This time we really enjoyed our eating there. Our waiter made it so nice. I forgot his name. I need to write it down. Next time but this time was very pleasant. We didn't wait for our drinks to be refilled, we didn't have to look around for him he was there when we needed him. Also he accommodate my meal the best way to get advantage of my money. I love, love their never ending soups and salads so he made it that as a meal. He told us it's cheaper this way. So I was very grateful he told me. So I end up with more food to go. Which was perfect because my husband ate it at home. Every time I come here I have to order their hot coffee. They have good coffee. And no matter the time of the day they always made it fresh brewed. My daughter it's fun of the Alfredo pasta with chicken. She doesn't like it anywhere else. My other daughter likes it like me. The soup and the salad. With the bread. So yummy! This time also the zuppa Toscana was on point. Other times they make it watery and not creamy at all. This time was creamy and thick. So delicious. The salad it's always so crispy and fresh. With just the right amount of dressing and cheese. Oh my! I am savoring it just thinking about it. So the food came in a decent time. So we had enough time to really enjoy our food. When we were about to leave he ask if we needed container to go and we said yes. So without me asking he brought me a to go coffee cup. Which was very thoughtful of him. I do really love their coffee. I don't know for sure if it's Italian coffee. But it is very good. Thank you to your waiter and the shift cooks. Everything was delicious and satisfying. The ambiance it's very familiar. You see everyone enjoying their food here. read more

Flavors were spot on, and the service was wonderful! Thank you Branden! We decided to pop in for a meal, and since it wasn't crowded at all, the whole vibe was incredibly relaxing. I went with the lighter portion of the Chicken Parmigiana, and it completely hit the spot. Even though it's a smaller portion, they don't skimp on flavor. The chicken breast was perfectly tender with a beautifully crisp, golden breading. It was topped with melted, gooey mozzarella and a rich marinara sauce that had the perfect balance of tangy tomato sweetness and savory Italian herbs. It gives you all that comforting, classic chicken parm flavor without feeling overly heavy. Of course, we started the meal with their famous house salad, which is always an absolute hit. The crisp greens, juicy tomatoes, and tangy Italian dressing never disappoint. Our server Branden provided wonderful service--attentive, friendly, and well-timed throughout the meal. It was a fantastic dining experience from start to finish! read more

*Celiac Review* honestly 10/10 experience. The manager came out to make sure everything was properly taken care of with my allergy. They had decent gluten free options-- I got the grilled chicken parm and Zuppa Toscana soup. my waiter was kind and knowledgeable. There were no gluten free desserts so he offered to box up some potato soups to go for us. No one even blinked an eye when my baby screamed. I LOVE YOU OG 31 years and you never let me down. read more

Our party of 4 preferred and opted for a table in the bar area with our favorite server. We enjoyed our drinks, breadsticks, salads, soups, and pasta. Always delighted with the music selection. Hopes to return soon. read more

I frequent Olive Gardens all around and my experience here for lunch on the 10th was great the one thing I can say that set this experience apart from the others was our server Larry. He was great and this place is in good hands as long as he works here. read more

Came to Olive Garden in Clovis with my family for the Never-Ending Pasta Bowl ($16), and it was such a good experience. We did the online check-in, and even though the restaurant was packed, our wait was only about 10 minutes for a party of six. Huge perk! We were seated in a booth, and our server Erick B. took care of us. From the start, you could tell he was hustling--this guy was everywhere at once--but he still managed to stay on top of everything. He asked about drinks, tried to upsell appetizers (which I get, that's part of the job), but more importantly, he was attentive. He brought waters right away, checked in multiple times, kept the soups and pastas coming, and made sure we had cheese on everything. He may not have been the most smiley or chatty server, but honestly, I respect servers who focus on making sure guests are taken care of. He worked hard and did an amazing job--seriously, shout out to Erick B., he deserves a raise. As for the food: everything was hot, tasty, and came out quickly. The soups were flavorful, the pastas hit the spot, and the portions were huge--two of us ate for about $32, and we still had leftovers to take home. Great value, great service, and a solid family dinner spot. read more

This was a great experience. We don't go to Olive Garden often because I can make pasta at home, but today was a special occasion and Olive Garden was chosen. Based on pictures we took in 2016, they had updated the interior decor. The atmosphere was nice. Our server was Jason and he was so accommodating and friendly. He made us feel welcomed and taken well care of. He made sure to fill our cups as soon as he noticed without us even having to ask. He made our experience great. The food was a good value for the price. I got the Tour of Italy which comes with lasagna, chicken parm, pasta Alfredo, and the never ending soup/salad. Their salad is always delicious, but I really liked the chicken gnocchi soup. Too full to even take advantage of the free refill of the never-ending soup! We had a coupon for a free appetizer for making an account so we got the toasted ravioli. Omg that was so good! My husband ordered the Steak Gorgonzola Alfredo. The steak was soft and delicious, but the Gorgonzola Alfredo was not yummy at all. That's the only reason I took off 1 star. It kind of tasted like vomit. Otherwise, a fantastic experience with lots of food (I would even say it could stretch to an additional 2 more meals) and a great server. Will definitely return. read more

