We came as a party of 18. Sadly we were seated in a crammed space, spoke to management and they helped us move into a more comfortable table. Henry was our server, he was very nice, very patient and over all a great server. Managed to get everyone’s food and drinks out as ordered in a timely manner. Food was as expected. Again thanks for the experience.

Had lunch at Olive Garden today! We went for the lunch special with unlimited salad and soup, and made our own pasta with shrimp and shrimp scampi. The kids had Shrimp Alfredo pasta. Everything was super tasty and our server was really nice too!

I had not been to Olive Garden for probably about 20 years. The reason I stopped eating there is because, over time, their restaurants seemed to become noisy & loud, I felt as though they often rushed/pushed me through my meal in an attempt to 'turn my table over' to increase their profits &, I felt that although the food was okay good (how hard is it really to make pastas/sauces, bread, salad or soups), it didn't stand iut in any way & prices seemed to jump upward to a level that, to me, didn't justify my experiences & wants. However, I was given a gift card about 5 years ago that I kept, but put away. My partner & I recently decided that it was time to give the Olive Garden another try so we went to their location near the Cerritos Mall for lunch. My first surprise was, that although they appeared to be somewhat busy with about 6 to 8 people hovering around the front desk as well as about 5 or so people standing or sitting in the entry/waiting area, we were seated immediately. Being in the dining area & looking around, my assumption that they were busy seemed to be confirmed as I could only see, maybe, about 2 empty tables across the entire restaurant & a lot of busy staff moving about. In spite of this, we were quickly greeted by our server, who, during our entire visit, was friendly, courteous, professional, informative & did a great job of returning in a reasonable amount of time to take our order, quickly bring us our initial drinks & appetizer orders, deliver our main courses in a time frame that didn't make us feel rushed but instead gave us time to relax, eat & enjoy ourselves, as well as check up on us just the right amount of times during our visit & finally, at the ending of our meal, presented our check still without making us feel we were being pushed out or rushed in any way. My recent visit to the Olive Garden has changed my opinions of the restaurant for the better. I would likely eat there again, especially if I was given another gift card but, although the food was somewhat better, maybe even significantly better, than I remembered it to be years ago, & the noise level in the restaurant was only a bit lower than I remembered it to be years ago, & the atmosphere of the restaurant was good but still lacking something, it was our server that raised the level of my recent Olive Garden experience and changed my opinions about it!

Annie was not our server, but she was amazing. She helped my friend and I pack up our food towards the end of our experience and helped us throughout before that with clearing dishes and asking us how our experience was! She is great!

Dined in solo on a Saturday night. I had about a 10-15 min wait. My waitress Drisa was amazing. My soup was delicious but my bread was a little over cooked. I also asked for my steak to be cooked medium rare and it was made well done.
