I had an impromtu dinner there late last night with a friend of mine. I have never dined there before so my feelings and opinions were neutral from the start. I am not too big of a fan on chain restaurants in general, as they all appear to be bland across the board. I was satisfied with the menu selections, but disappointed with the portion sizes and the price for what you are paying for. I ordered a pasta dish that looked more like a luncheon portion then a dinner portion. It was luke warm, which tells me it was either reheated, or it sat under a heat lamp for quite some time. The service was a tad bit too slow, as it was a slow weeknight evening, i would have expected fast service. I would recommend this restaurant for maybe a light lunch option, but most certainly not for dinner, unless you want to walk away hungry. But, in my book, Carrabba's still beats out Olive Garden hands down for overall food quality and price.
