“It's another Olive Garden”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 January 2012

What more can I say... It's another Olive Garden with great tasting, pseudo-Italian food (that most true Italians would never recognize). That being said, I don't know anyone that doesn't like the food. The soup & salad also represents a very good value. Otherwise, it is no different than any other Olive Garden anywhere (although I will say that the... More

“To me this Olive Garden...”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 January 2008

To me this Olive Garden is hit or miss. Some times I have been there and the pasta tasted a bit overdue for cooking or the vegitables tasted like they were not salted or seasoned enough and were not cookied enough. A slight crnch does not mean raw. ***Thing about waiters- I would prefer if they tried differnt items on... More

“Typical Olive Garden fare”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 January 2008

Service is slow but other than that it is typical Olive Garden, not the best food in town but not the worst either. Restaurant is clean but the service is really slow regardless of the time of day you go. Don't go here at lunch if in a hurry to get back to work. More
