Oliver Garden has always been a pretty good stop for lunch and dinner parties. They take care of you and this Freehold location was no different. The manager was there greeting everyone in the dinning room and even made accommodation changes upon my request.Service was good even with our waiter having only been working there for a month. I will chalk that up to a good training program for the staff.As a chain Olive Garden maintains its roots in the Italian dinning experience where the staff is there for you and treats you to good food for friends and family alike.

As a loyal customer to this specific Olive Garden location for the past 5 years. I’m extremely disappointed in the way my husband and I were treated Friday night 2/23. We walked in to place a take out order. Alex took our order and when he repeated the order back to me, I said no one of the entrees is wrong. I want Fettuccine Alfredo, Not the Tortellini Alfredo. He said he fixed it and I was told it would be about 15 minutes. Perfect, we sat at the bar so we could order a drink while waiting and watched the basketball game that was on. After 30 minutes had passed and we saw some of the to go orders just sitting in the back and so I asked the front if I could have an update on my order. Within 5 minutes they brought out our order. Upon receiving the order it was still wrong and prepared with the wrong entree. This was a bit frustrating as we corrected the employee previously and have already waited 30 minutes when originally being told it would take 15. We then had to wait an additional 5-10 minutes for them to fix the order. One of the employees working the to- go order tickets called us over to pay as she explained to the manager what had happened. My husband asked the manager if the bill was fixed as we didn’t want to be charge for the wrong meal. Elizabeth Cahill the Manager said in an rude, aggressive and quite honestly disrespectful tone “Well you haven’t even paid yet, so how can you be charged wrong…”, My husband asked a simple question that we do not think deserved such a rude response to. We then mentioned to her we were told it was only going to be a 15 minute wait, which had now turned into 45-50 minutes. Her response was “Well there’s actually 8 orders ahead of you.” We understand there’s other orders, this is a restaurant. However telling someone it will be out in 15 minutes and then it actually takes 50 minutes does not leave customers happy. Then after paying she did not hand us a receipt but verbally confirmed that she handle it already. So there was no proof that the error was actually corrected.Her tone and attitude was rude and disrespectful, there was no responsibility or apology about the situation which left us appalled. The worst part was that we finally got home and ate the food and within an hour we were both sick and throwing up.We love Olive Garden however we will not be going back or supporting this location as long as this Manager is in charge. Also I do not recommend this location to anyone unless you want a side of attitude with your meal.

Disappointing that they lie about reservations, managers, and waiters are weird and unprofessional. They make you feel unwelcome. Rude and arrogant!

Christmas Eve and servers had great attitudes. I am very thankful they were working this night. We noticed not all customers were cordial but that didn't stop any servers from being great. And of course the place is clean, appropriately Italian in decor and the food perfect as usual. Tour of Italy and chicken tortellini Alfredo are excellent.Wheelchair accessibility: Handicap parking and one story easy entry

Jordyn is awesome. She is so sweet and her personality made our dining here really great. She constantly came and asked if we were okay or if we wanted more soup and bread. She was amazing.
