Sailor's or Mariner's: which is worth it?
The Mariner's costs $15.00 more. For that it adds a Maine lobster tail and snow crab legs, but has a dozen shrimp instead of two dozen and no sausage. For scale, adding a Maine lobster tail to any meal costs $17.99 on its own, and half a pound of snow crab legs $13.49. Red Lobster doesn't say how much crab is in the Mariner's.
Calories run the other way: Red Lobster lists the Sailor's at 2,600 to 3,040 calories and the Mariner's at 1,880 to 2,360 calories. Each is a range, and each flavor carries its own calories (table below).
The family meals serve 4 to 5 and are To Go or delivery only. Split 4 or 5 ways, the Sailor's family boil works out to $14.00 to $17.50 a person and the Mariner's to $20.00 to $25.00, before tax and tip.

Red Lobster first served seafood boils during Crabfest, from June 23 to September 14, 2025, at $30.99 each with three flavors: roasted garlic butter, Cajun butter and Old Bay (Fox 26 Houston). In November 2025 the boils joined the regular menu, with Lemon Pepper, Old Bay & Butter and RL Signature flavors added (Allrecipes).
Mike's Hot Honey and the Scorchin' spice level are the newest additions, marked new on Red Lobster's menu. For other dishes that came and went, see menu changes.
