Had an excellent lunch here on Friday. Unlimited soup, salad and Alfredo Dip sauce for their delicious breadsticks. I opted for... the Chicken Gnocchi Soup which was amazing as always. I LOVE it now that they have the Unlimited dip sauces! Service was fastand we were well taken care of. Read more

Finally, a wonderful lunch which was the result of our wonderful waitress Grace. She was extremely good. Drinks were delivered... to the table within minutes of ordering. Our soup came out soon after and was actually still hot! We had plenty of time toenjoy it and weren’t rushed by our meal arriving too soon. Our food was brought out and it was still hot and perfectly cooked.Drinks were refilled. Just wonderful. It’s been quite a while since we had good food and good service at Olive Garden. Dinnershad been disastrous so we just get lunch. Either Olive Garden is getting their act together or our wonderful Grace orchestratedeverything perfectly. They need more like her. Read more

The breadsticks weren't as good as I remembered, but the Chicken and Shrimp Carbonara was so tasty. Even the salad was... delicious, and I had a nice black olive surprise. We also tried the Eight Layer Chocolate Lasagna, so good. I recommend eatinghere also for the service. The servers are very attentive and nice to talk to. Read more

We visit here about three times a month. It's our go to family restaurant. However, this past time was a little under... satisfaction. The food and waitress were decent. We chose to split the check with the rest of our party (there were only 5 ofus). We left cash at the table while the rest was paid on the kiosk she handed us to pay on. The cash was tucked half way underthe kiosk, so it was definitely noticeable. We got up and walked out. It was slightly raining so once we exited the doors wepaused for a moment. Then a manager came out and asked us how was the service, the food, etc. We told him everything was good.He then said "I only ask because only half the bill was paid". I'm glad my husband piped in and said we had left cash, so hesuggested they look again. Because I was livid! I've worked in restaurants and hospitality before and THAT was rude as hell!! Read more

Consistently the best Olive Garden in the area. Becca, our waitress, was wonderful and very attentive. We usually order the soup... and salad which is always tasty. The fried calamari was especially good this time. We went for lunch on a Saturday and there wasno wait. Read more

Our waiter was amazing. The staff is very friendly at this location. The food is so yummy and you get large portions. The... endless salad and breadsticks I could make a meal out of just those two things. I had the Chicken Marsala with broccoli. Thebroccoli was actually tender. Read more
