" The Olive Garden experience can be hit or miss. During my last visit with family, the service was excellent, always attentive and friendly. I had the lasagna which was good, but it didn’t have that homemade charm I expected. We enjoyed our time together, but there's definitely room for improvement in the authenticity of the dishes served here. Certainly a lively spot for a casual family meal though! " (*Curated Review*)

" Our family had dinner at Olive Garden for the first time, and the experience was more than satisfactory! The menu had extensive options, and we appreciated the generous portions. The service was impeccable! I especially loved the endless salad. Yet, I felt some items weren't hitting the right notes of authenticity; my Chicken Marcela lacked depth. Overall, the warmth of the staff made up for any flaws. " (*Curated Review*)

" My husband and I decided to dine at Olive Garden for our Friday date night. The moment we walked in, we felt welcomed. Our server was attentive and the ambiance was nice. However, the food didn't impress. I got the marinara with spaghetti and while it tasted decent, it was nothing compared to the homemade pasta I used to have growing up. I think we will keep searching for that authentic Italian experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Olive Garden last weekend for a birthday celebration and it was an overall good experience. Our waiter was prompt, bringing our drinks quickly and checking on us often. I decided to order the seafood and it was decent, but had higher expectations for the seafood alfredo. It was creamy, yes, but where was the flavor? Good part was the empanadas we had as appetizers—they were delightful! I must say the atmosphere was lively, but I’m unsure if I’ll return specifically for the entrees. " (*Curated Review*)

" My husband and I were celebrating an anniversary and opted for Olive Garden. The dinner started well with prompt seating and friendly staff. However, the food felt a bit bland compared to what I expected from an Italian restaurant. I ordered the Tour of Italy and was excited but got a bit underwhelmed. It’s a solid option for casual dining but keep your expectations tailored for a chain restaurant. " (*Curated Review*)

" Just had a family dinner at Olive Garden, and I have mixed feelings. The atmosphere is always nice, and I love the breadsticks! I ordered the chicken fettuccine, expecting it to be creamier, but it seemed a tad off this time. Definitely not the same flavor as previous visits. Service was speedy, but I wish the authenticity matched the quality that I remember. " (*Curated Review*)

" Last night was my first time dining at Olive Garden, and frankly, I had high hopes. The atmosphere was inviting, but the food fell short. I tried the fettuccine Alfredo and it was overly creamy without any distinct flavors. The service was attentive, but I really expected more authenticity in the cuisine. I don't think I would be eager to return, given my experience. " (*Curated Review*)
