Excellent option with great value for money in Orlando. Great menu and service, for a unpretentious family evening after a day out in the parks.

The service was a little slow but the menu offered a choice of good sides including vegetables! The food arrived hot and was very tasty. The children were kept busy while waiting on the provided game machines. Didn’t get chance to try out the wine list but that was down to me. I would recommend a visit

We liked the cuisine of this restaurant, but this time we found the environment not very clean and with a strange strong smell, the meal and service was good as always, but here is the tip for a more capricious cleaning maintenance!

We ate at the Olive Garden on Saturday 29th July - unbeknown to me my son and his girlfriend had flown out for the UK on his 21st birthday to surprise me and spend the rest of the holiday with us ! The staff were fantastic! My sister had told them about the surprise and we got a private room for the 13 of us to celebrate! The food was amazing and reasonably priced - I had salmon which was delicious and a refreshing change from burgers and fries in the theme parks ! My son and husband had the “Tour of Italy” which is 3 different dishes and they really enjoyed it. The portions are huge ! The kids meals were great too and reasonably priced. The restaurant provided a birthday cake and all came to sing happy birthday 🥳 Thank you for a night none of us will forget ! We will be back !

The seating hostess sat us (8 people) at a table for 6 after a 30-minute wait. When we said we couldn't fit, they said we had to wait again from the beginning of the queue. When we said that this was unacceptable, they asked us to speak in a better tone to them. Eventually, our party was split into two tables. Food and atmosphere were typical; regular Olive Garden quality. Waitress was polite.

A show of Italian cuisine, excellent dishes, generous servings and Honest Prices, and great service, need more?

Hold the front page ... We may have found a new favourite restaurant in Orlando. After visiting Orlando for many years, for some reason, this was our girst visit to the Olive Garden, and we wish we'd come sooner. The location is excellent, right on International Drive, and the restaurant is very attractive from the outside. Inside it gets even better. The restaurant was very busy, always a good sign, but we were shown to our table very soon after arriving. Our server, Lali, was friendly and knowledgeable and helped us through the menu and ordering. And then the main event... The food. My wife had the spaghetti and meatballs, and I had the chicken and shrimp carbonara. I would highly recommend both as we passed them between us, although there was lots more on the menu to choose from. Excellent food, excellent service (thank you Lali) ... an all round great experience... We will return... xx

Lovely nice restaurant on I drive, again always busy and very popular and can’t fault the food, the breadsticks are amazing and some great offers as well.

Our recent experience at the Olive Garden Italian Restaurant in Orlando left us greatly disappointed. We were eagerly anticipating an authentic taste of Italian cuisine, but sadly, the reality fell far short of our expectations. The most glaring issue was the quality of the food itself. It's disheartening to say that the dishes we were served lacked flavor and authenticity. The flavors were bland and lacked the depth and richness that are characteristic of genuine Italian cooking. It felt as though the essence of traditional Italian cuisine had been lost in translation, leaving us with a less-than-satisfactory culinary experience. While the staff was moderately accommodating, there was an unmistakable lack of enthusiasm that permeated the dining experience. It became evident that their primary focus was on securing a tip rather than genuinely catering to our needs or enhancing our meal. This lack of genuine interest in our satisfaction further compounded the disappointment of the overall dining experience. Based on our experience, we would caution anyone seeking a taste of true Italian cuisine to avoid the Olive Garden Italian Restaurant in Orlando. If you're in search of authentic flavors and a genuine Italian dining experience, there are undoubtedly better options available in the area. We regretfully cannot recommend this restaurant to those who are looking for a decent Italian meal that stays true to its roots.

Olive Garden on East Colonial & Alafaya. Manager needs to teach priority. I get a take out of Alfredo and they make me wait 30 minutes. I get a gallon of soup and once again they make me wait 30 minutes. They do first in and first out, instead of making sure that easy orders can get out the door quickly. Poor management.

The food was good at Olive Garden. It was getting busy, and we had to wait for our tea. The service was polite, though and since it was a birthday dinner they did a cheesecake with awesome writing.

First visit to Olive Garden, International drive tonight. Right next to i trolley stop 17 South so its easy to get to. Great atmosphere and decor. Ellie our server was great. Food was excellent, we ordered meatballs and the chicken and shrimp carbonara. So so nice to get something other than a burger. Well worth a visit, you will not be dissapointed. In fact there was a que outside waiting to get in when we left. 5 stars from us. Please visit.

