Took daughter and grandbaby haven't been to olive garden for while wasn't what it use to be. After sending her steak back twice and mine three times never cooked either of them right. They took one off bill should have taken both off ! Both of us ended up with upset stomachs definitely was not happy! Only thing that was good was server. She was very nice. On top of all that pricing has went up at least 30 percent.

The food is ok. Last time we were here the bathroom was absolutely gross. Hair all over the floor. So dimly lit that you cannot see the filth. I will not come back just based on the disgusting bathrooms.

Solid Olive Garden location. Our server Sharif was great! Everything was very good and we had a good experience.

Visited Olive Garden Fairview Heights today (Mother's Day). I was very pleasantly surprised. We ordered the usual soup and salad, which are always very good. We also got the fried Calamari and the Shrimp Fritto Misto appetizers, along with our Entree's. But I want to talk about the Calamari and Shrimp appetizers. They were exceptional, both the Calamari and Shrimp were cooked perfectly. From my past experiences of working in various kitchen as a young man, I learned that It's a very delicate balance between cooking calamari and shrimp hard and chewy, or tender and succulent. Today I'm happy to say, both dishes were Tender, juicy and succulent.

Job well done.

I’ve been to many olive gardens and typically have a good experience. This location was disappointing. Hot plates for salad, side orders not served, overcooked chicken, undercooked asparagus. Coincidentally we all got diarrhea after eating here. $140 for 3 people for not great dinner. I wish I’d gone to Dennys, the spaghetti sauce sucked at this Olive Garden.

So I’ll just take you from the top of our experience.
When we first arrived we were immediately sat down. We were one of the only people in the restaurant and we were sat around the corner from the bar. We sat down and waited about 20 minuets until someone came over after realizing they had a table. From there we ordered an appetizer and drinks. The drinks came out after a little bit and the soup salad and bread sticks were great. My fiancés wine however had little pieces of cork in it. Unfortunately our appetizer never came out. When our food arrived I ordered the chicken Alfredo with fried chicken. They brought me grilled chicken tortellini Alfredo. They brought this out and did not bring my fiancés steak for another 20 minuets. When the steak did come out it was ordered medium and was definitely well done. When they came to the table they apologized about the wait (we did not say anything about temp of steak)and said that they took 25% off our check to make up for the inconvenience. We were pretty happy that they were making up for it but they also didn’t come around to the table except for dropping off the food. After finding the server to ask for the check I noticed that the appetizer we ordered was on the check. When I asked for this to be removed they took off the 25% discount and our bill actually went up. A few other things to note is that they turned away a party of 10 at about 9:15 (45 minuets before close) and I heard servers loudly arguing and using profanity with the manager about how they arnt taking a 10 top this late. Another thing was that when we were sat in our section our table was the ONLY table that didn’t have dishes on it from previous parties. They also turned the lights on around 9:30 (not a huge deal) but for sure changed the atmosphere. We arrived at around 8:30-8:35 and didn’t leave until right before close at 10 because service was so slow. 0/10 just a bad experience. Usually have to have 3 strikes for me to write a poor review but the soup and bread sticks was the only thing that was right about our expertise at Olive Garden. Please avoid this location and go to the Edwardsville location to get you Olive Garden fix.

Our server Linda was outstanding! We did not want for anything at all, from the drinks, to the entrée, we didn't have to ask for nothing, she was on it! This restaurant is my regular spot, and they continue to impress. Our food was excellent, chilled salad(bowls were chilled as well), fresh breadsticks and entrée was hot. Again, thank you Linda for your excellent service!!!!!!!!!🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
