" I had a wonderful anniversary dinner at Olive Garden! We were seated promptly and our server was attentive and charming. I enjoyed the seafood alfredo and my partner had the chicken parm. Both dishes were wonderful, and we left with full bellies. What a lovely evening! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't express how great the service was at this location! Our server, Daisy, was attentive and made excellent suggestions from the menu. I really enjoyed the five-cheese ziti al forno, but my friend said his lasagna was a bit undercooked. Still, overall, we had a good dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had dinner here with my friends and we had a great time! The food was delicious, especially the spaghetti and meatballs. Our server was very friendly, but we had to wait a while for the breadsticks. Overall, a fun night and I’d come back again. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’m a frequent visitor at Olive Garden, and I usually enjoy it! However, this visit was not up to par. The breadsticks were stale and my meal arrived late. The server was sweet but seemed to be overwhelmed. I hope they improve on their timing next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" I love Olive Garden, and this visit did not disappoint. The seafood alfredo was rich and satisfying, while my dining partner enjoyed the chicken parmesan. The only downside was that we waited quite a while for our food. Still, I’d suggest it to anyone! " (*Curated Review*)

" My visit to Olive Garden was mediocre at best. I ordered the Shrimp Alfredo and it tasted bland. The server was friendly, but I felt like we were neglected for too long. The garlic breadsticks were the star of the meal but I was left overall unsatisfied. I don't know if I would return anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I always go to Olive Garden to get my favorite - the Tour of Italy! It's such a great deal and it comes with so much food. My family loves their Zuppa Toscana, too. The only downside was that it took a while for the food to arrive, but it was worth the wait. I love the casual, family-friendly atmosphere. " (*Curated Review*)
