Reviews of Olive Garden Italian Restaurant
Kenneth M Martin Jr
Absolutely a must. I had the most amazing Salmon dinner and my partner had Carbonara and it was just as good as my dinner. I have eaten at the Olive Garden countless times in numerous states and I have never had a bad meal. And if you like garlic bread you must try theirs. It is definitely a melt in your mouth experience! Highly recommended
Ashley Lafleche
It's Friday night. You're with your friends and someone suggests Olive Garden. Are they joking? Are we joking? Who knows- it doesn't matter. We all reached out with our proverbial olive branch and we end up at the Olive Garden. At the door, we were politely told it would be a 15 minute wait. I wasn't so sure but my friends encouraged us to wait, so we did. What a gift that was.
After the 10 or so minutes it actually took for a table to open up, our stomachs were hungry and we were astonished at how large the inside was. So many new families being crafted simply because we were in the Olive Garden, because as you know "when you're there you're family."
We were sat down and the waitress took our order very shortly thereafter. I wanted the fried mozzarella. I swear it was like 3 minutes maximum before they came out and the expediency was matched with our meals. They were like warm envelopes of cheese. I will dream of them.
By the time we ordered our meals, the soup, salad, mozzarella and bread sticks had us stuffed. We all only had a few bites of our meals as we mulled over how lovely the experience was even as it was still happening. We left extremely satisfied with our meals, and with basically an entire nother meal for what felt like a very reasonable price.
SAM LAM
How can I say ? The service was perfect.
The food was delicious and generous.
The price was fair!
We loved it 😊 …
Down At The Docks
Went here for my birthday and so glad I did. Hardly any wait time for the table. The staff were all so polite and very professional. We got soup, fried calamari, salad, and of coarse their famous breadsticks to start and finished with with seafood Alfredo and the chicken and shrimp carbonara and it was all amazing. The chicken could have been a little less cooked but over all had an amazing dinner!
Review Time With Tim
Only had to wait 5 minutes. The food was very good. The lady who served us was on point.
Marc Richter
I wasn’t going to write this review but I’m tired of getting ripped off. Lasagna is tasty, as is the fettuccine Alfredo. But the salad, seriously lacking and consistently white, wilting chunks of iceberg lettuce, barely any green at all. And…tomatoes are obviously precut hours earlier, not fresh, mealy and of poor quality. The takeout salad has consistently seemed like stuff you’d feed hogs - bottom of the barrel. It’s a shame because the entrees are tasty and this salad problem is really easy to fix but this restaurant has served it this way for at least a few years. Every time I get one of these salads I feel like I’ve been ripped off for the price you pay at OG. Therefore, I usually hold off ordering there for a number of months. If it weren’t for the pathetic quality of their takeout salads I’d probably order at OG more often. DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM OG. Don’t try to save money on the least expensive item of your whole menu.
Shaun Bryer
Great dining experience! Alex, the waiter, was amazing. Food was excellent. Will definitely return again.
Erin QJones
The meals were excellent as always, our server was training 2 new girl's and all 3 were Amazing, smiling and helpful. We went there with 5 people so it was actually really nice to have the extra trainees which didn't seem like they were training. They are going to do well on their own.
We go often but especially on special occasions to celebrate.
Laurie Abare
The menu had many options. My Chicken Alfredo was awesome and could not eat it all and had enough to take home for another meal. The breadsticks and Alfredo cheese sauce were so good to start the meal, then the salad. The coffee was great also. The staff was friendly and attentive to our needs. Would definitely recommend to anyone but be hungry....
Laura Chapdelaine
Possibly the best service we have ever received, anywhere. Our server Beverley was amazing and genuinely friendly, as were the host and general manager who checked in on us and made us feel welcome and appreciated. All this, on Labor Day when a tour bus crowd was just exiting as we came in. A crew that brings that kind of energy and hospitality when they must already be exhausted and are working on a holiday, deserve to be noticed. Food was great, too!
Travis
Not what it used to be. Us 4 adults we have not been to an Olive Garden in about 5 or 6 years. I personally ordered the tour of Italy and the lasagna was cold in the center. Ended up taking it home. While the server was pleasant however she seemed slightly annoyed that we did not order appetizers, alcoholic beverages or desserts. The bill payment kiosk on the table really takes away from the server coming back and asking if we needed anything else and takes away from the experience. We paid on the tablet and left. Only plus was our food was fast from time of ordering to the table. Food was mediocre and nothing like we had remembered. We probably will stick to other restaurants that have better food quality and customer service.
Haris Shahid
Pretty good. First time I ever tried Olive Garden. The breadsticks truly are to die for. Salad and pasta are good with generous portions. The decor and restaurant itself feels a little dated. Really good service. It's a nice place for a family dinner.
Sarah (schizoidgurl)
Delicious food and fast service. However, expect a 30 minute to one hour of waiting to be seated even around 5pm on the weekend. I would have easily given a 5 star if I hadn’t used the restroom. Absolutely filthy
Mark Rowland
The place was not busy but it was a 45 minute to Hour plus wait (Columbus day). When we were taken through most of the tables were empty, so why the wait, an act? Staff shortage? Those same tables filled up later in the session, service staff were there. Commercially they could have had far more covers if not for the "prestige" of waiting. One of our party was quite infirm and the long wait in a crowded inadequately large foyer/seating area caused some distress. Service was good, fast and attentive when we got there. Food was as expected..
Seth Connor
The food in the atmosphere were phenomenal, however the waiter we had was a space cadet and constantly forgot why he came to our table or what we had asked for.
M&T Hallock
I'll first start off by saying our first time at Olive garden ever was interesting. Although the food was great I can't say the same about all employees. While waiting for our table to become available we were told to wait around the restaurant and they would call us when our table was ready we were approached by a server name Jason who accused us of trying to steal his bike for taking a picture of the unicorn Bell he had on his bike for my daughter for my daughter as she loves unicorns and I thought it was cute. Unknowingly to Jason I own a major company that serves most of New England. I thought moment we felt belittled and embarrassed and almost decided to leave when my husband walked back to the vehicle to leave where there was a bus boy named Abu. That convinced him to stay just by his conversation and personality. Which I can't say that about him when we went into the restaurant we felt uncomfortable as because everybody was staring at us as if we were thieves so my husband decided to call Abu back to our table which did take a few attempts even asking Jason to call him back to our table we left him a large tip and thank him for his great customer service. While we waited our table a few minutes before I drinks a manager approached us and offered to bring us our drinks faster which made us feel more uncomfortable like they were trying to make up for Jason but then Beth our server approached us as we talk to her she informed us that Abdul was a new employee and he had helped them out tremendously. That's when I decided to give him another tip because I was so impressed with his customer service we were approached not once but almost three times by multiple managers in the store asking how our service was we told him it was okay. We noticed a table beside us with a young family and offered to pay anonymously for their meal then we explain to the staff about the company we own and how our first experience at the store was they thanked us up and down we weren't looking for thanks we were just looking to be treated like everyday people and a normal customer. We also decided to leave our waitress a nice tip as she was very polite and couldn't believe what we had done and apologized for Jason's actions as she has seen it with her own eyes. Some people are just very hard working and I hope people don't judge a book by their cover just because you're not always dressed the best doesn't mean someone doesn't have money or make a decent living we hope the employees complement our business and we will definitely return to the restaurant and hope to get treated better from Jason and never be accused of that again I'm attaching a picture of. The bell on Jason Fuji bike anyone with a sense of humor would wonder why there is a unicorn bell attached to the bike. If not for this experience i would give Olive Garden a 5 star as I've never been approached by someone with such animosity while representing a franchise over a bike. I hope. He hides his bike if he doesn't want attention brought to it instead of attaching it to the apple tree i the middle of the parking lot. Other then that shout out to Beth and Abu for Great customer service
Purple Lover
Food wasn't very warm and our waitress was not very tentative. She made us feel like we were putting her out when we ordered a lemonade and she brought us a soda.
JoAnne Rice
The service was quick and our waitress was so nice ad prompt. The food was delicious as always! Just an FYI though...the shot goes on top of the drink. I didnt realize this until halfway in. 😆 …
Anderson Gonzalez
The food was good, service was a little slow and the place was not busy. But, our server was nice and had a great attitude that evening.
F G
Becky and Jessica were extremely professional. now that I know that they have frozen pina coladas here, I think I might just come every weekend! You have to pay for sauce now if you want a side of it. This location was extremely clean.
Crystal Henry
Food and atmosphere is always a 10 out of 10 here
Liam Theo Creative
It’s the standard Olive Garden. The food was good and service was as well. The only real issue I have with this location is the bathroom, it’s in pretty rough condition, but otherwise great place.
HEIDI NEAL
What a wonderful restaurant. All of the staff was top notch and the food is absolutely delicious I had the Shrimp Alfredo and there was definitely enough for 2 meals and the breadsticks and salad are very fresh and tasty
Al Reade
Had an excellent experience at this location. Besides excellent food as always our server Nathan was above and beyond. Took time to chat and always check on us during our meal. Kept my coke zero topped up and the bread sticks coming.
Thanks very much
Kimi R.
We had the fried ravioli as an appetizer and tried the “Italian margarita”, suggested by our server Michael. Service and food were great!
Jenny0737
Great food! My first time at an olive garden and they made our experience the best!! The server Alex was really cute! Gotta love that at a restaurant!
Kira
Very short wait time and excellent service. The waiter was patient and attentive & the food was wonderful!
Desiree Vo
I used to come here all of the time and loved it. I have always got the chicken alfredo with broccoli. The flavor is completely different now and I was not impressed. The salad was not fresh and the bread sticks were hard. Staff was friendly and the restaurant was clean
Jamie Cota
Food was great, service considering they were short staffed was pretty decent.
Leonard Klepner
Quick seating at a busy time. Excellent service. Extensive menu selections. No matter what else you order, can't beat the salad and breadsticks.
Mathieu McKoy
Great service and clean. If you like olive garden,then you'll love that location. Keep on the good work !
sam gallitano

