Great location! They were able to seat our group of 7 quickly on a Saturday night. Our waitress handled special requests and dietary needs really well. The restaurant environment was never overwhelmingly loud even though it was busy. The food was delicious and prepared as ordered.

Mom and I almost had a heart attack when the server returned to tell us they were out of salmon. PTL when she returned with menus so we could choose something else the salmon came in!!! We love the salmon and broccoli at Olive Garden. The bottomless salad and bread sticks are always a bonus. Now that I eat healthier, pasta is out and they stopped serving zucchini instead of pasta so salmon is all that’s left. Thank you for making amazing salmon and broccoli. And my sister couldn’t even eat all her lunch size chicken Alfredo which she said was really good. We had a wonderful server too.

Absolutely great! Ordered the ravioli carbonera which is amazing. Only complaint would be I wish they had more options for dressings for the salad.

If I could give 10 stars for service I would. I ordered pasta with soup and a salad. I asked for extra Parm and got it. My to-go waitress was Avery. She is a gem and really went overboard to make use my to-go order was 100% the way I like it. Great restaurant, great food and Avery made my day!

The food was very good, and we had a wonderful time. We had a seat in a weird area of the restaurant, but that didn’t stop us from having a good time. It did cost a good bit of dinner for all of our food (2 appetizers, 2 dinners, and 2 desserts came out to about $100), but it’s to be expected.

I haven’t been to Olive Garden in 3 years. Now I remember why it’s been so long! I sat at the bar since they were busy and I was dining alone. I ordered the 6 Oz sirloin, rare, with grilled onions and mushrooms, broccoli and soup. When the bartender brought my steak, the onions and mushrooms were RAW. I sent them back to be sautéed. The steak was very tough, lots of gristle, and the broccoli was undercooked and DRY. The soup was good, though. I paid with a gift card. After filling out how much of a tip I wanted to give, which was more than I should have given, the guy swept the ticket and my gift card, and walked away. Left me sitting there for 10 minutes before I asked for my card back! I doubt I’ll be back even though I still have money on the gift card.

Tony is absolutely amazing! Every time I visit Olive Garden, I make sure to ask for him as my server because he always goes above and beyond to make my dining experience exceptional. His attentiveness and friendly demeanor are unmatched, and he always makes sure that everything is just perfect.

We all know what the Olive Garden is. I hadn’t been there for years because I just didn’t felt the need. However I had the opportunity to stop for lunch with some business associates. We went for the soup and salad and absolutely enjoyed ourselves. The salad was fresh and crisp. The breadsticks we’re smothered in garlic and butter. And all the soup I had was just excellent. Unlimited cheese on top of everything. The atmosphere was light and refreshing.