My daughter has seen so many videos of Olive Garden and their bread sticks, that as soon as she knew one was nearby...she wanted to go. Unlimited bread sticks and salad with each order, you needn't bother with an appetizer. We went straight in for the entrée of Chicken Alfredo and Shrimp Scampi, massive portions (if not a little salty). Kids meal was brought out really quick, they'd almost finished by the time ours arrived...so she happily munched on one of the aforementioned bread sticks. Everyone enjoyed their meal, but no room for pudding.

Very nice and tasty restaurant. Beautiful atmosphere, quick service. Sensational dishes, one dish serves a couple if they order a starter. The dishes and starters are very well served.

Went here for my wife’s birthday dinner. Both had the tour of Italy and it was gorgeous. Massive portion along with unlimited salad and breadsticks. Service was top notch too

Went here tonight for the very first time, absolutely fantastic. From the minute we went into the restaurant the staff were super welcoming. We were seated quite quickly and our waitress was absolutely fantastic and helped us choose our food. She was very knowledgeable about the whole menu. The food….. OMG what a meal we had the starter was fantastic (I had the Calamari) this also came with salad and bread sticks. The portions are MASSIVE so please beware. I had shrimp and scallop Alfredo for my main course which was yip you’ve guessed it fantastic. So thats my review, probably has to be the best meal I’ve had this holiday 👍🏻 Please if you can take the time out to visit here as value for money is unbelievable.

Without a doubt our favorite restaurant in the USA! Never mistake, very well served, tasty, excellent presentation and impeccable service. The entrance salad and garlic cloth are indispensable. Excellent cost-benefit!

I have celiac disease so I require a gluten free diet. I spoke to the chef about GF and my ‘allergy’. I ordered the gluten free pasta with meat sauce - both gluten free on the menu and again reassured by the waiter. My food arrived, gluten free pasta as expected but as I was eating I discovered GLUTEN SPAGHETTI buried in my GLUTEN FREE pasta. As expected, I was horrified. They obviously have no bother about any allergies / cross confirmation etc so if you have any allergies or intolerances, please don’t dine here.

I really don’t know where to start here …. We are on vacation as a family of 11 after booking 3 years ago and cancelled 4 times due to covid. Today my nephew and his girlfriend flew out on his 21st birthday (our 4th day in Orlando) to surprise his mum, my sister! We knew we could not make a reservation after researching online so we went into the the restaurant this morning at 11am (just to try to book a table for 11 - my sister still unaware her son was on a flight on his way over!!!) we were told by a really helpful lady to turn up maybe around 7ish and would probably have an hours wait or so in the bar area which we were more than happy to do, we were even given a menu to take away to read! We returned at 7pm … I discreetly broke away from our party and asked for a table for 13 as we were currently 11 but 2 were coming to join as a surprise - Renata and Merinex were literally amazing!!! They understood the mission and were professional and efficient - then the surprise happened!! It was a moment we will never ever forget!!!! The staff embraced it, then we were shown to our table (approx 7.20pm!) and it wasn’t just a table - it was an entire private room area with even an iPad for my 2 year old!!! Then our waitress - ANNIE!!!!!!!! This lady is the exact example of who you want in a customer facing role - everyone needs an Annie!!!! She was so amazing!!!!!!!!! Our food order arrived and was the best food we have eaten all holiday - so hats off to the chefs also! - then we had all the waiters come sing happy birthday as a huge surprise !!!! It was the biggest VIP experience !!!!!!!!!!! I cannot recommend this place enough, 5 stars is just simply not enough! The place is buzzing, the food is delicious and the staff are like no one else!!!!! Well done Olive Garden and thank you to all the team especially Annie for making my nephews 21st birthday so amazing and for truly being the highlight of our vacation!!!!!!

Very friendly staff, nice seating area and good food quality and sizes. The staff members serving us were friendly and service minded. Wouldn’t mind eating here again. For an Italian restaurant one could be puzzled as to why they don’t serve pizzas, but they are excused by the quality of what they actually serve

We arrived and got waited on by Nicole. She was absolutely wonderful taking our order. We got our food promptly and we were so happy of their fast service. Nicole was extremely helpful on me deciding on a desert chocolate wave. The soups are the best! The atmosphere was very relaxed it was perfect time for us eat and savor our meal!

