Red Lobster - Killeen

Our first review is here!
Red Lobster, a nationwide chain.

We were greeted and seated quickly by a very friendly hostess. Our server greeted us in a timely manner and got our drink orders while dutifully explaining the current specials. Charley ordered Walt's Favorite Shrimp and I ordered the Make your own Feast and chose Walt's Favorite Shrimp and the Wood-grilled Salmon. Charley opted for the Clam Chowder, while I chose the house garden salad.

First Bites:
The Chowder was quite tasty, although Charley thought it was a bit on the thin side for his tastes. My salad was fresh, tasty and actually had the perfect amount of dressing.

Main Courses:
Fried Shrimp was good on both plates....I've learned to accept good, unless I'm on the coast and then I expect perfection.
My Wood-grilled Salmon was a bit over cooked but had that yummy wood-grilled taste that I was looking for.

Service:
We found the service, after being seated, a bit on the slow side. Our server seemed to be a little overwhelmed, maybe he was new. Another server saw us sitting with empty glasses and got more for us, thankfully. If you know me....my tips are often based on how long I have to wait on my refill....LOL!  We thought our server rallied in the end until he brought our check, failed to leave us a pen and disappeared. We had to flag down another server and ask for a pen.

Not the best experience, nor the worst....at least for Killeen....

Until next time.....happy eating around the dinner table!
