This location was built to replace the old location that was far too old to remodel. It's a shame the old location still stands as an unused building today. The new location however, is beautiful! A large open dining space with large windows letting in natural light. The food is the same, the staff from the old location moved with this one. One of the restaurant managers became the GM! read more

This is probably one of the very best olive gardens I've been to. Came here last Friday on a somewhat busy night and they accommodated us on the high top table. Had a server unfortunately forgot her name but she was probably the sweetest and most quick on her feet server ever. She was accommodating and very kind. She took our time with us(a party of 6) and is wonderful. The food was amazing I personally got the fettuccini Alfredo with chicken and broccoli, the chicken was nice and soft but flavorful. I got that with a side of soup which was chicken and gnocchi, equally as amazing as always. And the ambiance was calm and classy but lively. read more

Olive Garden Italian Restaurant - Italian Near Me - Orlando, Florida

It was pretty good. I don't feel like the food was all that great but it wasn't bad either. The restaurant looks very beautiful. Inside is so nice! The calamari was a little soggy so the breading kept falling off of it. I got the carbonara which tasted good but I was already getting full off breadsticks, calamari and the gnocchi soup I got. The soup and salad were good. The carbonara was a little too thick for my liking. All in all it was still good. The table was sticky, we asked for a rag or something to clean it and they said ok but never brought it. We asked again but they forgot again so I just said forget it. They were pretty busy too so I just let it go. I'm sure they have other great things there but it's not really for me. read more

When you're here, you're family. Say what you will, but when the craving for Olive Garden hits, this is my spot. And other people must feel the same, because there's always a wait here. Nothing takes me back like their unlimited Soup, Salad, and Breadsticks deal; or their classic Fettuccine Alfredo with Chicken and Broccoli. Is it the most authentic Italian you'll ever have? No. But it's Olive Garden and it always satisfies. Service at this OG has always been fantastic and I really appreciate how the servers know to keep the breadsticks coming. They'll even pack some home for you in a reheatable bag if you want to take some home! This is one of the newer looking Olive Gardens, so it's very pretty inside. There's even a private room for larger parties that I've been able to request by calling in and making a reservation. read more

This particular location I really enjoyed. The atmosphere was really nice. It kind of looked upscale especially for an Olive Garden. From the hostess to our server, everyone was great. Generally, I'm not a fan of this place for Italian, but I thoroughly enjoyed my food this time around. I had the all you can eat pasta. I started off with the four cheese with marinara and meatball. Then for my next plate, I ordered fettuccine Alfredo with the crispy chicken And followed up with the tiramisu. In my opinion, everything was cooked to perfection. I will definitely come back to this particular location again. read more

Olive Garden Italian Restaurant - Italian Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Coming to Olive Garden made perfect sense while we were on our family vacation -- it's one of those places that always feels welcoming, and they did not disappoint! The amazing experience started even before we stepped inside. The hostess actually came out to open the door for us and greeted us with a smile -- that small gesture set the tone for the entire evening. Our server, Jade, was simply amazing. She was kind, personable, and thoughtful the entire night. She even packed up our food for us instead of just handing us containers -- such a small touch, but it shows how much she cares. It's funny because my daughter's name is also Jade, so it felt like a full-circle moment! We also met one of the managers, who was friendly, funny, and clearly passionate about making sure guests had a great time. Now onto the food -- everything was fresh, flavorful, and full of comfort. * Soup & Salad: I started with the Chicken & Gnocchi Soup, and it was creamy, rich, and reminded me of the kind of soup you grew up loving. * Main Course: I had the Steak Gorgonzola Alfredo, tossed with broccoli and spinach -- savory, creamy, and perfectly cooked with a nice crisp bite from the veggies. * Dessert: On Jade's recommendation, I tried the Limited-Time Pumpkin Cookie Butter Cheesecake -- it tasted like the holidays in every bite. Perfect suggestion! * Fried Mozzarella Sticks: Crispy, cheesy, and a crowd favorite. * Fettuccine Alfredo with Italian Sausage: Creamy, filling, and full of flavor. * 6oz Sirloin with Fettuccine Alfredo: Cooked perfectly and seasoned beautifully. To top it all off, Ellene, who's in charge of the kitchen, greeted us as we were leaving and checked in to make sure everything was perfect -- and it truly was. If you're craving Olive Garden, this location absolutely delivers. Like their slogan says, "We're all family here," and that's exactly how we felt from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. Highly recommend -- especially if you're looking for great food, warm service, and a family-friendly atmosphere. read more

