" I had a birthday dinner at Olive Garden, and it was mostly a success. The server brought us our drinks promptly and made sure we had enough breadsticks, which was nice. However, my main course took a while, and when it arrived, it wasn't very warm. The food was tasty, but the service could have been faster. All in all, I had a good time thanks to my friends and the atmosphere was very celebratory! " (*Curated Review*)

" Disappointed! I typically enjoy Olive Garden, but my last visit was riddled with problems. Our server frequently forgot our drink orders and it took an eternity for our food to arrive. The lasagna was undercooked, and I ended up sending it back. I appreciated the manager’s concern, but it still left a bad taste in my mouth. I hope they can improve because I would like to see them return to their former glory. " (*Curated Review*)

" Olive Garden always seems to hit the spot for Italian food cravings. Their breadsticks are legendary! I tried the fettuccine alfredo and it was creamy and delicious. A few tables were filled when I got there, but my wait time was quick. Service was very pleasant and attentive. I definitely recommend this place for a comforting Italian meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" This was one of the best dining experiences I’ve had! We treated ourselves to a full Italian feast and it was well worth it. My favorite was the lobster ravioli; it was cooked perfectly and paired wonderfully with the sauce! Our server was a delight and made the night leisurely and easy-going. I've got to come back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" An average experience at Olive Garden. The food was decent, but nothing that made me say wow. Service was okay, but I felt a little neglected at times. The ambiance was good – it felt cozy but a little loud. I might give it another try down the line, but I hoped for more. " (*Curated Review*)

" Unfortunately, I do not see the appeal that others have towards Olive Garden. I found the food bland and uninteresting. My server took a while to even greet us, and during our meal, they only came by twice. Perhaps on another day, I would have a better experience, but this time left me indifferent. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had to try the never-ending pasta bowl at Olive Garden, and it was delicious! The service was friendly, but I was disappointed with the portion sizes on certain dishes. They were good, but I expected a little more for what I was paying. Still, I walked away with a good meal and a smile on my face. " (*Curated Review*)
