In Short – Established in 1982, this chain gained a following for its laid-back atmosphere and generous portions. Patrons settle into comfortable booths and tables in dining rooms with plants, artwork and décor reminiscient of the villas in the Tuscan countryside. Starters include scampi, sausage or pepperoni pizza, and several soup choices, as well as a signature seafood dip (crab, shrimp, cheese and marinara). Entrees include classics like lasagna, fettuccine Alfredo and chicken parmigiana. There are also "Garden Fare" options, which promise 30 percent fewer calories.

Editor's Tips

What to Drink:
What's spaghetti and meatballs without a glass of wine? You'll find vintages here from Italy, Australia, California and Washington.

Best Soup and Salad

by jvuylsteke at Citysearch

While Olive Garden isn't the most authentic Italian restaurant my friends and I always like to go for their soup and salad lunch special. It?s incredibly inexpensive and they will bring you bowl after bowl until you can't stand the sight of soup anymore. Their buttery breadsticks are a personal favorite of mine as well.

  • Pros: Even on busy nights the wait is minimal
  • Cons: The soup is only neverending while you're at the restaurant. They will not give you more to go.

Love the Olive Garden!

by kee22 at Citysearch

This is one of my favorite Olive Garden locations. The food is always good..the sevice is pretty good. I know it's a big chain restaurant and not the best italian food ever, but I still love it. I especially love their salad dressing and their breadsticks are the best. The tour of italy is good too!!

  • Pros: Good food, salad and breadsticks are awesome
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Excellent service and great food

by spectator51 at Citysearch

We eat here every two or three weeks. I've eaten at other Olive Garden restaurants in the area but I like this one best because the staff are so pleasant and friendly. The food is always very good and new dishes are added to the menu on a regular basis. There is a good selection of wine and beer and several delicious desserts. We try to go either early or late though because it can get crowded.

  • Pros: delicious food & friendly, efficient service
  • Cons: may have to wait at peak times

Only one complaint about the Olive Garden

by helmutvongonzalez at Citysearch

The only thing I dislike about the Olive Garden are the average guests. Corporate restaurants have the reputation for giving into customers who mistake the Olive Garden for Denny's or McDonalds. I understand the all you can eat salad and breadsticks drives them in in droves, but to complain about overcooked pasta? Or service not being fast enough? If the restaurant is good enough to fit your bill, it should be good enough for a higher rating than 0, don't you think? Denny's is located down the street, by the way.
