Asked the waiter if I can pay extra to select a different salad on the menu and they said No. Pasta is great, salad is average, the beet salad plate was cold, seems like it came straight from the fridge. Pizza took very long to make, it came towards the end of our meal. The waiter gave us some free fries and soups to make up the long wait time. Overall it's not a bad experience, I would go back for pasta dishes only.

The slices are large, around $4.50 each, and worth it. I tried the pepperoni and the Tucci special -- roasted tomatoes, pesto, and ricotta -- and that one absolutely stole the show. Simple combo, big flavor. The inside is definitely on the smaller side, so don't expect a big dine-in experience, but the staff was friendly and the food came out fast. Great spot when you want a solid slice without the usual mall-food-court disappointment pretending to be pizza.

There's a bunch of cheese and they don't overdo it on the sauce. I also tried the Papas Island pizza personally, it was not for me. However, if you're into like sweet and savory together, I think it would be a good pizza for you. I didn't get to take a picture of the pizzas, but the slices were really big. Also, the staff is super nice here which is a bonus and they are quick. They had a line out the door and they were able to quickly get everyone's pizzas. I would totally come here again!

The salad is nasty. I got the chicken scampi pasta - it was not good and had pretty minimal flavors. My friends got the spicy meatball and rigatoni pasta, which was much better. Breadsticks were also great as always. I'm pretty sure it was our server's first day because she seemed very overwhelmed, but she did a good job overall.

Since the year 2000 I am always disappointed. It doesn't matter which Olive Garden I go to; I'm…read morealways let down. Back in the 1990's we had 2 affordable choices in the area I lived in. We had Marie Callendar's and Olive Garden. In the 90's the food was good. I always opted for Marie Challedar's for the vast variety. As the food declined at Olive Garden, I would go with friend and have ONLY the soup, salad, and breadstick. Then The Soup Plantation showed up, and I would opt to go there. The last time I voluntarily went to Olive Garden was 15 years ago. About 10 years ago, my cousin wanted to meet up with us and Olive Garden was closest to his job, and we all met there. Again, I only had soup, salad, and breadsticks. I never had plans to return. I don't care about the good-looking food on the commercials or promotions. The food sucks. I'm going to try and make a long story short... yesterday, I wasn't feeling well at all. My husband has some workers near-by the Olive Garden, and he asked me what I wanted, he was going to pick it up. We both ordered a pasta dish, a soup, and breadsticks. I ordered Shrimp Scampi, Zuppa Toscano, and of course the breadsticks. Simple... right? The first thing I did was look at the bill it was almost $75.00!!!!! Knowing my husband, he over tipped. I first noticed that my serving was only half of what it should have been. I wasn't feeling good and didn't have much of an appetite anyways. I don't know where to start, but the pasta was almost SAUCELESS and STUCK together. What little sauce was there was BLAND. The shrimp weren't cook toughly, the asparagus was over cooked, and they gave me mostly the woody-splintery ends. The tomato chunks were mush, and I just couldn't eat it. So, I moved to the Zuppa Toscano soup. The broth was white colored, flavorless water, big slices of potato, and the roughest kale pieces ever. Yall should have just left it out or raw. Who???? Can jack-up a breadstick??? The breadsticks were BLONDE, FLAVORLESS, DRY, BRICKS. My husband ordered the seafood pasta. What a joke. It had small marble sized scallops and a few shrimps; but the kicker was the MUSHY OVERCOOKED broccoli. He couldn't eat it either and he abandoned the whole eating activity. He didn't even open the soup. I just threw everything into the trash; there was no saving that meal. This question is for general management Marci Anaya. Do you monitor what's happening in the kitchen? Do you see the food before it's packaged and sent out to the consumer? Do you care if we actually get our money's worth? Do you really understand how much pasta, shrimp, veggies, and soup with breadsticks I could have actually bought with $75.00??? I could have invited over 10 people and fed each one until they were full. This is a disgrace. I WILL NOT EVER, EVER, EVER, EVER return. I don't care who's inviting me, my answer is NO! If anything, I would like my money back!
