    I did feel bad about going on Christmas day, but they were open anyway. We sat at the upstairs bar and the service was amazing! The food was very good as always. I really do not know way the front desk people all ways tell you to wait!? I just walked by them and went upstairs. Food was awesome.

    We were pleased to have our Red Lobster in Ames, Iowa open on Christmas Day as many dining venues were not. We made a reservation and were seated upon our arrival. Our waitress was friendly, attentive, and polite. Our waitress told us her family of eight was sitting at the table across from us. Thank you for being our family on Christmas Day!

    So delicious, plus felt like a family experience with all of the staff! We were visiting for my birthday, and upon entry I was greeted and wished happy birthday by two employees, and our waitress, and even while leaving after such a great meal and drinks (and birthday tiramisu), they remembered me out of all of the guests on that busy night and said to enjoy my birthday once again on our way out! Was very thoughtful, we will be returning for sure!

    Flatbread pizza was awesome! Service outstanding. We were there early so not busy at all. Bet it's a cool place to be when a smokin' little jazz band is playing!
