I've been coming to Olive Garden for months at lunchtime and have had good to great experiences I usually head in around 1 , after the rush, and pretty much stick to the soup/ entree lunch menu, food on their lunch menu has been surprisingly good, and good value.
Yes it's a chain but the consistency of the lunch offering has been wonderful over the past 4 months , the servers have been great , hostesses great and it's not the understaffed dead-zone that many of the surrounding chains offer you should you dine later than average.
I recently had a small issue they were really good re wanting to help, The manager , and I regret I don't have the name, overheard and went above and beyond in remedying the situation so if there were to be another issue I have full confidence that they'd handle it appropriately.
