Omg…my friend was there before me with her 2 yr old twins. No server acknowledged them at all for 15 min before I got there... with my 4 yr old. Then I had to ask the manager if we even had a server. She then had like 3 different servers bring us drinks.Not the correct drinks btw. Then at least 2 more times we had to ask other servers if someone could help us. Once we finallyfound out who our server was she was slightly more attentive. It was a pretty terrible experience to have everyone around usserved quickly and attentively and we were ignored unless we asked for someone. Read more

My Chicken Scampi had so much minced garlic in it that it burned my tongue. I had the waitress take it back. She was a gracious... waitress and had it taken off our bill. Other than the food, we enjoyed our evening. The raspberry lemonade was outstanding andour waitress kept my glass filled. Read more

Warning - LONG ... but very happy review. I don't write reviews, but I had to share this. My Son and his Fiance married this... past weekend. They did not want the usual Southern Maryland wedding menu (greasy, fried with taters & slaw on the side) Theyboth LOVE the Olive Garden and mentioned they'd really like it at their reception. We didn't even know if they did that sort ofthing, but we inquired. Mikayla (sorry if spelled wrong) the manager, said they did and that they had recently pulled off a verysuccessful event MUCH larger than ours ! They are trained in delivery and food set up and even supply the chaffing dishes andserving utensils. We were sold ! - both impressed & confident in their service. After a few very helpful and pleasant phoneconversations with her & Brittany our catering order was completed and they even approved a few special requests we had ! Themorning of, Brittany called me to go over everything one last time and let me know she would be involved in the set up herself.I was very excited ! She and 2 very nice young men (I'm sorry I dont remember your names) showed up on time, fully prepared andhad everything set up quickly and without disruption to the reception, which had already begun. My only regret is I did not takea picture of the final buffet set up to share. It was perfectly arranged and looked delish! I believe everyone enjoyed theofferings and uniqueness of the wedding reception fair. Sorry that was so long, but I am just so impressed and thankful for theperfectly coordinated, delicious, abundant & super affordable catering the California, MD Olive Garden provided for my Son & newDaughter in law's event !!!! Thank you to everyone that helped make it special !!! P.S. before the wedding, they also set asidea wonderful area for the bridal shower & provided great service & food for that as well. I was not directly involved in thatportion of planning, but it was a seemless & beautiful event and they even gave the Bride a speci Read more

The food were great. First, my mom and I got the Spinach and Artichoke Dip as our appetizer which were very delicious and... flavorful. The pita chip were crispy on the outside and spicy on the inside. I would totally recommend people should try it. Thespinach flavor was not as strong as most other places. Read more

The food was very good, the waitress was strange. She only addressed my + 1 and she she brought our food out on top of each... course ...so while we ate our app which was super delicious Shrimp Frito, then she brought the salad and before I could take abite of my salad here comes my entree. Not sure if they wanted us out fast but, had our server paced herself, we would have hadanother drink and I really wanted to try 2 desserts! I had a strawberry Bellini and that was absolutely amazing! Simply Pressecoand strawberry juice with 1 giant ripe strawberry. If you ever drink bubley with strawberries, OMG, the strawberry taste isHeavenly. I ordered the seafood pasta and my +1 ordered The taste of Italy, it had 3 types of pasta, and it really looked oldand unappealing, as if it had been sitting or cooked a while ago. My seafood pasta cooked to a perfection. We had so much foodwe had to wrap it up and when I reheated my pasta it was just ok. Read more
