If you've ever been lucky enough to eat any of their dishes, you know that the food is delicious and will leave you wanting to come back again and again to try all the dishes.

It is an excellent restaurant option for those in Orlando who are already bored of hamburgers and American food!

Especially if you're eating at the type of restaurants quick services inside of Orlando parks how Magic Kingdom and SeaWorld.

The main dish at Red Lobster is the wonderful lobsters (after all, the translation of the name of the restaurant is “Red Lobster”).

Be sure to stop by one of the several branches that exist in Orlando, we put your address further down in this post.

What is Red Lobster food like?

As we mentioned earlier, the strong point of the house is seafood and it is naturally what we recommend here.

Like any good chain restaurant, they have other options besides seafood, but if you're in the rain, you're going to get wet!

So far, everything we've eaten has been delicious.

A very important note.

There is a starter bun that is served as soon as you arrive at your tables.

We usually recommend not eating these starters as they fill you up for the main course.

But in this case, we will say the opposite!

EAT the buns, they are wonderful and you won't regret it!

They are called Cheddar Bay Biscuits and they are wonderful!

AHh, if you liked it, order another portion before you leave to eat it for breakfast the next day =)

Another starter we love is the “Langostino Lobster-Artichoke-and-Seafood Dip”!

It's a mixture of crayfish, Norwegian lobster and other seafood with spinach and Tortilla Chips on the side! It's delicious!!!

Apart from these starters, we recommend 2 courses:

Ultimate Feast

Tender Maine Lobster Tail, Wild Caught North American Snow Crab Legs, Our Handcrafted Garlic Shrimp Shrimp, and Walt's Favorite Shrimp.

Served with rice and choice of side.

Seaside Shrimp Trio

A generous sampling of Walt's favorite shrimp, Artisan Garlic Shrimp Shrimp and Creamy Shrimp Alfredo Linguini.

Served with 2 side dishes.

Another tip:

Red Lobster always has a ?promotion menu? of the season with equally delicious dishes and an even more friendly price.

For this, ask your waiter for the “special offers menu”. 

Cost per person at Red Lobster Orlando

It varies a lot, for example, the main dishes mentioned above cost around $25, however you can easily share them because the dishes are big.

If a couple share a starter (around $10) and share a lobster main course ($25), you will spend around $20-22 dollars per person with drink and tip.

There are other promotions depending on the time if it's lunch or which restaurant you go to.

If we were to give a general average value (considering all our trips and making an average) we would say $26 per person!

Is it worth eating at Red Lobster Orlando?

Well, we think it's really an interesting option but taste is something very particular.

We think it's a good option to eat seafood at a reasonable price, so we think it's a good cost benefit.

Don't expect amazing food like Enzo's Hideaway in Disney springs, but for the price we think it is an option for your trip.

History of the Restaurant and its Founder

Let's tell a little bit about the story of how this restaurant came to be and became this wonderful chain!

The founder of Red Lobster found his passion for the restaurant business at an early age.

At just 19 years old, Bill Darden opened his first restaurant, The Green Frog, in Waycross, Georgia, in 1938.

The business venture was the first of many as Darden acquired a handful of successful restaurant chains.

The first Red Lobster location opened in Lakeland, Florida in 1968.

Despite the success, Red Lobster wasn't enough for Darden. In 1982, he also founded the Olive garden, thus creating a never-ending oasis that quickly gained fans across the country.

Whether seafood or Italian, Darden obviously had a knack for selling food.
