On 11/30/25 at 03:30 4 of us attempted to try the Olive Garden in Brooksville for a 2nd time. The 1st time we waited for 30 minutes to get cold low-quality food and service. Today 4 of us tried to give them a 2nd chance. As we walked up to the entrance a female appeared to be leaving held open the door. As I looked back, I noticed she had a computer tablet and worked for Olive Garden. Her demeaner was as if she didn’t want to be there, not a smile or welcome she said nothing. As we went in a young female who appeared to be the hostess who did smile and asked how many escorted us to a table close to the entrance. Before we sat down, I asked her if we could sit in a booth as we have a 5-year-old with us. The female who was seating us asked the poor attitude female that held the door open with the tablet if we could have a booth and she lied and said “no, we have no booths available”. She never looked at the tablet to check. We sat at a table close to the entrance which was seen by numerous Olive Garden staff walking past us, even the hostess seating other customers. Over 7 minutes go by sitting watching Olive Garden Staff walk past us with no one noticed us not having drinks. The restaurant was not busy, all the tables around us were empty and as you can see in the photo out of 9 booths in one area 6 were empty. At this point being lied to by the miserable female holding the door open and not getting any service we decided to leave and not risk the bad food as we already received poor service. I took my phone to a female manager and showed her the stopwatch was at 7 plus minutes with no service which I started timing after 3 minutes. I told the manager about no service and the poor attitude of the female holding the door and how she lied about no available booths. Like another review stated New Port Richey Olive Garden is better.

One of my favorite places to eat at. Service is amazing and the servers are very attentive to one's need and it shows. When we go there if possible we always ask for Axle. Such a sweet humbled person! Thank you Olive Garden for a wonderful dinner that allows us to continue coming back!

Good service. Food overcooked. Need to improve the silverware rinse. Came to table all spotty and looked like it was dirty. Not just mine but also my wife's.

Typical Olive Garden. Nothing special or unique about it.
Our server was nice enough, but she neglected our special order.
Very disappointed that they don't have CEASER SALAD. Plus it's a shared salad deal, which we don't care for.
The Lasagna was tasty, and portion was good.

We will probably come back in a year or so.

I have been to this location twice and both times I said I wouldn't be back due to the service, but yesterday we decided to see if third time was a charm.
We went to celebrate my husband's birthday. Our server was Jordan. He was wonderful! He was attentive without being hovering, he was super fun and he got all our orders correct and out in a respectable time. He truly made us enjoy our experience and because of him, we will return.
