" I decided to try out Olive Garden after hearing about their vegetarian options. I went with the spinach and ricotta ravioli and was pleasantly surprised by the flavor! It was delightful, and the balance of cheese and spinach was just perfect. The server was amiable, checking in on us regularly. I also loved the warm breadsticks, which paired perfectly with my meal. Although I did find the prices a bit steep for Italian food, the quality made it worthwhile. I’d recommend this place to my vegetarian friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" My recent visit to Olive Garden was quite enjoyable! The food was flavorful, and I tried the shrimp scampi, which was great though could use a bit more sauce. Our server was lively and kept our drinks filled throughout the evening. The salads, as always, were fresh and crisp. I appreciated the cleanliness of the place too! Overall, a reliable option, but I still wish they’d bring back some of the discontinued dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Olive Garden for a casual dinner with friends. The wait time wasn’t long, and we were quickly seated. The salad and breadsticks were fresh as usual, but the main entrée, I ordered the seafood fettucine, felt a little soggy. The flavors were nice, just not what I expected. The atmosphere was lively, and our server was very friendly. Although I wasn’t fully satisfied with my dish, overall it’s still one of my favorite restaurants. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was fortunate to enjoy an incredible dinner at Olive Garden last weekend. I must say the new menu options showcase some creativity while maintaining that authentic Italian flair. I opted for the eggplant parmesan, which was superb! The serving was generous, and the flavors were rich yet balanced. My friend's chicken piccata also received high praise. Our server was cheerful and attentive, making the evening so much more enjoyable. We actually over-ordered, but all of it was so good we didn’t mind taking leftovers home! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Olive Garden with coworkers for a quick lunch break. The service was swift, and the server was very attentive. I ordered the minestrone soup and the salad, which came fresh and crunchy. My colleagues enjoyed their pasta dishes and looked satisfied. Although the meals were comforting, I wish the prices were a bit lower. However, the ambiance was really nice, and it made for a pleasant lunch. I might return with family for a more leisurely dinner. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have to be honest; I was a bit disappointed during my recent visit. While the salad and breadsticks were up to the usual standard, my main dish, the shrimp scampi, was overcooked and lacked flavor. The server, although friendly, didn’t come by often enough to check in. I felt like we were left waiting, especially for our drinks. I’ve had better experiences in the past, so I hope they can get back to their usual quality. Will probably give it another shot as I've always loved their atmosphere. " (*Curated Review*)

" Olive Garden has always been a family favorite. The kids love the endless soup and salad, and we're all fans of the breadsticks. Recently, we ordered the tour of Italy and absolutely loved the flavors. Everything was hot and fresh, and my oldest couldn’t get enough of the chicken parmesan! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, perfect for family gatherings. Our server was attentive and made great recommendations. We left full and happy, with enough leftovers for lunch the next day. Can’t wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)