Haven't been in years. Wow, what has changed.... Service was superb! Thank you Kevin, and Bree and Ivan! Food...uh, sorry guys, not at all what I remembered. Cold "Italian " dishes. No. Drinks were ok. Bar tender was too busy talking to a certain couple to tend to our orders. At least we were seated right away at bar area. I could only imagine what would happen if we were seated in the main dining area! read more

I went here with friends on Christmas Eve after the service. Had a fantastic shrimp carbonara. I have to say the last couple of times I was there. I got the soup and salad as I generally go at lunchtime. But this shrimp pasta entrée knocked it out of the park. It was creamy, yummy, cheesy and bacon. Our waiter was super nice and really funny. Excellent service but there's always excellent service at the Olive Garden. It was nice that it wasn't overly packed that evening because it can be a bit on the loud side. But we had a fabulous time friends had the eggplant parmigiana light version which features two slices of eggplant instead of the regular full-size entrée which has four. And my other friend had the rigatoni pasta. One thing to keep in mind if you're using a gift card be sure that you printed out correctly from your email. We had a little bit of a problem with that as my friend did not print out the correct portion of the email attachment and so we couldn't use the gift card or one of them rather. So just keep that in mind if you don't have a physical gift card. read more

Everything was amazing!!! The food and customer service are top notch First of all we came in 1 hour before they closed with a party of 7 and they accommodated to us with a great smile Darlene the server was amazing! Amazing customer service, a smile on her face at all times, checked in on us constantly always refilling our drinks and soups, she was so patient and made a connection with us with her customer service The manager should be proud of her and all her staff by focusing on customer service (: read more

Don't order online unless you want a completely screwed up order!! Even if it gives you a dropdown section where you can state exactly what you want, they don't do it. Wasted $30 on 1 meal that I won't eat. I'm never going to Olive Garden again. No onions, look there's onions. Wanted a different pasta, nope you'll get what you get read more

I always go to Olive Garden. Nothing new. Been here so many times. The food is great per usual. The music they had playing, very classical and soothing. I love me some Ella Fitzgerald and jazz. However. I am writing this review because Carl is such an amazing server!! Every time he approached the table, we were treated with kindness and enthusiasm. It helps the environment be more comfortable. Carl made sure we were comfortable and even packed up our food for us. The food came in a timely manner and he was working efficiently throughout the restaurant. Anyways, Carl is awesome and needs a raise ! :) If I could request a server, I would request Carl everytime read more

Came here on a Saturday afternoon with my family after a movie. We showed up around 3:45-4pm with a party of nine. The place was pretty much empty besides a few small parties here and there. The hostess said it would be a 45 minute wait with our party size. That was a bit of a shock to us as there were plenty of tables available that could accommodate our group size. We waited about a half hour and they finally seated us at one of the open tables. Weird experience as no large parties left or came during that time. We asked if they took reservations ahead of time and they did not answer back. Once we were seated, the service was good. Our servers were quick, kind, and personable. The food was alright. The food came out quick and was decent. My one complaint was I ordered soup with my entree. I was excited for the chicken and dumpling soup as it is one of my favorites. To my surprise, I got a bowl of it with no dumplings and one small piece of chicken. Most of the bowl was just broth which was disappointing. I let the server know and they got me a 2nd bowl that had both ingredients in it. Overall, I would say it was a standard dining experience at Olive Garden. It is consistent and pretty average. Nothing great but nothing too bad. read more

They are worth walking across the street when charging at Electrify America fast chargers. Casual, family friendly, Mediterranean style decor. We were seated right away but took a while for drinks and food to come. We only had 30min charge so by time we ordered food (after drinks arrived) the car had finished charging. Friendly service though slow (we came in around 6 on Sunday and was seated right away - just beat the dinner rush and wait). The food itself was just ok but excellent value - even drinks at $8-$10 was a good deal. Endless soup (or salad) may sound good but we couldn't eat more than one bowl and 2 breadsticks. Would return again. read more

I wanted to give it another chance. Filthy floors, sticky tables. Hard, stale breadsticks. Our server was first rude, then ignored us completely. It is a shame because at one time, we used to love coming here. After waiting 45 minutes and never getting our salads, plenty of staff, and hardly any customers, we left. read more

This review is all about the ambiance. The food and the waiter were great. The waiter went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. When my wife and I arrived at the restaurant, we noticed that the music was really loud. So when we ordered our food, we asked the waiter if he can turn the music down to a level where I can have a conversation with my wife. He said sure, and I heard him tell the person in charge of the music to turn it down. The music was never turned down, so my wife and I ate quickly so we can leave. We left with some real good food and a headache. I don't get it. read more

We went recently for the first time in a long time. The food was very good and service was much better than I remember. There was a steady stream of customers waiting to be seated, but we never felt rushed to finish. We had plenty to eat, and more to take home for the next day! My soup bowl was always full and the salad was filled twice! Breadsticks were abundant throughout the meal! We will be visiting more often I am sure! read more

I haven't been here in a while because the last time we went there was a hair in the salad and we went yesterday and surprise a hair in my pasta. They replaced the plate but you know the appetite isn't the same after. Silverware and cups were dirty and my partner got food poisoning. The place is honestly very dirty. They did apologize but overall it would've been best for at least half off. Wouldn't go back! read more

The food is amazing it was ready within 15 -20 minutes as well as the service our waiter Cameron was very attentive and helpful!

