" I frequented Olive Garden back in college, and I must say, returning brought back nostalgia. The breadsticks were still the highlight, but I noticed the lasagna lacked the flavor it used to have. It was a lot of cheese and not much else. The atmosphere was bustling, echoing with laughter and chatter, which I loved. Our server was attentive, but there was a slight delay in receiving our drinks. I might come back, but I hope the entrees improve. " (*Curated Review*)

" Olive Garden is my guilty pleasure! Whenever I'm in the mood for comfort food, this is where I go. I especially love their tour of Italy. It's a fantastic way to sample different dishes. On my last visit, I was greeted with a warm welcome and seated right away. The service was fast, and I barely had to wait for my food. The only downside was my fettuccine was a bit overcooked this time. I'll definitely be back though. Love the ambiance! " (*Curated Review*)

" My kids love coming here for the endless breadsticks! We enjoy the kid's meals which are always generously portioned. I usually stick with the Chicken Scampi, while my spouse enjoys the lasagna. The flavors are good, though I wouldn't say they're the most authentic Italian dishes. The service is generally good, dependably fast. This is a family favorite, and we try to come at least once a month! " (*Curated Review*)

" This Olive Garden location is reliable for a decent meal. I enjoyed my spaghetti and meatballs, which were hearty and filling. The salad was fresh, and the dressing was perfect. My service was a bit less than stellar, as our waiter was inattentive. However, the rest of the experience made up for it. I wouldn't mind returning for a casual dinner. " (*Curated Review*)

" Decided to treat myself to Olive Garden after a long week, but it turned out to be a mixed bag. The minestrone soup was delightful, but the main meal—shrimp alfredo—was subpar and a bit bland. No flavor explosion there! Ambience was cozy, and I loved the décor, but I felt let down with the main course. Service was okay; our waiter seemed a bit distracted. May give it another shot, but I expect better. " (*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*)
