Red Lobster's seafood (and food in general I guess) is terrible. I wouldn't publicly admit to going there, but I occasionally do (for the cheddar chive biscuit things and the popcorn shrimp, which I enjoyed immensely as a child when Red Lobster was considered, in my home town, to be very fancy indeed; right up there with Ponderosa, lol).


Growing up in the 80s/90s, Red Lobster was definitely considered fancy, a special occasion place, in my part of rural-ish VA

After you are done there you can check out the TJ Maxx nearby which is actually the best one in the tri state area (I’m actually not joking).

I don't think I've been to one since the early/mid 90s. It wasn't bad back then. Not great, but just like you would expect from a chain. GUess it's gone downhill.

I’m so glad I clicked on this thread despite hating Red Lobster but this info is gold.
