🍔 Today's Menu 🍔

Shrimp lovers will notice a key item missing from Red Lobster's new menu, Anthony Robledo reports.

In an interview with TODAY, CEO Damola Adamolekun announced that the seafood chain's revamped menu will include nine new items, from a lobster bisque to bacon-wrapped sea scallops. However, he confirmed that the $20 endless shrimp deal is over.