We had a great experience here, delicious, fresh food and reasonably priced cocktails. The staff were great too. We will definitely return next time we visit the US.

Delicious! A super recommendation for lunch and excellent service. It will definitely be one of my favorite places to eat.

The Olive Garden near The Mall of Millenia, is a good example of how a franchise restaurant can maintain the standard of quality and service. At lunch time a special menu, with dishes literally half the size (but still suitable size) and fairly reduced prices. The salad that serves as an entry (cortesia) and the hot backet, are excellent. Refrigerants and teas in the refil scheme, desserts are usually great, but in this visit I couldn't ask...

Wonderful and well served dish. Super recommend family lunch for cost benefit too! All restaurants are very good service, impeccable quality.

We dined here twice during our 2 week holiday (we never go back to the same place as a rule) It was so nice, service excellent, friendly and efficient! The food was super nasty - I would definitely recommend to others

Excellent Italian restaurant to eat pasta, abundant dishes and very warm atmosphere. Prices agreed with the service they offer! I recommend it 100%

Been before and will go again. Service is always attentive without being intrusive. The atmosphere is super relaxed. The breadsticks are amazing, could happily just order those. I had the chicken parmigiana and the wife and daughter both had the four cheese ravioli all from lunch menu and were exactly the right portion size for our UK appetites. The meals were as always very tasty.

I didn't know him first. Excellent in every way would return Very good your pasta has drinks refeell Very good service from all staff

Staff were friendly and attentive. Breadsticks were the best part of the meal. The rest of the food was so smothered in cheese that’s all you could taste. Chain restaurant and it felt like one too. Probably the worst meal we had in 2 weeks in Orlando.

Went there twice while on holiday. Had to wait a short while to be seated which is fine. Waiters and waitresses always friendly and helpful. Great bread stick and salad. Good quality food but 4 entrées to much for a family of 4. Were happy to pack up food. We had the chicken parmigiana, lasagne and spaghetti with meat sauce

Not been to an olive garden for years , so gave this one a go while on Orlando Food was excellent , plenty on choice , we have young kids and their menu is great value Extensive drink options nice cocktails etc Our server Stefano L was absolutely superb , could not have been nicer and more attentive It would be unfair of me to leave a rating on the food & service that was swayed by the below matter , so have left a true positive review on a lovely meal & service we enjoyed 1 thing that has left a sour taste however , not for the $3 we were charged , but the principle of it , there is a tablet on the table that can be used to pay the bill , place your order and pay , the kids have clicked onto it , accessed a games option , not even played anything as some breadsticks arrived, and we were charged for using it I think this is really out of order

Easy to get a table, just a 5 minute wait on our visit, the place is huge, friendly staff, the place was very busy but very well kept. Served with drinks quicky and given time to order, the salad and bread was great, the mains were tasty, big and filling, overall very satisfied

Some of the best service we’ve received from our waitress Kylee, as she was very attentive and helpful to us. Amazing food and at a great price too with huge portions. Will definitely be back.

The place is very pleasant. The receptionist who helped us, called Emily, was amazing. We chose the kids dish for our son, which came with lasagna and spaghetti. We ordered a carbonara ravioli and a chicken parmigiana which were delicious. The starter could be a salad or a soup. All very good. The price, compared to American fast foods, is worth it, as it is very good food!

This is a lovely restaurant where the food is gorgeous. The breadsticks are fantastic. Drinks pretty pricey but well worth a visit.

Our server “Britney” served us with the most horrendous service I’ve had during my visit to Florida and due to this ruined our last night to the point the kids were left crying.

We went to the one on international drive. Great service , fantastic food . Great place for everyone loved it here . We would 100% recommend this place

Our family of four love Olive Garden. It's one of our go to restaurants when we are in USA. Unlimited breadsticks and salad which are tasty. I can never finish my meal and certainly never any room for desert! We went for the lunch menu on our last day before heading to the airport - great value for money and would highly recommend. Hopefully I'll get back...

Excellent Italian food restaurant, very good services, good presentation, magnificent locations, highly recommended

We visit this Olive Garden twice yearly when we stay in Orlando. We had a fantastic meal tonight, beautifully cooked food and great service provided. Cannot rate this restaurant highly enough, we love it and will continue to eat here on our visits to Orlando.

