Haters gonna hate. I love Olive Garden. Because everyone and their momma has been there, I'm gonna rack up a list of hits and misses.
Say Yes To:
-unlimited soup, salad and breadsticks. I like the Minestrone best (vegetarian).
-Roscato Berry cocktail
-ravioli di portobello
-herb grilled salmon
-seafood brodetto
-Andes dessert mints with your bill
-did I mention breadsticks?!
Politely Decline:
-the five wine "blend" offered table side... really? bleh.
-stuffed mushrooms: really greasy/oily, very few for what you're paying
-the Italiano burger. I haven't tried it... but really, who would? it's a BURGER at Olive Garden.
-being seated next to a table of 5 kids under the age of 4.
At this particular location, I love their outdoor patio and the location of their bar, both are separate from the main galley crowded with people. Parking here is difficult and the wait (especially on weekends) is long. Waitstaff is above average in terms of service, but a bit rough-looking.
Andes Mints for all! Why do they taste so much better here?
