The waiter Travis is amazing. He was so kind and thoughtful. The food came out quick and delicious. We love coming here. But Travis is the best waiter we've gotten! read more

Yes, they are a chain. But most chains started out as a successful mom and pop. Regardless, Olive Garden does it right and does it right every time for my wife and me. She--without fail--gets the salmon. This time I got the lasagna. I like the Tour, cheese ravioli, chicken or egg plant parmigiana. Of course, the salad. So refreshing. Service is always good. This location is designed to look like an Italian villa. Olive Garden--always a go to. 5* = A top favorite. Mind-blowing good. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime of my money. 4* = Outstanding. Top-tier. Some elements not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business. 3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient, the only option, the only one in its category, or on a whim, but would not be among the first thing to come to mind. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it. 2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money. 1* = How are they still in business? Stay away at all costs! read more

The food was actually not the problem. Though the chicken in the fettuccine Alfredo was sad and the appearance of the dish was awful. There was just such chaotic service. I think our waiter was very new to the job and seemed confused and overwhelmed the whole time. Even though I don't usually go to Olive Garden I have fun memories of it feeling like a generous and warm experience. It was so chaotic that it didn't feel like that at all. I hadn't been to an OG in 15 years and now I think I can wait another 15. read more

Poor service. And the food looks like someone left over. Ordered calamari and found some calamari mixed with source and some are fried. The source cup also looks like being used. We point out the issues with server and she just brings away the plate with attitude. No bread at the table. read more

Good food, atmosphere and service. I love how the meals come with unlimited soup or salad and you can't go wrong either. The salad is good with the best dressing. The soups are delicious. My favorite soup is the chicken & gnocchi. My 2 favorite meals are the fettuccine alfredo and I also love the eggplant parmesan. My only complaint is I don't like how none of their pastas come with meat. You have to add on meat for an extra charge and it's not a couple of bucks. It's like 5 bucks. read more

Service was poor and not just ours all of the ones around us. No clearing of dirty plates and server was no where to be found

I don't know if I just have had more restaurant exposure since the last time I've been here, or if Olive Garden is just going downhill. I'm sad and disappointed to be writing this review as I used to love coming here. We arrived and were seated within 5 minutes or so which lead me to believe it wasn't busy. Lots of empty tables. But the service did not flow as if it was not busy. Our appetizer arrived promptly along with 3 breadsticks, and our respective soup and salad. The salad was super lackluster, very watery and huge abundant pieces of purple onion, which usually I'm a fan of, but this was overkill. It took quite a while for our main entrees to arrive. And maybe it's my personal opinion, but I think the main course should be accompanied by another round of breadsticks. Ours was not. To be honest my food didn't taste fresh to me. I was let down. When we arrived and told them we were celebrating our anniversary the waitress told us she would put in an order for a special occasion dessert, for one reason or another that never arrived. We didn't want to stay more time there so we just left instead of asking about it. We were also out of our drinks for a large part of the meal and I feel like that isn't good service. Other than when we asked for something we saw our waitress twice. It's hard to be attentive to your table's needs when you don't pay attention to your table. We probably won't be back. I can get better service at the multiple places just down the road. read more

The consistency of preparation and taste at this location keeps me coming back. Food was served hot and at the same time for our party of six, while drinks and bread sticks were stocked regularly before we even hit the final one. The restaurant was packed yet clean. With arguably the most demanding order on the menu (unlimited salad and soup), Jada handled the constant back and forth deliveries with aplomb and a smile on her face. Very much on top of our status at the table at all times, she was pleasant, helpful, and accurate. Will ask for her again. Olive Garden, just a note: live up to your namesake and find a way to put more than two measly olives in a huge salad bowl. It wouldn't kill anyone's bottom line to get four or five. Thanks. read more

Me and my two daughters ate here yesterday worst service worst food ever I almost said screw Olive Garden completely but it wasn't Olive Garden entirely it was just this one. I paid the $70 for our tab and still gave the server a $5 tip but we will never be goin back here read more

This Olive Garden is amazing! It still has the old look that has the cute Italian street ambience instead of the corporate modern look. Service was 10/10 we came in with a large group and were seated in 15min. All the food tasted great and both our servers stayed on top of all of our orders. Probably my favorite Olive Garden I've been to tbh read more

We've been to this location a couple of times. We've had great service both times. I love the decor of this location. It has such a great Tuscan feel, more than a typical Olive Garden. Food is as to be expected with any Olive Garden, we really like it and it's consistently good. read more

