I used to work at Red Lobster all the food is frozen except if you buy a LIVE lobster.Also that amazing sauce she was talking about is Brown Butter sauce( diced garlic,tomatoes,and herbs), you can ask for BB sauce on steaks or anything and it’s the best thing ever!!!Don’t eat the soups,careful with the salads,and definitely order the pizza but add extra crab/lobster if you’re feeling fancy.
The fresh fish isn't frozen. I don't know if they still have that but it would come in twice a week. 95% of all food in any restaurant is frozen anyway.
All you have to do is pretend to film and say your from thrillist or something and they make the food with double the lobster and itll probably all be free, because my lobster pizza has NEVER had that much on it and ive had it like 6 times lmao
Mykee Wattz looks nothing like the food in this video, portions are way smaller , shrimp is small, lobster tails are small but still big in price 🙄 oh it also looks like they just throw the food on our plates from across the kitchen 😂🤷🏽♀️
Yes people the key is to tell Red Lobster that you will be doing a video so that they can bring your food out looking like hers because you will never get food or a plate presentation like this at any Red Lobster in your lifetime!
“I’m excited for this one because you get a baked potato for yourself.” **literally 3 seconds later** “I don’t see the point in baked potatoes” ....huh?
Your lobster isn’t cooked live at the restaurant unless you order it from the Fresh Catch menu which is around $30-35. Any other lobster entree is coming from the freezer/fridge.
Its all fresh, it has to be shipped into other areas safely even grocery stores sell previously frozen fish for safety measures i worked for 2 major grocery stores saying fish was fresh but actually it was previously frozen or refrigerated!!! I am a current employee of red lobster and there fish is better then the grocery stores the 2 major chain ones i worked for!!!! Before working for red lobster!!!
I was in a abusive relationship that my finances were tight for over 20 years. So this restaurant was expensive. Now I'm out of it still financially impossible
As an ex Red Lobster employee I can tell you that all the the seafood is frozen. All of it. The only thing fresh is the full live lobster that is pulled from the live tank. EDIT: I'm not coming back to this video or comment lmao. Dont waste your time. Also dont get so salty, you're not on the menu 😂✌🏼
Dana Coohon I’ve eaten here twice. Never again. First time, I thought maybe it was a bad batch or a fluke. I assumed it was frozen but their crab tasted tinny and metallic. I was sick from the food last time.
I mean if you live anywhere in the US other than right on the coast, it has to be frozen. I’m sure it is ‘fresh frozen’ to preserve the seafood. It’s really not a big deal.
I came to say the same thing lol as an ex red lobster employee only your lobsters from the tank up front are cooked fresh to order. Everything else is absolutely frozen
I love this gal's videos. I actually get to see what menu items look like, instead of having to conjure up an image in my mind from a printed description. A bonus is getting ideas for meal planning when I cook, which is very often.
Julia, you make eating such a thing of pleasure! The Red Lobster dishes you were served were outstanding and so appetizing. BUTTER rules and you proved that. I wish I could go there right now and have the taste experience you did! Thank you for being so descriptive about the tastefulness of the dishes. I'm drooling!
I was just going to post the same comment and besides I remember Oahu getting a Red Lobster finally in like 2006 or something down in Waikiki but to say that I legit scratched my head hella hard...smh
I have had the stuffed mushrooms many times, and they have never looked that good. In fact, nothing I've ever had at Red Lobster has ever looked as nice as that food.
The Seafood Stuffed Mushrooms are just awful, awful! The only edibles are the Red Lobster menu for me are the cheese biscuits and the clam chowder. I was told by some one who should know is that the 'sea-breeze' smell that greets you at the door is actually an air freshner pumped into the ventilation system.
I have to say I work at RedLobster is Arizona and this video was just great! The way you appetized the food and explained it was great (: keep up the awesome videos
@Limitless Yes because everyone pretended to take it literally when normal people knew what was up. And you see I said "everyone." That's just hyperbole.
@@MsRaconteur Understandable though, she starts the video with "I was a competitive eater, my parents didn't think I could do this." she even made it sound like she was about to do that, a lot of people who are competitive eaters do try to eat everything at a restaurant, the title and video was misleading regardless :P
Back in action at Red Lobster! I'm so proud of you! xoxoxo I also told my grandma about our shoot (she LOVES this place) and she just goes, "You kids have the most fun job, don't you?!" and then made me promise to take her to Red Lobster the next time I visit. I'll def be showing her the fruits of your labor.
Also, you can request roasted tilapia in a bag with seasonal vegetables. It usually only shows up on the Fresh Fish of the Day menu, but it was my favorite, and I still make it at home for my friends and family.
I went to New York a few years ago and I still haven’t recovered from my meal at Reb Lobster… I need to go back to America as soon as possible so I can get these Chedar Bay Biscuits
I was waiting for the Lobster Bisque....its is the most delicious soup I e ever had. One time I ordered two bowls, with two margaritas, & the cheezy biscuits.....totally great meal!
I think this is the first time Julia hasn't finished one of these with a near case of alcohol poisoning! That coconut shrimp with the piña colada sauce comes as an entree too and it's my go to along with the snow crab. 😋
I have very fond memories of Red Lobster. Always going there for a celebration. But this past time i found the portions were small amd the prices were higher. The cheddar biscuits were delicious. Thaank you for sharing ypur videos.

