I was hungry and pressed for time, but I knew just the place to curve the hunger. None other than Olive Garden for their never-ending soup, salad, and breadsticks! Every time I order pasta from here, I always end up, bringing it home so I recently just started ordering the soup and salad option so I can enjoy two bowls of chicken gnocchi happily. I also ordered the Italian donuts with the chocolate sauce and every bite was a fluffy, chocolatey dream. Thank you to our server for the pleasant and quick service. We were in and out in less than 45 minutes, full and happy, and ready to go for a last-minute shopping trip in the area. read more

M spouse called a week prior and ordered a large amount of pasta (party trays) over the phone. At no point in time did the employee asked for payment at all. Fast forward on the day of pick up on June 6 not one employee said an order was placed for the name stated. I was very upset and frustrated that not all employees knew that the order had to be pre paid or paid in full for it to generate a guaranteed receipt. I had to wait for the order to cook, while all my guests at my daughter's birthday party stood by. I had placed my trust with Olive Garden Kapolei on my daughter's special day, which I should off conducted business elsewhere! She was not happy at all! In the end we had spent over $400.00 which felt wasn't even worth it with all that negative service. read more

We love the Fettuccine Alfredo with Shrimp and Broccoli with extra Alfredo sauce. This is our go to dish at the Olive Garden. It's so good that it's difficult to impossible to order anything else. Get the unlimited dipping sauce / Alfredo sauce is a must for your dish and breadstick dipping. The food is always good and the service is friendly. Ask for the bar seating when busy, you could get lucky and skip the wait. The bartenders are very polite and friendly. We devour the food before realizing that we should take a photo or two of the dishes. Get your Italian fix at the Olive Garden. read more

Our server, Charles, was so nice and took really good care of us. Our food was great as usual. I definitely recommend going here and requesting Charles to be your server. read more

Carb cravings... Since I was in the area I decided to give them a visit as it's been quite some time that I've been to Olive Garden and this Kamakana Alii location is nice as it's not totally part of the mall and with lots of free parking just steps away it was a nice and convenient to give them a visit. Walking in I was surprised to see how filled they were and though that there would be a long wait but to my surprise they also have outdoor seating which is actually better as it's not as noisy inside and it was rather more cooler and nice but I was seated right at the service door as it creaked with every swing it got quite annoying. Ordering food I decided with the create your own which was Rigatoni with Five Cheese Marinara and added broccoli which also comes with never ending soup or what I chose is salad along with breadsticks the salad was absolutely delicious as I do love the toppings but the breadsticks were meh no olive oil or balsamic vinegar it didn't do much for me and here's my pasta looking like it was made in a cafeteria blanched pasta topped with a scoop of sauce an topped with blanched broccoli...what a sad presentation it tasted okay nothing it wasn't even hot or spectacular and my server came to check on me once as she was busy but she was very nice and polite but just the very basic just like their food. I remember why I don't come here as often though I do love the decor and vibe the food needs much improvement...just come for the salad and chill out at the lanai. Thanks! read more

The food taste was amazing got the Alfredo with broccoli as well as the appetizers, got the calamari and the spinich dip. The short of 5 star review was because for some odd reason they ran out of lemons. But other than that I have no complaints read more

Since 2013 I been watching commercials for this restaraunt. My first time there today, on Mother's Day. Even though I will never know the joys of being a mother, did get to enjoy the fancy soups and the breadsticks of love. Ashtyn was our server. Kind, polite, and a part of this new generation of human which are calmer and collected moreso than my generation. Mahalo from Moniz family. read more

Food was average. Spaghetti and salad. Was soup and salad last time. Serve here is super slow. Do not expect drink refills. Servers all walk around like the hate even being there. Tried twice. Now we done. Giving a three cause to food was at least ok. Serve is a zero read more

I love this location and come on a weekday because weekends are busy. I usually don't like waiting long if I am hungry. Wait isn't bad depending on when you come here. Pasta is delicious and drinks are good as well. My favorite drinks are the flavored teas. So good and refreshing. I like the spaghetti and the eggplant Parmesan. My two favorite items to order. Service is okay and waiters here are nice. Ambiance is very descent with the smell of pasta in the air. Definitely worth coming here if you enjoy pasta. Everything here is good even the appetizers. Plenty of parking up front which is attached to the mall. read more

Enjoy coming here once in a while but it seems like prices have gone up. I was sooo excited to come here when i saw the "Kids eat free". But the total was still over $100 for 2 adults. My partner and I were talking about the price & I just remembered paying under $100 for 2 entrees and 2 appetizers just last year ... It's a hit or miss with this place. Sometimes food is good and other times, it's salty. read more