Always get excellent service. The food is great and the staff is friendly
Vickie Wyman
My granddaughter and I love Olive Garden and there are none close to where we live. We were in Burlington for work and decided to pop in for lunch. We weren't disappointed. The food was delicious, restaurant very clean and our server was outstanding!
Chris Norton
Olive Garden good is hit or miss... Love the salad and bread sticks! Tried the Chicken Parm for the first time. It was good but not great. Wife's lasagna was great!
Joseph Tefoe
My party of four all had a great time and a great dinner.
J.D. (ACE7F22)
Everything was super tasty, everyone was very nice and friendly, the pricing was fair, the atmosphere was very comfortable and relaxing, overall, everything was great.
Angela Vitale
One of the nicest Olive Gardens I've ever been to. Staff was pleasant, polite, and helpful and good customer service is always worth a star on its own. The food was next, generally the food "is what it is" at these large chains, but this particular OG takes their food seriously and I appreciated that. The fried ravioli and mozzarella sticks we got for the appetizers were nice and crisp without being greasy. We got a dish of marinara for the bread sticks and it tasted like fresh marinara - lightly seasoned and letting the tomatoes speak for the flavor. As near perfect in every way as one can get when it isn't my great grandma in the kitchen with her garden ripe tomatoes, you know?
While my rating is closer to a 4.5 stars, it was very good and worth it.
The salad was well dressed, no wilty lettuce anywhere - nice and crisp. The chicken and gnocchi soup was very good - not salty, just right creaminess, gnocchi tender and tasty. Chicken is good in it too, I've had this where the chicken can get a little rubbery and it was not this time.
The spaghetti and meatballs were good. The meatballs weren't dense at all. The chicken marsala was slightly disappointing for me personally as the sauce tasted more heavily of wine than I'm used to. I also wished for more mushrooms in it since it's described as a mushroom and wine sauce. That said, it was flavorful and the chicken was tender enough to cut with a fork. The side of pasta I got with Alfredo sauce but the pasta didn't have enough sauce.
My husband got pasta with marinara and somehow the marinara that we got for dipping the bread sticks in was WAY better. Sadly, from appetizer to meal the sauce got spicy and lost all the fresh tomato flavor. I'm not sure what happened, but that was a bit sad since I had crazy high hopes for it after the bread sticks marinara.
I'm keeping this as a well earned 5 star since this is easily the best meal I've ever had at an Olive Garden. Corporate should stop by this restaurant to check out what they are doing so right here in hopes of helping their other restaurants out. Customer service is nearly impeccable and the chefs clearly care about their work here. Also we saw the manager out in the restaurant checking with people and helping with clean up. Love to see a manager involved with all the details.
I have a new high point to compare every Olive Garden to from here on out.
mark fraser
Jane and I went there for lunch we had an awesome meal the service was awesome keep up the great work you'll see us again mark
Chad Cushman
I prefer take-out here...the restaurant itself is OK, plz know I'm not saying it's bad...
The food is usually good & rarely have to wait long...
brookster95
Very nice place to eat I love this restaurant even though it can be a pretty penny but I don't mind putting my money into this place. The only reason why I knocked off a star is because the last time we were there of course granted it was Valentine’s Day and it was busy but I called before we even drove there and asked if there was a table available and they said yes there is. I wish they would of mentioned why not make a reservation for a table only not a booth because when we arrived they tried sitting me and my fiance at a booth and mind you I'm a bigger girl and I couldn't fit in the booth so I was so embarrassed waiting at the booth to see if they had a table available and they only had a two person tiny table left and it was cramped in-between two full tables of people. We still stayed because we like olive garden and we weren't wanting to go anywhere else. I just wish they would make the booths more spacious for bigger people. Not only that our server wasn't very friendly at all and it took a while for him to bring us our salad and didn't even check in to see how it was going or for refills on our drinks. He didn't really talk or anything. But over all the food is always good and hot and I will come back again just know to reserve a table only and hope to not get the same server again
Shalonda Anonymous
Good food, got olive garden to go. Did notice the serving sizes were smaller while the prices were higher
Larry Jackson
The food was really good. Our server was not great. The other server seemed good.
JTombs Yoga
Absolutely delicious! Super friendly waitress 😊 …
Nicole Reynolds
Best deal for soup, salad, and breadsticks. This place has predictable food and service. Couldnt be happier to have it in town.
Richard Spradling
Literally no complaints. These guys do a great job! All of the food I have had is very good especially for the price. The tour of Italy is a great dish to get if you're someone who can't make up their mind. The portions are great. The endless bread sticks and salad are one of the main reasons we come.
Primary Instinct
This was an ok visit. The menu is still pretty watered down since the pandemic. We miss the mozzarella fondue and pizzas from the regular menu. We did order a kids pizza for our daughter, the cheese was swimming in the sauce… it was pretty soggy. Will be back again but hope for a better experience.
Stephenie “Steph” McGovern
The staff were amazing. I found a bread tie in my salad the manager apologize right away and gave us dessert on the house and it was so good. Our waiter was so sweet. He got us drinks promptly checked on us when he would walk by. He apologized for not having the dessert I wanted but I got the other one I wanted to try
Sherry Ellis
Yoooo this one of the best experiences I've had in an olive garden. My waitress was the BOOOMB.COM ASK FOR BEVERLY. Make sure you tip her good. She's worth it. It's nothing like going out from a tired days work and being uplifted and almost given a second burst of energy just by someone being friendly. I'll definitely be going back.
Rémi Leclerc
Awsome place to eat good pasta... quantity and quality is awsome for the price. And on top of that free bread stick!!! WHAT
Lisa Dee Sampson
The chicken and shrimp carbonara is amazing! And even though I think they are short staffed, the service was still top notch. I would def visit this location again.
Juan Diegalo
Friendly and attentive staff. Good comfort food.
Tshibambe christian nsapo
Perfect for family dinner or a date ... The staff is great, they were super helpful, brought supporting table for our baby car seat so he could sleep peacefully.The food is just awesome .Do not thinking twice if you ever pass by... You won't regret it .
Don Combs
Had a great lunch with friends and the children! The food was great and the staff was outstanding! Had a fantastic time! Enjoyed every minute! The kids had fun! Good atmosphere there!
Sander Tinajero
Delicious food and excellent service, and the portions are so large that we almost all order to take our leftovers
DarkstarMusic
Great place, good food, good staff overall. I've never had problems with my food, but have dealt with long wait times for seating. If you walk in and the front desk associate seems a bit unenthusiastic, it's probably because they've already told thirty people that there's an hour wait. Cut them some slack, it's not their fault there's a long wait. Our waitress Anna was hands down the best we've had in our time of going here.
Shawna Bevins
It was very busy tonight and after we were sat no waiter or waitress came to our table after more than 10 minutes. The hostess that walked by ended up helping us through our whole meal and she was an absolute delight! We could not have gotten better service!!
Lisa P
Love this Olive Garden. We moved a few years ago to a place without one so we finally got to Burlington across the water and tried it out. The food was delish and cooked to perfection, the restaurant was clean, and we had a friendly and helpful waiter named Jimmy. All around a perfect dining experience. ❤
david pearce
Food was beyond amazing. They had vegan and vegetarian options which let us enjoy our meals. The staff were friendly and kind, willing to get information if they didn't know right away. The only problem I had was the booths were a little small but that may be due to my weight more than the restaurant. Highly recommend going if you have trouble finding something for both vegans and meat eaters!
L.M. Jansen
So much to choose from, portions so big and everything delicious. Prices very good for what you're given. Waitress so wonderful
Heather Payne
Allowed me to order take-out 5 minutes before closing, very accomodating
Amy Roberge
Delicious 😋. We got there late after a baseball game and they were very friendly and accommodating. The food and drinks were great. …
Chet Morey
Good food, great atmosphere, good prices.
Michael Collins
Always an enjoyable meal when I visit here.
Fred Haulenbeek
I'm new to Olive Garden. On this particular day the soup and salad option was perfect for me. In fact, my two companions had the same. We were all very pleased. Definitely will consider returning.
Harry Hirschberger
The food was good and hot. Our server was not fully engaged.
Sarah Sutton
We spent 3 hours in this Olive Garden through no fault of our own. The best part for us is that the General Manager came to our table and took full responsibility for the issues and didn't offer any excuses! He made sure our food was delivered to the table piping hot and delicious. He and our waiter were kind, considerate and despite the blunders more than made everything right! Will be happy to come back to this location if and when I return to the area! You have won a customer for life!!
Esme West
Fabulous food, atmosphere, and awesome servers! If you are fortunate enough to be in the area at lunch time, try the "Neverending Soup, Salad, and breadsticks, for just $7.99! So incredibly yummy! My fave soup is their signature Minestrone, alway so fresh and delicious. Our server today was Mariah, and she was amazing!
S Aaron
This is the BEST Olive Garden I’ve ever been to. I live in the Seattle area and I travel a lot all over the country. I try Olive Garden all over and this is the best. The salad had the right amount of dressing. The bread had lots of butter on it. The drinks were tasty. The calamari appetizer had the best breading I’ve ever had on calamari anywhere. It tasted great. I took a photo to send to corporate to see if they can get this out to all Olive Gardens. The cheese ravioli was perfect. The parmesan chicken was huge. Two chicken breasts and a lot of spaghetti. Try this place out. It’s a MUST!!!!!!!!
Marcia Brown
This Olive Garden is exceptional. The food is wonderful and the servers are all great! They are so professional and at the same time they manage to make you feel like you are the only customer they are waiting on. It is such a nice atmosphere to dine in!
VTOUTDOORSMAN802
Everything was great! Love the chicken Alfredo! Only thing I was unhappy about is they gave me the wrong breadstick dipping sauce and I wasn't really willing to go back to exchange it or call but that's nothing to complain about.. breadsticks were fresh.. salad was perfect as well. Hope to go back again soon!
Catherine Lachance
Tastes pretty good and the server were so nice to us and be was trying to speak in French with us
Pamela workout

