" After visiting Olive Garden, I came away with some mixed feelings. The service was excellent—our waitress was attentive and friendly. Unfortunately, I found my meal quite bland. I ordered the baked ziti, which I expected to be very cheese-forward, but it lacked the punch I anticipated. The unlimited breadsticks were fantastic, and I enjoyed the salad immensely. Overall, the atmosphere was pleasant, and while I enjoyed the experience, the food certainly left something to be desired. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently hosted a family gathering at Olive Garden, and I couldn't be happier with the service we received. From start to finish, the staff were engaging and attentive, making us feel genuinely cared for. I sampled several dishes, including the shrimp scampi, which could have used more flavor, and the chicken Parmesan, which was comforting but felt a bit oily. The portion sizes are generous, and the unlimited breadsticks made the dinner feel special. The atmosphere was lovely for a family dinner. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Olive Garden this past week and was reminded of why I love this place! The food was excellent; fresh, tasty, and comforting. I had the Five Cheese Ziti and added a side of meatballs, which brought the whole dish together. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. I took advantage of their endless soup and salad special, so I definitely left feeling stuffed! My server was thoughtful and made sure we had everything we needed without being intrusive. Overall, I would highly recommend this location to anyone who enjoys hearty Italian-American cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" I decided to stop by Olive Garden for a quick dinner and was greeted with exceptional service right from the start! The staff was delightful, and I enjoyed the warm breadsticks with my soup. I had the chicken piccata, which was quite good, although I would have preferred a little more lemon flavor. The ambiance was nice, though a bit crowded. I appreciate the consistency of Olive Garden and will ensure to stop by again when I crave their comforting meals! " (*Curated Review*)

" I tried Olive Garden for a casual lunch with some friends, and it was just delightful! The salad was fresh and crispy, and the breadsticks took me back to my childhood. What I really loved was how welcoming the environment felt. I had the Chicken Marsala, and it was decent, but I felt it could use a better balance of flavors. My service was noteworthy, as our waiter was friendly and very patient as we dithered over our orders. I look forward to coming back again, especially for the comforting atmosphere.

" I had a wonderful dinner at Olive Garden! The ambiance was warm, and the staff were incredibly sweet. I had the Gnocchi soup, which was comforting and delicious. For my main, I chose the Ravioli di Portobello, which I absolutely loved! The flavors were rich, and the portion was generous. I had a very pleasant experience dining here, and I will be recommending it to my friends. Plus, the dessert was to die for! " (*Curated Review*)

" I love the endless soup, salad, and breadsticks at Olive Garden! It’s such a great deal. The service was amazing; my waiter was attentive without being overbearing. I tried the chicken gnocchi soup and it was delightful, while my friend ordered the marinara spaghetti which she said was quite good. The only downside was the noise level; it was a bit loud during peak times. Overall, I had a really good experience and will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)
