Olive Garden Italian Restaurant

A bit expensive but all in all good food.. I go for the salad and bread sticks.

Totally disappointed at this Olive Garden location. It was my daughter's birthday. She picked Olive Garden for the place to celebrate it. It started by us being seated at a table. The waiter came and took our drink order. We order appetizers with our drink order. A few minutes later our appetizers arrived but no drinks. We then order our meals, me choosing the stuffed shells with meat sauce. My daughter's ordered the Shrimp Scampi, and the kids meal with choice of pasta and cream sauce with shrimp. I picked the soup and they ordered the unlimited salad. Still no drinks! The soup and salad arrived. Still no drinks! I finally asked for the drinks? The waiter said he forgot them but would be right back with them. By this time he was bringing the food instead. My stuffed shells were dried out and brown on top. My daughter's kids plate came on a large plate with a small portion of dried out noodles. Totally shocked by the quality of food being so poor. The shrimp scampi was the same. The drinks arrived finally. I called the waiter over to ask him if the food had been sitting under the heat lamp? He said that's how it is prepared? I was so disappointed by the quality of food they serve. I wouldn't recommend this place to celebrate a birthday in the future. Now that we didn't eat much of the food, I told the waiter it was my daughter's 9th birthday today and we were celebrating it. He replied that's nice. I thought he would get the hint to bring a piece of cake or have them sing Happy Birthday to my daughter, it never happened. He then asked do you want desert? I ordered the cake. As he walked off I got up to use the restroom and walked over to him and told him again if they could acknowledge her Birthday? He replied I am sorry I missed it. Don't worry we will be there in a minute. A few minutes later he came with the desert and check in hand. No singing or Birthday wishes came with it. I paid the bill and left with my disappointed daughter. Not the place to go at this location!

Good food and service.

Our server Dionne was the most pleasant, cheerful, professional I've had the pleasure of being served by. After a long absence of dining out this was the best day in way too long. Kudos to Olive Garden, North Dartmouth.

The service was great.. we sat by the bar area so, I do believe our server must've been the bartender. He made a great frozen margarita(ud83cudf49)The food on the other hand✋... was not so great.. I was totally disappointed.. I could've made a better shrimp alfredo.. The minestrone soup had way too much of everything but the broth.. is it really soup if there's no broth?nI gave it 4 stars, because I'm not a drinker at all.. and will be back for more of those margaritas.. We were there on Oct 29th 2020 .. I forgot the servers name.. but you need more of him.. and better cooks Olive garden
