If I could give this 10 stars I would. Our server Landen is 1 of 1. If you ever have the pleasure of visiting this fine establishment please ask for him. He will make your night the same way he did for our group. As for the food, it was delightful. The pasta was cooked a perfect al dente and the spicy Alfredo was a welcomed addition to the never ending pasta deal. It was so good I had 9 bowls! The calamari was a little too salty for my liking but not problematic. Overall, an unforgettable night with friends and it was all thanks to our lovely server Landen. read more

Food was delicious! Pasta was cooked just right. The new spicy Alfredo sauce was a smooth, creamy, and very mild kick. Unlimited pasta was great! Shoutout to our server Landen, A+++ service. Dining experience was great. Warm light interior. Nice ambiance. I would come again just to this location. read more

Olive Garden Italian Restaurant - Unlimited pasta - Italian Near Me - Brookfield, Wisconsin

Very disappointing experience. The restaurant was practically empty, yet the wait time was absolutely ridiculous. There were plenty of open tables, so it was frustrating to sit there waiting with no explanation as to why everything was taking so long. I completely understand waiting when a restaurant is busy, but that definitely wasn't the case here. The lack of urgency and service made the experience even more frustrating. Unfortunately, based on this visit, I wouldn't recommend coming here if you're expecting timely service. read more

It has been a minute since I've been to the Olive Garden. My friend has really been wanting to get pasta and we had been out running errands and saw they were doing never ending pasta bowl specials right now. So we thought why not! We used the online waitlist which worked out super nice! Your first pasta dish is larger portion than the next ones I wish however that they were all smaller and in the bowl personally since if I'm doing "never ending" I want to try at least two types of pasta combinations like I'm doing it for a reason and it isn't because I can eat a billion pounds of pasta We had an amazing waitress who eagerly set up our refill dishes and also was very on top of our drink refills. Very good from start to finish. read more

Olive Garden never disapppoints. The soup, salad, and breakstick combo is unmatched. I love the Zuppa Toscana and the salad is always to die for. Our server was very attentive, and the setting was calm and enjoyable. A little busy as always, but always surprised how fast it is and I love how easy it is to split checks with a group! read more

For the first time we decided to have a meal delivered for 15 people. We didn't really have any expectations. Just hoping the food was accurate! To our surprise, not only was the food accurate, the delivery charge was cheaper than we thought, and the food arrived on time. The food was hot and there was more than enough for everyone to enjoy. Definitely will be doing this again for family parties! read more

I just stopped in for a quick dinner with my friend and our server Jackson blew it out of the water. I had a bad previous experience here this year but Jackson topped it. He was very eager to serve us and give great recommendations! With the sweetest greeting and when we asked to customize the salad the BEST Olive Garden salad I could've asked for arrived to our table. He even got us extra mints! 10/10 read more

Food was good as was service. The trick of changing $9 a glass of wine that is $9 a bottle retail is questionable. Drink before you go and after don't fall for the trick of all you can eat cheap food and drinks priced at 2000% above retail. Rip off read more

Olive Garden Italian Restaurant - Receipt - Italian Near Me - Brookfield, Wisconsin

It was my first time at an Olive Garden and I really liked it. I had the never ending pasta- first the spicy meatball sauce with angel hair! Delish and it does have a kick to it. Second the creamy mushroom sauce with rigatoni- this one not as impressive. The drinks were okay, just very sweet. The waitress was very attentive and very respectful. However, I did have a negative experience as my friends and I walked into the restaurant to be seated. For reference we're a little short but this fact does not warrant what we experienced because we are obviously not children. The host asked us if we need three adult menus and not children menus. This was rude and unwarranted and if it weren't my first time at the restaurant, I would've left immediately. Other than this it was a very nice restaurant with relatively good ambiance. read more

Possibly the worst Olive Garden I have ever been to. The service is the speed of a snail. The stuff needs to be reminded over 4 times to bring out refills on drinks and bread sticks. We went on a Saturday the place was not at all busy. Yet, we saw no food coming out for over an hour. The place seems like it's training restaurant. The place seemed clean. The silverware didn't seem too clean. I would definitely never go back to this location. Overall... Food: 8/10 Service: 1/10 Parking: 6/10 Atmosphere: 5/10 read more

We had an okay time. It had been a while since we went to OG and we remember why now. The salad and breadsticks were great. Fresh salad and warm, flavorful breadsticks. However, the pasta was just okay. We got the all you can eat. My first order had the wrong sauce but it was okay. Tried a few more after and the bowls get smaller. Makes sense but it was a dollop of sauce in the subsequent dishes. Our server was nice but didn't stop by much towards the end. Had to wait and flag him to get boxes for leftovers. Okay experience but not in a rush to go back. read more

Service was absolutely terrible, to go manager and staff not doing anything except for being on their phones when people have to go orders. Then give a huge attitude when we have to come in and get the food like they're working hard at all. Garbage place and service. read more

