Olive Garden Italian - Lakeland

I don't usually go out first. Period. So that was a bad start to get to this place. I don't understand why people even want to go to eat... like what's so hard to eat within the limits of your hut? And I am not talking about RadioShack (lol) and I am not talking about the league of legends (lol). Long story short, had 3 bottles of wine with my daughter and drove home drunk. Had great Alfredo Sticks

Olive Garden is still one of my favorites even though it's a chain. Service with Christopher was top notch. He was quick, friendly and attentive. Meals were good and hot. Had plenty to take home. Portions are sizable and presentation good.

My grilled chicken seemed a bit gummy. My server was great. She went beyond and beyond to provide a good service.

The food was terrible. They said they had no lasagna. The salad was old, soft and brown it was not fresh. The food was missing from bread sticks. It came without paper towels, cheese, mint and cutlery. Olive Garden USED to be one of my favorite restaurants, not so much now. Not coming here soon.

My popular American chain. We stayed in florida for 31 days and must have gedimted at least 10 nights in the olive garden! It is a shame that the menu has been modified with some important favorites removed. But still it has the best salad and 5 cheese marinara. We will come back