This place used to be good. We went today and the Alfredo was so meh. The Alfredo dipping sauce wasn't cheesy and the chicken Alfredo was bland and tasteless. Everyone at the table passed the salt around. It used to be good but now it truly isn't worth a visit or a dollar. We spent way too much on food we didn't enjoy or even eat. Everyone felt the same at our table. This place used to be good but it seems that their quality has 100% disappeared. read more

Always loved their food especially the chicken Alfredo and the lasagna fritta. Their red sweet wine is so good!!!

Olive Garden never-ending pasta is back Aug 25 for $13.99. Plus never ending crispy fry chicken, sausage and meatball for additional $4.99. I tried three different kind of pasta and sauces with all three meat choices. First bowl is the largest bowl with most meat. The second and third are smaller portions with good amount of meat. Plus, you can order unlimited soup or salad and breadstick. I like to try them all someday. The creamy mushroom sauce and two meatballs was surprisingly good. The spicy three meat sauce with sausage is not too spicy but little sour for me. Alfredo sauce with crispy chicken fritta was so delicious. All serve hot and cold fresh salad. Server name Tanya made these location a 5-stars dinning experience. Manager also came by regularly to see that if I need anything. Beautiful decorate. read more

Ok so I haven't been to an Olive Garden in years, but I was given a random gift card during the holidays and baby was craving breadsticks, so we decided to give it a go this past weekend. This location only opened within the last 5 years, so it is fully updated and actually kind of beautiful on the inside... like was I just transported to Italy?! The high ceilings and large faux olive trees really help the vibe of this place. We arrived for a later dinner on Saturday night around 8:45pm and there was a 5-10 minute wait for a table, confirming that yep, OG is still poppin'. Once seated, we noticed the little tabletop screens where you can place appetizer & drink orders (or pay to play games on there) which I thought was interesting. Our server was actually very quick and prompt, so we did not even have to use the kiosk thing to order, but I guess it's nice to have that option if you're in a hurry and the restaurant is busy. We were actually pretty impressed by the great service we received. Not just from our server, but by all the staff that were quick to jump in and help each other out when needed. Seems to be lots of young college kids working here, and everyone was so friendly and attentive. To start off, I got their non-alcoholic strawberry-passion fruit limonata which was refreshing & delish. We, of course, had to order a side of the endless alfredo dipping sauce for the breadsticks. Can confirm -- it's still FIRE and definitely satisfied the craving I was having. We decided to skip straight to entrees and I was in the mood for seafood, which is honestly something I've never ordered at Olive Garden. I went with the herb grilled salmon served with a hefty portion of parmesan garlic broccoli and my husband got the seafood alfredo. Entrees come with your choice of soup or salad and we both opted for the salad. I've always enjoyed OG's salad, but for some reason it just wasn't as good as I remembered. The ingredients just didn't seem that fresh and it was a little overly dressed & soggy. We did get a good laugh with the parmesan cheese grater and the whole "say when..." scenario. Yeah, we like a lot of cheese, but who doesn't? It feels like an awkward eternity as your server is grating that cheese all over your dish. Once our main dishes arrived, our server brought out a fresh batch of breadsticks and alfredo sauce (he knew the drill). My salmon was cooked perfectly with a crispy seared bottom, just the way I like it and well-season (did not taste fishy at all). My husband also enjoyed his seafood alfredo and he was happy to see that they do not skimp on the shrimp & scallops. While our meal was not necessarily outstanding, it definitely exceeded my expectations of Olive Garden. We both got pretty stuffed and had enough for leftovers the next day. Our server even boxed up some extra breadsticks and alfredo sauce for us. Overall, can't complain and our bill came to about $60 before tip, which honestly is a steal for eating out these days. read more

First time coming to this Olive Garden and it didn't disappoint. Our server was amazing, he was friendly and kept checking in on us to make sure we were good.

Gift cards are the only reason I came for lunch twice in one week. Big Disappointment again. The salad is oversaturated with dressing. The Soups, except for the Pasta Fagule, was flavorless.

