" My family and I went to Olive Garden for a special occasion and were quite disappointed. First, we had to wait a long time even with a reservation. Once seated, the service was slow; it took forever for our server to take our orders. We were excited about trying the endless pasta, but when it arrived, it was lukewarm and somewhat bland. I opted for the chicken parmesan, which was dry and lacked flavor. The atmosphere was decent, but we anticipated much more given the reputation. Not sure if we will return any time soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" My wife and I came in for a date night, and we were both impressed. Our server was attentive and gave us great recommendations. The Never Ending Pasta Bowl was a highlight for me. I enjoyed the fettuccine, and it paired well with a bottle of house red wine. We finished off with the chocolate cake for dessert. The atmosphere is perfect for a romantic dinner, and we left feeling satisfied. Can't wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've always loved Olive Garden, but my last visit was disappointing. While the ambiance was great, my Chicken Marcela was overcooked. Our server was unhelpful and seemed overwhelmed. It took forever for our drinks to arrive. The manager offered us a discount, which was appreciated, but I felt as though other diners were receiving better service. I might give it another try at a different location. " (*Curated Review*)

" Came here with a colleague after work for a quick bite. The service was mediocre; we had to flag down our server several times for refills. My spaghetti and meatballs were pretty standard—nothing to write home about. I expected more from a place like Olive Garden. The breadsticks were amazing, but the highlight of our meal was the dessert: tiramisu. Overall, it was a decent experience but nothing extraordinary. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was celebrating my birthday at Olive Garden this past weekend, and the experience was lovely. My server was super attentive, and they surprised me with a complimentary dessert. I ordered the stuffed shells with shrimp, which was more delicious than I expected! My family shared a variety of dishes, and every one of us enjoyed our meals. I appreciate the constant breadstick refills! I'll absolutely be back for another birthday celebration! " (*Curated Review*)

" Unfortunately, I have to say my visit to Olive Garden was less than stellar. We arrived to a long wait even though I made a reservation, and then the service was slow. It seemed like all the servers were overwhelmed that evening. The food was adequate, but the fettuccine was underseasoned. I still like the breadsticks, though! I'm not too sure if I would return anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" Went for lunch with some friends and had a wonderful time! The salad and breadsticks were fresh and kept coming. I had the herbed grilled salmon, which was fantastic! I would say it’s a bit pricey, but worth it. Our service was friendly, but a tad slow at times since they seemed quite busy. Still, it was a lovely outing, and I can’t smuggle to recommend this place. " (*Curated Review*)
