" I had a mixed experience at Olive Garden. The service was friendly, but we had to wait quite a while for our meals to arrive, which was frustrating for us since we were really hungry. I ordered the shrimp scampi, and while it was tasty, I felt it could have used more seasoning to really stand out. Additionally, the unlimited salad and breadsticks are as good as ever! Overall, I'd give a solid 3.5, leaning towards a 4 considering the food quality. " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first visit to Olive Garden, and I was pleasantly surprised! While I had heard mixed reviews about their authenticity, I found the dishes to be well-prepared and tasty, especially the fettuccine alfredo which was creamy and comforting. Our server was friendly but seemed a bit rushed. Overall, it was a good dining experience, although I would like to explore different Italian restaurants for comparison. " (*Curated Review*)

" Olive Garden is becoming my go-to restaurant for family dinners! We recently tried the new limited-time menu featuring different types of pasta and were blown away. The flavors contrasted beautifully, and the portion sizes were generous enough to share. Of course, I couldn’t resist the traditional breadsticks and salad! The ambiance felt very welcoming, which added to the occasion. Just be prepared for a wait during peak times. Altogether, I definitely recommend it. " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to Olive Garden with my partner after wanting Italian for a while. The menu had a good variety, and the unlimited soup and salad was a great perk. However, my main dish, the chicken marsala, was overcooked and slightly rubbery. Despite the service being friendly, I was left unsatisfied with my meal experience. A second visit isn't top of my list, but I might try their takeout. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an unremarkable meal here last week. The food, while edible, tasted mass-produced and lacked authenticity for my taste buds. Service was decent yet very impersonal. The ambiance was the only saving grace, somewhat busy but bright and friendly. I doubt I will be back again unless someone else suggests it. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Olive Garden on a rainy Saturday with high expectations. While the soup and salad were commendable, my main dish, the eggplant parmesan, was a letdown—a bit too soggy for my preference. The ambiance kept a cheerful tone due to the ambiance, but I would expect better quality from a restaurant specializing in Italian cuisine. Will think twice before revisiting. " (*Curated Review*)

" I enjoyed my overall experience at Olive Garden. The food quality seemed refreshed compared to past visits, and I indulged in their chicken alfredo which was comforting and filling. The waitstaff were thorough and friendly; my glass was always filled. However, there was a slight wait time before we received our entrees. Nevertheless, I left quite satisfied with the service and the meal. " (*Curated Review*)