Keith Trudo

Jennifer Garrow
Absolutely Love the Olive Garden Restaurant. There endless Salad and Breadsticks are amazing. The main course is always so Delicious as well. I recommend the Chicken Parm.. Its so good! You will def leave feeling full!! The staff are great as well! Our Waitress tonight was not the best. She seemed very out of it at times and seemed to take quite a bit to bring things to the table. She was very friendly and did great making sure everything was okay for us tho. I highly recommend Olive Garden.
Rachael Sadlier (Rachie)
Olive Garden always has the best food and service, my family and I are always satisfied with our experiences with the restaurant
JoAnne Blair
Love the Olive Garden. Good prices.But they say unlimited salad and bread sticks. Some of the waitresses act like they own the place and don't give you the unlimited items, unless that's what the manager tells them to do.Go there at least 2 times a month and certain seats don't want to sit.Caues if that .
C B
Food is pretty good but the take out service is horrible. Been twice in the last 2 months. Both times I got there a few minutes after the food was supposed to he done. Got there, did the 'Im here' text and called to tell them I was there. Still waited around 40 extra minutes in the parking lot for the food. First time they apologized. Second time they gave me 2 extra mints. Thanks... if I actually go again, maybe they'll give me an extra breadstick
Fuzz Wuzz
Stop by here for a quick lunch!!! The host Patrick is one of the most awesomest and most accomodating friendliest person ever. He seated us with a very nice positive server - angelica. Our experience here was beyond positive. I wish that the Olive Garden close to our place have such wonderful people like the one they have here. Such wonderful experience. Thank you Patrick and Angelica!!!!
Emily McCormack
When we first arrived, we were told about 10 minutes for a seat time, then right off the bat she said our table was ready, so we didn’t have to wait which is great.
The food was amazing and the deals were great. The service was even better, our waitress went above and beyond for us. She always had food coming out and had more drinks served as ours were getting low. Her attitude was spectacular and I have never been to a more friendly restaurant. Will definitely be going back and spreading the word.
Carol Garland
An amazing place. We had so much fun. Our waiter was awesome and patient. He didn't mind at all that some of us had food intolerances like Vegan and gluten-free. We had no room for their amazing desserts. The one and only disappointment
Tammie Knowles
Always always love the olive garden! The $5 take home entrees were amazing...we are already planning our next trip my mouth is watering just thinking about those unlimited bread sticks and that delicious alfredo dipping sauce! We'll see you and that great pasta and salad soon!!! Oh I absolutely can not forget to mention those tasty drinks at the full bar!
Donald Martin

Edie Lord

Irene S
Awesome waitstaff, great food, and they sat 14 people for us which was very helpful. We were able to make a reservation which is good.
Valerie calevro
Great food great company, Niki was wonderful waitress.
Chuck Rice
Good food quality, but lack of larger steak options, and really long wait for our main course.
Jed Rankin
Ummm. It's an olive garden.. you get exactly what you would expect
Daniel Zapata II
We did curb side pick up, although it looked really busy inside.
Lori Groff
The food was great. I was very disappointed in the wait staff. It was very obvious they were not happy doing their job. I felt like I was inconveniencing them when I had to call them over because part of the meal was missing.
Jason Tubbs
We had a great dinner and the food was excellent wait staff was awesome, I would recommend this place to anyone.
Karyn
We have both had the takeout from this Olive Garden and we have dined in the restaurant. All staff, from the hosts to the servers to the take-out coordinators, were very pleasant and eager to help. When we had take-out, the food was perfectly packaged for us to get it back to our hotel in good condition, and the person at the desk was sure to go over each item with us as she placed it in the bag. When we dined in, our server was quick, attentive, and got our orders right the first time. Our meals came out very hot and very fresh.
Samantha Merrill
Great place to take the family big parking lot as shown in the picture I took! Really nice customer service and clean dining rooms!
Cory Tedford-Jones
Always have loved Olive Garden. Been one of my favorite restaurants, especially now with carside service I've been eating here more frequently. Only down side is the quality of the salads aren't what they used to be, found a core from a lettuce head 2x on separate occasions. I said something about it and nothing was done. Disappointing.
Wayne Snick
Apparently, shift change is around 4pm. Sat at the table as an Employee was getting done. Waited 15 minutes for a drink/food order. Ordered the unlimited bread sticks, salad and soup. Salad and bread sticks came right out, and after several minutes I had to ask for my soup. Not the end of the world...food was good, couple minor hiccups with service.
Greg Boyd
Early dinner.. no wait at 4:30pm. Excellent service from a VERY PATIENT Waitress.. a wonderful dinner of bottomless salad, fresh garlic breadsticks, Chicken Alfredo to die for.. OH.. and a 22oz Switchback Unfiltered Ale... $48.00 for 2... 🤗 …
Bonne McCrillis
There is always a wait to get a table here. The staff are very friendly and gracious. The food is beyond good. You should never leave hungry.

Julia was our waitress and it was a wonderful experience! She is tall, thin with beautiful dark hair. We were in and out for their 3-5pm dinning duos special. We didn't have to wait for anything and the food was delicious. Thank you Julia!!!

