Hat tip to
Weasel Zippers for this great story. I ate at Red Lobster on July 4th. I hadn't been there in a year and was pleasantly surprised by the improved service and fresh food.
COLUMBIA, Mo.
– A Columbia, Mo. Red Lobster server went above and beyond her duty
recently, picking up the tab for a widow celebrating her wedding
anniversary with her daughter.
For 31 years the woman and her husband spent their anniversary at Red
Lobster. The unidentified woman’s husband passed away in March, so her
daughter decided to keep the tradition alive, taking her mom out for an
anniversary meal.
The daughter’s brother, Reddit user Coppin-it-washin-it, said the
server asked his mom and sister if they were celebrating anything
special. His sister explained to the server her parents’ tradition, and
the rest of the meal went normally. Until it was time for the bill.
Instead of giving them the bill, the server handed them a note. Coppin-it-washin-it posted a photo of it on Reddit....

NewsChannel 5 confirmed the authenticity of the note with a spokesperson for Darden Restaurants.
“What Taylor, the server, and Chad, the manager on duty, did
demonstrates how our teams live Red Lobster’s core values of genuine
caring and hospitality each day,” said spokesperson Erica Ettori. “All
of us at Red Lobster are truly proud of the Columbia team and appreciate
their commitment to making every guest’s dining experience a special
one. We also extend our wishes to the family who dined with us and look
forward to serving them again next year!”
