Red Lobster - La Mesa

Come for the food.Wheelchair accessibility: Easy flat access

Stay far away from this red lobster. Ordered 3 simple items from them online and they delivered barely 2 of them. They marked all 3 off on their receipt they gave me, yet I only got 2, very sad, very cold, very disgusting items. Do NOT eat here, whether it be delivery, take out, or dine in.Edit: Seems they 're temporarily closed . Not surprising.

This was my birthday celebration with a long-term friend! I wanted today to be special, and my favorite place did not disappoint me.We each started with a glass of red wine sangria.They had a photographer going around taking a complimentary photo with options to purchase 2 framed ones for $15 each.We ordered our food, which was perfect as usual. We each took half home because the platter was too much for 1 meal.They even gave us a complimentary birthday ice cream sundae for dessert (with 2 spoons)!I highly recommend Red Lobster when dining alone, with a guest, or bringing a group for a business or partying occasion. Bon Appétit ?

I'm sure it was partially because it was the Father's Day rush, but had a terrible experience. Regardless of having reservations, we had to wait over 45 minutes, and waited an additional hour before any food showing up. Just felt like an evening of endless waiting. Felt bad for my two kids as they were starving. We chose this place because it's just down the street, but wont be coming back. Our server himself was really nice and we could tell he was doing his best, but it's obvious management has issues.

Not what it used to be but priced at a premium. That summarizes the experience. The bread used to be the top attraction, and now it's salty, over seasoned, and you have to chase servers to get it. They had a 10-15 minute wait, and it was pretty empty inside. The bacon Mac Cheese was absolutely terrible, and it was $5+ when I substituted my fries (which I wasn't told a it'd be that much or that bad). My kid's fish was stiff and chewy, definitely not ideal for a toddler. Honestly, I don't see myself going back.
