★★★★★ 5.0 Sachin Rayal · Mar 2026

The food was really good overall. The bread served with the Alfredo sauce was the highlight and full of flavor, and the marinara with a five-cheese blend was also very good. The pasta with Alfredo sauce tasted great, and the shrimp was cooked well and very flavorful. The shrimp starter with bell peppers was delicious and crispy. The cocktails and sangria were refreshing and well made. The shrimp and chicken carbonara with white sauce was good, and the fettuccine Alfredo with broccoli was excellent. Dessert was also good and a nice way to finish the meal. The tiramisu was one of the best I’ve ever had. Overall, everything tasted great and the food quality was very good, although the dishes were quite rich and creamy , so it was hard to eat more.

Greeted from the start. Short wait due to servers coming in stag. Waitress greeted us. Ordered appetizers mozzarella sticks and spinach dip. Tasted good. Then we ordered salad, egg plant, chicken parm, chicken alfredo. The food taste was nice. The only thing I would suggest might be staff procedures. Another waitress started to serve our food and our waitress said she had it. But didn’t have something to serve our food off the tray. Then she asked a waiter going by for one and the other staff member threw it and she dropped it. When our waitress attempted to serve with it I told her not to use the dirty one. Then she asked another member of my family for their personal napkin to serve the rest of the dishes. Later while eating the waitress cleared my mom’s food while she was still eating.

Had Dinner here as a firstie 2 nights ago. They were packed busy, the food was great, service was on point, & the wait surprisingly wasn't ridiculous! I loved seeing the hostess at the front who sat us, was a young man in a wheelchair 🥹 Of course, I don't wish that on anyone but it was very humbling to see that not only was he working that they gave him a chance & a job! That was honesty the most memorable part of my experience. The fried shrimp appetizer & calamari were both delicious, like to die for! Prestige. Our server was very knowledgeable & gave us great recommendations. Loved it. The endless bread sticks with dipping sauce is a MUST have, literally melt in your mouth. Worked very well for the soft diet I was looking for due to recovering from dental work! Very nice dinner, atmosph

I dined at Olive Garden on February 13, 2026, and unfortunately had a very concerning experience. I ordered the chicken and shrimp carbonara along with the Toscana soup. After only about five or six bites, I became extremely ill. Almost immediately, I began vomiting repeatedly to the point where there was nothing left in my stomach. I was unable to even keep down water, and I also experienced diarrhea throughout the entire night. It was a very uncomfortable and concerning situation. The following morning, I called the restaurant and asked to speak with the general manager. I was told she was unavailable, and I spoke with someone who identified herself as a manager. I explained what happened and that I believed I had gotten food poisoning from my meal. I was offered a gift card, which I dec

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Barbara Davis · Mar 2026

Have always enjoyed Olive Garden. Tonight our food was not like what we usually are use to. The Chicken Gnocchi soup was so watery and lacking flavor and not much else. I had what was suppose to be the Grilled Stuffed Chicken Marsala . The chicken was not grilled and tough and the stuffing was not very good, the marsala sauce was good just not enough of it. My husband had the new beef and tortellini with marsala sauce. The beef was very good the tortellini not so much. Hope the food is better next time. We had excellent service even though they were very busy and did not seem to adequate servers. People had to wait to be seated yet there were a lot of empty tables.
