The food is great. Unlimited "The Soup AND Salad AND Bread sticks" is amazing. I feel in love with those bread sticks. We ordered Minestrone soup and that turned out to be delicious.
For the main course, we had Fettuccine Alfredo, and it could have been better TBH.
Coming to the ambience, there isn't anything specific to complement. Having said that, I have no complaints. I would give a 4/5 score. Some from lighting with a background music would have made the ambience score 5/5.
Service is good. Overall, I liked the place and I see myself going again soon.
Was absolutely delicious!! I had the chicken parm lunch special and it was so good I Eve took some home! Also got these yummy desserts too! The black tie torte and brownie lasagna!
Wasn't busy when we were there. Around 4pm. But by 5pm there was a long wait. Call ahead seating is the way too go. Food was absolutely delicious.
Believe it or not, I've never been to Olive Garden. Needless to say, I was absolutely blown away by the intricacies of the interior layout. I truly felt transported to an Italian villa. Please reference the photos.
Service was great. There was an issue with one of our orders, and it was quickly resolved. They were understanding of our dietary needs, and patient with my understanding of the menu.
The only reason this review is four stars and not five, was due to the nature of Olive Garden itself. Have you ever heard of the endless breadstick bowl? You're never meant to try and find the bottom. Once you get past the first bowl, each successive breadstick makes you wonder why you're eating another. The portion sizes are large, fit for a true American experience, but that's the thing. This is Olive Garden, Italian restaurant. Not Johnny rockets. I don't know where I'm going with this one.
Anyways I may be back.
Our server, Nick, was great! Very attentive, checked in on our food/drinks, and kept conversation throughout the night. Staff overall was great and sang happy birthday to my mom. 10/10!
Good site seeing
