| - Think quick! When you think of the Olive Garden, what pops into your head? Lemme guess... bread sticks, salad, soup and long waits for dinner. Now, whether the quality of its quasi fast food warrants such a wait is debatable, but I must admit, I usually leave pretty satisfied and happy (and stuffed).
Now, I know I am regularly critical of large chains but I'm a sucker for those doggone piping hot, salty topped, buttery breadsticks and that big bowl of Italian salad with the black olives, pepperoncinis, sliced Romas and red onions. Add in the savory Tuscan Zuppa with potatoes and sausage and I've got a meal for $7.49, or at least a lunch. This visit our group also ordered the Margarita Chicken and the Angel Hair with Chicken, both were good but not great. This seems to be the case with rest ot he menu too.
Service was very attentive and friendly. The atmosphere is always lively and the sanitation rating was 97. This location is also consistently well-managed. In general, the typical Olive Garden is no more than a 3 star restaurant, however I have no reason not to give this location 4 stars. Hey, I've never been disappointed here, what can I say?