Why can’t I eat the soups 😢

@@naomimendoza6361I'm guessing they put the leftover in it or it's just not his taste to eat soups
What's the brand of tea they use please?❤
Why can't I eat salads and soups? :(
My grandmother (Rip) would bring me to Red Lobster for crab legs every year on my birthday, so it (and crabies) feels like home to me too!
i wish my red lobster’s food looked like this 😩
All you have to do is pretend to film and say your from thrillist or something and they make the food with double the lobster and itll probably all be free, because my lobster pizza has NEVER had that much on it and ive had it like 6 times lmao

@@shelbeytaylor8145 LMAOOOO THE TRICKERY OF IT ALL I HAVEN'T BEEN IN TEN YEARS I ONLY REMEMBER THE BISCUITS BEING GOOD
Mykee Wattz yeah our biscuits aren’t even good 😂
Yea I work like 3 blocks from this Red Lobster and we're lucky if the portions we get is even half the size of the ones Julia got.
u should do olive garden if u didn't already
s👀n!
YAAAAASSSS
Watch The Try Guys do it
Dee Dee
She hasn’t? That’s a good idea!
Alyssa Brooke the try guys and another strand on buzzfeed did something similar
The Cheddar Bay Biscuits is the main reason I go to Red Lobster.
They were sued because there is no cheddar in them.all soy. They are now called red lobster signature biscuits
I've been waiting for another one of these
same :)
U very beautiful
She had to recover from quadruple bypass surgery first lol!
Same
Me too
Yes people the key is to tell Red Lobster that you will be doing a video so that they can bring your food out looking like hers because you will never get food or a plate presentation like this at any Red Lobster in your lifetime!
Um, this is the Red Lobster in TIMES SQUARE. I have been several times and I assure you this is actually what it looks like in the video.
@@signalfire15 I figured their time square location would be top notch, unlike the one that's down the street from me.
She was First Class, and not back with the savages in Coach. 😂
omg she’s back thank god i love her!!!!
tess. we have to stop meeting like this.
Same
Tess Koman we love you too Tess! You’re both my favs
I love watching you Tess! Please go back to Disney 💕
Glad she's finally describing the taste and details of the food!
“You gotta work for it sometimes” girl the lobster tail is literally cut open for you
Sam A it was still stuck to the tail!
LMAOOOOOOOOOO OMG
Sam A 😂😂😂you know how these people be
🥴🤣🤣🤣🤣
She was taking about the pasta......Guuuuuurl
“I’m excited for this one because you get a baked potato for yourself.”
**literally 3 seconds later**
“I don’t see the point in baked potatoes”
....huh?
If she really didn't want it, she could've asked to change the side.
same😭
I don’t think I can trust her opinion if she likes broccoli more than a baked potato
Kendra Neumann I don't think Julie likes veggies very much...
@@kendraneumann5907 I agreed until you insulted broccoli by implying you can't like it more than potatoes. :-P
I’d like an episode of Julia talking about and showing/tasting different cuisine from Hawaii since she grew up there! 😀
Omg Jules!! CAN WE GO TO HAWAII?!!! @juliasmith
Your lobster isn’t cooked live at the restaurant unless you order it from the Fresh Catch menu which is around $30-35. Any other lobster entree is coming from the freezer/fridge.

