Bon Appetito!
My son, being only a whole seven years old, recently treated me to Olive Garden for a birthdate together. He won a Darden gift card at our family reunion and said he couldn’t wait to treat me.
We went later in the evening, so it wasn’t nearly as crowded which made it quiet and a nice time for conversation. I ordered the Angel Hair Pasta with meat sauce while he went with the chicken fingers and fries. So nice to have both options on the menu for those who are not as much of a pasta fan (kids) and those who very much are. I had a free dessert coupon for my birthday so we enjoyed the Italian donuts with a side of chocolate sauce and jam.
He loved that the menu had fun games on the back, and we battled each other at tic-tac-toe in between courses.
The server was amazing being on the ball with collecting plates, bringing out fresh breadsticks, filling drinks, etc…. so nice when you come across a member of the wait staff who is pleasant.
Bar area has lots of great drinks; cocktails, wines, beer. Can be enjoyed at your regular table as well.
Vegetarian, vegan and healthy options available on the menu.
Great coffee, tea, cocktails and desserts.
The restaurant was clean and really gave off a nice vibe. We came in during the day, which gave us a glance of the beautiful flowers around the landscaping. When we left, it was nighttime, and the outside of the restaurant looked beautiful the way the light was shining off of the stone on the building.
A lovely experience and will definitely be back!
Lunch, dinner, dessert, and catering available. Delivery, takeout, dine in and curbside pick up. Also, no contact delivery. Credit and debit cards accepted.
Wheelchair, accessible parking, entrance, seating, and restrooms.
Good for kids with a kids menu, which includes a sheet of games on the back, high chairs, and a changing station in the restroom.
Restrooms were clean and offered toilet seat covers and an infant...
Read moreMy husband and I went today for his birthday around 1:00pm. I called ahead and spoke with someone about it being his birthday. When we arrived I told the hostess and she showed us to a table in the bar area. The waitress came out and was not very friendly which we both noticed first off. She took our order and we got our salad and soup maybe 10 minutes later. After awhile I asked for breadsticks. She brings those out. She came back awhile later and removed the salad bowl and never asked if another soup was wanted so we sat and waited for our food. Finally at 2:10 I looked at my watch and called her over as she was walking by and asked about our food. She flips out her pad and says what did you order again someone pumped your food off. I don’t explained it was my husbands birthday and we were having family over for cake . She said she would put a rush now on the order. She brings it out 10 minutes later and my shrimp and scallops were just warm. She came over and asked how it was and I tell her and she says can I get you free dessert. By this time I’m upset. No we don’t want dessert when we will be having cake later. She brings the bill and I tell her we won’t be back for awhile when I called and even told the hostess it was his birthday. Very bad experience. My husband was nice because he left her a tip. I wouldn’t have...
Read moreWe arrived around 8:45 and were promptly seated. No sooner had we sat down than the waitress was there to take our order. We told her we needed few minutes to look at the menu. When she came back we ordered our entrees. We were then brought a small bowl of salad. ( I have eaten at Olive Garden alone and got more salad than was for the two of us). The waitress asked us after we had finished our first plate of salad if we wanted seconds. We replied, yes, please. No sooner had we served ourselves the second plate of salads - our entrees were brought out to us. I just feel as though the waitress should keep a better eye on her customers and plan accordingly. Her timing was terrible. My partner moved her salad plate to the side in order to have her entree put in front of her. I chose to finish my salad before starting my entree. By the time I got around to it, it was barely warm. She then brought us the check before we were finished eating. I realize that we were a bit on the late side for coming to the restaurant, but if that were the case, we should have been forewarned. There was a party of 8 nearby who ordered coffee as we were leaving. Also another couple was seated only 10 minutes before we left. All in all - a very unpleasant dining experience.
