The Red Lobster Gift Card is an easy way to treat someone to a full seafood dinner. Red Lobster is one of the best-known seafood restaurants, so the card covers everything from the famous Cheddar Bay Biscuits to shrimp, lobster, and daily catches.
Because it works at participating Red Lobster restaurants, it suits a wide range of occasions, from a casual family dinner to a celebration. It handles the weekday takeout order and the special-occasion feast with equal ease.
How to redeem your Red Lobster gift card
Redeeming is simple. Dine in or order takeout at a participating Red Lobster, then present the gift card number and PIN when you pay. You can spend the balance in one visit or across several, and if the check comes to more than the card, you just cover the difference with another payment method.
How to check your Red Lobster gift card balance
You can check your Red Lobster gift card balance with your server at the restaurant, or through the Red Lobster gift card balance page or customer service with your card number and PIN.
Where you can use it
The card is used in person at participating Red Lobster restaurants for dine-in and takeout. Where a location supports online ordering for pickup or delivery, the card may also work there, though this varies. Participation can differ by location, so it is worth confirming a specific restaurant honors the card before you plan around it.
What you can buy with it
Red Lobster is a full seafood restaurant, so a gift card can go toward:
- Lobster, crab, and shrimp entrees
- Fresh daily catches and grilled seafood
- The signature Cheddar Bay Biscuits
- Combination platters and family meals
- Non-seafood options like steak, chicken, and pasta
- Appetizers, sides, desserts, and drinks
Red Lobster vs other restaurant gift cards
All serve seafood in a sit-down setting, but they suit different tastes and locations.
| Gift card | Best for | Reach |
|---|---|---|
| Red Lobster | Well-known casual seafood dining nationwide | Participating Red Lobster restaurants |
| Bonefish Grill | Wood-grilled seafood in a polished-casual setting | Bonefish Grill locations |
| Joe's Crab Shack | Casual, festive crab and shellfish boils | Joe's Crab Shack locations |
| Bahama Breeze | Island-inspired seafood and cocktails | Bahama Breeze locations |
Choose Red Lobster when you want a widely recognized seafood restaurant with something for the whole table; choose another seafood chain when the recipient prefers a different style or is closer to one of those locations.
