Just got married at the Sarasota courthouse with my now wife & wanted to go somewhere not cheap, but also not expensive. This Olive Garden is ran how one should that I’ve always figure it should.
The seating, wait time for drinks & ordering was excellent. I got the chicken & shrimp carbonara & it was perfect & I mean perfect!! My wife got a soup & it was great too!! The house salad was satisfactory nothing old/rotten. I will be back in the future with my now wife for the exact same dish I hope they never get rid of it ❤️.
Olive Garden is always a favorite.
Salads, soups are fresh, great. Love the warm breadstick. Sometimes thats all I need. Comfort food with classic Italian film music and I am back to Europe. 😊
Love this place. Service is great. Food is amazing. I also like their salad and unlimited soup of choice on their menu. It's value for money for those who can't really afford a meal. High quality food is found here people 🫡
Typical Olive Garden. Good food, and lots of it, for a low price. During this visit, we were a party of 10, and they sat us in our own room in under 8 minutes!
Due to my diet restrictions, I tried their steak and salad. It was cooked perfectly and just the right amount of seasonings. All my friends liked their choices as well. And most had plenty of leftovers for the next day. The server was great. Got all orders perfect and kept the salad, breadsticks, and drinks full.
At 6:45 on a Friday, parking was a premium as it's shared with the rest of the strip mall. That was the only negative I had, but it wasn't terrible.
We just had the best restaurant experience ever! Waitstaff was great! Thank you Lopez and Vanessa! You guys rock! The food was great, too! The manager Adena was really nice, too! Even the hostesses were nice! Phenomenal experience all the way around! We’ll definitely be coming back to the Sarasota location!
The young lady's greeting me at the door were very kind and professional, as was the host who seated me.
My server Filipe was beyond professional and courteous. The best part, he was genuine and wasn't just being kind for tips or trying to rush me.
He also didn't come over every five mins and interrupt me. I will ask for him when I return. He should be running his own place.
This veterans Day meal was amazing and I could not even finish it. I had to get a box. The fettuccine Alfredo is always perfect here anyways.. but today's meal and service was extraordinary and very appreciated since it's rare to find good food and service these days.
Thank you all so much. I'll see you again soon.
Minor problem with scanner on table. Card compromised. So I do suggest those card scanners are not left on the table when arriving. But have then checked between guests. And brought to table on arrival. I know more work. But will protect the guest. Not mad at restaurant. Bummer that thieves put skimmers on card devices.
Wo Derulo. Our server was Margo, if you are lucky enough to get her. She is way ahead of you. Your soup doesn't run out. And neither do your drinks. We had a wonderful time. So stuffed. Love this location. We got appetizers and full dinners for 4.
Good food and service. It was a basic Olive Garden restaurant, but like many of these high traffic places, it looked and smelled like it could use a good cleaning. Otherwise, about what you'd expect. Wish we had one in Venice.
Customer service was top notch at this establishment and food was quick & fresh. Our server, Bonnie J went above and beyond to ensure my wife and I had a pleasant dining experience. We will definitely return to this location!!
Food was very good. Everything was perfectly prepared. We had lasagne and fettuccini Alfredo. Staff was friendly and helpful.
I don't care which Olive Garden you go to they are pretty much going to be the same. The difference is usually in the service. This one is no exception.
There was 8 of us that went out for Sunday Dinner. That included 4 children. We ordered drinks and some appetizers. I have to say that our server had patience. Extreme patience. It can be testy when you have children under the age of four with you dining.
Everybody received their food. No discrepancies. Everything was good. The food runners were very helpful too. They ran back and got whatever it was we asked for with no worries.
I would gladly return to this location.
Had a fantastic meal at the bar the other night. The girl tending bar, Natasha, had great conversation and really made the meal memorable. If not for the food, I'd come back just for her.
Chicken Alfredo was hot till the end. Lots of sauce and nice size portion. Just needed a little salt: for my taste. Huge salad too.