Date of visit: December 21, 2022 When we had a need to celebrate two coworkers that were leaving the organization, one of them suggested Olive Garden as their send off meal. It wouldn't have been my choice, but since it wasn't my swan song, I said nothing. I was pleasantly surprised at the entire experience (except their website behaving oddly when I selected delivery) for the pickup order. Everything was ready at the time I selected, the order was accurate and everyone enjoyed the food immensely. I did have to ask for leftover containers but those were provided without complaint. The dedicated spots for pick up made getting the food to my vehicle a breeze, too. If you need to feed a large group, you could certainly do worse than Olive Garden! read more

This was the worst dining experience I have ever had. Me and my family, which in total was a party of eight people dined at this restaurant. Not only were the staff unfriendly, but so were the customers dining in the restaurant. We were met with nasty looks like we did not belong there. It took about 30 minutes for us to even put in our drink orders and another 15 to 20 minutes for them to arrive. We were sat at the table around 5:40 PM and we left the restaurant close to 8 PM. After leaving the restaurant every single family member that ate was vomiting and experiencing explosive diarrhea. I would not recommend this place to my worst enemy. read more

We recently went to Olive garden and got seated right away. The salad and breadsticks came out very fast and tasted fresh. The waitress we had was very nice, but she didn't come back very often to check on us. I have gotten the minestrone many times before and it was great as always. Overall had a pretty good experience here! read more

This establishment was very satisfying. Walking in we were welcomed with beautiful Italian music that made us feel as though we might actually be in Italy. We had a short wait and were greeted with a compliment by our server. The food was marvelous, we both all you can eat soup and salad. We highly recommend the Olive Garden on Bluemound! read more

Wrote a poem about my most recent experience at OG. At Olive Garden on Bluemound Road, A cozy meal, a pleasant abode. With garlic bread and pasta fine, I dined and laughed, I sipped my wine. Yet midway through, I felt the call, To the men's room, down the hall. Expecting peace, a brief retreat, From the lively chatter, a quiet beat. But as the door swung open wide, A pungent scent did not abide. A heavy musk, of urine stale, A scent so strong, it told a tale. It clung to walls, it filled the air, A ghostly whisper, everywhere. A stark contrast to the dining cheer, A sudden shock, unpleasant, clear. The smell of piss, both old and rank, In the men's room, it firmly sank. A blemish on the evening's grace, A sour note in such a place. read more

AWFUL, worst experience iv had Olive garden. took almost a whole 30 mins just to receive Drinks. would Not come back

Had a great salad and good bread sticks at Olive Garden. It went downhill from there. I know better though, Olive Garden does not make pasta al dente. For this meal it was just mush. I did not eat it. The marinara sauce was watery tasted canned, yuck. Probably just me, I'm Italian. I make pasta and sauce. Learned from my Ma. She learned from my Grandma. Grandma actually made pasta from scratch, even cutting the dough with a knife! Not no fancy pancy pasta maker ;) Once I had Chef Boyardee pasta, out of a can. It was kind of like that, but not as good. I ordered the chicken parm. I'm pretty sure it was chicken. Consistency of pressed chicken nuggets. No grain in the meat, like a Tyson's frozen patty. Came very hot and crispy. But tasted like chicken. I didn't care for it. To be fair, I've have some pretty good meals at Olive Garden. But this was not one of them. read more

This is really a shoutout to our waitress, Kayla. It was a busy night, they were short-handed, and my group had about 20 people in it. On top of that, almost of all of us wanted separate checks (yours truly included). Despite all that pressure, Kayla kept her spirits about her. You could see a smile on her face under that mask and a friendliness in her voice. Our food order took a while, but that could be due to a shortened staff. Manager brought out some bread sticks right away to help fight the hunger pains. I ordered the chicken marsala and really enjoyed it. There was enough to bring back leftovers, which were very good the second time around. Overall a positive experience. read more

Nah, guys, why is a plate of alfredo $23... It's just too much. I wanted to give you a chance, but tell me why salmon at a nice restaurant is $20, and you're charging me $23 for some noodles and canned sauce. read more

Dominic was a great server. I don't even write reviews he was just that good. Really polite and generous. He never kept us waiting and the best service I've had in a really long time. Food was really good too and the never ending pasta bowl has great value read more

We had a party of 6 and a 6 month old celebrating her shots for a lunch time visit. This restaurant looks like every other location I've been to same floor plan nice decorations. The parking lot was full we parked in the back side lot. We were quickly seated and drink orders were taken. Since it was a cold, a 38 degree spring day. It was nice to order the soup, sticks and salad. And it was quickly delivered. The soup an b sticks was very good the salad was average. Service was a little spread out, but they did well covering for each other to take care of the drink refills and food. Total bill was around $54 + 14 tip. We were well satisfied, no complaints, comparing this to other OG's they are above average. read more