Yes, we get many Olive Garden gift cards from family and friends, but we do love patronizing our local Olive Garden, regardless. It's always good food, and always excellent service. This time was no different. We went there again late last June for an early dinner...and were waited on by Karson. We always love the Italian salad and breadsticks...but those damn yellow pepperoncini (which generally I adore) are just waaaay too salty! Yuck. But I digress. The salad and breadsticks were de-lish, and my wife ordered cheese ravioli while I did the create-your-own pasta...with angel hair, the creamy mushroom sauce (think mushroom alfredo), and a side of two Italian sausages. My wife loved hers, and I only like mine. I love the concept of angel hair and mushroom Alfredo...but this came to me as something that was verrrrrrry heavy, thick, and well, did I say heavy? It tasted good, but as it cooled the pasta hardened up like edible concrete and the whole dish became extra tough. I ate about half of it and one sausage...and saved the rest as leftovers. A few days later I finished it but I put a good amount of fresh Alfredo on it to loosen things up. It was better the second time honestly. For dessert, we enjoyed the Italian Doughnuts with raspberry sauce. They came out smoking hot...but was awesome. Karson did a fantastic job taking care of our needs and refills...and was awarded with a nice tip. Again, FOUR Stars for good food and excellent service. Just ask that Trent the manager to address the freshness of the pasta (angel hair) and not have it come out so heavy...oh, and replace those super salty yellow pepperoncini's in the salad! read more

The service was slow. The food was ok. Our dining experience was ruined when they sat a loud18-person party next to our table. What a waste of $70. read more

I love The Olive Garden. Their food is so yummy! You can't go wrong with the breadsticks dipped in the Alfredo sauce! They are especially good when they are fresh! The chicken gnocchi soup is my absolute favorite! Lasagna is my usual entry and is always delicious. Hubby always gets some sort of seafood Alfredo. Yum! read more

The front desk guy told us the wait was over an hour. We checked in online and it said 15 minutes. If you want guests to dine in, give appropriate wait times. Terrible service read more

Brandi was an amazing server that provided a great experience! My friend and I went for a long meal and we had a lovely time talking and eating comfort food. I'm sure most people know what to expect with Olive Garden - it's not top-tier Italian but sometimes you just need some warm breadsticks, good pasta and a boat of Alfredo. All our food came out great, and we had a wonderful meal in this restaurant. read more

I would like to notice the server OZ. I am amazed at how he was so cordial and friendly and very aware of the needs of his patrons. I rate a restaurant usually on DRINKS and how much they recover the empty glasses. He FORESAW my drinks and brought me an EXTRA glass. That is amazing. Really Really Good Service is a dying thing. But our dear friend Oz is keeping it alive. He also brought our food to us promptly and it was HOT and Delicious. This is why we will be returning again. The man in the BIG hat. read more

Yesterday my friend and I ate at the Sugarhouse location . Service was good however, my food was with chicken and couldn't eat a piece without some kind of gristle and had to put it in a paper napkin. The fettuccine was delicious. I let the waiter know to tell the cooks and he said it was made somewhere else. I don't think I'll have anything there again with chicken. Disappointed! read more

I want to give a shout out to this Olive Garden. I went there yesterday with my friends for a retirement celebration. The manager was great, he gave us free appetizers to start our celebration. The service and food was great. Then I got a free dessert. I would recommend this place for any occasion. read more

The food was awful. Horribly cooked, freezer burned, air fried and tasted like school cafeteria food. The service was not good as she was very annoyed to be there and was rude. The ambiance and scenery of the restaurant was super nice and enjoyable. We're all sick now after eating here read more

Yummy as always. My kids loved to choose from the kids menu. We went for lunch and the food was fresh. The service was friendly. My daughter even loved the broccoli!! read more

Imagine having a 20 minute wait for a table, after waiting, and starving, your little buzzer goes off, and you're on your way to your table...way in the back of the restaurant. As you pass by large tables filled with large families you hear people singing Happy Birthday, kids screaming, babies crying, and the acoustic are really good in here because everyone was talking so LOUD. We had a really good waitress despite it being crazy busy. After looking at the new menu, I really didn't see anything that looked appetizing. I just ordered the soup. I had intentions of ordering something to go, so I could eat it for lunch tomorrow, but I didn't. The bread stick were cooked perfect, and were even warm right out of the oven. The soup not so much. I got a second bowl of soup but couldn't eat it. It was just an off night tonight. read more

Wow, wow, wow! Savanna's service was incredible. She was quick, remembered our orders, and was on top of our table. We will be coming back and asking for her. Wonderful experience! read more

Had the shrimp alfredo, with unlimited salad and breadsticks. Wasn't bad but for the price of the entree I'd much rather go to a more interesting restaurant. Spiked strawberry lemonade was okay but you get such a small amount that it's not really worth it. Breadsticks were good, maybe worth going just to get an appetizer and breadsticks. read more

The customer service here is very terrible! I went in to try and buy some food, and the female employees taking my order was very rude when I was trying to find something under $13.30 to order. And they made me feel like a cheap customer because I didn't order something on the higher priced menus. read more

