“First time visiting. They are located right by the bumper cars on Knotts berry farm. Love their modernized soda machine with what seems like hundreds of different flavors. Food was good too and lots of space to seat and eat. I was on the farm for 11 hours and no matter what time I went back to refill my drink cup, they always had room to seat. I highly recommend!“

“My second time visiting this great establishment. Once again, the pizza and all that they serve is ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!!! I had some caprese , burata, Fior Di Latte and the Vespa Pizza along with a Limonata Rosa. Our Service Yadira was amazing and very attentive. She was very helpful with any questions we had. Thank you Yadira and all the staff at Fuoco. Definitely my favorite Pizza!!! See you soon!“

“Great food and a wonderful experience.“

“Between 1983 and 1995 I ate lunch almost daily at to your restaurant. In 95 I moved away from Southern California. When ever I visit the area I stop in for a bite. Best pizza in the world! The pasta is excellent. I now live in the Lake Tahoe area and there's nothing even close to it here or anywhere else for that matter (and lve been to NY and Jersey). Everything I've ever ordered there has been fantastic.“

“The food is always great, and on Tuesdays they have 1/2 off a second entree when you buy the first. I personally love their salad so much that I would go there just for that alone, and im not really a salad person. Service is always phenomenal and the vibes are nice. I do wish they had the buckler non alcoholic drink that's on the menu, but they necer seem to have it. Highly recommend this place.“

“My husband and I came to Disneyland for our anniversary. We were looking for a place near our hotel and this did not disappoint. The atmosphere was fabulous and serving staff was great. Our food was AMAZING and we had soo much. We brought food back to the hotel and they gave us plates to take with us. Definitely one of our new favorites and will be coming back when we visit“

“We really can’t seem to drive past an Olive Garden — it’s like there’s this magic field that traps us in its charm.
The Anaheim location was exactly the perfectly expected meal we’ve now added to our Top 5 must‑have meals when visiting the USA, and for good reason — THE VALUE IS BEYOND EXCEPTIONAL.

Everything about a meal here has us hooked. We genuinely LOVE OLIVE GARDEN.
From the staff, to the flavours, to the variety, to the price point — it’s everything you want when travelling and the perfect choice for a solid daily meal.

My daughter can’t go past the spag + schnitty combo with a side of broccoli, while I like to switch things up… but honestly, the Shrimp Scampi is almost impossible to pass up.
Because we were visiting in winter, we chose the chicken gnocchi soup as our side — absolute comfort in a bowl.“

“the Pescatore with garlic cream was excellent. As was the cold table water in a glass bottle,nice touch. Calamari and garlic bread appetizers were also very good. I would have liked a bit more atmosphere of an Italian restaurant and not 80's music playing in the background. Took my family for dinner first time and I would go back.“

“I got their never ending pasta special starting at $15.99. It was really good. The first pasta you order will come in a large plate. And the refills will come in smaller plate.

You get unlimited pasta and soup and your choice of protein if you pay extra.

Overall, it was nice to try the different type of pasta they had. Take advantage of this deal for it's gone.“

It's fairly close to my house. The guy that served me was Chris and he was very nice and friendly. I will recommend this place to my family and friends. I look forward to coming back and trying other dishes.“

“Today Is My Wife's Birthday And For The VERY First Time Olive Garden In Downey Was At Its Best! EVERYTHING Was Perfect! I Sure Hope It Stays This Way, The Time Over And Over! Thank You For Making Her Birthday Lunch/Dinner GREAT! ❤️“

“It was a Sunday evening (4/5/26), and my family of three came in for dinner. Even though the restaurant was busy, the atmosphere was still very pleasant and welcoming.

Our waiter, Ben, was attentive, professional, and provided excellent service throughout our visit. George, the manager, was also very kind and approachable. He consistently checked in to make sure we had everything we needed, which made us feel truly valued as customers.

It’s so nice to see a restaurant that still takes the time to care about their guests and provide such great service. Experiences like this are what every family should receive when dining out.

Thank you so much, George and Ben, for always giving my family the best service—we truly appreciate it!

“I wanted to provide some feedback on my recent dining experience at your establishment.

The food that was served was delicious and definitely exceeded my expectations. However, I must express some concerns about the service that we received. The host assigned to our table did not check up on our needs as often as I had hoped for. I found myself continually having to ask for assistance and even had to raise my voice to get the attention of another hostess.

Moreover, the silverware provided was not clean, and the napkins given with the silverware were also not up to par. I believe that cleanliness should be a top priority in any dining establishment.“

“Beautiful ambiance Good Food and Good Drinks The GM Alex was very friendly and hospitable Thank You Alex We will be back!“

“The place can get a little busy when the mall is busy but totally worth the wait if you want good food and drinks. I recommend the Crispy Eggplant Parmesan, Grilled Bread & Good Olive Oil and the Yellowtail Crudo. Super delicious and great starters!“

“love the food and service is great“