A great welcome and a great selection of food for all the family. The breadsticks are to die for and one of our party was CEOLIAC and need a GLUTEN FREE meal and this was catered for most attentively and all round it was the best meal of the holiday so far. Though a little expensive for what is basically a chain restaurant experiance the food more than made up for the costs. Everyone was more than happy with their choices and quality and the manager weven came around to ask if the meal was satisfactory during the meal.

Our daughter loves Olive garden salad and breadsticks so we always visit when on holiday. It was good as always, server fantastic. The Berry Sangria is delicious and worth a visit for that alone.

The food was OK although the salad was a bit old which was disappointing. However I had a strange experience when collecting the food. I’ve only been to one other olive garden (Ala Moana on Oahu) and the staff there were super friendly. At this one I asked two different people where I should go to collect my online order before finally finding the right person. The staff were quite dismissive with the first just waiving in the direction of some other counters and the second person pretty much not engaging or helping at all. He just shook his head rather than telling me to wait at the counter right next to him. When I finally found the right person she was friendly but the first two were borderline rude and left me wondering whether I was even close to being in the right place. Being in a prime tourist location I would expect they get a lot of new customers and a little clearer help rather than dismissing the lost customer to walk in circles still lost would be nice.

As a party of 8 we thought we’d struggle to get a table but only had to wait about 10 minutes before being seated in a large private area. Perfect for a large family group with young children. The food was fabulous - but big portions!!! The appetisers were particularly delicious with the lasagne frittata being a bit hit!! The shrimp carbonara was a really tasty entree and the bread sticks that they bring with the meal were delicious and very moreish! Great care and consideration was taken with the allergy requirements for one of our party which was much appreciated. I’ve always wanted to visit The Olive Garden and so pleased I did. This definitely won’t be a last visit either - we all thoroughly enjoyed the meal and experience.

Angie (blonde girl) at the front desk ruined our experience. We walked up to the front desk and one of the other hostesses said hello , I barely had hello out of my mouth when Angie cut over me and said “can you give me a second” without any eye contact. First of all, of course I can give you a minute but at least say “Hello? Please? Thank you?” where I’m from that’s good manners. She continued to ignore us for a further 5 minutes and then said “Ok how many in your party” once again, no hello, how are you, thanks for waiting etc. Her attitude towards me was so rude that even my partner told me I am way too patient for my own good because I should’ve pulled her up on that and I wish I did! So Angie please cheer up a bit, smile and be kind to paying customers. All the other servers were very attentive and kind and I’d like to compliment the bartenders on their great drinks.

Parking, reception, tables, waitresses, courtesy, bathrooms, dishes, prices, all excellent!!! Super indico. The To Go option is also great. Remembering that there are 18% service fees using the restaurant and waitress services. Go without fear. Much more than lunch in the parks and the food is wonderful. Italian with American touch.

FIrst time taking our teenagers here and they loved it! Possibly the best value for your money anywhere on I-Drive. If you have a large family with teens, come here! The salad and breadsticks WON the night!!! The only negative, was the restaurant had a moldy smell and we were a bit put off by that.

The restaurant was very busy and the staff rushed everything as they just wanted your table back. Very unrelaxed atmosphere.

You just met your match with stuffed mushrooms and Zuppa Toscana! Loved them for years but got to say! Mine is better!

Excellent choice, quality in your dishes, abundant quantities at the right price, good menu variety, very good and friendly service.

Wasn’t really expecting too much from our visit with olive garden being a chain but boy was I wrong. This was my first visit to Florida and to an olive garden and boy will I be back for both!! The complimentary bread sticks are to die for !!! Honestly we were overwhelmed with the amount of food. We shared 2 appetisers for a table of 4 and then My partner and I shared the Italian trio I think it was for a main and we could hardly finish it. The food was excellent and compliments to the chefs. A restaurant experience is made by the food and the service - which for us was provided by Gabe, he was pleasant, polite and friendly throughout our whole visit without being intrusive. He looked after us very well so please send on my thanks for that.