I love this place!! My husband and I loved the food, we had a great server and the atmosphere was relaxed. We were able to sit and enjoy our meal without being rushed. The staff was very friendly. It was a great experience. We'll definitely be coming back!!
Robin Ruttler
We went to lunch here found hair in the plate the waitress came over and went to get the manager. He came over and spoke to us. He took the cost of the meal off our bill and gave us a free takeout meal. He was very gracious about it all. I think the manager and waitress were very pleasant. Thank you for having them there. He even took the time to visit with the baby we had with us.
John Downing
Didn't eat here, it was an hour wait..
Heather Nadeau
Tonight I went to Olive Garden with my boyfriend and son. We had a waitress named Jewels. She was by far the best waitress I’ve had not only at Olive Garden but anywhere. She was friendly and everything was hot and out on a good time even with it being busy. She made our dinner perfect. She was so good with our son and was all smiles. I will ask for her every tome I’m there
Chad Milliser
Great place. I really dislike the table computers with games. My 5 year old son was playing on it and then they bring us desert before the food and said my son ordered it on the thing. The kiosk has a camera on it so perhaps double checking with a order placed by a toddler might have gained the one last star. Besides that everything was wonderful
Roman Corse
It was a Mon, so I did get right in no wait. Amazing food, friendly staff. One of my favorites place to eat with family.
Jerry Gonyea
Very good place to eat no matter if you bring the food home or not
Laurie Ann Freebern
Food was good..once we received the correct dish... Very small portion size for the price, it's pasta for goodness sakes, I felt like we were served an appetizer portion rather than the main course. Will stick to the All You Can Eat Soup, Salad & Breadsticks next time... Yes there will be a next time ☺
Jade Shea
Had dinner there and there were six of us. No reservation made, but we were seated within 5 minutes, which for them is really good. Everyone's dinner was good, but the waiter could of been a little more attentive. Other than that, we had a pleasant experience and a good time.
Jim P
Great service great food every time
Judy Christensen
Food is good. Most staff are great.
Kara Jeanne
Hands down the BEST waitress ever! Thanks Miss Emily!! The interaction you had with us was absolutely on point!!
Although the new assistant manager could use a few lessons on customer service, Frank the manager handled the issue accordingly!!
Thanks Emily! The "Twins" Kara & Keri!
Chrystal Chagnon
The food was amazing. There were 5 people total. By the time we had appetizer, unlimited soup,salad and bread we were so FULL we had to take our main course Home. 😆😆
Anthony Rock
They currently have a greatly reduced menu, nearly all of their most popular dishes are still available and the most important part which plenty of soup or salad plus breadsticks to be had. Service was great and atmosphere was same besides the reduced menu along with staff wearing masks plus gloves, it was as if nothing had changed.
Ryan Laflin
Food is good as usual, but I got it to go, it was supposed to be ready at 5:50pm and sat there for 20 mins, my wife had to call to get them to bring it out. I live 5 minutes up the road, and when I got home, opened food, everything is cold. So clearly it was done at 5:50, it just sat there to get cold for 20 minutes. Maybe try to get on the ball and get people's food to them when it's supposed to be.
Mary Anne Meyer
The food was good the service was great but we were seated across from a group of 8 or 10 older ladies who were having a loud good time. This made our experience a little less than we expected. Perhaps they should have been seated in a more exclusive area.
Christine Blakeslee
Waitress was very kind, food was sub par (I didn't have to cook it or clean up after so worth it... this time). BUT when I was leaving there were three employees by the door and none of them opened the door for me even though I had a baby and a toddler on my own. There's better tasting places to eat.
Dana Mitchell
The service was excellent- but I wanted to write a review saying that every glass we got was dirty in some way. The plates we got for our apps were too. I’m usually pretty tolerable about dirty cups or plates but it was every single cup and every single plate that was dirty. Especially during COVID, I was nervous about it. This is in no way a reflection of the service or staff, just a precaution to those looking to dine in.
Heather Peatman
Always a good dinner to be had here. I've seen improvement over the last years. I remember a not so great experience with one of their pasta dishes, but that was years ago and things have greatly changed. I LOVE their Shrimp Scampi. When I go I tend to order with the expectation that I will be taking things home. They even allowed me to refill my soup to go (no charge!). The addition of the mini-dessert samplers has changed how I look at dessert. Before I would be too full to do a whole slice of cake, but a shot glass sized sample is just perfect.
Dror Ben-Shlomo
Very good dishes. Fair prices. Soup and salad are refillable
Maria De Melo Masi
Never miss a nice supper at the Olive Garden when I'm in Burlington
Nancy Partlow
My son's took me for mother's day, it was wonderful! Great waiter named Ryan,wonderful food!
Elisa Painter
Food was great but there was a funky odor in the restaurant when we came in. Not sure what it was but food.....yum!!
Mary Deyo
The food was amazing and the wait staff was very polite
Joann Burnahm
A wonderful meal. Our server, Chris, was great. We were concerned about wait time as it seemed very busy. Walked in and we're seated. Chris came to our table and he immediately asked for our drink order. Very attentive. Would recommend you try this place
Mike Hall
Friendly waitstaff though probably overutilized/assigned too many tables.
Food was Olive Garden; good enough
Patricia Parrow
I see a lot of complaints about service, but that was not my experience today. My waitress was very attentive, and never missed a beat, even though we were kind of needy. Refills of bread, salad, and drinks came right on time, and she always had a smile on her face. I left from lunch, full and happy.
Ryan McCullough
Our food has been pretty consistently good here and the menu choices are broad which is nice. Expect to wait longer than you were quoted for seating , the steps to getting a reservation are multi step and seem like an overburden to their FOH staff .
Andrew Bessette
Today 01/03/2020 my wife and I went here for lunch. It was awesome like normal. Our waitress named Ashley was amazing. She told us about the specials, and recommended a certain one. We tried it, and it was one of the best entrees we had. 👍👍 …
Poppy Paramedic
The food is good, it's really nice inside and the staff is friendly.
Jeff johnston
I'm a fan of the Olive Garden and my children are as well, which is a plus for any parent.
I mean, what child doesn't like pasta?
In this specific place, the staff is always polite and friendly.
Food is consistently delicious and the price isn't bad tho it could be a bit cheaper (it is still basically pasta with some type of sauce).
As far as reviews go, it is a franchise but very well run.
Vaughan Cooke
Although there was a long wait (around an hour), this is a actually some of the best service I have ever had at any restaurant.
As a Canadian, this was a place I knew I had to go to, and I wasn't disappointed. I had the eggplant parm and a glass of watermelon sangria. The service was quick, friendly, and personal, without being overwhelming.
Complete recommended, you will not be let down.
sec279 !!!
The food was good but I could have made it at home for a lot less, I had the spaghetti and meatballs. The salad was crisp and fresh, and the never ending breadsticks...yummy! I wish they had more non pasta dishes. Nice atmosphere but too expensive for pasta in my opinion.
kim kanios
Realize shortage of staffing. Dont be in a hurry if you dine here. Food was good.
Al Getler
