Best time of the year to be a waiter at Red Lobster is Lobsterfest. Big tickets, big waits in the lobby due to Lent and Easter. Not enough to get me out of retirement, but tempting to pick up a couple of shifts just to have a bit of fun. Only tempting though, no way I'm doing it (nor would they probably let me at this point).
If you want my opinion - the Lobster Lover's Dream is my favorite. If I want something light I'd go with the Harborside & skip the drawn butter. If you've had a true "bake" on the NE Atlantic coast, I'd avoid the Bar Harbor Lobster Bake. If you've only lived in the Midwest and never had fresh seafood on the coast you might be surprised to find you like it. And the Lobster Tacos sound like a good idea until you get to the last taco and it is cold, runny, and a bit funky. It's a good idea, but I don't think it will be on next year's menu.

The question was asked (I accidentally deleted the comment & don't know how to restore it - sorry!) as to what the cost of Lobsterfest items are. The best answer is it depends. Different markets have different price points. This is true for all menu items basically. So your best bet is to call the store you'd like to visit and ask them directly. A store in central Nebraska has a different price than Times Square does.
Any idea what the nutritional info is for the lobster/shrimp tacos? I asked our server and she said it was online. I checked online and it's not there. Thanks
