Its been a long time since I ate at an Olive Garden, but recently my wife and I went and it was much better than I remember. For starters, our server was amazing and I wish I had his name to share because he was outstanding. He made a few excellent recommendations and was very knowledgeable in answer our questions. The menu design was very nice and fairly well laid out. Our drinks were simply water and soda, we did not try any of their alcoholic beverages. Our appetizer was fried cheese sticks with marinara they were smallish but quite good and enough for 2 people. For the main course we both had their currently running deal the endless pasta with endless soup and salad. We both tried the chicken and gnocchi soup and while I quite enjoyed it my wife found it a bit bland. For the pasta my wife got spaghetti with classic marinara and meatballs while I got Garlic Alfredo sauce on angel hair pasta with fried chicken fritta. Both were excellent and enjoyable. They have several other sauces, toppings, and pasta types. 2 sauces are gluten free and 1 is vegetarian. I believe there is 1 or 2 gluten free meats as well. In addition, they serve free bread sticks with every meal and they were quite delicious especially with the side of Alfredo we ordered on our servers recommendation.

The waitress was very attentive. Not only our table, but three other customers. She loves her job. She deserves a raise. She is a keeper. We were at Laffeyett Indiana. Traveling. We will stop again on our way back through.. She works second shift. She helped us out with our ordering. The food was delicious. She has a great personality. And knew just how to make us feel welcome. Forgot her name, she does have black hair. We will eat at Olive Garden, again.. In Fort Wayne. We dont have one in Huntington Indiana. Will tell all of our friends about how good the food at Olive Garden. Thank you. Joyce James 726 E. Tipton St Huntington Indiana 46750

This is about the worst meal we have had out. My linguini was mush, way overcooked. My wifes Alfredo appeared to have been sitting under a warmer for hours. It was completely dried out. The salad, which in the past has been good, was limp and much beyond its time. My daughters soup was good. The service was OK. Overall, it really sucked. All in over $76 for three to have really bad pasta and salad. We will not be back. I have never had a bad meal in Italy. Unfortunately I now have had really really bad "Italian" in Lafayette Indiana...

Food was good, bartender Torre.. Spools be nicknamed"torrible" and said by charles barkely... She left for a cigarette break as soonas she handed me my food, then she didnt come back til five minutes after I was done. If I wanted to sit in front of dirty dishes I works have stayed home....there I would have at least a drink in front of me. Also she made me two italian margaritas that rated completely different and bitched about how few tips she got this week, I wish google maps had a black start that warned you not to go here

I travel quite a bit for work and find myself visiting Olive Garden in various locations. This one certainly breaks the mold in service and quality. The staff was friendly and polite, offering helpful suggestions when asked and moving with efficiency to both provide well prepared dishes promptly and keep your area free of dishes that youve finished with to make sure you have plenty of room to enjoy your meal. Management was equally friendly and engaging, helping to create a welcoming and family like atmosphere.

We are AVID Olive Garden goers and usually have a positive experience. Sometimes it takes a while for a server to initially get to the table, but theyre pretty good about checking if you need anything. We get the Braised Beef Tortellini and Zuppa Toscana and theyre both GREAT! The beef is by FAR the best dish, even if youre not a huge beef fan to begin with. However, I do wish that they allowed reservations, but this is a company flaw, not just the locations.

Ive been getting to go orders so like others have said they can get pretty busy inside and the food is always absolutely amazing and still hot and theres a manager who is so kynd and Ive seen him while waiting and he has talked to me and I just love that he doesnt treat me as only a customer but we talked about interesting stuff and one day about holidaze, just a grate guy and fun to talk to and is still my number one favorite place to order.

Food was served cold. Something was wrong with the a/c and the restaurant was very hot (temp outdoors 96), we were provided with no apology for this. Meal total was over $100.00 for 4 adults and 1 toddler. Was offered no compensation for cold food. I would not go back due to poor customer service and subpar quality of food. Also believe the waitstaff should be educated on proper etiquette.

Last night six of us went out for dinner. My Tour of Italy was way overcooked. The chicken parm portion was even hard to cut. My husbands shrimp scampi was delicious. Two weeks ago we had a perfect Saturday lunch with a delightful waitress, Kris Hansen. Next time I will certainly ask for her. My Black Lab will be enjoying my Tour of Italy today. I hope he can chew it!

My mother and I go whenever we both have the time to enjoy the delicious soup and salad. All you can eat soup, salad, and breadsticks for something crazy like a little over $13 for the both of us! (we both get water though) The servers are really nice, and good at their job. Definitely worth trying, and get the zuppa, its the best. :)

I hated my whole experience. Usually when I come I get the lamb biriyani however today I odered the chicken tikka massala. It was the worst dish I ever had. It tasted like chicken stewed in Campbell condensed tomato soup. And to top it off the customer service was HORRIBLE. I will never again will I patronize this establishment.

Its a great place to get Italian cuisine. The prices are good, and the staff is extremely polite. I was very impressed by all of the new menu selections, and the convenient electronic device at the table. You can use it to view the menu, order food, summon the waiter, and pay your bill. The entire experience was very nice.

Our server was a great example for anyone in hospitality. She listened to us when we said we were both tired and hungry. When my wife decided she needed to get home our server altered the order to make it take out very cheerfully. As we left she wished us a good meal at home and good rest. And the meal was very good too.

Usual good Italian type food, interesting interior, good service. I enjoy pastas, of which there are several. I would enjoy a possibility to build the type pasta dish from a sizable menu of choices. Seems what is available must be prepared and frozen rather than freshly made.
