For starters one of the nicest Olive Gardens, I've been in even though it's new. The distance between tables and booths is above the average restaurant which is always nice. The server could have had some help they seemed very new and/or challenged. What part of coming back to the table and seeing empty glasses and having to ask for refills somebody should have seen as an issue? Is there not a lead server on duty eyeballing offer servers tables to make sure their doing well?...read full review
The Statesville NC Olive Garden just came out with the most beautiful menus. Easy to read categories and classy food pictures.
Ill be the first to admit Ive had some pretty hit or miss experiences at our local OG, but they were fantastic this time.

Olive Garden Italian Restaurant offers a traditional "American style Italian" cuisine in a clean and pleasant atmosphere. The staff is friendly and polite, though service can be slow at times due to understaffing. The restaurant is kid-friendly with a kid's menu and wheelchair accessible. Customers have consistently praised the cleanliness of the restaurant, the wonderful atmosphere, and the exceptional service from staff members. The menu features delicious breadsticks, salad, and perfectly cooked pasta dishes with generous portions.
The food is generally great, though some customers have reported issues with the quality and preparation of certain dishes, such as the chicken parmesan being fried hard around the edges and the steak being like a "hockey puck." The restaurant has also faced challenges with the availability of silverware, which has been a complaint from some guests. Additionally, there have been concerns about the transparency of charges, such as a $2.99 fee for using the kiosk games while waiting for the food.
Despite these occasional challenges, the restaurant's ambiance and the helpfulness of the staff, like server Mercedes, have been highlighted as positive aspects by customers. The use of the app for the call-ahead wait list has also been mentioned, though some guests have experienced issues with the process.
