Today wasnt the best day. I get that the waiter is new, but the way the food came out all at one time, was less than desirable. We have a table full of plates, so naturally a passing waiter asked if we wanted her to take something. We said "we just got all of this! So no" Then, my kid grabbed thier little iPad on the table and started playing games while we waited. When i asked for the bill, there was a 3 dollar charge for "games."²1 read more

The food was sooooo good there's something abt dipping that Alfado sauce and server was Zack he was really funny lighted up the mode and was really polite it was ok for the ambiance was good not to quite but not too load overall great experience read more

The food was so good! I love their Five Cheese Ziti al Forno. It took a little while to get our waters, but our server was really nice. I believe her name was Shelley. We also bought the $6 Take Home entrées and accidentally forgot them, but we were able to go back and get them. read more

It's been several years since I commented on the Olive Garden. Thought we'd give it another try today. Avoided the wine and just got the meal, Chicken Marsala and we split it. Even then neither of us could finish the glob of "mashed potatoes" that were definitely instant. The sauce was just salty without much flavor. I don't know what they used to make the cheese cake, but it didn't have much flavor either. Olive Garden just keeps going down hill. Our server was most excellent though. I feel kinda sorry for the people who work there. It's still a nice place, but the food just gets worse and worse. So sad. read more

Server was nice so that is why I have 2 stars. My boyfriend and I came for the unlimited pasta. I got soup and pasta and so did he. I got 1 refill on my soup and it took over 20 minutes to get 1 refill on my pasta. I waited another 20 minutes for a refill on my drink. As a server I understand it's hard to get to everyone sometimes but we were just forgot about. Genuinely not worth it in the end I can make it at home for 1/2 the price I just didn't want the haste tonight. There was also hair in my pasta when I finally got my 1st refill after 20 minutes. What could improve is the service I just expected more considering how well the service is at the other locations. read more

Olive Garden Italian Restaurant - Hair - Italian Near Me - Derby, Kansas

We had a group of fifty in to celebrate aunt Mary's 100th birthday. The management was so accommodating, making sure everyone was taken care of, with plenty of staff to take orders, keep drinks and salad bowls filled, and get orders taken and delivered. The food came out as ordered, hot, and delicious!! Couldn't recommend more highly!! read more

it was great working there then they kept changing rules around to make better, drains always clog up and want us to fix it. We are not family if we all strangers it's a joke. read more

had an amazing server and food tasted immaculate was given extra mints and the wait time was only 7 minutes. It was very clean no dirt no bugs and gave a calming feel, only bad thing was i was shivering with how cold it is there. read more

Ordered soup on a Wednesday at 11:45 for Carside and they said it would be 12:50 that I could pick it up. Drove up in the parking lot at 12:20 there might be 20 people here then I called in and they said well it's not due until 12:50. Sat in the parking lot 5 min went in and there it sat on the counter. Ridiculous. I didn't order a 5 course meal for 6. It's soup for 2 people. Do better. read more

Our server was very nice and hooked us up with extra veggies like black olives in our salad! We had the unlimited soup and salad for $8.99. A great deal. My favorite soup is the Zuppa Tuscana. My husband likes the chicken gnocchi. We both love the breadsticks too. So soft and pack a lot of flavor. Very happy with our visit. read more

Food was good and great service but one big problem was that I wasn't told how small the lunch portion was. Here is a photo to explain, the small plate was the lunch portion pasta 7.99 Alfredo plus 2.99 to add chicken, compared to my friends regular sized pasta plate for 9.99 . read more

First experience when I moved here was take out the night we moved into our new home. We were celebrating. The problem was that our order was missing an entree, all the salads, and the dessert. I ordered at the bar to make sure it was done right. Got home and it was a disaster. Should have checked myself but trusted them. Manager made the extra items and gave us a gift card. Later found out the gift card was just $25. It was a $170 order originally. Thought that was a little light for having to drive back to the restaurant and missing eating with my family on our first night in Derby. Update- Take out meal was done correctly tonight with no errors. Maybe they have fixed it. Food was as ordered this time. read more

Stopped in 4/10/23, around 8:30. Asked for a seat away from some children that seemed to be unsupervised. So the hostess graciously moved us to another table. Our server, Caitlin, did a great job and the food was good. Just passing through town but we'll remember OG next time we're in the area. read more

