red lobster crabfest menu review: red lobster seafood boil

Red Lobster’s annual Crabfest, running this year through September 14, is a beloved summer tradition for the chain. In addition to three festival-themed summer cocktails, the restaurant is offering a loaded lineup of shellfish mains and sides that honor the event’s namesake.

With two new seafood boils on the menu and a slew of other accompaniments, I visited the Springfield, PA location to taste everything while it was still available. Below, you’ll find my honest reviews, original photos and overall ranking, so you know exactly what to order when you go. Just be sure to save room for two baskets of Cheddar Bay biscuits, OK?

(Note: Pricing and availability may vary by location. Prices are rounded up to the nearest dollar.)
