Our waiter, Ritchie, seemed a bit inexperienced, but he was friendly so we can overlook that. We always love the endless salad at Olive Garden, and this visit was no exception. We would recommend Olive Garden to others.

We had the soup (pasta fagioli) and salad; along with fried ravioli all were prepared and presented in an exceptional quick fashion which helped get us back on the road…the location is tricky with all the other traffic just off I95 and it’s central shopping location; but we’ll be back during our travels again…nicely done.

I was one of the few customers that evening, which was disheartening, so I didn't return until they allowed full occupancy. The bartender and I shared stories about the exaggerated response to the situation. The meal was good, but I hope the parent company learns from this mistake and doesn't make a similarly foolish business decision in the future, especially in a jurisdiction where it's not required.

She set a great example of how staff should be in a restaurant. And on top of that, she had beautiful eyes that added to the experience. The bartender also deserves a shoutout for making the perfect Bahama Momma cocktail.

We usually don't get a good service of restaurants because we have four children under five years, but she never skipped a beat to make things more comfortable for us, and that really helped to put the mood for my children, want to enjoy themselves. I can't express how we sat in time, were served and were constantly checked for refills or extras. It was wonderful to be treated so well and we will definitely be back and ask for her as our waitress.