Olive Garden is dependable. Neither great nor terrible. We had a wonderful server who was very attentive and responsive. The food was what you would expect from a chain restaurant. I always have to drink a ton of water hours after eating at an Olive Garden due to the salt contained in the food. I am not slamming this particular location. The experience was fine and our local workers DID NOT disappoint.
John Mangione
They have curbside pickup which is nice. I had shrimp carbonara and it comes with two bread sticks and a house salad. Their chocolate cake is really rich, the pumpkin cheesecake was good, but the tiramisu didn't have enough flavor.
Brian M.
The place is clean and service is decent but the food is disappointing. This Olive Garden's soup and breadsticks are delicious but their entrees need work.
I've ordered their chicken pasta bolognese, alfredo and lasagna but each time was it was disappointing. The chicken came out dry, pasta firmer than al dente and sauce was scarce. I'd recommend this place for a quick lunch but look elsewhere for dinner.
Nancy MacDowell
Excellent service and food! We realized when we got home, an hour away, we had forgotten our leftovers. When I called to inquire, they knew we had forgotten them and offered a gift certificate by email to replace them. It was our error but their customer service was above and beyond. We shall return!
Mary
Very good food nice server he deserve a raise
Lynn Martioski
Our waitress was amazing we were on a bit of a time crunch and she made sure our food came out at a perfect pace to eat and get to our destination on time thank you Carmella 😊 …
Brian Tuttle
The food is always good and we love the unlimited salad and bread sticks.
Amanda Favreau
This was our first time going there. The food was absolutely amazing and so was the service! We had a very nice, helpful, cheerful waitress. We can't wait to go back!
Gavin Porter
This place has the best staff and manager team I have run into yet. Always great food and very affordable. The management team does everything they can to make your experience as good as it can be. One of our favorite places to go! It says alot when the manager remembers your order, and even sits down with us to catch up on how we have been! They put in the extra effort!
Andrea Thayer
Ordered food for Easter. My husband picked it up. When he got home, my son's soup was missing. Very disappointing. When I called, all they could offer was me driving back to pick it up. Thankfully I live close, but they were very nonchalant about missing key factors of the meal. I won't be ordering togo from them again.
Black Knight Anime
Food was excellent today. The Chicken Gnocchi was especially good with excellent flavor and texture. Our waiter was super nice. We will be back soon for "Never Ending Pasta" when it starts.
Sandra Malanchuk
Seemed like they were understaffed. Not many people there but took awhile to be waited on then quite awhile to get our meal. We only had soup salad and bread sticks. The bread sticks weren't very warm or fresh, even on the second try.
Larry Gorman
Love the OG, consistantly good, a bit loud but worth it. And it's the only place left that can come close to a buffet with their unlimited soup, salad and bread sticks. Nice, friendly people too.
Haley Colburn
Had such a great server named Chalisa and I've never had as good as Service as I did that night that we were there. She was perfect. Very prompt and very efficient. My favorite waitress I've ever encountered.
Sarah Sigouin
My husband took tour of italy but the portions seemed to be smaller than usual. We drove 5 hours to come and our waiter was not smiling or friendly which is really rare. It made our evening less enjoyable.
On our way out we chatted with 2 hostesses and they were super friendly.
dave deforge
Our service was excellent, we were meeting friends and wanted a relaxed conversation time. Our wait staff was patient with our needs.
We all enjoyed our entrees, lots of salad and breadsticks with our wine, especially impressed with our waitress patience.
Michael Neary
This is my son and me at Olive Garden on Shelburne Rd. Reunited for the first time in many years....Thank you so much Olive garden for making it a memorable time. The whole family was there, and we had an amazing waitress handle all of our needs. Staff was very professional, and the food!....as always delicious!
Rose Swinton
Unlimited bread and salad makes it worth the trip for us. Our server was so friendly and our dinner was delicious. Disappointing you can't call ahead or make reservations so waiting for a table is common.
Taylor Moody
I like the addition of gluten-free pastas and vegetarian sauces, but I would like to see vegetable options with the pasta. The company I had with me didn't enjoy the lasagna and said it was dry. Over all I thought it was good. I had the pasta lunch special where you pick pasta and a sauce.
Lynne Darroch
This was our first trip to an Olive Garden - there are none in any area we've lived. We sort of went here as a joke to do something hyper-American, but to our surprise the food was far better than expected. There was a range of choices including lower calorie options. The salad was far better than I imagined it would be. We left sort of sad we don't have an Olive Garden in Montreal. It's the perfect "I give up!" sort of midweek restaurant option where everyone can just get what they want and have a decent meal.
Julie Fisher
We had Olive Garden cater our wedding Saturday and they did an outstanding job!! GM DJ from South Burlington VT did amazing about getting all the info in order.
Frank was awesome and made sure we had everything we needed that day and the staff. Thank you all and well done!!!
Emily Merrihew
Love the olive garden. All the staff are very friendly. The food always comes out amazing and our family always leaves feeling good and full! Very clean place. Very popular and gets busy everyday, but the staff work very well with getting customers tables as soon as possible
Crystal Ryan
Great food as usual. Waitress was a bit slow but she was pleasant. She did forget things alot.
Judy Poljacik
We both had a great time,the waitress we had was a hoot!! I will admit i wasnt happy with a minner thing and she got the boss and he gave me A desert,he wanted to knock off my dinner on the bill, but i saw chocolate cheese cake,he saw my eyes when i said, "will you mind if I get that cake, and he said of course.. so thank to you number 1 waitress and her boss.
David McClellan
Delicious as always. Price is high for what you get but you always leave full. Salad and soup are always good. Tour of Italy is a bit expensive but delicious. Great atmosphere though! Wait staff is always friendly.
Matthew McGrath
Amazing food! And our waitress Allison(? hopefully the spelling is right, shes the women with the nose ring) was absolutely professional and courteous. She engaged with our children and made sure everything was 100%. I just got a spaghetti dinner and it was just like moms. My wife got the seafood alfredo and omg!! It was so creamy and delicious! I was jealous! We will definitely be back!
James Bowens
Food was great! Our server Terrance deserves all the praise for his friendly demeanor and fast service.
Doug Eash
Always great food. Our waitress today was excellant. Thier "reservation needed" policy where you have to step outside and call is really pretty stupid though.
Hannah Cameron
I came in with two other adults and my nephew, our server Becky was absolutely amazing and couldn’t of given us better service. My lack of five stars is because I overhead another older waitress with skin like leather complaining to the host. She stated VERY RUDLY (in front of multiple customers waiting for a table with children) about how she doesn’t want anyone seated in her area with kids. As I sat there with my month old nephew I felt pretty upset and uncomfortable. She seemed very intimating and unapproachable, I think she has the wrong job.
Kimberly Jump
The food was hot & delicious. My waiter was very attentive so I didn't wait long for anything.
Walid Amghar
A nice surprise, affordable price for an AA experience.
Vanessa Blow
Food was fast and delicious. Waiting for a table was the longest but given that there is a limit on people allowed on, it's understandable. Waitress was pleasant and nice. Clean restaurant
supriya dubey
Olive garden is one of my all time favorite. I specially love all their dishes made in Alfredo sauce. Their spaghetti pasta with vegetable and Alfredo sauce is a must try. On top of that they have good variety of desserts. Love the place and ambience too. A must go.
