My server was Pamela B, and the manager was Mario H Castro. Both had been wonderful to talk to! The food was delicious, I had a fettuccine Alfredo lunch portion that was perfect!

I also got the best tiramisu ever!! The front woman at the desk, I unfortunately don't know her name but she was sweet as well. Both of these people were lovely and truly made my visit perfect:)

I took a close friend to dinner to celebrate her birthday. Our dining experience was horrible. We arrived a little after 4:00 pm and were told there was a twenty to twenty five minute wait. This was fine and that is what we waited. My issue was that there were dozens o empty tables when we got seated. Also it was extremely cold in the restaurant. Our order was taken in a timely manner. The waitress was not very friendly but also fine with me. We placed our entire order including appetizer cocktails and meal. I ordered pins coladas and an iced tea. We both ordered the stuffed chicken Marsala with extra sauce. My tea came first and I had asked for regular iced tea. It was sweet fruity or something tea when it came. Next our soup and bread sticks arrived without the Alfredo sauce to dip the bread in which we had ordered. Then came our meal quite shortly after which arrived cold. Then came our appetizer and finally our cocktails. I politely commented to the waitress that our food was cold she took them away claiming new ones were being made. While our food was gone the extra sauce we ordered came before the food came back. When the food arrived it was obvious it was the same plates as mine had one bite removed as this is how I discovered it was cold. Overall it was a very disappointing dining experience all around.

Wow are they really doing this? I placed my online order today and noticed that they have a limit for the breadsticks. I keep what they said was included with my food, 4 breadsticks bc is 2 dishes. I get home and notice they only give me 2 breadsticks. I know I did not leave a huge tip (5%) but it is just pick up. I even left a comment reminding them about the breadsticks. And btw the 2 only breadsticks we got were not even fresh ( can notice the texture when fresh), and the food did not have enough sauce (just the visible parts did). On a holiday. Sad and disappointing

The pasta was ok. I ordered grill chicken on the side for $5 dollars, and the portion of the grill chicken was the size of 2 chicken nuggets from McDonald's.

The food, salads, and chicken soup was great! The service was amazing! My only negative comment would be the nat flies that are flying around. I would like to see more of a pop and pictures to bring it more to life.

We got in quite late on a Saturday night for dinner and the place was still quite busy. Ordered the Gnocchi soup and Chicken Marsala Fettuccine. The service was really good and the food did not disappoint.

Food is pretty good if you are looking for pasta and salad. I also enjoy their soups. Minestrone is a personal fave. They have a very good Chicken Parm and I also enjoy their Shrimp Scampi.

The service is fair and servers are nice. The place is fairly clean and it has a decent atmosphere.

Taste: 4/5
Service: 3.5/5
Overall: 4.2/5

We enjoyed the nepb special even though neither of us ate too much.
The manager took good care of our dietary restrictions (we keep kosher/halal to an extent).
Our waitress Julissa was exceptional, we really felt comfortable with her level of service and family like attitude. The other servers who took care of us were also all great. The salad was customizable, and we were both fully satisfied with everything.
Olive Garden has reasonable price but I've always had great experiences going.
We also got a portion for takeout, so that's tomorrow's lunch sorted.
Left feeling full to the brim and very satisfied from everything.
