    Staff was very nice and the pasta was so good! I got the all you can eat pasta with the four cheese sauce

    Taken before, you can tell how excited he was and how much he loves Olive Garden and yall couldn't even do anything special for his birthday

    Our waiter was awesome he made up for a lot of the other issues we faced, my boyfriends favorite restaurant is Olive Garden I would totally take him to a fancier place but this is literally his favorite, I called and made a reservation stating it was for his birthday, when we arrived the two hosts didn't even greet us, super rude from the beginning I told them we had a reservation, she said happy birthday and didn't mention that detail to our waiter so he didn't know it was his birthday at all, once we were getting the check I mentioned the birthday cake and he didn't even know so he said we can take it to go, not really the best but it was fine, on top of that I'm vegan and adding vegetable option is so overpriced you pay 3$ per veggie that is honestly the price for a whole bundle of broccoli, meat and cheese options are so much more expensive yet they are charging the most for the cheapest options in the store, regardless we were full. I just hate spending money with rude hosts and no regard for someone's special day, I could have spent my money elsewhere and we chose to spend a birthday at Olive Garden. Won't be spending a birthday there again.

    Craving pasta it's been a while since I've been to olive garden. Our service was great. The breadsticks were cold.. my shrimp carbonara was extremely tasty full of flavor but what scared me was thinking if the restaurant was this dirty.... what does the kitchen look like ??? Not pictured is the filthy walls

    Anthony was so great! Very attentive and friendly. Best service we've had at any Olive Garden ever. He needs a raise! Food was delicious as always also.

    Steve was the best server ever at Olive Garden ever! Everyone else should be fired and he should own Olive Garden!

    Literally trash. Unlimited soup, salad, and breadsticks? More like, limited. Horrible service. Made me very upset.

    It's been a few years since we last ate at Ristorante Di Pompello and we were not disappointed. We…read morewere there on a Sunday and ordered their dinner for two at a cost of $39.95. It was fantastic!! We got an appetizer, two salads, two entrees and a dessert. Everything we ate was absolutely delicious. The portions were hot and generous (brought left overs home) and the service was amazing. We highly recommend Ristorante Di Pompello and will be back the next time we are in Troutdale.

    The service here is genuinely a highlight, quick, warm and attentive. You can tell the staff takes…read morepride in making guests feel welcome and for that this place earns real points. That said, the food has some catching up to do. The complimentary bruschetta is a nice touch in concept but the execution falls flat. The bread is a basic sourdough with a thin, uneven drizzle of olive oil and herbs. Some pieces arrived nearly bare. A little more care and consistency here would go a long way. For my entrée I tried a salmon pasta special. The salmon itself had a lovely texture, which gave me hope but the sauce threw everything off. It was oddly sweet which clashed with what should have been a savory balanced dish. It's not bad enough to send back but it's not something I'd order again. Overall, this spot has a solid foundation with its friendly and efficient service. It was a pleasant enough experience but don't come with sky-high expectations for the plate.

    Everything we ordered was top-notch. I went with my parents for their 54th wedding anniversary. I…read morehad not been here in 10 years, and they had never been. We started by splitting a mixed lettuce salad and the burrata. The salad was fresh and had a great dressing. The burrata with the strawberries was mouth-watering. We also had some fresh focaccia bread, and it was so good. Then came the goat-cheese pappardelle and the fettuccine with clams. Both pastas were fabulous. If I had to choose one, the goat cheese was my favorite. My parents and I don't drink alcohol, so we got ginger, soda, and mocktails, which were very refreshing. The service was really good. The place was busy, but the servers seemed very relaxed and proficient. They weren't pushy, but they were there when we needed them and were all very polite. I love the ambiance. It is a large, light, and bright space. There is seating inside and out, and it has very high ceilings. I love the massive bar where you can watch the bartenders make drinks and the wood-fired pizza oven--also a nice touch. My parents had a great time on their anniversary, and we will definitely be back.

    I loved Nostrana. I've gone for years but never again. 32…read moredollars for vegetarian pasta (eggplant and shelling peas) 22 dollars for Burrata and tomato with balsamic. And then the real kicker....a 22% tip added in. I did my research and have been told the servers don't get this and they then suggest an additional tip. 1. If this James Beard award winning restaurant can't afford to take care of their employees I would question their business practices. 2. Reconsider your markup. It's insane. You already make quite a lot on your wine and cocktails in this economy is it wise to egregiously gouge people on food? Especially pasta? 3. The heart and soul of this place is the waitstaff. Sadly the management is not treating them right. No more Nostrana for me. Such a shame.
