Olive Garden Italian Restaurant

The food was fantastic, but the service was incredibly slow and we were forgotten about a few times, but I still must give a four star because the product quality was good and our server was a sweetheart.

My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful Christmas dinner at Olive Garden in Aiken, South Carolina, and it could not have been a better experience. From the moment we were seated, our server, Lauren, made us feel welcome and well cared for. She was friendly, attentive, and very helpful in guiding us through the menu and making sure our selections were just right. We both ordered the spaghetti with salad, and everything arrived hot, fresh, and absolutely delicious. The flavors were spot-on and exactly what we were hoping for on a holiday evening. Throughout the meal, Lauren checked in at just the right times, making sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed. This was truly a memorable Christmas dinner, and one we will happily look back on. Thank you, Lauren, for helping make o

Went to the new Olive Garden in Aiken, SC yesterday. It was wonderful! The food was delicious and the service was excellent! Our waitress went over and above to make our lunch special. The place is beautiful and immaculate just like you would expect an Olive Garden to be.

This is a very good Olive garden. My husband loves their soup salad and breadsticks, and I always order the light appetite spaghetti with two meatballs. But the meatballs are so big I can't even eat both of them! I am not as big a fan of their salad because they put too much dressing on it, and their breadsticks are just okay. It's not that this Olive garden has just okay breadsticks, it happens at every Olive garden I go to. But the service here was very good, very quick, and we were seated right away.

This Olive Garden has gotten very stingy with the food. My husband and myself usually always order the dinner size spaghetti with meat sauce. We have always received a nice size portion. We ordered it today and what we received was what looked like the lunch size portion in the big dinner bowl. The little amount of spaghetti and meat sauce we received looked ridiculous and cheap in the big dinner bowl. We asked for the kitchen manager. He told us they were told to cut back on the portion size. So they are charging you the same price and cutting back on portion size. That doesn't work for us. We left feeling very disappointed. I'm Italian and I'll cook it myself from now on. Olive Garden can take a hike!