For a chain restaurant you wouldn't expect much of a surprise but surprisingly I was! They say they treat you like family and that they did. My mother has a food allergy and the waitress assured us that they will attend to the dish carefully and even had the manager himself bring out the dish. They really made us feel like family and the family style seating was also a very charm. The food was good although I didn't get a picture of it, just know it was eaten with love. Who ever is training your staff at this location deserves a raise! Thank you Olive Garden for a great experience. read more

Olive Garden Italian Restaurant - Endless soup - Italian Near Me - Orlando, Florida

This is my favorite Olive Garden location by far. It has been completely built from the ground up to fit the Olive Garden asthetic. You walk in and hear the Italian crooners singing the hits in a nice atmosphere of Italian decor that strives to make you feel like you're outside. There is an exclusive side entrance and waiting area for carry out so if you are coming to sit and enjoy your meal the front doors are for you. Come for lunch as the prices on the weekday lunch menu are not only affordable between $10-14 but also come with soup or salad and unlimited breadsticks. So much food for the price! We got the chicken Parmesan and the eggplant Parmesan. Both of them came with a side of spaghetti. My husband got the salad and I got the minestrone soup. All of it was very tasty and we always get the same friendly service every time. read more

Unlimited soup, salad, and breadsticks on weekdays for lunch for 8.99....need I say more?! The salad is one of my favorite salads ever, I need that dressing. I don't usually eat soup but my boyfriend loves the Chicken and Gnocchi. My sister also enjoyed her Zuppa Toscana soup. I enjoy ordering the unlimited soup, salad, and breadsticks along with an appetizer for the table - I really like the Stuffed Ziti Fritta, they have the perfect crunch. The breadsticks weren't as good as I remembered them being (a little chewy), but good when warm; they also don't heat up too well if you take them home for later. Service was attentive and very generous with the food given - she gave a whole new basket of breadsticks when we were almost done with the first and gave an extra soup for my sister to take home. I also love that they have specific to-go containers for different food items (soup vs salad). Ambiance was nothing to write home about, typical Olive Garden "Italian" decor. Overall, great place for the unlimited deal! Otherwise, I find it a bit too expensive for the quality. read more

I ordered the spaghetti with meat sauce and meatballs. To my surprise it was amazingly tasty . The sauce was not too sour and not too sweet. Perfectly seasoned. The spaghetti was cooked just right . The chunky meat sauce was delightful. The meatloaf was also perfectly seasoned. Just the right amount of spice and garlic . One of the most tasty meatballs I ever had . The meatballs was not dried . They were moist and juicy . The salad was super fresh . The breadsticks was tasty chewy and soft . The overall price was very affordable . The portions was super generous. I ate and gave some to my dog and my dog devoured everything. I still have 70% leftovers for the next meals . It's quite shocking to me :) and I m extremely pleased . Gonna have a great night snacks at midnight or one am I;) read more

Today we were not impressed with Olive Garden's food. The shrimp with fettuccine Alfredo was all cold. Lunch portion got very skimpy. The chicken & gnocci soup came as 1/2 of 1/2 of a bowl of soup with only 2 gnocci. What's up with this place. What a big disappointment. Won't wonder why they are closing all these restaurants. Find someone else to go. It's not worth the money. read more

Today my wife and I went to Olive Garden so that I could receive my Veterans Day diner. We went at 4pm and got right in and had a wonderful server. I could not be more happy with the staff and the dinner. Of course, it was too much food so we both have dinner for tomorrow evening. Thank you Olive Garden for recognizing us veterans. I was in the Army from 71-79 and during the Vietnam War we were treated badly. These Veteran Days specials means to much each year. Olive Garden is one of the best at recognizing veterans! Again, thank you! read more

Our server Matt was great! Okay, let's begin. We ordered lasagna, which was cold, but the plate was hot, and it was old tasting. The ambience was good, due to it being one of the more recently built Olive gardens. We were sad in a really cool section, unfortunately the chairs were pretty dirty. This experience usually wouldn't have been bothersome but seeing as the prices of Olive garden have gone up significantly, it didn't help. read more

