Wouldn’t recommend coming here if you have a baby apparently they are a safety hazard and will pretty much tell you to go elsewhere this is the 3rd time it’s happened…

We literally saw our server when she took our order and when she brought our food. I was talking loudly enough another server heard me and I'm assuming wouldn't let our server know that we were ready to go. There was literally so much wrong. Are ravioli was too hard there was no dressing on my salad and the amount of trash that was outside the front of this building was ridiculous come on Olive Garden step it up.

Was a little wait, But it was to be expected. A nice day, on a Friday afternoon. waiter was nice kind friendly and very knowledgeable. Very sociable, but not in unprofessional mano. Understanding that he was working to be working. Not like so many younger people today.

Obviously a busy place to be on Valentine’s Day. My review is based solely on the seating policies. While they “don’t take reservations”, they do take “call aheads”. When I asked how this works, after waiting for 45 minutes when we were told no longer than twenty, it was explained to me that every time a “call ahead” check-ins, you get moved down the list. We arrived at 5:30, and now have been waiting for an hour. A gentlemen sitting next to us figured out a way to beat the line, after also waiting for an hour. He called (whilst sitting in the lobby) to do a “call ahead”, checked, sat down, and was called 5 minutes later.

I am extremely disappointed with the staff at this restaurant. I had a lost item that I left at the restaurant. I called in and talked to a manager, who said they had nothing turned in. I ended up going back into the store continuing to ask them if they had seen anything. The host stand all stated that they hadn't seen the item turned in and didn't seem like they cared, they didn't even check the lost and found. I asked to talk to my server to ask if they had seen my lost item. The server never came. Thankfully someone from the back came up after waiting for so long and heard someone mention the purse and opened the lost and found and I got my item finally back. Will not be going back, I don't know what you call this lazy or underlying reason for not checking the lost and found of my lost item, I am not sure.

I love me some Olive Garden!!! Food is always delicious. Our family always orders our own individual Alfredo bowls to dip our bread sticks in- try it, you will not regret it. I usually order the fettuccine Alfredo and chicken gnocchi soup. Yum! Very friendly and accommodating staff. Clean restaurant and restrooms. Parking lot is always packed so try to go early. Can't wait to go back.

What can I say. It's an olive garden. I think I'm addicted to the breadsticks and their salad.

I love their cheese ravioli with marinara sauce. It's my go-to comfort food place.

And it's great that you can order $6 add-on meals to go. So I get to have two or three meals at home after just eating there one time.

Ordered the grilled salmon with broccoli and it was excellent. Came with a large portion of salad and breadsticks. Turnaround time on the order was very quick and the service was good too. Quiet restaurant
