12-3-25. Update.
Went back, it's an hour before closing, was greeted very kindly. What a nice young lady tonights hostess is. Our server Tabatha... you are AMAZING! You are 100% our go to when we return. What a fantastic lady. Food came hot and tasty too. 😁

Was hoping for a nice dinner out. Came in and was greeted by a woman taking names and typing on a notebook. Asked us how many and a name for us. Couldn't / wouldn't look up at all. Not a nice greeting. Then we were met with a strange smell in the lobby. Can't figure it out, what it could be. Maybe just a combination of things from the kitchen. Then they called our name and wanted to put us at a high top in the bar. We said we'd wait for a table in the restaurant. Truly not busy enough to require that. They sat us at Amber J's table and she was really great!! Awesome service. The food was good and we went home full.

I used to love Olive Garden but it just wasn't the same. The waitress barely took care of us. She gave us the wrong drinks. The chicken gnocchi soup seemed off. Won't waste my time or money in this place again.

I had to give my food 1 star, because I never even recieved it. This is the second time we have visited this location and the previous time my husband didn't recieve his meal. Even after asking for the meal to be brought out it was not received. After that we had to ask to have the meal removed from the bill. The served ask why... and then I had to uncomfortably explain AGAIN never got my food

Very disappointing. It took almost 10 minutes to be greeted by our server. My boyfriend’s steak was supposed to be medium but was over cooked both times. Overall, just not good

I have never had a problem with this Olive Garden. Yes, it is a chain restaurant but the food and service for me has always been exceptional. I rarely take my phone inside so sadly, I have no pictures to post. I had the chicken parm. The portions were great and it was cooked perfect. I love that fresh grated cheese is added. I love the unlimited bread sticks.

One of the things that Darden does is that they honor veterans every November 11th with a free meal at ALL of their restaurants. I am a veteran and I greatly appreciate that they remember us. They don't have to do this, but every single year, they do. I salute them for that. Too often, people lose sight of the fact that every single day, veterans put their life on the line for their country. We lose service members every single day to hostile actions and from training. Nearly every day, a veteran takes their own life. Again, thank you Olive Garden and Darden Restaurants for honoring all veterans.

Greeted w/lipstick stain mug, multiple people came by,but technically male server. Due to allergy we asked for no onions. My daughter repeated order & it was repeated back. Came wrong. Our breadsticks came after we been eating. We watched 3 tables get theirs before ours. So when asked... we came in since online said unless pasta was still happening. Nope.

Honestly there's nothing I can ever say bad about this place every time I come here the food is amazing I absolutely love Olive garden I come here with my children my boyfriend of came here with a friend for my birthday! Most recently we came here for veterans Day and I believe our server's name was Camilla I am so bad with names I'm so sorry if that's wrong she had a red bow in her hair with red lipstick on that day! She was so pretty. It was super busy because of veterans day. She was very attentive sweet and informative! I always get the same thing because it's always so good which is the chicken alfredo with grilled chicken period and my boyfriend got the chicken parmesan from the veterans menu.

Two wonderful servers took care of me in my entire family of eight people. They were amazing and kept everybody happy the entire time. The food was delicious, as usual. Thank you so much.
