During Crabfest, Red Lobster is serving up a Wild-Caught Crab Legs Dinner with the choice of a three selections of crab legs – Alaska Bairdi Crab, North American Snow Crab and King Crab.
For those who can’t decide on or simply don’t want just one type to eat, an order of the Crab Lover’s Dream option will bring wild-caught Snow Crab Legs, Split King Crab Legs and the restaurant’s signature Crab Linguini Alfredo, all served up on one plate. And for shellfish lovers, Red Lobster’s new Wild-Caught Snow Crab & Seafood Bake combines snow crab legs with shrimp, sea scallops, mussels and tomatoes in a garlic and white wine broth.
In addition, wild-caught sockeye and coho salmon, sourced from the waters of Bristol Bay, Sandy Point and Prince William Sound in Alaska, have been added to complement the Crabfest menu. These types of salmon are available for a limited time to correspond with their respective seasons. They can be paired with Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes and Crab-Topped Salmon, or simply grilled.
For the first time, Red Lobster is pairing wood-grilled salmon with premium jumbo lump crab cakes and a savory crab topping in its new Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes & Crab-Topped Salmon offering.
