A few weeks back, we brought seafood fans the news that they’ve been waiting for: Red Lobster’s Endless Shrimp deal might be back. The all-you-can-eat shrimp offer was so popular when it was made permanent in 2023 that it was said to be a huge factor in Red Lobster’s bankruptcy – but amazingly, just a couple of years later, it looked as though the seafood chain was flirting with the idea of putting it back on the menu (albeit in a limited-time capacity). Finances be damned, it’s too delicious to pass up!

Now, we’re very pleased to report that the Endless Shrimp deal is officially back, people, and we have all the details of what you can order. We hope you’re hungry!
Shrimp for Days, Only at Red Lobster
Red Lobster’s Endless Shrimp returned to its restaurants yesterday, April 20, and as before, customers will be able to order the crustaceans in various different preparations – including one new one. They are:
Walt’s Favourite Shrimp
This one’s your classic, right here. A pile of gently fried, hand-breaded, butterflied shrimp, served with cocktail sauce.
Garlic Shrimp
Want something a bit more flavorful? Red Lobster’s Garlic Shrimp is just that, with each piece sautéed in a garlic-and-lemon butter sauce.
Island Coconut Shrimp
Hand-breaded jumbo shrimp coated with coconut, served with Red Lobster’s creamy, pineapple-y, piña colada sauce.
Shrimp Linguine Alfredo
Don’t forget that its Endless Shrimp isn’t just available in dipping form – it’s also available in pasta form. A classic shrimp linguine Alfredo here, served unlimited-ly (yes, I’m aware that’s not actually a word).
Marry Me Shrimp
Hopping on the viral trend for everything made Marry Me-style, this new option from Red Lobster tops its shrimp with a tomato cream sauce and further adorns it with a garlic-and-herb crumble. Deeeelicious.
How Long Will Endless Shrimp Be Available?
As I said above, Red Lobster’s Endless Shrimp deal is limited-time only. There’s no official word just yet on when it’s going to end, but we wouldn’t sit on our hands. Not when there’s unlimited seafood involved.
How Much Will It Cost?
Previously, the Endless Shrimp offer was priced at $20, but it looks as though it might be a bit more expensive this time around. Some restaurants have shared that they’d charge between $24.99 and $29.99. Hey, we get the price rise: They don’t want this deal to bankrupt them again, do they?
What Else Is Happening At Red Lobster?
The restaurant is marking the remount of Endless Shrimp by refreshing its drinks menu. It’s bringing 15 new cocktails, beers, and wines to the bar, and it has three new flagship cocktails ready to go:
- Coastal Caesar Flight, a take on the classic Canadian cocktail, which can be ordered shrimp-style with vodka, bacon-style with tequila, and smoked-style with gin.
- Indigo Current, a cocktail containing Empress 1908 Indigo Gin, lemon, and soda water, with a lemon twist to finish it off.
- High Tea with Henny, a spin on an afternoon tea with Hennessy VS Cognac, lemon, tea, and mint.
