I think with the other options for Italian food, like Bepe and Giani's or Sfizio in the Oakway center you can find much much better food. It's kind of like going to disney land and eating cafeteria food to me. The staff is nice enough, but it's all a bit forced in my opinion. More

Oh, if there were only two Olive Gardens in Eugene, I wouldn't have to wait 20 minutes to get in. They will not take reservations, but it is always worth the wait. I practically know the menu by heart. Good Italian food, very reasonable prices, great service, nice wait-people and overall a very pleasant atmosphere. More

Have been there 3 times, and LOVED the alfredo, salad is standard, drinks standard, bread sticks slightly better than the pizza kind, prices a tad above mid level, go when there is an all you can eat sale- you won't probably need a 2nd dish, but you may want to sample and share plates. Nice decor, long waits, good food,... More

I entered the Olive Garden and they were busy. I told the girl taking names that I was by myself tonight and would like to sit in the bar. She looked over towards it and said it was full. She said the bar and the tables behind her were all full and she handed me one of the beepers and... More

Olive gardens are all generally the same.. and normally, i would give an |average| vote because of the consistancy in the chain.. but this location i thought the service was outstanding, and of course being in Oregon there is no tax so it makes it that mch better! As always we were able to take away what we could not... More

My two sisters and I were in Eugene overnight and we decided to have dinner at the Olive Garden. As is typical there was a waiting line but we only had to wait about 15 minutes. We had a very good server who stopped by often to see if we needed anything. The food was very good but then that... More
