Olive Garden Italian Restaurant

The atmosphere was good as usual. Nice mood lighting with dimly lit fixtures and aromatic with the pleasant smell of authentic Italian cuisine. Our waitress, Tambrea,was very kind and accommodating, even with a 6yr old and a 2yr old dining with us. (Here's a hint to the hostess *Don't sit a family with 2 small children at a tiny table when there is plenty of open seating that could have been utilized.*) Instead to keep the 2 yr old from grabbing everything within his reach, we had to cram the salad bowl,salad plates, bread sticks, 3 drinks, 3 entrees, as well as all the advertising menus on one side of the table. That is the reason I only gave this location 4 stars. Our waitress was obviously not to blame, she did an excellent job and seemed almost embarrassed by having no room to set anything down at our table. I tipped her 40% of the total bill for her kindness and understanding, but may not return to this location again.

My former coworkers met for lunch at the location where we often celebrated birthdays. The menu is wonderful and the servers willing to give separate checks. The food is always fresh and you can not find a better salad.

Used to love this place. Really gone downhill. Had the never ending pasta bowl. New garlic sauce didn't have much flavor. Way too much food in the first bowl to try others...isnt that the point? The sausage was fantastic but the shrimp ... wasn't--and I love shrimp so that was a big disappointment. Wait person SHOUTED at me even though it was quiet and I tried to compensate by talking really quiet. She didn't pick up on the hint.

Anyway, could have been worse so 3 stars.