Great Meal & Fantastic Service! We had a wonderful dinner at Olive Garden! The food was exactly what we needed--the salad was fresh, the breadsticks were warm, and the pasta was delicious. The highlight of our night, however, was when Chance the manager came personally to ask how we were doing. He made us feel special! We will definitely choose this Olive Garden location on our next pasta craving! read more

I normally enjoy Olive Garden and have had plenty of good meals here, so this review is specific to the lasagna. It was very disappointing. The dish was warm, but it did not taste freshly baked. There was no browned top, no crust, no crisp edges, and the overall texture felt flat and unappealing. On top of that, it had an odd aftertaste. I still like the restaurant, but I would definitely skip the lasagna. read more

Added our name to the waitlist & instantly received a text giving us an estimated wait time of 30 minutes. To our surprise it was quicker than that! Seating is a bit tight & tables are somewhat close to each other in the indoor dining room. A handful of booths but majority are freestanding tables. Plenty of choices on the menu, decent adult drink choices also. Service here was great as well! Quick, efficient, friendly. And this place is friendly on your pocketbook! read more

We went to Olive Garden for the Never Ending Pasta Bowl after seeing it advertised on Hawaii News Now for $13.99 per person, which sounded like an amazing deal, especially in Hawaii. When we got there, it turned out to be $19.99 instead, but we decided to try it anyway since we had already driven out for it. I ordered the salad and rigatoni with the spicy three meat sauce. The salad was just as good as I remembered from when I first tried Olive Garden back in college: crisp, fresh, and perfectly seasoned. The pasta, however, was a little strange. The sauce made my mouth feel tingly or slightly numb, almost like an "acidic" sensation, but not spicy. The service was absolutely amazing. Our waitress was kind, attentive, and really made the experience pleasant. The ambiance was cozy, smaller than most Olive Gardens I've been to, but still nice. Unfortunately, the pasta didn't sit well afterward. Both my partner and I had some stomach issues for the next day or two . Not sure if it was just an off day for the kitchen, but I'd probably try a different sauce next time if I ever go back again. read more

I must say service and food is always consistent and enjoyable... even though many put down Olive Garden, we've always enjoyed Olive Garden. Prices are higher but that is to be expected nowadays. Our server Valkyrie was outstanding. The restaurant always has a good atmosphere and is clean considering how many years it has been at Ka Makana Alii Mall. Came on a Saturday at 11 AM for lunch. Reading all the low ranked reviews, all have some unreasonable expectation. Either entitled or assuming Hawaii prices are the same as the mainland, all are a bit silly. read more

It's been a really long time since I've been to an Olive Garen. My son wanted to try so we stopped by here for lunch one day when we were in the area. I was pleasantly surprised at how good ever was! Not that it was ever disappointing, but for a chain sometimes you don't expect a whole lot. But the service was really impressive, the staff was really attentive and friendly. The food was also delicious and I forgot how big the portions were. My son really enjoyed the breadsticks and he ordered a kids meal, which was huge, but ended up eating mostly the fettuccini alfredo. I'm sure we'll be back. read more

Great place for a causal lunch at the mall. Inside was very loud at lunch time on a Saturday so we opted to sit outside, was amazing because we were the only ones out there! Sunny, breezy, no overwhelming noise, we had the best time talking and enjoying our lunch. Soup and salad was yummy and quick, no surprises there. My Chicken scampi took a while to come out as well as my Bellini but it was hot and fresh when it came, delicious. *I would note the table we had outside was irritating because the legs were off and it kept moving up and down.. All in all a nice Saturday lunch. read more

I took my family visiting from Japan here since we were window shopping at Kamakana. We walked in, asked for a table of 4 and were told it would be about 10-15 minutes. We sat and looked through the menu while we waited. I appreciated that they had a QR code for the menu in Japanese. There were other parties that walked in after us, no reservation, with the same amount in their party, who got seated before us. We ended up waiting around 30-45 minutes. I would have left but my cousins were hungry so we decided to just wait. Once we were seated, we ordered and the food came out quickly. My cousins enjoyed their meals since they don't get to eat pasta often. I'm glad they got to enjoy the soups or salad with their meal as well. read more

Update on 9-2-25. Took my bestie to Olive garden her favorite place to celebrate her early bday, she ordered shrimp scampi pasta, I ordered rigatoni with meat sauce and husband ordered the lasagna. With the unlimited salad and bread sticks was filling. She got a free bday dessert as well. Our server was nice polite and friendly. He did apologize for the small take out containers but that's OK we was going home anyway. She enjoyed her special day. read more

