Olive Garden Italian Restaurant 1302 Lancaster Drive Northeast, Salem, OR 97301

"Lovely restaurant with friendly staff. Came here on a very busy Sunday evening, and Leonard was cheerful, efficient and attentive. The chicken margherita and warm spinach dip were fabulous. I was thrilled they had so many nice nonalchoholic beverages, like the strawberry passionfruit lemonata. Finished dinner off with the chocolate lasagna and the black tie mousse cake and a cup of tea-divine!"

"Took our granddaughter for her 6th birthday dinner. She wanted red and white sauce so she could eat pink sauce. The waitress was so sweet to her. She loved her birthday dinner."

"This location is super busy. The parking lot is huge but extremely busy. It may have been their peak time as the wait was 30 minutes for a table but ended up not waiting that long. No reservation needed. Food was delicious. We’ve had take out prior and both experiences were good. Portion size was more than enough. Our waiter was friendly and attentive the entire time. Great service overall."

"Went during the endless pasta deal and for $14 it's totally worth it. Haven't been here in years so coming back it was pretty tasty for the price. The alfredo sauce is quite tasty even though it's from a can. Can't say it's better than Gamberetti's, but it's good when there's a deal going on here."

"They were very crowded and I could tell very exhausted. They will did their best in service and quality. Both my son and I had a great time there. We loved the windows and architecture. My son mentioned that it felt like we were outside because the windows were so clear with the pergola right there outside made it even more nice. Check out the ceilings structure. It's beautiful."
