Reviews for Olive Garden Italian Restaurant in Clackamas, OR

The soups aren’t the best quality or tasting and the salads are extremely mediocre. The bread tastes like it was made hours... ago today. The service is great but the food quality has gone down. I will only come here if a friend invites me otherwise Iwon’t make it a point. 3 star review. Read more

I love the Salmon at Olive Garden. It's always consistent. The broccoli is the perfect vegetable with it. Of course the salad... and breadsticks are always great too! I like the dressing on the side so the salad stays crisp. I was visiting Oregon so I donot normally go to this location. It was rather chilly in there. I understand they do that so people don't linger, but it alsomakes the food cold faster, therefore less appetizing. Overall it was a great meal with decent service. Read more

EDIT- I originally gave this location one star because of the awful experience we had, but we went again tonight and had a... different waitress in the section by the bar named Sarah, she was amazing, super nice and accommodating and totally changed ourexperience! Hopefully all the servers we get at this location from now on are as great as Sarah! Or we’ll just request hereach time. She even said she was new and still did a great job! Definitely worth the change to a five star Post below is ouroriginal review Waitress was extremely rude, brought one entree out Right away with soup and salad but not the other foralmost 15 minutes gave stale cold bread and when asked for new never saw her again, forgot one of our appetizers twice anddidn’t even come out to give us the check we had to ask someone else passing for a box and pay on the kiosk since we waited solong to see her again Read more

Went here for a lunch and then got mansplained on how ants work. We sat down order our food and soups. I noticed a ant and... squashed it with my napkin, then another.I tryed to make eye contact with out waitress no luck . We pressed the call serverbutton and while it blinked we payed our bill .... after waiting for another ten minutes she came with boxes . I told herabout the ants and one was on my soup bowl she took the bowl and asked if I wanted another soup but we were already leaving. Shewas nonchalant no apology just like whatever. On my way out we stopped by the host station (very nice people they apologized)they got the manager. The manager came out and looked surprised that we were the ones complaining. ( women around 25). He saidthe waitress told him and "what do you want me to do" we already payed. He then went on to explain how ants work. How they lookfor protein (do they lift bro?) How they come in through cracks. And how they have a ant problem where we were sitting. I wouldlike to say I have seen ants before I even know they need food to survive (shocking) . To be honest I wasn't that mad about theants more about the customer services.... I'm pretty sure if we looked older or had a man with us we wouldn't have gotten toldhow ants work , probably would have started off by saying sorry for your inconvenience and we will do our best to make sure itdosent happen again Read more

We had a group of 7. We were seated in a room divided from the main seating area. It was really nice for our group since we were... celebrating my mother's birthday. Read more

We haven’t been to an Olive Garden in 6+ years but still had a couple gift cards. We were pleasantly surprised at the... service, staff and the quality of the food. We had a very nice time and enjoyed ourselves. Is there better Italian foodsomewhere else? Sure, there always is, but this is a good place to eat. According to my Mother-In-Law the Chicken Gnocchi Soupwas wonderful. Read more

Went with family to enjoy a birthday lunch. Brad did a great job with everything we needed. A little bit of a wait but worth it.... Only reason for the 4 rating is because the delicious Andries mints were missed. Might of been because we paid at the kiosk andhe was busy. Read more

My family has enjoyed dining at Olive Garden for many years and almost always have a great experience. I say almost because as... many times as we've been there, it stands to reason that not everything will be perfect every time. Since the pandemic, we'vemostly had take-out. I was resistant at first, thinking the food wouldn't be as good by the time we got home, but that wasn't anissue. Sometimes we wait in the bar and enjoy a drink, other times we just call in the order. We've always got home with thecorrect order, carefully packaged, and the best part, the mints! If you like lots of sauce on your pasta, you may want to askfor extra, as sometimes the sauce amount is a little skimpy. That's a matter of personal taste though, so just a suggestion.Don't worry about missing out on the unlimited salad. They send a huge portion for each person that ordered a salad and ittastes exactly the same as in the restaurant. As a gf person, I have to say I don't love the gf pasta, but that isn't worth alower rating. When I place my order I just ask that the pasta not be cooked as long, and there are a few other gf options otherthan pasta as well. A gf dessert would be a welcome surprise one of these days! Update 1/27/22: Had an excellent dine-inexperience. If you like sweet cocktails, try the Italian Rum Punch. The gf pasta was cooked really well this time. Would stilllove gf dessert! Maybe someday.
