Olive Garden Italian Restaurant

Location: around Queen center mall.

Service: very good!

Ambiance: clean and decent. Bathrooms clean too I have to mention. Haha

Food: Tried their soups (zuppa toscana) um it was alright for starter and chicken tortelloni alfredo ( Highly Recommend!!) and their very tasty and soft bread sticks with it. Grilled or sauted salmon and shrimp scampi (it was okay) . Also calamari was okay. Over all we had fun trying their menu.

We came in on Saturday early afternoon no problem being seated.
Drinks to start I had an Italian sunrise , hubby had a Sicilian sunset they are new to the menu they were great, nice taste decent on the alcohol too not bad if it wasn't for the food being so heavy probably would've had a nicer buzz by the time we left!
No appetizers this time it's just too much unless u have more than 2 people, the Salad & breadstick to start our meal was plenty, specially if u get seconds on the bread sticks they are so good hard to resist.
Main dishes I had the Shrimp scampi this time & it did not disappoint nice tasting sauce , good shrimp & pasta.
Hubby had the Chicken & shrimp carbonara nice combo good sauce chicken & shrimp.
I decided to up the stars because for the most part every time we visit the food is consistently the same which is a plus if u stick to the basics u tend to have no issues w the dishes they have a decent variety.
I've never had an issue with the service, prices are decent plus they do offer a lot of specials, quiet dinning for the most part music is low not a lot of options for a decent sit down meal in the area so this place serves it's purpose.

The service is a bit slow, my partner and I waited 15 minutes for someone to take our order, but we came on a Saturday so that's a bit understandable. Our server was friendly and the food was tasty. We got all you can eat pasta and we were full by the first plate. But, we still tried to eat more and we ordered our second bowl, our server ended up giving us to go boxes which was really nice of her. My first plate was rigatoni with meat sauce and meatballs, the meatballs were the highlight of the dish. I got zuppa toscana, it's usually so delicious but when I got it this time, the meat tasted uncooked. My second plate was fettuccine Alfredo, it was a bit dry.
Food- 7/10
Service- 7.5/10

I came here once and knew I had to come back before giving the 5 stars to make sure it wasn't just once. This is quite the treat. First of all, the place is very nice looking. Great and friendly staff too. The wait wasn't long at all. We get sat and the first time I got the 6oz Sirloin which I thought was good. It wasn't the best steak by all means, but wasn't particularly bad either. But the second time, I had the Chicken Alfredo, which was amazing. I am craving it as I write about it. The fact that you can go there and get the chicken Alfredo, plus unlimited salad, soup, and breadsticks for $25 is a steal in my option and is a great price for what you get. I've heard some hard core Italians talk bad about this place because it isn't "real Italian" but I think they are just biased because this place as it stands on its own is great. Perfect place, couldn't find anything wrong with it.

Solid outing at Olive Garden! It's what you'd expect and it's a fun atmosphere. Unlimited soup and salad. Unlimited bread sticks. And all those taste good.

Wines were surprisingly decent. The merlot was a Mondavi special from Napa, California. The rose desert wine was an Italian import.

Shrimp scampi was very nice. 10 or so plump shrimps on a bed of Angel hair pasta.

I had the pleasure of dining at Olive Garden today for the first time and overall, I must say that I was quite impressed. The food was spot on - the dishes I tried - soup, salad, eggplant parmigiana, and chicken parmigiana - were all delicious.

The service, while friendly, was a bit erratic. They got our order wrong at one point, but they were quick to fix it and made it right. Despite this small hiccup, I thoroughly enjoyed my first experience at Olive Garden.

One thing that particularly stood out to me was the background music, which was very enjoyable and added to the overall atmosphere of the restaurant. Additionally, the prices were very reasonable, especially considering the convenient location right next to the shopping mall.

While there were a few bumps along the way, the food and atmosphere more than made up for it and I would definitely return in the future.

Service and food are the worst of any restaurant. Employees are rude and unprofessional. I will never be eating here again.

Finally I get to have the breadsticks fresh and not oily!! I definitely enjoyed everything except for when I waited a while for my pasta to be made to then get the wrong dish so then I had to wait even more. I understand people do make mistakes but for a waitress coming numerous times to check on my table I would think she would have gotten the order correctly when ordered. Nonetheless the food was good and the Coca Cola was fresh and not flat at all! I went on a gloomy Wed in April and there was more than enough parking spaces and the restaurant wasn't packed at all. Luckily I never have to wait when coming here either.

I haven't been to an Olive Garden in YEARS !!
I wasn't missing anything.
Staff (I mean no one) wasn't knowledgeable about vegan dishes.
So disappointing!
My margarita was the worst I've had and that shot was so weird.
I don't know.
Salad was embarrassing, didn't bother taking pic.
It will be years before I ever get desperate to return to an Olive Garden if I EVER do.

To each their own.
Enjoy.

I've seen the commercials but never had Olive Garden before so I decided to give it a try. Unfortunately the food is a bit disappointing. It's very mediocre. I got shrimp alfredo and five cheese ziti. Each entree comes with a choice of soup or salad. Got one salad and a chicken gnocchi soup. Salad was ok but not as good as some people make it seem. I wouldn't order it if it wasn't free. Soup didn't have much gnocchi. It goes pretty well with the bread sticks though. The pasta was simplistic and a bit plain. The alfredo is not very creamy; I can make better alfredo sauce at home. If you want good pasta go to Carmine's or a real Italian restaurant.
