Everything was excellent, I forgot my glasses and the next day I went to look for them, they were not there, they took care of them because there was a box full of glasses except mine

Our family goes to The Olive Garden from time to time. It's a place where everyone can find something that they enjoy, which is hard to pull off with 2 teenagers.

My other and I like to go to Olive Garden closer to where he lives in Sarasota. We decided not to cook this year for Easter and go out to eat, so we chose Olive Garden before he had to go to work overnight that night. They were, of course, busy, but we didn't have too much of a wait, maybe 20 minutes, as they took your number once greeted at the door for seating purposes. I used to remember getting our names called out, or they had the pagers that went off to let you know your table is ready back then. Nowadays, I guess everyone has a cell phone and uses your phone number to be seated now once the text went through. Anyhow, we asked to see if we could wait at the bar to at least order our drinks and was lucky to be served in a timely manner as busy as they were for Easter. Once seated when text came through, we sat a table near the bar and didn't have to move far. We got to keep the same waitress who was quick and new what she was doing. Once the order went through, the manager came out to some of the tables to explain the Meat Lasagna, which my other ordered was not ready yet and apologized for the delay and will comp our desserts for us. I ordered the Chicken Marcella Fettuccine, which was very rich and filled with lovely portions of mushrooms. Once we had our desserts ordered, we decided to take to go since we both were full, especially since we had the salad and breadsticks to start off. We always love coming to this location in Sarasota, Florida, so we will definitely be back. And they gave us our mints on the way out...those are always refreshing after dinner. I just wish our kind waitress at the bar could have gotten more help on a busy holiday weekend for a Sunday. Like she said, we all had some good entertainment that night, a dinner and a show!
