I'm much more a fan of the Olive Garden than I used to be! We had a very nice experience here. We came for the "all you eat pasta, salad and breadsticks for $8.95". Service was quite fast and very friendly. I had a glass of wine and hubs a draft beer. All of the plates, glasses and silver seemed newer and more sparkly than prior.
The portions are pretty big, so the all you can eat aspect ended up being one helping of each there and a helping to go. They actually put our second pasta right into to go containers with fresh new breadsticks and bagged it right up.
I felt kind of like a cheapo getting the second to go, but they offered to just do it that way without us even asking! We accepted and had a great lunch the next day as well!