Pixies Ostrich Duster a whole lobster, yes lol

I am a current employee of red lobster and there fish is better then the grocery stores the 2 major chain ones i worked for!!!! Before working for red lobster!!!
Had no idea!
Really, Wow!
Ok but sis what foundation/primer/powder/setting spray do you use?! How does the makeup stay intact after eating all that food
lololol do I need to do a get ready with me before one of these 😂
Exactly what I was thinking!
Are you eating right? Just put the food right in your mouth dont need to rub it all over your face or anything
Ha, good one L P.
Who cares about make-up
Love this series! Very fun to watch as a non-American, and the host has an amazing personality!
I’ve never been to Red Lobster so I’m living through you.
Me too
Why haven't you???
I was in a abusive relationship that my finances were tight for over 20 years. So this restaurant was expensive. Now I'm out of it still financially impossible
Probably best you haven’t been there. The kitchens at Red Lobster are an anomaly. Most everything is cooked on conveyor belts or microwaved. :/
Girl it’s soooooooo good
This is my new favorite RUclips series can’t wait for more episodes!! When are we getting new episodes?
KEEP THESE VIDEOS UP I LOVE THEM!!!!!! we want more restaurants to see you try girl
Well….fast forward to 2023. This series has come to an end
How is red lobster in Calgary?
As an ex Red Lobster employee I can tell you that all the the seafood is frozen. All of it. The only thing fresh is the full live lobster that is pulled from the live tank.

MrsLovely 30 I also agree with that, but knowing chain restaurants, the quality is
Probably shit tier :/
I came to say the same thing lol as an ex red lobster employee only your lobsters from the tank up front are cooked fresh to order. Everything else is absolutely frozen
Can you please do P.F. Chang's next?
Tom Servo PF Chang’s is delicious!! The chicken lo mein, sweet and sour chicken, crab ragoons and the Great Wall of chocolate are delicious!!
Also the Chilean bass
She has one on here already from pf chang :) (click the link below!)

Nothing better than gourmet Californian-Chinese food.
This is my absolute favorite restaurant, ever!!! I'm so glad you did this video

some of those plates look so frickin good how does she manage to have a bite then just let it go lmfao
im betting it's so she doesn't explode, that food is insanely filling. And i bet the camera crew probably had some right after
Living in Hawaii, and getting crab from a chain??? There are so many local restaurants with fresh crab
King crab and i think snow crab is only in Alaska sooo the location doesnt really matter if its not Alaska
I was just going to post the same comment and besides I remember Oahu getting a Red Lobster finally in like 2006 or something down in Waikiki but to say that I legit scratched my head hella hard...smh
Ive lived on Big island for 9 years. We have Costco lol
Alexis S some of us don’t live near an ocean though
@@graciebunnell8530 Yes true that. Hope you get some seafood soon!
The seaside shrimp trio from red lobster is a must!
Me after the video: I should go to Red Lobster some time!
My bank account: Woo! That is a knee-slapper right there!
I thought Red Lobster was the affordable fish house? No? That was so 1990's...
@@sweetsongstress7398 1990s*
I always get the crab alfredo fettuccini with extra crab, and biscuits. Then I have to eat nothing but salad for the rest of my life .
I couldn't eat more than a few bites of that when I got it!
And when I get the crab fettuccine it only has like one fourth of the amount they put on hers 😭
I was so bummed she didn't get the crab alfredo!! It's my favorite!
Crab alfredo used to always be my regular there too.
Oh to be one of the people who gets to have all the leftovers LOL
I have had the stuffed mushrooms many times, and they have never looked that good. In fact, nothing I've ever had at Red Lobster has ever looked as nice as that food.
The Seafood Stuffed Mushrooms are just awful, awful! The only edibles are the Red Lobster menu for me are the cheese biscuits and the clam chowder.