My first trip to olive garden was at the start of our holiday and the food and service was lovely. I had a chicken Alfredo and my wife had shrimp Alfredo. You really can't fault the taste or the portion size. We thought we would return on our last day before journeying to the airport. We were shown to our seats with our menus. And then nothing happened. There were lots of staff moving around and chatting but none would make eye contact with us. After 15minutes we left and went elsewhere. Such a shame after the first trip but found a really nice place a bit further down the road. We will likely not return to OG on our next visit.

We visited the Olive Garden on Palm Parkway and that was not good. It was very cold and the server, who was very nice and did her best, said that there was nothing she could do. And more customers were complaining about it. I ordered the carbonara and explicitly asked if it was made with cream or with eggs. As cream is way too heavy for me. She said she would take care of it, but after I first got a completely different dish in front of me and my girlfriend had to start and eat alone, the plate I got was completely drowned in a heavy creamy sauce. My girlfriend had a dish with asparagus, but where one usually only eat the upper side, this has the whole asparagus in it and some parts are just uneatable. So this was a disappointing experience.

A favorite among Brazilians, I was looking forward to discovering it! And it exceeded my expectations. We were attended to by Nicole! Kindness in person. He served us very well. The house salad and bread are free and are worth a meal as they are so well served lol The dishes are gigantic. In fact, you can share a couple. The prices are so good that I had a hard time believing the prices of the drinks. I recommend it with my eyes closed. Tasty, plentiful food and great price. Excellent service!

What can I say fantastic time!!! We are from the UK and walked in the evening weekday with no issues. Server names Alex was brilliant, attentive and polite! Unlimited breadsticks soup and Salad which was amazing!! We ordered differing pasta dishes and all were amazing! Huge portions and we were so stuffed! They even gave me a tiramisu for my birthday and all the waiters sang! Was an amazing meal atmosphere fantastic and was reasonably priced! Would highly recommend and will be visit in again before we leave.

Great service, very attentive staff member. Food was lovely - so much!! You get a free soup or salad and bread as a starter, all of which was really nice and generous portions. The mains were very generous size as well. We all opted for pasta dishes. Can recommend the shrimp carbonara.

We really liked Olive Garden and thought it was great value for money. We waited around 10 minutes, we found everyone to be very helpful, from the reception to the service at the table. We ordered Fettuccine al Alfredo and Lasagna (traditional), soup and salad were included in the price (choice of 1 for each dish). The Fettuccine was great but I didn't really like the lasagna, as part of the layer was ricotta and not mozzarella, but it wasn't bad. The salad, very large, was excellent, as was the soup. A very tasty roll also came as a starter. When we go to Orlando again we will definitely go there!

Was recommended to try this place when in Orlando by a friend, and he definitely got it right with this place. Stopped by tonight for dinner, and were served by Ryan R . Very friendly, and helped us with our choices and how the unlimited soup and salad works. Very clean restaurant, and the service and food were first class. Ryan and his manager Darrell both checked on us during the meal to make sure everything was ok, and couldn't have been friendlier. Will definitely be back next time were in town. Thanks .

Big family favourite and didn’t disappoint! Was busy when we arrived, despite being told that wait time was 35mins we were seated within 5! Salad very tasty, devoured warm breadsticks and chicken Marsala was yummy! Service (Enrique) was helpful, attentive and friendly - thank you!

Me and my family visited Olive garden last night and let me just say,that was probably the best restaurant i’ve ever been to.The food was incredible and the breadsticks were something else.I ordered mac n cheese with a side of fries and that was honestly the nicest mac and cheese i’ve ever had.The service was incredible and we had the loveliest waiter ever.So amazing

First impression count Unfortunately The very first impression homeless man on the bench outside the doors drunk Enter the restaurant desk staff were rude And an overpowering smell of cheese which is somewhat like feet Once you get past all that our server was very nice and helpful attentive Great choice on the menu for all dietary needs Food was absolutely delicious very flavourful And generous portions In terms of price I found it very fair for what we got 3 mains with soup or salad and a kids meal All with drinks and we got dessert Came to $168 I would go back again

Ok food let down by below average service. Went here a few times in a week as our hotel was very near and we had good memories of this place from an earlier visit to Orlando. Service really random, one visit it was great, another visit the two out of three starters arrived then the a long time later the third one arrived, then they piled up our table with main courses before we had finished our starters. Another visit soups turned up then we had to wait an age for them to bring spoons to eat it with, again main courses turn up and are sitting getting cold because we are only just eating our starters. To be honest there are better options around International Drive.

