Olive Garden was packed the day it opened and nothing has changed since.В  If you are going for lunch be prepared to wait on any day of the week.В  Doesn’t anyone work in this town?В В  A serious hit with the mature group the food is always good.В  I love the portobello mushroom ravioli, a personal favorite. It is a little known fact that you can get that family style salad with Ranch as well as the house Italian and it is really good change.В  Most everything I have had on the menu is good and they are always adding new combinations that are really tasty.В  The breadsticks are always perfect and great with a side of alfredo sauce, ask your server.В  It’s hard to pick a favorite from the menu, I always seem stuck on two different items.В  Go with a friend, pick two between yourselves and ask the kitchen to split them.В  I’ve had some of my best meals enjoying good food and the great company of new girlfriends at the Olive Garden.В В (you know who your are. ) If youВ go for the ‘all you can eat soup and salad’please be considerate ofВ your wait staff.В  This is one time that a straight 15% does not qualify.В  If you have had four servings of soup and salad, not to mention multiple drink refills - be kind to the hard working staff and tipВ accordingly!
