It was absolutely amazing! Our server, Melissa, was absolutely the best. She was knowledgeable, and all of her suggestions were delicious. She treated us so amazing and the thoughtful attention to us to celebrate my anniversary was so great. I genuinely cannot wait until we come back and visit again. I truly hope Melissa gets a raise or is promoted, whatever her heart desires, she made this outing so great for us. The food was amazing, the restaurant is phenomenal. Truly truly truly, my favorite restaurant in Virginia, cannot wait to Come back. P.S, we had food for takeout planned for our kids but we ate it for ourselves that same night. Truly delicious.

Hosts did not greet me. It took over 15 min to get a server to greet us and take our drink order. The deal for the food was decent. Service got better throughout the night.

The food was good, and I have no complaints. It is about what you expect from Red Lobster. We had the Crabfest special, which is overpriced for what you get for $38. I got one cluster, and they were out of crispy potatoes. What made the experience most pleasant was our waiter, Laura. Even if the food were terrible, which it wasn’t, I would have given my dining experience 5 stars, just for how she cared for us and her other tables. Her service was superb, and it made for an enjoyable dinner.