Sean L
Food was at it's standard good level of satisfactory. Quality varies by server. This time around, it wasn't as stellar. Will still recommend for the breadsticks and salads, and I will still be going back.
Richard Loebel
Currently undergoing a remodel so some things are a little "undone".
Service was attentive but not overbearing and we did not feel rushed as is sometimes the case in chains.
Food was good, but I felt the portion on my lasagna was a little small.
Kris Behringer
Stopped here as we were passing through on a trip. The food was good, but our server was amazing. Seriously, she made our visit because of her kindness and attentiveness.
Kristi St. Clair
Food is always good no matter which olive garden you go to. My only disappointment was that they only had one moscato to choose from. Other than that, our server was attentive and personable and if we choose to eat out again when we come to Burlington, this will probably be our choice.
Kristin Britch
Have had many good experiences here, but lately service has been getting worse and worse. Went here a couple of weeks ago, and my bf had made reservations. This was for a Wednesday night. The host took his reservation, and he had specified a booth. We arrived, and were told there would be a 15 minute wait. We then asked how that was when we had made a reservation, just to be told they don't take reservations. We then were seated, and saw a line of 6 empty booths right down the aisle from us. We thought this was strange, and then saw a large group of school kids walk in and instantly be seated in these booths. 25 school kids to be exact. When we asked our server we were told that they had "made a reservation". Funny, I thought you couldn't do that. We then waited 15 minutes to even be brought bread. We also ordered the fonduta, and were brought a bowl of tough cheese, that was barely movable with the pieces of crustini given. The rest of our food was fine, but we won't be returning right off.
Stephen Bingham
Had a great evening dinner with my wife and son. Service was great and food was very filling
Demetrios Nikopoulos
Fantastic service! Excellent food, and above all our waitress Ashley gave us a warm and excellent service! She really took care of us with the food and made sure everything was perfect!
Sidious1966
Always a pleasure, service was wonderful and our wait-staff were very attentive and congenial. The good as always was a pleasure, very flavorful and cooked to perfection.
Flex Mtl
Great service and delicious food 👍🏾 …
Kelly Gaboriault
I absolutely love the olive garden everything is wonderful and on point
Brandon Hanley
Slightly long wait, but food was fantastic. Their blueberry seltzer was unique and tasted great. Service was very friendly and accommodating. Restaurant has a great atmosphere and is clean
Autumn Blueter
Food was great and the server was so friendly! We went for my sisters birthday and they gave us free dessert and waitress even tried to sing happy birthday in spanish as per my sisters request. Fun times and good food!
Harold Munzer
I haven't I haven't been to a Olive garden and sometime but my friend that was with me suggested we go the server was fantastic the food was good and it was reasonably priced we had a great visit
Linda Vaillancourt
Amazing food and fantastic service from Nathan.
Josh Roberts-letaw
Let me start off by saying the whole experience lived up to their slogan "when your here, your family". That is to say the staff was very warm and inviting and the food was not good. Our server Chris was top-notch. Now onto the food. We paid for one of their dipping bowls.The five cheese sauce was pretty darn good, matter of fact the breadsticks were what held it back, but like a moth to a flame, we still couldn't stop eating them (sad trombome). My wife got the chicken carbonara which had decent flavor. I got one of their specials it was the braised beef whatever with the skinny lasagna noodles. I can only describe it as slop. The bolognese sauce was more East Texas barbecue than traditional Italian meat sauce. The entire menu felt very "from a bag". Now I don't expect Emeril Lagasse level cuisine at a chain restaurant, however if everything on your menu has noodles in it and the word Al Dente has never been spoken by one kitchen worker, it's a problem. The noodles for both mine and my wife's dishes we're so overdone we could have pretty much drank the pasta. Our server was five star, the food was one star for an average of three very mushy stars. I'll be back. We have the better part of a gift card to still spend and I'm a risk taker by trade.
Randall Ackel
Food was delicious and the service was excellent and the staff were very professional. Great time was had by all.
Black Ox Roofing Inc.
The Olive Garden is amazing. The food is Amazing. Our Server was NOT Amazing. Rude is not really the word to use. More like just offended that we were even there....and that we expected to be served our lunch. At first we though it might be a language barrier since the server appeared to be a young college student....but after conversing a couple of times with him we found this to NOT be the case. He was just unfriendly and quite RUDE. Not rude like loud or obnoxious, but more rude like not saying 'hello, how are you folks'...or hows it going, what can i get you today....or even a 'thank you, i'll be right back with your drinks', etc,etc. We are very polite to all waitstaff during our ordering and request for extras...ketchup, etc...whatever it might be...but this guy had no friendly intentions. Needless to say, we did not Tip our usual 25% (as we always do for topnotch service), This guy gets only 15%. As stated, we LOVE olive garden, but I think the managers need to provide the wait staff with some training in common courtesies.
Bridgette Jenner
My first time eating at any olive garden was Feb 2 2018 at the Burlington Vt one (or the town next to it,i don't remember lol). It was a beautifully decorated establishment. The waitress was on point,very attentive,and super nice! The food was all fresh and perfectly cooked. Absolutely pleased me in all ways possible! Wtg olive garden!! Thank you for a great experience with my daughter.
Jacob Wheeler
Great food and service. Very nice hostess got us in quickly when there was a long wait because their online reservation system didn't work and we had a 4 year old.
Vishal Poojary
Excellent fine dine ambience and delicious italian food. Worth every penny. Can just not get enough of it.
Alexander Walker
I think olive garden should give four bread sticks when they bring them out. Always ask for a bag of 4 ;) to bring home. There wine is expensive but worth the taste. The meals are unforgettable. Great time I love olive garden for life!
Brooke Barney
Good waitress was decent and food is good but pricey as expected however I was sitting in the rear of the restaurant in the booths and though it is near the kitchen door and the noise level is understandable I do not appreciate listening to the servers playing grab ass in the back. I spoke to the manager he was very gentlemanly and was very professional!
Leavme Beatpeace
This review is on the seafood alfredo pasta dish I ordered for curbside pickup from the south Burlington Olive Garden. The dish was depressingly bland. In color and taste. It was an almost uniform white from pasta to shrimp. The dish just screamed industrially processed food that was tossed together and heated by someone whos likely worked there a month or two. The portion of the dish also seemed weak. For some reason I rembered advertisements of endless pasta dishes, yet there was a bare minimum possible. The shrimp and scallops were abundant but I would have sacrificed some of their volume for more quality. The alfredo sauce was very bland but present. The salad and breadsticks were great. Overall it gave me a feeling of Olive Garden being fast food Italian on par with the quality of late 90's McDonald's
5tar5c34m
Food was great the, waitress was exceptional!! She was very attentive!! I would highly recommend this restaurant!!
Jay Michlin
Always a favorite. All-you-can-eat soup, salad and breadsticks is a perennial favorite. Nice people on staff too.
Eden Armeli