Food was decent, nothing to brag about. Server was very good. Not my choice to eat here ever but didn't have too many choices. If I never went to an Olive Garden ever again that'd be just fine read more

Let me start by stating this was not my first time here. As a young one my family would dine here once in a while. Unfortunately the quality has slipped to new lows. The complete lack of flavor and creativity was lulling me to sleep. The service was just ok. We heard a different server give two very different sob stories looking for a sympathetic tip. The scampi had undercooked asparagus stems, undercooked shrimp, and a flavorless sauce. There were no salt or pepper shakers so I relied on the only reason this isn't a one star review, the garlic breadsticks. They were the only source of flavor brought to our table. I will not be returning nor recommending this to anyone. read more

My friend Jane and I had a great dining experience at the Brookfield Olive Garden last Saturday night. Our waitress Rachel was friendly and very efficient in getting our food delivered to us while piping hot and fresh, and in making sure we had plenty of the unlimited opening course. Chef Cam prepared our food perfectly do that everything was delicious. I had the spaghetti with meat sauce plus added Italian sausage as my entree and I highly recommend it as a delicious choice. I had enough left over to provide a great lunch the next day. read more

The hostess said our 3 person party would be a 35-45 minute wait. there were multiple parties main thing in the entry. We were told we cannot go by the bar tables to eat. If we wanted we could sit at the bar top and eat. The restaurant did not have many people sitting at tables. Only a handful of tables were occupied. The entire east side of the restaurant was empty. Every time I try to eat here the hostess says there is a 45 -60 minutes wait. I will not be coming back. read more

I had a very bad waitress plus every other time I have been here there was always some issue with service. Food was ok but nothing special. Decor is outdated and needs a refresh. I compare it to Mcdonalds if they had dine in Italian food. I'm guessing the people who love this place haven't had real Italian food. read more

We have been coming to this location Olive Garden for over 15years and have never experienced the service that I received tonight. The assistant manager by the name of "Sue" was very rude and was unwelcoming to our 6 year old daughter who has autism. She said we should keep her home next time as if my daughter didn't deserve to eat at a restaurant because she had trouble sitting still. I am appalled that they would hire someone like this and I will be taking it up with guest relations in the morning. This is not a reflection of the restaurant as a whole as the general manager is a very nice person. And so are the staff for the most part. But be advised if you have a child with any form of disability and decide to go to this location in Brookfield wi. I hope you don't experience this manager on duty by the name of SUE. read more

Worst experience with curbside pick up I arrived at scheduled time checked in and waited 20 minutes called to see what the hold up was then put on hold for 5 more minutes. Man was rude just shoved bag thru the window with no apology or acknowledgement. Arrive home no utensils as requested no mints and one salad was brown with 3 little ends of tomato with the core it was inedible. The alfredo dish was good but very small portion. I will never order curbside from them again! Much better service inside. read more

We called ahead... wouldn't take our name... got there... no one in the waiting area and was quoted 45 minutes... high school friends of the front hosts were granted seats right away. We waited 45 min (not two hours) while at least 20 people left after hearing how long the wait was... I walked through the restaurant and found over 18 tables open on one side alone... a waiter walked up to the hosts and asked for a table bc he didn't have anyone to wait on... finally a lovely waitress saw our kids were starving and no one else was waiting, so she asked for the front to give us a table... they are probably losing 40% of potential business bc of the front hosts... my opinion. I'll be going to Menomonee Falls from now on bc they hustle. read more

I don't think I've ever experienced worse customer service than I did here. No exaggeration. A group I am in has an annual tradition of doing a "girls night" dinner at this Olive Garden, and I was in charge of organizing the event. For context, our group was around 20 people. This restaurant does not take reservations. However, in the past, our group has called the restaurant to ensure they could take us, and they told us when we could come that night. Each previous year I've done this event, we've only had to wait around 15 minutes to be seated. I did the same exact thing this year. I called in the morning, and the employee told me he could take my group at 6:00 that night, no problem. Then, at 5:45, when my entire group was waiting at my house, ready to get into cars and go, I called the restaurant again to confirm that everything was still good with taking us at 6:00. The employee on the phone was rude and bluntly said "we might be able to take you at 8:15". I explained multiple times that we had called earlier and they said they'd have a table ready for us at 6, and all the employee said was "you can come at 8:15." They offered no apologies and no attempt to make the situation right. We were unable to wait until 8:15, so this made the evening a nightmare, calling six different restaurants until there was finally one who could take us. Why make a promise to customers and not follow through? I would bet what went wrong was miscommunication on part of the first employee. Even so, the employee and manager later did absolutely nothing to rectify the situation for me, nor did they offer any apology for their mistake. It's been 6 months since this experience. A once a month dinner at Olive Garden used to be a family tradition for me, but I haven't been back since this happened. read more
