Too slow Feb 14th, 2005
I like the Olive Garden's food. The breadsicks and salad are 'to die for' which keeps me coming back. But I swear, every single time I go there, and it doesn't matter what time of the day - for dinner or lunch, or even if I let them know I'm in a hurry, it takes FOREVER. Not just the food, but getting the check, etc. There has to be a faster way to trot out a salad bowl and a hot baset of breadsticks to keep the customer happy for a while.

Good Times!! Jul 29th, 2004
Well I was just sitting here reading everyone's responses and I thought that as a worker at this Olive Garden, I want to be heard. For those complaining about the authenticity...your not in Italy. For the great low prices, I think the food is wonderful. Our recipies are sent to us from Italy...but hey, if you want us to ship everything directly from Italy, your gonna pay for it. As for the woman feeling that she wanted to "step to the manager, and stand up for her daughter," if I came up to you at your job and got an attitude and tried to justify my thoughts, you would do the same. There is no reason to make a scene, get over it, be an adult and write headquarters. That way you get justice, not embarassed. And lastly, when i stand at the door, I say goodbye to literally hundreds of people each night, and I maybe get one or two complants a night. That adds up to a LOT of happy customers

AVOID THIS RESTAURANT AT ALL COSTS!! Oct 1st, 2003
On Monday, Spetember 29, 2003 my date and I had what passed as dinner at this restaurant. We sat for 20 minutes before being seated even though there were empty tables. We placed our orders and waited. I ordered a custom made pizza and agreed to pay the additional charge so I could share the salad with my date. While we waited an interminably long time (20-25 minutes) for our entrees we had to ask for more salad and breadsticks and had to ask another waitress passing by to grate some cheese onto the salad for us. (Our waitress had forgotten her grater and never reappeared with it.) Our water, wine, and iced tea glasses were never replenished nor was the offer to do so made. My date's entree arrived a full 18 minutes ahead of mine. I was very surprised to see the waitress show up with one entree so I kept track of the time. By the time my entree was served he was finished with his. I ordered the custom made pizza and it arrived with the wrong toppings. I was too hungry to care and ate it. We ordered a dessert to split. The tiramisu arrived frozen and without additional silverware to eat it, even though 2 forks were promised. The only thing that arrived in a timely manner and complete and accurate was the bill. No adjustments were made for the poor service. While the entrees were quite good the service was lousy! I will not be going back, ever! Whoever runs this place and allows these gross errors in basic restaurant service should probably be replac

I truely love this restaurant. I think that the atmosphere is pleasent and the food is great. However, the takeout service is not good at all. The food is usually dry and not worth the money you spend on it.

Great Restaurant Apr 22nd, 2003
I am from colorado. The Olive Garden that I went to with my friend was the best experience I have had. Our waiter was very polite and attentive. When I go there always have the Chicken Marsala and Taramasui for dessert. The price was just right for the two of us and I will go back again.

pseudo-italian food Mar 27th, 2003
Olive garden is good food at a good price but ONLY for people who are starting to taste Italian food. No way would I would agree it is Italian after going to speciality authentic Italian resturants.