Always have a good experience, this is my favorite restaurant, and when I got engaged here last year they gave us free desert. Best staff and managment I've ever seen. 5 very STRONG stars.
Crystal Butzlaff
Not terribly crowded. Waiting wasn't long. Fresh fruit for kids meal was questionable.
Kathy Johansen
Great service, food yummy as always only problem Peach ice tea was colored cold water no taste
Michael Ormsby
This is my wife's and I our favorite place for great Italian food, if they didn't have the greatest salad dressing in the world and those bread sticks we would probably wouldn't go there. The food and the employees are the best all around!
Susan Kocsis
Our service was wonderful. There was a 20 min. wait due to not knowing to make a reservation, but the food was great, the place was clean, our server was fantastic!
Melissa Maxey
We had such a great experience. Wonderful staff. They were fast and the food was delicious. They truly do hire the best!! Thank you to our Katrina T.
Lynne Luxner
I enjoyed the service, including the manager checking in to see how our meal was, but I am VERY disappointed that Olive Garden removed their steak gorgozonola (medallions/ tips) from the menu and replaced it with a full steak entree, which now includes alfredo pasta with brocolli in it. I was told that my beloved entree order had been gone over a year now, which shows how infrequently I eat there, but the shrimp scampi I ordered instead did NOT come close to my fond memories of my go-to gorgonzola. I did order a side of the balsamic glaze, which was so amazing for the steak tips, but even it seemed to have lost its pizzazz as well, missing something from its sweet yet tangy flavor a year ago. RIP Steak Gorgonzola.
beRt joneZ
Great environment and great staff. Michael and his brother Jimmy helped us and not only were they professional, they were kind and funny as well. I will absolutely be returning!
Dustin Charland
Just your average Olive Garden nothing bad about it just average. I have never had a bad experience here in the numerous times i have attended. But also have not ever been super impressed either, i would still recommend.
megan duffy
For those of us with Celiac Disease it's becoming increasingly more difficult to go out and eat with friends and family and the Olive Garden is no exception. I went last week and just ended up having the salad without croutons. The salad is terrific but who wants a salad at O.G.?! Oh well, I guess I've found my new salad spot. There are even G.F. Oreos now (gross). If Nabisco can do it then the O.G. should be able to.
Ashley Lawson
Always love the service here. We often decide on a whim that we want to go to Olive Garden, and it's never a no its to far, it's a lets get going. We drive from Montreal just to eat the food at Olive Garden at least every few months!
Mark Davis
Been great ever time we've been. Most recently went for my birthday and it was great. Great food and service. Will be happy to return.
Drew Frederick
Typically Olive Garden all around, it fits their designed model for their restaurants. Food was ok, it's Italian, the American way. Breadsticks... well we all know about those things! Wait staff was friendly, kitchen was slow, mainly because the take outs were flying outta the place like never seen before these times of Covid pandemic. Worth going to if you are driving by, but not enough to travel any meaningful distance. You know what you are getting here, the rarely exceed or fail their status quo.
noneyah
Great staff, hot food, unlimited soups and breadsticks, couldn't ask for more
Alex Fabara
Food was not as warm, but it is a cold night and 20 minutes from my house. Food was ready on time, order complete, and the person who brought it to my car very nice.
Michel Chatelois
Good restaurant, you have to use their app to be on the waiting, if you don't want to wait on week ends. Food always good, bread sticks are the best, service is very polite, not too slow, not too fast even on week end
David Shutts
Food was hit and miss. Zuppa Toscana and appetizers we're great. Lobster Mac and cheese and Alfredo were just okay. Found hair in the salad and we're served very stale canollis. The waitress named Courtney was fantastic.
Liza Simpspn
This place is very nice, a little expensive, but you get endless soup, salad, bread sticks, you have to chose between the soup or salad but endless when you chose. Some days might be buster then others so might have a slight wait. This is not a quick bite to eat, this if you want to have a special night out and great atmosphere.
Brown& Co. (Brown&Co.)
It was good. Decenly prices quality food
Ian Fok
Nice Foods there !
Jessica Fenton
The staff as always are friendly, kind and curious. We have eaten here many times and the food is always quick to come to the table, even when they have a packed house. It is always worth the wait.
Joe Meachem
Had soup salad and breadsticks ..never got the soup till the first round of salad and breadsticks were finished. Food was good though.
Sara Valens (Willow)
This is a really good Olive Garden. Took away a star because apparently they no longer offer the soup and salad lunch, but that's not really this location's fault. The servers and management are great.
Neil Marriott
It's Olive Garden! I really can't say anything bad about these guys, they do an amazing job even though it's a chain restaurant, the food is good and the service is good... If you're reading this post you know what Olive Garden is all about, and the one here in South Burlington, Vermont is as good as any Olive garden you have been to...
Aravind Kothandaraman
Introduction of pesto sauce version to pasta menu, not sure if its VT local but awesome. We loved it. We are vegetarians so this option is a great addition for people like us.
Suggestion: they should add pizzas, arancinis to their menu.
Barbara Andrews
Chicken Gnochi soup and Spicy Tuscana soup were delicious as were the salad and breadsticks. We also had the Tiramisu and the Chocolate Lasagna cake for dessert, they were to die for. The waitress was excellent, she kept checking on our table to see if we needed anything. Magnifico!
Chrystal-linn Badeau
Great service but the food really wasnt up to par, also took a meal Togo and didnt even recieve any alfredo with the pasta. That was a bummer.
Paul Middlemiss
It's got great food and good staff once in a great while something gets messed up but they come to see what they can do. Good desserts and cold drinks family friendly
George Hartsgrove
The food was good, the issue was a lack of service. Normally OG is on there game, but this time they flat out sucked at service. Sort of ruined the experience. Still love OG, just hope this location gets it together before next visit.
Jeannie Conger
Our meal and waitress was great. As I was leaving, and walking by the kitchen, I glanced in. The floor was nasty and trash all over. Then I went to ladies room TOTALLY DISGUSTING!! Won't be back.
Liz King
Have always loved Olive Garden, and this particular location is great! Servers are suuper nice and helpful and the food is always consistently yummy! Don't forget to get the alfredo dipping sauce for your breadsticks!
David Raymond
Still a smaller menu. The food and waitress were great. We enjoyed our meal very much.
Anza Beldon
Our hot drinks were cool to lukewarm. Food was excellent. There was confusion with meeting our party. We set separate for 15 minutes, but finally cleared up.
Cris Cote
The food was very good and the service was excellent.
Stevie H
Consistent recipies and great service from our server!! One offer of advice, have your bussers actually wipe the tables and pick up things if you drop them on the floor (ie napkins).
Jessica Malskis
Best food, and the BEST waiters/waitresses! My boyfriend and I always say that the experience here is always 10 times better because the wait staff is always so kind and genuine!
John Grimaldi
We had a delicious dinner tonight. I asked for extra pasta and they didn't charge me. Great service as usual.
Alfredo Costantini
If you're hungry and have a second stomach this is the place for you. It's decent food for a great price. Service is great. If you're a traditionalist you might have a issue, this isn't Italian food.
Stevie Smith
beautiful restaurant, delicious food, friendly helpful staff. but perhaps just a bit pricy if you're on a tight budget