Crab over lobster WHO'S WITH ME?
me!
Tanuj Oundhakar me I love both when I go I get three lobsters and two crabs
Yes times a thousand
Love both but you know what I think I do love CRAB way more. The meat is sweeter and delightful!
Uhhh... can I have both? I kinda want them both. Oh, and a steak. Sorry. I'm an indecisive Libra.
I have to say I work at RedLobster is Arizona and this video was just great! The way you appetized the food and explained it was great (: keep up the awesome videos
lmao, they changed it from eating to trying after the cheesecake episode :P
I noticed that also.
@Limitless Yes because everyone pretended to take it literally when normal people knew what was up. And you see I said "everyone." That's just hyperbole.
Tosh T There were a lot of non-normal people. Like obviously she’s not gonna finish everything.
Because fat asses kept complaining about her not eating everything 🙄
@@MsRaconteur Understandable though, she starts the video with "I was a competitive eater, my parents didn't think I could do this." she even made it sound like she was about to do that, a lot of people who are competitive eaters do try to eat everything at a restaurant, the title and video was misleading regardless :P
Girl.. I absolutely love baked potatoes especially with a lot of sour cream & cheese ugh I couldn’t pass on it for some broccoli😭
Lobster pizza has always been my fave. Always pick one up carry out when I’m sick
The shrimp trio is legit the best red lobster deal. You get the bang for your buck in terms of quantity, diversity and portion!
Have wanted this ever since watching Jimmy Fallon and nicki Minaj go to red lobster 😄
I just rewatched that the other day. "Give me my pen!"
Me toooo!
I just ordered $140 worth of Red Lobster for my birthday lmao. Had to watch this video before picking it up 😋🦞
You forgot shrimp and lobster roll and lobster bisque which are amazing 😍
Seriously how much can this girl eat she ate more in a episode than I do in a year.
Yay! My wish came true! Thank you!! Julia is AWESOME!!
ahh! thank you:)
Lol I love that Keith from the try guys hated all the food but they pull out the stops for Julia

