Olive Garden Italian Restaurant

"Really nice place! The calamari were a bit too salty, but the pasta and salad was amazing! The service is also very attentive. Chicken and shrimp carbonara is tasty and portions are big. Will be back for more for sure!"

"Good experience, but not great. The service is top notch. The manager checks on every table after the meal which is a nice touch. The server was attentive and polite. The food is extremely average. The breadsticks were tasteless and too salty. The salad was soaking wet and way too salty and sour. The soup was served lukewarm and was also too salty. The pasta was the best part of the meal, but the lunch portions are tiny. I understand that portion control is important but it was way too small. I know they can do better!"

"First time in Olive Garden, love the deals they have. The food I got was amazing (eggplant parmigiana) would definitely come all the way to America for that. Loved the salad and how customisable it is. The service was amazing"

"My first experience at Olive Garden. We waited 40 minutes for a table even though most tables were empty. It looked like they were low-staffed unfortunately, and they were turning away a lot of customers and losing potential business. That was disappointing to see. The pasta dishes were all very mediocre and lacked flavour. The breadsticks were a little dry and bland. I did love their house-salad, however! And the menu overall is affordable and reasonable. They did have cloth napkins, although I wish their tables had tablecloths or even brown paper? I felt having the plates and cutlery directly on the sticky wooden-table was a little odd. Overall, I would come back for the salad for sure!"

"Considering most dishes averaging 1300-2000 calories I was blown away. Portions were HUGE but the amount of sodium is flabbergasting. I understand the audience Olive Garden caters to but dam…it’s not hard to make things less fattening. Our server was amazing, but the atmosphere? Maybe it’s not the restaurants fault, but my friends and I couldn’t help but notice that the ONLY minorities there were given to the same waiter and we were placed towards the back of the restaurant…coincidence? Who knows. We also couldn’t ignore the blatant rude stares from the other customers as we walked through the restaurant to our seats, and even JUST walking to the bathroom and back. Maybe it’s buffalo citizens not used to seeing new faces, but nobody taught them that staring is rude? If you’re apart of a minority group, I’d definitely consider this factor before deciding to come here. Not the restaurants fault, but it made for some sour moods. The best part of the experience, was the unlimited breadsticks, salad and soup. The chicken gnocchi soup was fantastic - highly recommend. At the end they give you mint chocolate, highly recommend taking this. It sounds weird, but is highly addicting."