I ordered to-go and was pleasantly surprised on how the runner greeted me and the food is spectacular. read more

Olive Garden Italian Restaurant - Chicken Tortalini alfredo with Crispy Chicken Fritta kids size. - Italian Near Me - Derby, Kansas

Went here for dinner with friends on a weekday night. Our waiter was very attentive- almost overly hovering. I ordered the Taste of Italy and enjoyed the lasagne and the fettuccini Alfredo very much. But the chicken Parmesan was simply overcooked and the crust was so dry it was hard to cut into. Also there was very little sauce to help it out. It was extremely salty. We had the feeling we were being rushed as the waiter sought very early on to take our plates and/or bring us boxes. There didn't appear to be people waiting to be seated so we didn't understand the rush- not blaming the waiter - it's probably something he was told to do. read more

We went to the Derby location last Friday. Everything was great from the soups, stuffed mushroom app, my chicken carbonara, Long Island to the service. In the past we have never been too excited about Olive Garden in general due to past visits to other locations, but this one: can't wait to go again. read more

Me and my wife went there and was told a booth was not available. We were seated in a very crowded dining room another pair came in after us and they were seated in a booth!! Not a good thing to see when we were told it was going to be a 15-20 minute wait for a booth. We have been coming here pretty regularly and this is the first time we were disappointed!!! I know there is a labor shortage but if part of your staff is to busy standing around the front talking maybe put them to work!! Also no server came to take our drink order. Do better not worse. read more

My lasagna was a little taste of commercialized Italy. The sausage was juicy and the sauce filled me with joy. I even received my free birthday tiramisu, which completed my OG experience. Our waitress was prompt and friendly. She helped us feel like a family, no matter how dysfunctional we may be. I was a bit concerned when a family member left and didn't returned, but the unlimited breadsticks kept coming so we didn't pay any mind to her leaving. Oh, and there was a kid screaming. Oh wait, that was ours too. All in all, it was a great experience! We'll be back soon. read more

Slow service, wilted lettuce, mealy soup, etc... Clearly a poorly managed restaurant. Should have just gone to Freddy's (burger joint) down the street. read more

Just had a wonderful meal of Chicken Alfredo pizza fritta & shrimp scampi, I love the salad here. Our waitress was very friendly, and attentive without making us feel rushed even though it was a holiday (Fathers day) and they were very busy. I love eating here. read more

We recently hosted the rehearsal dinner for our son's wedding at this location and couldn't be happier with our choice. They were extremely friendly and accommodating. We reserved the back room and they helped come up with a seating plan that kept all of us stay close together. May not seem like a big deal, but in our opinion it was just one less stress item checked off the list. They set up the tables and chairs and gave us plenty of time to decorate for the occasion. The staff was just so friendly, it added to the pleasantness of the evening. Our servers were enthusiastic and were happy to answer questions. Food was served not only promptly, but also with the right amount of time between courses so that you didn't feel rushed. The food was very good and we thought the portion sizes were just right. Thanks to Marcus for getting this set up and giving us some piece of mind. Thanks to Jim (I hope this is right) for coming up with the seating plan - it was great not having to give that any thought. And finally, thanks to our two servers (I'm so sorry I can't remember your names). You guys rocked! read more

I usually get the chicken Alfredo but I tried something new this time. I got the build your own pasta with angel pasta, garlic parmesan sauce and chicken and mushroom. Something different but I love the sauce very garlicky and flavorful. Instead of salad we got the chicken and gnocchi soup. It is very creamy and good. The service is always good here. read more

The server we had was fantastic! His name is Brady and he took care of all of our needs, knew his stuff about the dishes, he made offers of what drinks to go with our dishes. Over all between the food and the great staff we will for sure be coming back! read more

The service here was fucking terrible, my crippled legless uncle would have been faster, they don't understand how to cook a fucking steak, I don't know how you fuck up a steak. I asked for a medium well steak alfredo with a marinara substitute, I received a medium rare with alfredo, when the brought it back the fixed the pasta sauce but the steak was now well done. The waiter took nearly thirty minutes to come back and realize they fucked up again. They never gave my friends a refill on any drinks. And it was my little cousins birthday and they didn't even sing to her. read more

