The food hear is always so fresh beyond belief the breadsticks are always so soft and fluffy, the salad is always so tasteful, the minestrone soup is always just fantastic, and not to mention the rigatoni with the four cheese marinara is just excellent we always come here for every occasion if it’s business or casual
Christine the manager was top notch she took care of us after a not so. Great experience previously she was very kind and gave us a special dinner which was fabulous our waitress was also very attentive it was a truly wonderful experience thankyou
Great service, fair portions, & good food. The food was fresh & delicious. I'm glad I came back & ordered food from here. I will be back soon.
Excellent service from Carissa thank you
AMAZING. Manager came over several times to check on us, and how everything was and the our waitress did the same. Best olive garden I’ve ever been to. Food was outstanding, breadsticks were extremely fresh and flavorful. Defiantly worth heading out to, and most likely the best Olive Garden In existence.
Great staff very patient with my 6 separate orders
**⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5-Star Review for Olive Garden in Centereach, Long Island – A Perfect Homecoming Dinner with Unmatched Service!**
After being away for a while, the **first place I wanted to take my wife and our 1½-year-old son** was **Olive Garden in Centereach**—and let me tell you, it was the **absolute best decision**! From the **warm welcome** to the **unbelievably delicious food** and **flawless service**, this location **exceeded every expectation** and reminded me why Olive Garden is a **beloved favorite**.
### **The Food? Absolutely Incredible – As Always!** 🍝🔥
Let’s be real—**it’s Olive Garden. You KNOW the food is going to be amazing!** My wife and I both ordered pasta dishes, and they were **cooked to perfection**—rich, flavorful, and exactly what we were craving. And can we talk about the **legendary breadsticks**?! **Warm, buttery, garlicky, and UNLIMITED**—need I say more? It’s one of the **many reasons** Olive Garden stands out. Even our little one enjoyed his **butter pasta** (though, as toddlers do, he decided the floor needed a taste too—more on that later!).
### **Service That Goes ABOVE AND BEYOND – Truly 1 of a Kind!** 👏❤️
The staff at this location **deserves a standing ovation**. From the moment we walked in, **someone was right there at the front** to greet us with a smile. Our waiter was **attentive, kind, and genuinely made sure we were enjoying our meal**—but in the **perfect way**. He checked on us **just enough** to ensure we had everything we needed **without being overbearing** (you know how some places hover too much? Not here!).
And then there was the **real test**—our **tiny tornado of a son** decided his mealtime mission was to **redistribute his butter pasta all over the floor**. Instead of giving us annoyed looks (which, let’s be honest, some places do), the staff **laughed in the sweetest way**—they thought he was adorable! When I started cleaning up (because, you know, **good parenting**), they **immediately reassured me**, *“No, it’s okay—we’ve got this!”* (I still helped, but the gesture alone meant **so much**). **That’s the kind of kindness and patience you RARELY find anymore.**
### **Family-Friendly, Welcoming, and Just an All-Around Amazing Experience** 👨👩👦💖
This Olive Garden **understands what hospitality is all about**. They made us feel **relaxed, welcomed, and valued**—even with a messy toddler in tow. The atmosphere was **warm and inviting**, the food was **consistently delicious**, and the service was **so good that other restaurants should take notes**.
### **Final Verdict: A Must-Visit – Perfect for Families, Dates, or Just Because!**
If you’re looking for a **fantastic meal** with **top-tier service** in a **family-friendly environment**, this **Olive Garden in Centereach is the place to go**. Whether it’s the **addictive breadsticks**, the **hearty pasta dishes**, or the **unmatched kindness of the staff**, everything about our visit was **exceptional**.
**I can’t recommend this location enough—thank you for making our first meal back so memorable! We’ll DEFINITELY be back soon!** 🍷🍝✨

Great service, food even though not fine Italian food still very tasty
Good night out
Absolutely amazing, always love my Olive Garden
OMG my best experience at an Olive Garden EVER!!! The service was EXCEPTIONAL!!! I just left but had to write a review before I got home. My waiter, William was beyond the best server I’ve ever had at any restaurant, very polite, great smile and excellent timing. He addressed our needs BEFORE we needed anything!! The manager, Christina was the best as well as she came by more than once to make sure we were having an overall great experience. Very friendly and personable. Just lovely!! On top of that the food tasted delicious. Hot and fresh! The greeter at the door was also very welcoming.. I didn’t get his name but he did contribute to the very favorable experience. Will definitely be returning and recommending!!! 5 stars.

Our server, David was amazing. He made sure we were happy. He treated us like we were the only ones there. He even asked me if I wanted the lunch or dinner size?? NO ONE EVER asked me that. I was very grateful. I hope he stays. 😊
My girlfriend and I went here last night for my 50th birthday and everything was excellent! We were quickly greeted and shown to a table (I had a birthday ribbon on my shirt so all the staff were saying happy birthday to me). Our server, Stephanie, was awesome! She was so friendly and pleasant. We didn't have to wait long for our drinks or food, she was very prompt and attentive. My girlfriend and I each ordered a cocktail (which were amazing!) and we ordered an appetizer and our entrees, which were also amazing! After our dinner, the waitstaff came out and surprised me with a piece of delicious cheesecake with a candle and sang happy birthday to me.
I was very happy with my choice to spend my birthday here and I will definitely be back!
Great place ..for a nice diner with the family
Everyone at this location was very friendly and helpful. Manager ( Nicole? ), came to our table and chatted for a few minutes. Her interactions with other employees was professional, respectful and kind.
The food was good and is very consistent. Clean.
This location gave me food poisoning. Don’t go here.
