Ok my review was done a year ago!! I had them @ 4 stars! Now I went to five!! This is my favorite location hands down!! THEYVE ALWAYS BEEN CONSISTENT!!! The cook was awesome, and she smelled soooo good!!! Justin was freaking awesome and so willing to do whatever to make my experience great!!!!! Dwight was a sweetheart and very attentive!!!! Bless his heart!! ❤️ and ERIN who made that sweet tea, OMG!!!!!!! THIS IS THE BEST SWEET TEA IVE EVER HAD A A RESTAURANT HANDS DOWN!!!!! Like I didn’t have to touch the tea!! If I could’ve bought a gallon I would’ve! I swear!! I mean that tea was AMAZING!! 🤩 5 STAR 💫around the board!!

Ok so this might be my favorite location! I got Laura again today!! Man!! This chick is freaking awesome!! TWICE she’s made my experience SUPERB!! She allows me to enjoy my salad, she never let my drink run out, she didn’t stack my food on my top of my salad 🥗 & HER FREAKING PERSONALITY IS LIFE!!! Request her when you go in this location and watch you too have a bomb experience!!

Went today 3/11/2023 and it was amazing!! Diana was super awesome!! Request her!!

Anahi was a great server!! She’s very bubbly and personable! Did her best to accommodate my request! Really good service today!

Spicy chicken Alfredo was awesome!! Salad was great! Sweet tea was good, I don’t like the pitcher ice tea just bring fresh tea because the pitcher is so watered down it ruins the drink! Bread was decent! Only complaint I have is that my silverware was dirty! But they quickly brought me new silverware! So taking the time out to make sure we have clean dishes would be nice! Only reason they got a 4 star and not a 5! But I will frequent them again and I will update my review! But overall...

Never bringing my business here again. I never had an issue always good service great food ofcourse, but curbside service is a whole other show. We do alot family gatherings or been having special occasions so olive garden is one of our go to easy curbside pick up and go right....well wrong! I've done curbside maybe 5 times here and the last 3 experiences have not been great. 1st time i waited almost an hour and staff just didn't have the best attitude that day. 2nd time i had a huge order and they forgot my dessert i mean oh well we don't live close by and well no dessert that day. My last and i mean my last time my brother picked it up and well after checking they gave him the wrong order! My brothers fault for not checking too will admit. My brother was home and had to go back to get the right order. Ofcourse everything was cold and sure i heard an im sorry from the manager Michelle but you know maybe a free dessert or something for messing up and making us take 2 trips would of been nice but no. Then the order gets home, its a big order, and my half gallon soup is missing like seriously??? Not to mention it asks you if you need plates, silverware, cups etc so yeah sure we need it but ofcourse we got nothing but a big spoon for the soup that they forgot to put in our bag. I called spoke to the manager Michelle and definitely said I wanted my money back for that soup. Not taking a 3rd trip back! So yeah not going back. Unpleasant experiences can happen anytime anywhere but after 3 times thats it. I will be taking my big...

I went after 2:00 pm to not be there at lunch time. It was not that many people and food took a while it seemed they had our waitress doing something else as she was not very attentive. Right before we were about to pay She said her bosses were there that's why she was not attending us correctly. I never asked her why she was not attending us, but I know she felt the need to say that because she did not come around as she should have. She even had to get another waitress to come and serve us. When I asked for water with lemon or lime. She didn't have a lemon or lime. I had to ask a few times for the lemon. Then she came back with a small plate of lemons. The food was good, the Toscana soup was a little cold though. If you like croutons you will love their salad. I on the other hand don't like many croutons or red cabbage but I feel like they had more red cabbage than anything else and a very little amount of banana peppers. The second waitress said that is all they had when I asked if I could get more banana peppers. It was ok, but I have been to other Olive Gardens and I have had better service. Olive garden is one of my favorite franchises, so I'm a little disappointed with the way things went but I will give it a 3 star just because I enjoy eating at Olive...