This olive garden experience was amazing. Everything about it was super fab. Our waitress, Sarah was one of the best waitresses I have ever had. She was quick friendly and attentive. The warm Italian donuts and breadsticks are DELICIOUS The chicken and shrimp spaghetti carbonara was also really good. The restrooms were also very clean. This is one of the best restaurants in Sandy. I highly recommend. read more

If you're seated at the bar, don't count on getting your food in a timely manner. Nor in a logical manner. We sat down and ordered our food right away. We didn't need time to think. One person ordered a meal with soup and salad, one person ordered just the soup and salad, then 2 kids meals, and sodas. A few minutes later the meal was brought out (but none of the soups, salad, breadsticks nor drinks). 10 minutes later, the soups and waters were brought. I reminded a different server about our missing soda and breadsticks. So a few minutes later she brought those to us. 5 breadsticks for our party of 6 people. So we requested more breadsticks. They took 10 minutes. We requested more breadsticks and a soda refill, it took another 10 minutes. The next time we requested more breadsticks, after 8 minutes I got up and asked at the desk for online orders if I could get some more breadsticks because our server was being so slow. They gave me some right away. When our server brought us breadsticks, he claimed they were in the oven. But the sticks he brought us were not hot like they just came out of the oven. The only reason I gave 2 stars was because the food was good. Zero stars for our server. read more

This was a great experience. We came for lunch on a Monday with our children. Our server Mitch was very patient with our kids and considerate of our needs. The food was great. Very good experience. Cannot think of anything that would have made this a better lunch. The manager checked on our table twice. Restaurant was clean. Mitch was training another server, and I heard him as they were away from our table give her positive feedback and encouragement. Positive environment. read more

Ordered a salad to go. I gave them 40 minutes to put a salad in a bag and bring it out. I got there when they said to be there and I still have to wait 10 minutes for them to bring the order out, and that was because I called to find out what's going on. This isn't the first time the service has been this sad at this location. In the end the breadsticks were cold and hard and the salad was filled half as much as it used to be. Clearly my order had been sitting on the counter for a while. The only thing good I could say about the experience was that the server was nice. read more

Never thought I'd write a 5 star review for an Olive Garden but dang, here I am! We had a bunch of gift cards and felt like trying our luck at Olive Garden.... I think more people need to write positive reviews because I have had many Olive Garden experiences and this one by far deserves a 5 star for a chain restaurant, and this Sandy location deserves a 5 star. The girls at the front desk checked us in, she was super sweet and quotes us a 30 min wait-- we only waited 15 mins, and they were busy! Super impressed. Our waiter was great too, and he was slammed. Very attentive, I wish I got his name but he was great. The food was amazing and the portions, big as always, so I have dinner tomorrow read more

This is our first time at this location. The location is beautiful inside and this is the largest location I've seen in Utah. Our waitress was very kind, attentive, and had some great recommendations. The food came quickly and was delicious. I am excited that their iced teas and lemonades are never ending. Their sauces are as well now! We love getting the Alfredo sauce with our breadsticks. I would recommend this location! read more

Wow. This is truly the best Olive Garden experience of my life. Jasper was a godlike waiter. If Edward Cullen from Twilight had a personality and sense of humor that would be Jasper. He was SO attentive! Got us everything we needed and even recommended dessert and was honest about his menu opinions with us. Highly recommend--Jasper and the Olive Garden! read more

For a Saturday night there was hardly a wait and food came out super fast! Waitress was good and refills were fast. (Actually entrees came same time as appetizers and we had half our salads still) Avoid the shrimp or seafood Alfredo! Not good , shrimp was just off, actually hard to even eat rest of pasta after the bad fishy shrimp. Should had stayed with tour of Italy or the soup & salad! For how spendy the seafood Alfredo is getting, I was pretty disappointed. read more

They don't have the original menu due to covid so make sure you call ahead and ask what they have before you get your hopes up. I did the curb side pickup. The staff member came and placed the food on the back seat of my car. I paid over the phone so didn't exchange anything. read more

Olive Garden is a classic chain of Italian restaurants where here, you're family. ;) The service was good and the food was good. I ordered the taste of Italy which is three items, lasagna and chicken Parm and fettuccine Alfredo. The Alfredo chicken was good and so was the grits Lasagna app. read more

Another January 20th, another trip to Olive Garden (see my first review below). Same story this year. Raspberry lemonade (per tradition) and now we're sticking to the soup-salad-breadstick lunch. To be honest, I don't have any complaints about that deal. It all hinges on prompt service, and most of the Olive Garden serving folk are nothing if not prompt and bubbly. So we got several bowls of soup, a little salad, and mopped up with the 'sticks. That's the plan from here on out on the 20th. SSB lunch, some of that guilty pleasure sugar sweet raspberry lemonade, and the tradition lives on. read more
