The food here is delicious, but they always get rid of my favorite. It's never on the menu the next time I go. I guess that is a good thing cuz it forces me to try something new. Love the atmosphere of this restaurant. Always friendly and clean.

This restaurant has absolutely the BEST salad and warm garlic breadsticks. the salad is all you can eat and sprinkled with grated cheese if you wish (right in front of you) they even sell the salad dressing so you can attempt the taste at home. Awesome food, great customer service, and wonderful atmosphere make this restaurant my favorite.

Although I try to dine at off hours, Olive Garden in Central Park is worth the wait. I've tried many food entrees, and all have been deliicious. Service is superb, we've always had an excellent waiter or waitress. We don't drink wine, but they do have a wide selection. Desserts are awesome, portions for all meals are huge, we usuallly have to take some home. My favorite is the bottomless salad and their wonderful garlic bread. Nice atmosphere, especially in the evening. A nice place to take a date.

Wonderful family restaurant at affordable prices. I have never left disapointed. To start they have a delicious never ending salad and breadsticks. An extensive wine list. Great menu selection. My favorite is the cheese ravioli, and I order it with alfredo sauce. Huge portions are offered so come hungry! This is often a busy spot around dinner time, so come early or late.
