Order two dinners and (5) sides including 2 orders of mashed potatoes. Basically $80 worth of food and the mashed potatoes sides were literally a spoonful.
I'm going to bring my receipt back tomorrow and get my money back for all the sides.
It will not let me add a photo Of the mashed potato sides So small unbelievable

I hosted an event there with about 30 ladies. The staff and management went above and beyond to make sure our night went off with out a hitch. Tyler and his co-worker made sure all of the ladies had fresh bread and salad and accommodated all of our needs. Food came out fast and delicious. We can't thank this establishment enough for their hospitality and service.

We liked the olive garden in Estero. Food, ambience and service are all good!
We prefer this restaurant over the ones in Naples and Fort Myers

Went to eat here with a party of 7 - One plate came out with a hair in it so we sent it back. The manager brought out the second plate and the chicken was completely raw. This meal was for a pregnant woman and her toddler. The manager was very nice and apologetic, took our meals off and gave a discount. We hardly saw our server and the manager is the one who kept cleaning our table and refilling drinks. Don’t think we will be back to this location.

I went to this restaurant for the first time in years feeling a little nostalgic, but I wish I hadn’t. I would never recommend this place after what I witnessed.

A couple was allowed to bring their personal pets inside the restaurant. The dogs were barking while other guests were trying to eat, and then I watched them feed the dogs noodles directly from their plates. They were also wiping dog slobber with the restaurant napkins and letting the dogs on the furniture and near shared surfaces. It was absolutely disgusting.

When I mentioned it to our server, he laughed it off like it was totally normal. It is not normal and it is not okay. According to Olive Garden’s own policy, non-service animals are supposed to remain outside, but clearly nobody there cares to follow their own rules or basic sanitation.

The food itself was subpar at best. The entire experience was uncomfortable and gross knowing that pets were being treated like guests while real paying customers were ignored when real concerns were voiced.

The margarita was decent, but that is literally the only positive I can say.

I will never eat here again.

I will never return to this Olive Garden!

The waiter was an absolute joke from the beginning, i don’t come from fine dining but having to eat ur meal with nothing to drink after asking 3 times is pathetic, horrible service and I will never in my life be back.
