    Went here for my 17th birthday, service is amazing and is a beautiful place. Steak was delicious, sides are a huge serving so i recommend deciding on a table shared side. My party of 3 could’ve easily shared one of any side. appetizer lobster voodoo was extremely different than your usual lobster, large serving. Best strawberry lemonade ever let me tell you! My chocolate cake came with a lit candle and was wished a happy birthday many times throughout the restaurant. Crème brûlée was the best me and my mom have ever had! overall, great place for a special occasion but probably just for an occasion.

    Great food, wine, and staff! The staff is knowledgeable and food absolutely delicious! I would recommend for any date night, but definitely a place to go when you have a special occasion (and make sure to let them know when you make your reservation).

    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!

    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!