hi chelsea!!!!
I agree! Julia needs to go to the Metro Diner in Jacksonville, Florida.
I love watching her eat. AND I DONT KNOW WHY.
This girl has a great personality and is very entertaining to watch. Great food review! I subscribed! ❤
@@ToddMcKean31 Indeed! 👍🏼
Doesn’t “Cheddar Bay” sound like some bougie subdivision out East?
Nicolle Van Dyke totally
I swear the way ppl say the word "boujee/bougie/bourgie" these days kills me 😂
😂
I love Red Lobster. I'm a seafood perosn, so trust me, I know of plenty of better quality seafood, but Red Lobser is still good!!
Yay, you're back!!! I heard the biscuits are ICONIC. I need to try it!
They ARE. I basically black out when eating them.
Phew child that avatar
This girl literally loves every dish every single time ...
Did I just jealously watch someone eat yes yes I did
I will say these chain places come out with some really creative stuff
The Maple glazed chicken is amazing! It’s underrated and a lot of people don’t try it 😭😭
because who really gonna order a chicken dish at a red lobster whew
Also, you can request roasted tilapia in a bag with seasonal vegetables. It usually only shows up on the Fresh Fish of the Day menu, but it was my favorite, and I still make it at home for my friends and family.
Or halibut, if tilapia scares you.
This series is so much more pleasing to watch than the Keith eats one
it’s so weird as an employee of red lobster to watch someone eat the food I see every day LOL
I went to New York a few years ago and I still haven’t recovered from my meal at Reb Lobster…
I need to go back to America as soon as possible so I can get these Chedar Bay Biscuits
Watching this made me hungry and made me think of the poor, unfortunate people who will never experience Red Lobster.
@3:42 when did people start saying 'PTSD moment'?! It's more than a little insensitive
exactly. it sounds so cute and innocent but no one would ever say "post-traumatic stress disorder moment"
honestly
I was waiting for the Lobster Bisque....its is the most delicious soup I e ever had. One time I ordered two bowls, with two margaritas, & the cheezy biscuits.....totally great meal!
I'm a new viewer and I really love your videos. You make all the food you eat sound delicious, and and I really love your personality
They definitely brought in a chef. My Red Lobster doesn't look like that. I got the dip... definitely didn't have a lot meat
Making me want red lobster, the biscuits are the best part! My favorite coconut shrimp❤️
I was waiting for the fried calamari. That one is very good as well. I always get that appetizer when I make a trip to Red Lobster.
Yuck
I think this is the first time Julia hasn't finished one of these with a near case of alcohol poisoning!
That coconut shrimp with the piña colada sauce comes as an entree too and it's my go to along with the snow crab. 😋
Used to come with a slice of pineapple.
Julia is like a breath of fresh wind, love her❤️hardcore fanboying over her bunny personality
My plates never look like this when I go lol. Do a video when they don’t know your coming. Lol. Nice video
Mine look like these might be a tiny bit worse but otherwise i don’t see much wrong
So happy Julia is back!
“It doesn’t matter how you open it....just as long as you get the meat out...” that’s what she said 😂😂😂😂 lol
I haven’t been to Red Lobster in many, many years. After this video, I AM GOING!
The mixed grill is my personal favorite! I love it and hope they never get rid of it!
I have very fond memories of Red Lobster. Always going there for a celebration.
But this past time i found the portions were small amd the prices were higher. The cheddar biscuits were delicious. Thaank you for sharing ypur videos.
Im curious to know how much the total bill is for each restaurant they visit is.
RED LOBSTER BREAD IS SO GOOD!!!!!!!
Literally the best part of red lobster to me. Lobster taste like a more salty and chewier crab. Overrated
BUT THE LOBSTER IS BETTER THAN THE CRAB!
The lobster mac and cheese though! That's the best thing on the menu!
Red Lobster is the lowest form of a seafood restaurant but you and your charm actually make it look great. I hope they send you a stipend as thanks.
I’d love to see the behind the scenes of these 😂😂
😂😭 I love how she gave us fun facts about biscuits and about where Red Lobster started !
I eat the lobster pizza as meal. It’s so good.
They got rid of it in Canada for some reason. :(
Goodness!!! I'm soooooo hungry now!!! Why did I watch this awesome video lol 😹😹😹
Love her! Too funny this was posted today because I had made the red lobster cheddar bay biscuits last night😍
My favorite series EVER please make more
I'm sorry but the "lobster bits" in the dip definitely looked like crawfish tails. 😂😂
THEY WERE. SHE DIDN'T KNOW THAT CLEARLY SHE HAS BEEN DRINKING OR SHE REALLY DIDN'T DO HER HOMEWORK 🤣💯
Langistinos- small shrimp looking characters closely related to the hermit crab family.
It's langastino
The brussel sprouts are 💣!! If you go back you gotta get some of those.
this is the great value version of Keith Eats The Menu.
Thank you! Someone said it
Who
Melanie yeah like how does she not look a hot mess(I’m only halfway through the video now)
Except she has better eating habits than our Keith!
The unauthentic version
Went there yesterday and I enjoyed it so much
you should do one at bjs brewhouse and try all of the deserts
I care about your fun facts! I love it 😍!
My food is never this good when I go. They fixed it all up for her and the video.
Yes it usually looks like left overs
So true
The Cheddar Bay Biscuits will forever be my favorite thing from Red Lobster.
*anything that has vegetables included* I’ve actually never had this at red lobster before
They have some of the best pasta meals! So good!
I wish our local red lobster made the food that good..
You need to make these videos more frequently because they are amazing!!!
NOW DO OUTBACK STEAKHOUSE!
all of the food looks so good i want it now!
Did I miss the Cajun Chicken Pasta? That's the only thing I order when I go to Red Lobster.
Cajun chicken pasta is real good
Odd to order cajun pasta from red lobster lol
I literally thought that and your comment came up lol
so you go to a seafood restaurant and order chicken??
I always order this when I go it's the best damn pasta I've ever had in any restaurant.
I love when you do these videos! I already have a craving to go here LOL