Contractions started right after eating here. Did not like that the room they use for meetings is next to the dining area and you can hear what they were talking about...but the food was delicious and the service was great.

Olive Garden used to be my favorite restaurant but not anymore. I’m not sure what it is but something has changed in the past two years. The food isn’t has good has it used to be. Doesn’t taste has fresh and even the bread sticks which used to be my favorite aren’t as fresh.
Pamela Perry
Fast friendly service, great food, reasonable prices.
Robert Annis
The manager conducted an interview at the table next to us. ANNOYING Chairs have tears in them. Restaurant in great need of a facelift.
Lilly Acevedo

Lloyd Bannister
It took forever to get the food, but it was good once we got it.
Grant Thurston
I've never been to Italy before or have authentic Italian food before but I'm sure all you can eat bread sticks, soup, and salad isn't far off.

I liked the place. also the fact that they bring unlimited salad tempting me to visit there more often. their salad is really good and portion of the food is good as well. I recommend this place

Shot out to Manager Arturo and server Rosa provided outstanding service! The meals are always delicious and the portions are large. Great value!

Food and service are good. There is often a long wait to get a table. As Yogi Berra once famously said, "nobody goes there anymore, it's too crowded".
Mary Bergeron
Every thing was delicious. Didn't have to wait for refills. Our waiter was great! We will be back.
Shannon Sweeney
The waitress was very nice. The drinks could have been a little stronger so you know it's an alcoholic drinks, but they were still delicious.

I love this place. Maybe not authentic Italian cuisine like momma makes but delicious none the less. The breadsticks could use a little more salt and garlic.

Very good restaurant. Great prices.
Val Patten
I tried a new dish that they have, it's call chicken alfredo lasagna. It was what Rachel Ray would say " Delish " and what I like to say " it's to die for ", I just loved it. Of course I had to have my stuffed checken marsala all well. Yum yum !!!!!!!
Tabitha Blow
Waitress was great food was great !!!