Who doesn't love never ending soup, salad & bread sticks at Olive Garden? For under $10 ($8.99 to be exact), you can take advantage of this popular lunch special 11AM-3PM M-F and eat your body weight in delicious breadsticks until you end up in an inevitable food coma. I've been to a ton of different locations and I find them to be consistent when it comes to service and quality of food (this location is no exception as I've been a few times and always leave happy). Our server (unfortunately can't recall her name but it started with a G) was very pleasant, attentive and always offered refills of anything that she noticed was getting low. The breadsticks came out warm, the soup came out hot & the salad was perfectly dressed (can't get enough of their yummy dressing). I'll admit that I usually don't go to Olive Garden for their other menu items, so this review is solely based on the soup, salad & breadsticks special - But if that's your thing too, you can never go wrong here when you're in the mood for a quick, satisfying & light bite to eat. Oh, and let's not forget about the Andes mints they drop on the table at the end of the meal.. Why can't all restaurants do this!? read more

Joey was an awesome server. He was friendly and engaging: all you could want in a server. The food, however, left a lot to be desired. The crispy shrimp fritta misto was soggy shrimp and bland sauces. My spaghetti and meatballs tasted like someone opened a jar sauce and dumped it on overcooked pasta. The only things that were tasty were then breadsticks and my gnocchi soup. Honestly I didn't really expect a super meal, I was asked to go with some friends, but I had hoped it would be good. Fast food Italian just doesn't seem to be in my cards. read more

Buyer Beware! Ordered takeout. One of the items ordered was a house salad. We get the order home and the house salad was the same size as the salad option that comes with a meal. It appears to be false advertising as the menu clearly offers a house salad as a meal for $9.29! I called the restaurant and spoke to one of the staff members. When I asked about the salad I was told "oh we don't have a separate salad as a meal, it's the same as you would get with a meal". read more

The unlimited salad and soup is unbeatable! We had the calamari, perfectly seasoned. The make your own pasta of angel hair, marinara, and chicken added was a huge portion and very tasty. The chicken marsala was nicely seasoned and came with side of fettuccine alfredo. The sausage and potato soup is my favorite. The house salad was also very nice. They allowed us to same the red roscato and it was very easy to drink and perfectly sweet. The newly remodeled Olive Garden was beautiful inside and food tasted great! Can't miss those breadsticks! Also they are doing a special where, any entree purchase, you can pay $5 for a meal to take home (spaghetti with meat sauce, fettuccine alfredo, five cheese ziti and stuffed fettuccine alfredo! read more

Okay, so I know it's a chain, I've been here before and had a good time. This time we showed up on a Tuesday night, there was a 15 minute wait, but the bar looked empty, so we decided to go there. First off, the bar was full of plates and glasses, etc. nobody was there. So we slowly sat down hoping everyone was gone. After awhile the stuff in front of us was cleared away, but not anything else. After about 15 minutes we finally got to order a drink and an appetizer. The Italian margarita was not bad, the fried lasagna bites were okay, we ate most of them, I wouldn't tell people to go there just for that. After that we waited some more, the bar was still full of empty plates and glasses, I think it was at least 30 minutes at this point. We finished our drinks, and waited some more. We got the attention of the bartender, and ordered another round of drinks and dinner. This round of drinks were not like the first, basically just margarita mix. Bread finally came out, almost 10 more minutes for the Alfredo sauce. Bar still hasn't been touched, between the two of us and the one person next to us, it seemed strange. Food finally comes out. The chicken park, my favorite, tasted very peppery, I ate most of it, and saying I've had worse, isn't a compliment. Wife had the 5 cheese ziti. Wow, that was something, I'm not sure what was going on there, on top it looked okay, once you got into it, it was some pink sauce, it looked like ranch and tomato sauce. I couldn't quite identify what flavors were going on, but not good at all. At this point, 1 1/2 hours after we sat down, a busboy came by me picked up some of the dirty plates next to me, not all of them. We were still looking at our glasses and side plates sitting in front of us as well. The only other person at the bar had a small meal with salad drinks etc, all of his plates were as piled up as ours. When it was all said and done, we finally got our check, the bar was almost cleaned off, but not completely. In all fairness, it did seem a little busy, with only one bartender, maybe too much, but in my experience, it shouldn't have been a problem. The food was not what I remember from 2 years ago. The service was friendly, but subpar. At some point we will probably check in again, but it will be awhile. read more

