Food was basic Italian with moderate servings. Very long wait to get in on a weekend. Service was great and seating comfortable.

I like Olive Garden. Some locations I would do 4 stars some 5. This building has lots of corners inside and I think it makes it a bit tough for the servers.

Always enjoy a meal at the olive garden. Love the salad and breadsticks. My husband loved their chicken and dumplings soup. My absolute favorite dessert is the black tie mouse cake!

This restaurant is in our hometown and we go there every month or so. The food we order is always good and the service is quick and courteous. We like the opportunity to test the wine they are featuring which is an added feature. The prices are reasonable which keeps the restaurant pretty busy at eating times.

We love the food at Olive Garden, even if it is a chain. We have never had a bad meal and the staff has been great.

Service is always fantastic here, although the wait is usually pretty long. The food is good but doesn't bowl me over. The rest of my family would probably give it 4 stars though. I love the salad and the garlic bread, but I always order the same thing and it is just alright. I am a picky eater, so can't... More
