" Having tried multiple Olive Garden locations, I have to say this one stands out for its service! The staff here are delightful and always ready to help. I had the chicken and shrimp carbonara, and while it was tasty, I wish it had a bit more sauce. The breadsticks were, as always, the star! I appreciate that you can enjoy unlimited options. The atmosphere was busy but well managed; we felt taken care of throughout our meal. I will definitely come here again! " (*Curated Review*)

" I tried Olive Garden for the first time last week and really enjoyed it. I ordered the soup and salad combo, which was perfect for a light lunch. The salad was fresh with crunchy veggies, and the soup was warm and filling. The waitstaff were genuinely friendly, which made the meal even more enjoyable. I would come back to try other dishes! Only minor complaint was the wait time for getting seated—it was a little longer than expected. " (*Curated Review*)

" I haven't been to Olive Garden for a while, but I was pleasantly surprised during my last visit! The atmosphere felt homey and welcoming. Our server was attentive and polite. I had the chicken fettuccine alfredo, which was creamy and comforting, but I felt that the dish could use more seasoning to elevate its flavor. The portion was generous though, which I appreciated. I will definitely come back again for a casual meal with family. " (*Curated Review*)

" An overall pleasant experience at Olive Garden! The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. We started with the calamari, which was surprisingly good! I ordered the classic lasagna, and while it was satisfactory, it didn't blow me away. The portions are generous—my plate was overflowing! I also appreciated their flexible menu that caters to various dietary needs. The ambiance was family-friendly, which made it a nice outing with my kids. " (*Curated Review*)

" Our visit to Olive Garden was pleasant but had a few hiccups. The highlight of the meal was our server, who was attentive and friendly. I ordered a pesto pasta dish that intrigued me, but I found it lacked depth in flavor; it felt like it was missing seasoning. The unlimited salad was fresh, and the breadsticks were the best! I appreciated that they check on you often, but overall, it didn’t quite live up to my expectations. Still, I’m willing to give it another try to see if the food improves. " (*Curated Review*)

" 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*)
