We were very happy with our choice to eat dinner here. The food was excellent, and Kat was very helpful, making sure my children got food appropriate for them. I ordered salmon and it was amazing. My wife ordered shrimp skewers, and was similarly happy.Overall, the establishment was clean, the staff were pleasant and helpful, and the food was great. If we didn’t live so far away, we would come here again.

Finally decided to call in and try it. The overall appearance of the restaurant was inviting. The staff were well presented, professional and knowledgeable of the menu. Whilst the lobster was slightly over cooked the meal was delicious, promptly served and well presentedEnjoyed my visit, thanks ??

It wasn't busy when we first got there, it took awhile before our waiter or anyone greeted us. Finally the waiter appeared took our drink and appetizers order,calamari came it was under cooked no mussels no bread for 25 minutes. Mussels finally came they were good dinner came 1 lobster under cooked 1 lobster over cooked, waiter apologize several times did I say anything no just wanted to get out of there.

Not the best seafood I've ever had, but the best you can get in Kearney. Always consistent and the service is good. Salads are not full of weeds (one of the last places in town thank goodness) and the sauces and preparation choices are always delicious.

Our waitress was a sweetheart but the manager should be embarrassed. My crab legs were rotten and they took $10 off a $30 entree. It’d be nice to speak with a manager instead of sending a middle man. Typically enjoy. But probably won’t be back.

Great place! Only downside was no bar but that’s not a big deal. To-go order 30 minutes before close , not gonna lie , I expected it not to be so great because of the late order & the amount ordered (a lot) but OHH how I was wrong. Food was exceptional everything cook to perfection. No exaggeration, I’m a chef & I KNOW GOOD FOOD WHEN COOKED RIGHT & WITH LOVE. Thx red lobster definitely outdid my expectations.

Very quick and good service. Food was great as always.

Great food and atmosphere. Every server I've ever had here has been so wonderful and nice, I truly wish other customers treated them with more respect, because they deserve it!

Since they closed the store in Lincoln, we decided on Kearney. Told at the desk it would be a 15-20 minute wait so gave name and cell number to be texted. 45 minutes later we were told we were next when we asked about the delay. From the waiting area, we counted 12 tables vacant. Still, several groups were in the lobby area. Maybe they are short on servers?It is understandable when someone who made a reservation is seated ahead of us. When several people who arrived after us were seated ahead of us without reservation, I questioned why the delay. It has been an hour now. Staff said they called us twice. No text message was received. Our name was never called out. We were sitting almost behind the desk, the entire time. At least we will be "next" again. Two more groups were called, verbally.After we questioned the delay (again) the manager seated us at one of the previously observed vacant tables.18 minutes later, our obviously fairly new server finally asked us about beverages and appitizers. He questioned about the recipe for Baileys & coffee. I said I'd like a shot of Baileys in the bottom of a cup then fill the rest with coffee.So the drink arrives. Cup FULL of coffee and there was Baileys in a shot glass. Server came with appitizers then said the food would be right out. Then 20 MORE minutes go by before the entrees arrive.There is not a shred of toilet paper in either of the bathroom stalls.Food was great! Server did well as a novice.My challenge for the one star review is for the front area promising but not delivering. Two hostesses were more interested in gossiping about co-workers than paying attention to guests. Management did not acknowledge or apologize for the extensive delay even when we complained to her. I won't be coming back to this store.When we arrived it was 6pm. When we finished and paid the bill it was 9:30 . I still have a two hour drive home.

Everything is worth the cost of food is always cooked exactly how it should be and it's hot on delivery great job to this restaurant
