  Friendly staff. Decent Italian fare though a touch on the salty side. I had the chicken and gnocchi soup and the chicken scampi. Soup was nice but a bit salty for my liking. My wife had the minestrone and she found it delicious. The chicken scampi was yummy and properly seasoned. I would recommend this dish highly! My wife loved her chicken and gnocchi entree - they were tender and well cooked! Sauce was lovely and complimentary to the chicken. For dessert my and I split the scillian cheesecake - it is a step away from the traditional cream cheese because they used riccota instead. It was fantastic! I found it a touch dry but the chocolate sauce and the mint chocolate gave it a wonderful flavor. Admittedly this was first visit to olive garden in 4 years (the last time I had a pretty bad experience) but this time the food and especially the service was miles beyond what we experienced previously. I would recommend popping by here! Ask for Hazel, she was our server tonight and she was awesome!

  Mediocre Italian food. Much of it tastes as if it came from the Olivieri section in the grocery store. Doesn't taste made in house, more assembled in house. Staff were great which made for a better evening and our server brought a couple different wines to sample before we ended up settling on a bottle purchase which was a nice touch. Restaurant is very loud, there were too many families with small children and crying infants for my liking, but I get it, families need to eat too. Consider this a family restaurant with inflated, near fine dining, prices. Prices reflect a restaurant with handmade everything from scratch and artisan chef creations that have unique flavour profiles. Reminder, Olive Garden is a chain restaurant and lacks this. I'd give it a higher rating if they accepted an identity as either a family restaurant with those prices; or, a fine dining restaurant with that quality of food and atmosphere. It seems to lack an identity.

  We had an excellent meal enjoyed by all, with quick service. Food for the kids came out as soon as it was ready. The server did forget one dessert, but brought it quickly once she noticed her mistake. Even my in-laws enjoyed it! If you've never been, be prepared for salted breadsticks and a heavily dressed salad.

  Very good restaurant, with huge selection of Mediterranean dishes, for healthy and indulgence. Prices are right. Not very crowded at lunchtime. But dishes are too salty, soups, fries, pasta. If they can reduce salt, health conscious people will like it.
