I had an outstanding experience at Olive Garden thanks to our server, Evelyn. Her attention to detail was exceptional, and I can honestly say I’ve never had a waitress quite like her. She made sure we always had everything we needed drinks, refills, and to-go boxesbefore we even had to ask. Beyond her efficiency, her warm and upbeat personality truly elevated our visit. Out of all the times I’ve dined out, Evelyn has been the best server I’ve ever had. She genuinely goes above and beyond, and I believe she could teach others what exceptional service looks like. We were so impressed that we will forever request her before being seated. Even the guests at the table next to us were complimenting her service and talking about how wonderful she was. I also want to mention the hostess at the front a very kind, mature woman with blonde hair. I regret forgetting her name, but she greeted us with such warmth and made us feel welcome right away. The food was amazing as well hot, fresh, and perfectly timed. Overall, this was one of the best dining experiences I’ve had, and the staff truly made it great!

Pretty good experience overall. Can’t beat the breadsticks and soup/salad combo! Haven’t visited Olive Garden in years, but consistency was still here! We also had the lasagna, steak Gorgonzola pasta and mozzarella sticks.

December 2025- We had a party of ten. As the first one there, I let the hostess know what we needed as far as space/party size. She said to give her a few minutes. As the rest of the party came in, 20 minutes had passed. I approached the hostess to inquire and was told rather rudely that the whole party has to be present before they will seat us. This was not relayed when I checked in and was told “a few minutes” wait time. There was a manager that was present up front and also walking through the restaurant, but she never checked in with how things were going. Our servers Zade and Carlie were great and turned the not-so-great experience around. They took care of the big party nicely and promptly. The food was delicious! No complaints there. March 2025- I had the endless soup and salad. Katie was our server and was great. She provided lots of info about the various soups to help me decide. She provided wonderful service!

Stanley the bartender was awesome. The drinks were excellent and well made. His service was spectacular. The steak was cooked to perfection, they could have kept the brown sauce but overall the meal was delicious, along with great service.

Food was very tasty! Our server Zay was so nice he served us so nicely and gave us great customer service when we got bad news about my dads health Zay was very kind and made us feel like we had a safe space to be vulnerable. Highly recommended this waiter to anyone! Such a great person!!

Ok, on Sunday, and especially after those fanatics go to church, praise Jesus, and then immediately forget His teachings (and ANY semblance of forgiveness) the minute they hit the parking lot, this place gets CROWDED. And it’s a small miracle they are able to serve all those Karens all at once. And they complain about EVERYTHING! “My breadsticks are exactly 1 degree too cold. There aren’t enough tomatoes in my salad. My sweet tea isn’t sweet enough.” Jesus H. Christ! This is the Olive Garden, not Ruth’s Chris! So, AVOID ON SUNDAY AFTERNOONS if at all possible. Any other time, it’s fast, friendly, and perfect service. The food is consistently OG good. And that salad dressing - yum! Took advantage of the lunch special today and couldn’t be more pleased. Yes, I’ve been to Ruth’s Chris, Harry’s, Morton’s, Bottega, Bongiorni, and even REAL bougie Italian restaurants all over Rome and Venice, and Olive Garden is still my favorite out of them all.

Our server, Millie, was so sweet. She was quick with our food, anticipated our needs, and made our visit quick and pleasant. Her gentle spirit and kindness is rare these days! We will definitely be coming back here next time we are in town because of her!
