Olive Garden is a family of local restaurants focused on delighting every guest with a genuine Italian dining experience. We are proud to serve fresh, simple, delicious Italian food, complemented by a great glass of wine, served in a comfortable, home-like Italian setting where everyone is welcomed as family and friends. Olive Garden's menu features a variety of Italian specialties, including classic and filled pastas, chicken, seafood and beef. Enjoy our freshly baked garlic breadsticks and your choice of homemade soup or garden-fresh salad with any entree. All menu items are available for take-out, and our Parties To Go! menu offers generous family-sized meals for your next family gathering or office party.

In Short
Established in 1982, this chain gained a following for its laid-back atmosphere and generous portions. Patrons settle into comfortable booths and tables in dining rooms with plants, artwork and décor reminiscient of the villas in the Tuscan countryside. Starters include scampi, sausage or pepperoni pizza, and several soup choices, as well as a signature seafood dip (crab, shrimp, cheese and marinara). Entrees include classics like lasagna, fettuccine Alfredo and chicken parmigiana. There are also "Garden Fare" options, which promise 30 percent fewer calories.

Key Points

  • Fresh, delicious Italian food
  • Variety of wine and beverages
  • To Go ordering available

Reviews for Olive Garden

Ratings_icons Olive Garden has Great Food & Service!

Andrea G. | insider Insider | Rank: 17,597

The Olive Garden in the Sports Arena area is conveniently located. The food is very appetizing, has great flavor, and is reasonably priced. The wait at times can be long, but that is expected for a liked restaurant. The service is outstanding and I couldnt ask for more while dining out.

The Olive Garden is convenient to our home but that is not why we go there often. We like the food and the ambiance and the great service we get from friendly waiters. If you like Italian food this is your place!

I watch the ad on tv all the time, unlimited soup salad and breadsticks for only 6.95$ Well finally I went down their to see if it really lived up to the bargain it seemed to portray. The people were friendly, the food was excellent and the servers even refilled our food whenever we wanted. I was really pleased at the exceptionaly quality of the restaraunt. I payed 14$ for 2 people and thats a bargain to me!
