Editorial Review for Olive Garden – by Citysearch Staff

In Short
Established in 1982, this chain gained a following for its laid-back atmosphere and generous portions. Patrons settle into comfortable booths and tables in dining rooms with plants, artwork and décor reminiscient of the villas in the Tuscan countryside. Starters include scampi, sausage or pepperoni pizza, and several soup choices, as well as a signature seafood dip (crab, shrimp, cheese and marinara). Entrees include classics like lasagna, fettuccine Alfredo and chicken parmigiana. There are also "Garden Fare" options, which promise 30 percent fewer calories.

This place was packed at 4 on Saturday. We had to wait 20 mins to get in. The baked ziti was AWESOME and of course the salad and breadsticks! The restaurant is fairly big so don't underestimate it's power to attract lots of customers. We were surprised we had to wait at such an odd time to eat on saturday! Have a great time!