Amazed that we were seated right away on a Friday night. Food temperature was just right - Eggplant Parmesan was perfect, although the pasta that accompanied it was room temperature. Salad didn't have enough dressing. One thing that did catch my eye is how I seen the server cleaned the table next us, I guess since Covid is not much of a big deal - they just clean the table with regular napkin and drop all the crumbs on the floor. read more

It's Olive Garden. It's like the McDonald's of Italian food so don't expect much out of it but it's not bad. The salads are still fantastic. Whatever they do to it. I don't know what it is, but they're still fantastic and the breadsticks ain't bad either and the tour of Italy is still something to get and you can also buy uncooked food from there and bring it home and cook yourself. You don't get stuck half a tip of waiter not a bad place though if I had to vote for this place or some local rot-gut L&L bullshit - I would definitely pick this over that. read more

My food was fine but everyone else's food was better. I like how the soup is unlimited which I like because the soup was delicious with a hint of spice. I'll order better next time lol the service was fine as well. I enjoy the display on the wine . read more

Service was amazing! Between my kids being alittle hyper, over talking me as I'm trying to order Kaylee-Rose(our server) was kind and patient. I also had my sister with me who has special needs and Kaylee-Rose was sweet and patient with her! The food was ok. I ordered their new Calabrian Steak & Shrimp Bucatini. It was ok. Wasn't a fan of the spaghetti noodle with it and maybe the steak could be thin sliced, that's me personally. But overall is was good! read more

Easy to make a reservation! This year, with losing 3 coworkers (retired, left fora higher FG position, resigned), we decided to have our Christmas luncheon here. 2024 Dec 19 1215 reservation and checked in early and was seated :) The hostess was on a phone call when I walked in and after the call, she apologized for the wait and greeted me with a smile, LOVE THAT customer service! I was not surprised at how busy this restaurant is and it looked like a few companies had their xmas luncheon there today too. Booths along the perimeter, tables located in the middle, bar to the right and even a "to go" section near the restrooms. Our server, Leila, so sweet! The food, so so ono (I got the fettuccine with chicken and added broccoli) and I love their chicken gnocchi soup and the strawberry cream cake delish! I will definitely be back with the ohana! read more

This Olive Garden gets from me! It is my favorite restaurant. Their service is great and if you go around 5-6pm you hardly have to wait. After 6pm, it gets busy. Their spaghetti with meat sauce is SO good. And it's only $20 with endless soup or salad? I've lived on Oahu my whole life and there isn't a better Italian place for the price and taste. The Tour of Italy is huge and a great sampler if you don't know what to get. My husband and I are never able to finish our entrees and we always end up taking food home. read more

I want to start by saying that Olive Garden has my favorite Fettuccine Alfredo on the planet, which is why this experience was so upsetting. Yesterday afternoon, we placed a takeout order for eight individual meals for a birthday party we were hosting. The order was written out very clearly. Not only did the food take an hour and a half to prepare, but when we arrived home and opened the bags, we discovered that one entire meal was missing--and unfortunately, it was mine, the Fettuccine Alfredo. This was a $285 order with a $29 tip. Because the order took so long to prepare, we also purchased drinks at the bar while waiting. All in all, it was an expensive afternoon. When we called the restaurant, the manager, Lesley, apologized profusely, but an apology alone is not enough. When customers place a takeout order, are we expected to empty the bags inside the restaurant, open each container, and cross-check every item before leaving? Is this what customers are supposed to do in drive-through lanes as well--hold up traffic while verifying their entire order? This is simply not reasonable. What made this situation worse was being expected to drive from Waipio to Kapolei in the pouring rain to retrieve a missing meal that was omitted due to a restaurant error. I believe Olive Garden should have arranged and paid for delivery of the missing meal, whether through DoorDash, Uber Eats, or another service. While I suppose it is fortunate that the missing meal was mine and not one of our guests', the situation was still angering, frustrating, and embarrassing. When our guests noticed I did not have a meal, they kindly offered to share theirs. I declined and said I wasn't hungry, but the moment was uncomfortable and unnecessary--especially during a celebration we were hosting. If restaurants are going to offer takeout services, there should be systems in place to ensure orders are accurate and that meaningful solutions are provided when mistakes occur. An apology does not resolve the inconvenience, expense, or embarrassment caused by this situation. read more

We had a server named Natasha and she was awesome. She took every difficult order. The individuals in my party had and did not get one wrong. The restaurant was packed, and although she had multiple tables, she tended to our neediness very well. She refilled drinks brought extra bread. Make sure the soup and salad was endless and even did the happy birthday song. If all of the servers are like Natasha, I could eat here every day. read more
