    Red Lobster Tonight!! Help!! ... I'd love to know whats GOOD! Thanks so much!!!

    Those cheesy garlic biscuits. Yes sir! Got to have at least 4 of those things. O wait, you mean healthy? *kicks can*

    Have some fresh fish and a salad with some light dressing. Avoid the fried or battered selections and don't touch the biscuits. They're laced with crack cocaine. They may have calories too but there's something else addicting in there that makes them AWESOME!!!

    Whenever I go I tell the server to not even bother bringing any of the biscuits to the table. I don't want them in front of me and I don't want them in my presence.

    unsweetened ice tea
    garden salad, fat free dressing on the side
    peel and eat shrimp with steamed broccolli and rice
    dessert: sip on a shot of amaretto

    I used to work there, I could tell you a gross story about the biscuits it if helps, LOL. Really, stay away fromthe buscuits.
    I didnt see the peel and eat shrimp on the menu, does it have a special name? that sounds good!

    Grilled Salmon and Double Steamed Broccoli....it's around 450 calories, low sodium and a ton of protein.

    Aside from the biscuits, I've always found Red Lobster food to actually have negative calories...

    This
    Red lobster is one of THE easiest places to keep it low-cal. You'll still go over on sodium unfortunately but everything else you'll be GREAT on.

    Order off the fresh fish menu or get the lobster with a vegetable side (steamed broccoli is one of my choices). Order the shrimp & scallops from the wood fire grill menu if you like. Pretty much keep away from their pastas or anything breaded/fried and you're golden.

    Oh and DO NOT EAT ANY OF THE COMPLEMENTARY MUFFINS. Those things are PURE EVIL as far as calorie content goes.

    Spend the money and get a LOBSTER.

    A steamed 1 1/4lb lobster is a ridiculously low 230 calories.

    Lobster and Shrimp isn't that fatening but the stuff you dip it in is usually honey butter or just plain butter and these foods are high in cholesterol. Have a good time, then go home and exercise like crazy.:flowerforyou:

    Adding to my post from page 1......Just back from having lunch at Red Lobster. I did get the Quick Lunch shrimp skewers (they are 4 oz total), got a side salad (no croutons) added petite shrimp, and fork dipped into their dressing. Got the baked potato (no butter/no sour cream) and asked for plain broccoli. I brought my butter spray and some seasoning and was totally delicious (took home half potato and one full skewer of shrimp & a cheddar bay biscuit). Made my one biscuit last the entire meal, & drank a ton of water.

    Spoke to the manager and I was given a 10 page xeroxed copy of Red Lobsters nutrition stats, the entire menu including drinks.

    They were totally accommodating, even asked if I was sure I wanted the biscuits, lol. And the waitress said, I'm not even going to ask you if you want dessert. Now armed with their entire menu's nutritional sheets I can't wait to go back, lol

    Of course I was dying for their 4 course feast......

    Eager to read how your dinner ended up :)

    Don't eat the biscuits. They're bad news!

    I went there a few months ago. I had fresh fish, veggies and I got a cup of chowder. It was very good and I stayed within my calories.
