Red Lobster Oakdale - Saint Paul

Traun was our waiter. Excellent service, very pleasant and a real hustler. Everything was served warm and met our expectations

Seated immediately had a reservation. Our server was knowledgeable and was attentive to our needs

We arrived at our reservation and was told minutes wait time. After minutes and watching people who'd arrived after us be seated i approached the staff. A manager looked me in the eyes and said the next table available he'd seat us. Another people later I approached another staff member. We were finally seated once another table was cleared. Am hour after our arrival and people who'd walked in the door without pre booking were seated before us. Totally unacceptable service

Using the Internet Red Lobster Wish List to save a space was very easy and it worked beautifully. Upon arrival at the appointed. time, the four of us were seated immediately.Waitress was perfect and alert to our requests. Very nice time was had by the four of us

Food was excellent, a little pricey. But a nice choice for Christmas Eve. It could have used a more festive decor though