Olive Garden Italian Restaurant - Italian Near Me - Orlando, Florida

New location's about a year old now. First time in this week was Amazing. ...wait, I've been in to buy gift cards. Anyway, was though we rented the place out just for ourselves; no doubt thanks, no thanks to Covid. Anyway everything was spectacular. We couldn't have imagined a better Olive Garden experience. This was certainly the standard that sets the standard. Flawless execution of concept, from the waitstaff down to the foods even including that snazzy late 70s kinda vibe. The space. I should have pulled up in a black 78 Lincoln Town Car. lol Special props go out to the hostess and our waiter who delivered 100%. And then I woke up, but I didn't. Everything's downhill from here. Thanks for the Awesome lunch. read more

It's time to stop hating on Olive Garden. No one said thinks this is the height of Italian cuisine. It is however one of the best lunch deals you can find, consistently good food and service and reliable! Also I don't feel guilty bringing my kid head and having him be loud. This place is made for families. Seriously though, don't sleep on the lunch menu. And some surprisingly good mixed drinks. read more

My name is Rebekah and I love me some Olive Garden now and then. Ok, so I know...who is coming on Yelp to find out the scoop on a chain restaurant we've most likely all dined at multiple times throughout their lives??? Well maybe SOMEONE is!!! And when it comes to OGs this one is the best I've been to in a minute. Friends, this Olive Geezy has stepped up its game while still delivering that carb heavy menu you know and love. Our server Katie was lovely and kept our Shirley Temples filled. We started off with Alfredo dipping sauce for our breadsticks (sorry cholesterol) and OG's house salad. Truly, this should be the meal. We tell ourselves every time...soup salad breadsticks, that all we need but then our eyes see those entrees and well...my love's ravioli was cheeeesy and delicious and reheated well for lunch the next day. I enjoyed my classic chicken parmigiana although a bit more sauce would have taken it where over the top. They have a deal now where you can take home an entree from a pre-selected list for $6 with the purchase of another entree. But we had plenty of food leftover so we decided against it (you're welcome cholesterol). All in all Olive Garden still checks the boxes for me, and I love the revamp (rebuild) of this one. Plenty of parking and you can join the waitlist on their app! read more

First time here for us and wow it is by far the nicest OG we have ever been inside of. The architecture is top notch and really is setup super nice. We ordered and I bet our food was out in under 15 minutes. My tour of Italy was smokin hot and my daughters shrimp scampi was good as well. The service was a little slow but they are all extremely helpful and always seemed chipper. I will say however that we have noticed the items U order are getting to be smaller portions than what they used to be. The chicken for instance on the tour is half the size that it used to be as well as the Alfredo is smaller but hey the prices are still the same read more

This has to be the best decorated olive garden!!! So pretty. You feel as if you are in Italy! Very spacious and upscale service.

Brand new location with all the updated perks and benefits! This one has been open a little over a month now and we really like it. They do have a smaller parking lot, and when it's busy you may have to park in the other side in the expanded lot, but no biggie - get those steps in! The have an array of seating options, from bar top to larger tons for just a single large group. They have nice large windows that let in a lot of natural light an they break out the layout into sections, which keeps the noise down. The menu is the same as other locations and my personal fave is the create your own pasta dish. Angel hair, meat sauce and salad are my go to. Of course breadsticks are a must!! Staff has been excellent here and we've felt welcome each time. They are definitely family friendly for those with littles. Overall: A++ Super happy with this new location and love the vibe! read more

My friends always tease me about loving Olive Garden. They always tell me that it's not real Italian food. They may be right but I'll ALWAYS and FOREVER love Olive Garden. I have fond memories of eating there since my very first visit as a teenager. No matter which state or location you go to, the consistency is always the same. I mean, who doesn't love their never ending soup, salad and breadsticks? Every time I dine here, I always order the same thing. Salad and their Zuppa toscana soup with Alfredo to dip my breadsticks in. Their minestrone and pasta fagiol soup is good too. I also like the chicken gnocchi soup as well. When I'm done with one soup, I just simply ask for another soup. My palate enjoys different flavors so coming here fulfills that. I love their calamari and the different sauces it comes with. One bite I want zesty and the next I can have marinara. Again, my palate enjoys different flavors so coming here fulfills that. Aside from the appetizers, their main dishes are pretty delicious. I always get their seafood Alfredo. Our last visit, hubby ordered the chicken parmigiana which he enjoyed a lot. The great thing about Olive Garden is that they are military friendly. Every year on Veterans Day, they support our military with a free meal. So can someone please tell me why I get teased for loving Olive Garden so much? read more
