According to the company that just bought them out, nothing.

They plan to work on that though.

In before ARFCOM says you should throw their shitty food on the floor and make sure the animals don't lick it up! Only 5 star places and up where the help wipe you when you're done at the john.

They have shrimp pasta alfredo that is pretty good.

They make surprisingly good pizza.

Those fried lasagna things are good.

Was hoping for a cool story, bro.

This thread did not deliver.

The Olive Garden is a fancy restaurant, the kind of place you wear your good sneakers to.

I like their spaghetti sauce. It's really not bad, though the spaghetti with sausage is better, IMO.

Olive Garden is the Nickelback of restaurants.

OK OK... I have to admit, the Chicken Gnocchi soup is real good

The offer of a sample of one of their reds was a nice gesture for 1130

What's good there? Nothing, really. But you can probably find something that doesn't totally suck.

They have good soup. Honestly the last few times I have been there, and its been a while, have been the soup and salad.

Servers are supposed to offer wine samples and bring a bottle to the table on weekends and weekday nights.

Yeah, cause if you don't like something you've got two other items. When they started "restricting bread sticks" I said screw it, not that special of a place to seek out or anything.

They don't restrict breadsticks. Just ask for more and they will be brought.

My spaghetti came with a side of tortellini. Apparently I ordered a duo.

I'm not trying to sound pretentious and I really don't have a lot of money, but I went to OG the other day for the first time in a long while. It was terrible. All I know is there are far superior local italian joints that cost exactly the Same but have way more authentic food.

Yep ! Extra sauce !!!! As I like mine with ALOT of sauce and they never put enough on when they bring it out.

Salad ..... Tell them you want extra everything in it ! I also get olives to put in the salad & spaghetti.
After all it Olive Garden right !!!

No kidding.

I thought I have a sensitive stomach. I suppose wheat bread sets some of you off.

Wasn't too bad. A shot ton of carbs I'll have to burn off before I buy my Burger King this afternoon.

I feel ill be regretting this later.

And don't forget, if you even DARE mention a restaurant, ANY restaurant, instant scorn will be heaped upon you by these self-anointed culinary "experts"!

I say, fuck 'em and their meaningless opinions, eat what you like (and maybe these "experts" will get a nice LONG case of salmonella from their chosen eateries! Hey, one can always hope!)
