dining experiences at Red Lobster, and it was all thanks to both the incredible food and our amazing server, Lorena. From the moment we sat down, she made us feel welcome, comfortable, and genuinely taken care of.

Lorena went above and beyond to guide us through the menu, helping us put together the most delicious options. She gave thoughtful recommendations that turned out to be perfect, and you could tell she truly cared about making sure our meal was everything we wanted and more. Her warm personality, attentiveness, and knowledge of the menu made the whole experience feel personal and special.

And the food? Absolutely amazing. Everything came out fresh, perfectly cooked, and full of flavor — from the appetizers to the entrées. Paired with Lorena’s outstanding service, it honestly made the night unforgettable.

If you’re going to Red Lobster, I highly recommend asking for Lorena. She made our visit more than just dinner; it felt like a true experience. Red Lobster is lucky to have her, and I’ll definitely be...

We have been to red lobster for years now, it's actually the time my husband and i love to spend together alone,and we always have a wonderful time there. But today was very upsetting, waited for our lunch for almost an hour and when we asked the waitress to cancel our lunch she got upset. Called the manager then she Told us they only had one cook which is OK. But it was the waitresses attitude that was bothersome. Not to mention the fact that she told the kitchen staff that they have to cancel all the food we had ordered. Which made us feel like we were pigging out. But if the food wasn't made yet how can you cancel it.then the waitress came back and practically through our card on the table. It's sad how someone's attitude ruins it for everyone else. The waitress and the manager could have been a little bit more curtious. As business owners our customers satisfaction is always the number 1 priority for our business it'keeps them coming back. We've had our business for 20+ years and we've always been good tippers because we appreciate...
