Spouse and I found ourselves at the Marriott Courtyard in Vacaville at the end of a driving escape to Sonoma wine country. Olive Garden is walking distance from hotel. Usually I avoid chain restos, but we were not in the mood to drive around. We were seated promptly, perhaps because we were about ten minutes ahead of the crowd. This... More

My first time at Olive Garden for dinner visiting with family. Had a good crowd but we still got our orders in good time. Food was good and the service was outstanding.

lot's of great choices to choose from menu. I strongly recommend olive garden. I like italian food. More than serviceable. Good wines, and always love the bottomless salads and breadsticks. Not a ton of vegetarian options, and it's surprisingly expensive for a chain of its calibre. Still, my fiance loved his fettucine alfredo with shrimp. I was a bit less... More

My family (30+ people) have gathered at the Olive Garden for the last 2 years and both times we have experienced great food and good service. I called a week in advance and informed them that we would be coming in on a Sunday afternoon. They were more than accommodating and had a large enough dinning area to fit our... More

We are a fan of Olive Gardens in general and usually stop at this location on the way out of the bay area and have experienced great meals and great service. However during our most recent visit the meal was great, but the service was spotty. Our visit was on a mid afternoon weekday. The restaurant was about half full,... More

Enjoyed the food and bread sticks. The waitress was very nice. The first serving of the spicy potato soup was a little watery but the second was better. All members of the party enjoyed their selections.

The Olive Garden is in the vicinity of the Vacaville Outlet Mall. After shopping, it is a great place to stretch out and rest. Great food, nice ambiance, accomodating staff and adequate parking.

Picked the Olive Garden as it was so close to the hotel we were staying and felt like pasta for dinner. Service was good and meals were good nothing more nothing less of other Olive Gardens we have been to. The next night we could not decide on another restaurant so we returned. The only negative thing we could come... More

Faux Italian food that doesn't seem fresh. Mediocre at best, terrible at the worst. Really, stay at home and cook your own Italian. It will be better.

This restaurant is fine. It's a chain Italian restaurant, and that's what it tastes like. It would be fine, if we weren't in an area with so many excellent Italian restaurants. We are more than happy to make the drive to Davis to eat at Cafe Italia, which is really exceptional instead of just okay.
