Default Red Lobster Friday Night?

After it being open for a couple of weeks, the Missus and me decided to try it out at about 4:45 PM on Friday night. The parking lot was completely full, cars were parked blocking all but one lane of the entry lanes and there were about fifty cars parked on the sides of the road outside the RL parking lot. There was a huge number of people milling around outside the restaurant.

What was going on? Was this just the "seasonal" crowd of people for a new restaurant? Wow! Looks like we'll wait until after the "season" to try it out.

We bopped on down to Bonefish Grill and even though it was also very crowded and issuing the electronic beepers with an announced 30-45 minute wait, we were in, waited for our table, enjoyed a great dinner, and getting in our car to head home by 6:15 PM. The wait wasn't as long as announced and as usual the service was superb.