Went for an early dinner on a weekday with the family, and we were all pretty content. I'm a big fan of consistency, & I love that when you get seated, & order...you're getting breadsticks! Now the first basket of breaksticks, you could tell had been there a bit, a little hard in the outside and not piping hot, but they're breadsticks- we ate 'em. When another round was brought out... super hot and fresh! We opted for soup and salad, and though we tried multiple soups, Minestrone is still my favorite. Also, a tip salad wise, get the dressing on the side- you can control the amount, and especially if you have leftovers, no soggy lettuce. Kids really took down their massive plates of pasta- buttered spaghetti and Mac n' Cheese. They even got grapes and a drink too included. We got seated upon walking in, for a requested booth, were able to order in minutes, and drinks were chilled and in huge glasses too! You may need to wait a bit for fresh coffee depending upon the time, it was ordered at our table and the refills were not as rapid as the soft drinks and water. This place is a great go-to for consistent, massive amounts of food, good service, and always leftovers! Chocolate Mints at the end are a nice touch too. And- you can totally just pay your bill when you're ready at the table with a card. Had a great visit and will definitely return again. read more

Wanted some soup and pasta so stop by here for dinner. Once we arrive we waited for about 6-7 minutes before our table was ready. Once we got seated, waitress came out and took our order. Salad came out quick and the soup took a bit longer to arrive. Once the soup came out, it was fresh and hot. The place was getting filled as it was dinner time. My son's spaghetti came out first and looked kinda water down. My chicken pasta came out and it looked good but it got cold quickly as the restaurant was pretty cold. I didn't like the fact that my food got cold quickly and it wasn't appetizing. My wife's trio looked pretty sad. Her pasta noodle looked hard and hardly any sauce on it. The lasagna looked very small and her breaded chicken looked soggy. Our waitress wasn't very attentive. She forgot my son's smoothie until we left and had to ask her for it then she finally remembered. read more

Not sure what has happen to this location, but it's take out has gone to hell...... This life time customer is done!!!!! The online ordering is unfriendly, sometimes it'll take your payment, most times not! Call to order is like the hold button forever!!! Every order I've placed every two weeks has gone to hell, very little salad, very little, the food taste horrible and they can't get the order right......every time it's screwed up...... last time got something I didn't even order!!!!! I'm done, the hassle is so not worth it!!! I didn't get a survey after this order, I know why........and what doesn't make sense is they want 10+ dollars in gratitudes for walking it to my car and not getting what I ordered!!! This customer is gone! The food is average, most of it is NOT made in house, shipped in. Few items are made there but the food isn't that great. read more

Yesterday me and my friend went to the Olive Garden in on Shaw in Clovis and our server Darlene was the absolute sweetest! She was so kind and accommodating and kept complimenting mine and my friend's makeup and outfits. She was extremely friendly and always made sure we had everything we needed and was very personable. She ended up giving us a free dessert as well. That woman deserves a raise!!! I hope management treats her well because she absolutely deserves it, she was such a sweetheart. read more

I've gone twice recently... and got the never ending pasta bowls. Great experience both times. Service is prompt and friendly. Wait is pretty fast on a weekday. There is a bit more of a wait on a weekend, but they will text when the table is ready. Food comes out quick and the pasta bowls are never ending! The quality of the food has improved since my last review and continues to make me super nostalgic! I'm glad to update this review with the consistent and positive experiences. They kindly accommodated with vegetarian options too. Our last server, Jason was great! It was my bf's first time at Olive Garden and he was very satisfied with our visit! DELICIOUS!!! Great meals, service and experience for the value. Thank you and I can't wait to return for the endless pasta bowls when my pants allow it! read more

It's been a while since I came to Olive Garden, but I enjoyed my food so much that I will likely be back soon! My family and I decided to come here for Easter. They don't do reservations, but you are able to call an hour ahead and they will save a seat for your party. Our water was super friendly and accommodating. Our food took an hour to come out, but with the restaurant being so packed we understood! I know Olive Garden is known for their breadsticks, but I feel like the Chicken & Gnocchi soup needs to be talked about more. Especially when it comes out really hot, this soup is my absolute favorite thing here. Also, if you end up ordering this, save yourself the embarrassment and learn how to say "gnocchi" ahead of time!! I got the Chicken Marsala and It was a solid 5!! The chicken was so tender and so flavorful and there was a good amount of it for the price. I'm also a huge fan of mushrooms with pasta so this was a safe choice for me. My mom got the steak. It came out 10 minutes after everyone else's food, but she didn't mind and said it was really good. read more
