| - I went here last night with a group of my coworkers for dinner.
It's been a long time that we've been to Olive Garden The food was pretty good and the wait staff was AMAZING.
We had the following:
Chianti Braised Short Ribs (it's was ok, the meat was a bit overcooked/dry not juicy, risotto a bit too much salt. Veggie seemed overcooked).
Braised Beef & Tortelloni (really good, I was told my coworkers would get it again)
Tender sliced short ribs and portobello mushrooms tossed with asiago-filled tortelloni in a basil-marsala sauce.
Capellini di Mare (really good, didn't smell fishy, pasta was NOT aldente though, a bit overcooked for my taste).
Grilled Shrimp Caprese (pretty good per my coworker, shrimps were not overcooked, pasta a bit overcooked).
But the overall high rating for this place was more of our waiter Craig D. Can I tell you, we've NEVER had a wait staff being so attentive for our party of 5. He knew who got what, the timing of our drinks/salad/soups/main meals were on spot, like clockwork. He made sure our drinks/water was full, the bread was fresh and warm, salad and soup refills even without us asking for more. He made us feel like we were in a 5 star restaurant, really. What great service, next time when we're back in town we'd go back again!