Wow...just bad all around. The appetizers tasted like old grease. The lasagna was almost as good as the frozen stuff you can buy at the grocery store. Our server was a nice kid but he had way too many tables to handle. read more

As all Olive Garden restaurants of course it has the delicious menu, I normally would absolutely love Olive Garden but this location seems to be a bit hit and miss. Sometimes I will go there and all of our food will be great, service is fine, and everything is perfect, other times I will go there though and the food is not cooked properly or even assembled with all the listed ingredients. All of that aside though I only have one real complaint about this location, I have consistently almost every other time I've gone to this location found a hair or several hairs in my food. I don't know what's behind it, but it's happened often enough that I stopped going a while back, that issue may be fixed now but it was such a problem that I probably won't return to this location anytime soon. read more

I know I'm writing this now, although this incident was on mothers day. We have been going to this Olive Garden since it opened.. VERY REGULARLY. Until This past mothers day, First Olive Garden is getting pretty chintzy Not doing anything special for special occasions, And I used a coupon That basically didn't do me any good , as I had to get a meal I actually didn't want , Because the first one I ordered was DISGUSTING!!! I have always ordered the Cheese Ravioli. This time it was the MOST DISGUSTING I have ever had. I could have done better buying it frozen and going home and making it myself. So Then I had to order a more expensive meal, so the coupon was useless at that point. Today is My 50th and We will be going to Olive Garden BUT not Derby. I'm praying for a better experience and meal. read more

Only good here was our server-I now remember why we don't come here. Sauces are bland, pasta was over cooked and the was place was busy??-no more for this Italian girl unless it's soup/salad! read more

One of the best spots in town for a good Italian bite to eat. Always dependable and delicious. My favorite waitress, Mary here always hooks me up with a large portion of bread sticks each refill, and even gives me a little bag to take some home. I used to come here with my grandma, but she recently passed which is why I gave it a 4 star review. read more

I usually love Olive Garden, but the 'Specials' weren't that great. My daughter & i both ordered one of their specials -- was wishing that we had stuck to the 'Tour of Italy"!! read more

I awoke at midnight in a frenzy, I could feel those cold, wet, empty carbs running across my thighs. I thought the horror had ended once I left the restaurant, but macaroni phalange persisted. I was confused, oblivious to what was really going on, when it hit me...I was touched by a noodle. Fake Italian will never be the same. Eggplants run amuck, tomatoes gone wild, cheese that has become more than just a mold. I will never be the same. That is all. read more

Great location. Always clean, staff is always polite, food is always fresh and tasty. Great for family dinners.

Contrary to other reviews this Olive Garden is well managed and is delicious. Just tried a new special the other day and it was very good. Soup and salad is great as will and they are pretty quick with the takeout. If you like Olive Garden elsewhere you will love it here too! read more

Had the shrimp scampi which I get almost every time. Tasted terrible within 5 hours started to feel very sick went to the doctor and was told I had food poisoning after blood work read more

Terrible! A staff member stole my phone then after calling it, it was "found in the trash can in the kitchen" just absolutely the worst. We had to call the police, the staff was extremely rude before and after the incident as well. DO NOT GO! read more

Slipping lately, the portions are shrinking and the quality seems to be diminishing. The staff is good and trying hard. I think the changes are Darden driven. read more

The first few months they WERE open the service and food were just okay. The last 2 times we went the food was excellent and the service was even better. I was very impressed. Our waiter and even another came over and talked with my daughters and were so nice, the one who wasn't even working our section went to the back and took photos of the kitchen and was telling the girls how it worked. Above and beyond! read more

First off, Olive Garden couldn't be any further from real Italian food. I ordered their shrimp and chicken carbonara, without the chicken. If you have ever been to Italy, you'll know there isn't shrimp or chicken in it, but I figured I'd give it a shot. Carbonara is an almost dried out sauce when it's properly cooked. However, the wannabe cooks at this restaurant served me undercooked shrimp, and a soupy sauce with spaghetti, and bacon in it. Oh, and an over abundance of red bell pepper, another ingredient Italians don't use a lot of. It was the most disgusting "Italian" meal I have ever had. Your brand and recipes are garbage. Send your chefs (I'll call them short order cooks) to Italy to learn a thing or two. read more