The service in here was very good ,the food was great and portion sizes too much but you can't complain about that and freshly made bread sticks which tasted amazing.

Great place. Even though we didn't speak English, the staff made an effort to serve us well and explain the dishes. The portions are very well served and everything is very tasty. It's an Italian with spice and an American way. It's open until late and a great option for those who want to eat well. The prices for the dishes are in accordance with what is served.

The food was tasty, but too salty. The kids menu was great, simple and with the right amount of salt. Very fast and kind service!

First time here. Visiting from Wales. AMAZING FOOD. Sammy was absolutely fabulous and made our evening easier and even better with his attentiveness and kindness. Super quick service and the food was ten out of ten. Everyone was so kind and the manager came out to greet everyone which was lovely!

I went to the restaurant on Wednesday 10/25, I arrived around noon. I called and was answered promptly but when the garlic bread arrived…. Reheated condition, hard on the outside and horrible. I've been going to this restaurant for over 10 years. Has the standard fallen? Trust!

Delicious. Abundant complimentary and free salad or soup. Delicious pasta. Careful attention and always good. We went to several branches several nights and one was better than the other. We will definitely return and we already remember everyone who travels. Thank you!

Staff very friendly and helpful. Good food and large portions. Very busy and food did not take long. Spo everyone enjoyed their dinner

My wife and I whent to east Colonial. The food,ambiance was great. What made it amazing was the young server by the name Maya. She was fantastic. Thank you Olive Garden for having her.....Maya job well done the best service ever.😀😀😀

what an amazing restaurant the olive garden is. The food is absolutely beautiful the staff are amazing, nothings too much trouble for any server in this restaurant. The bottomless salad and garlic bread sticks are delicious and the shrimp alfredo was to die for so creamy and fresh. my children throughly enjoyed their meals too. we will definitely be back on our next trip to orlando. Big thanks to Tyler who was our server.

First visit to this restaurant was 10 years ago and I remembered it being excellent. This time was no different. Quality food and good service. Our waiter Deven was very helpful and friendly. I had the tour of Italy followed by Italian doughnuts, absolutely amazing meal. Cappuccino was the best I had during our 2 week vacation. Top marks . Will return again next year.

Amazing! No other word to describe it! Food was fantastic, the bread sticks are divine! As a family of 4, we all enjoyed our meals. Generous portions for both adult and kids meals. Our waitress Zaina was exceptional. She could not have made us feel more welcome and looked after us so well during our entire visit. Service was second to none. Thank you for a fantastic first visit to Olive Garden!

After almost two weeks of rip off burgers and fries in Disney this place was an absolute god send. We were a party of 8 seated within 5 mins. The service was excellent. We had a couple of starters to share then a main each.The bill was $180 for 8 people. 8 people!! Outstanding. The food was very very good for a chain restaurant. We honestly had zero faults with this place.

Wonderful restaurant in atmosphere, quality and price! We ate wonderfully well, we left very satisfied and we were very well looked after by Francesca!

Fabulous restaurant delicious food Went with family of 8 including 3 children catered fantastically for all of us Best food of holidays so far Brandon was a very attentive and pleasant server couldn’t have asked for better

This place was absolutely spectacular! We were served by a very friendly waitress who looked after us well. As for the food, it was divine! I enjoyed it thoroughly. The ravioli was delicious and the pizza was the best I've had in the whole of America. Will definitely be coming to the olive garden again! Such a shame that we don't have this restaurant in the UK.

My husband is disabled the hostess taking us to our table ran ahead and just left us to figure out where we were supposed to go. Then we sat over 30 minutes nobody even came to bring water. In the end we just got up and left without being served. Complete waste of time. Disgusted.

I have been to other Olive Garden branches, but this one in the Milinia Mall is very bad, the service is low quality, they served the salad and the hot plate all together, there was a hair on one plate, and when I informed The girl asked if he changed it, an absurd question, any restaurant changes it without comment. On the tablets at the tables left over from the pandemic, there are games for children, and surprise when the bill arrives they bill the games at 2.50 u$S, it is not the amount it is the lack of notice, and the lack of respect for the customer. There are many Oliver Gardens in Orlando, don't go to this branch.

We had returned from a boat tour at Key Biscayne National Park (a short 15 minute drive) and arrived at dinner time. A perfect place to go and an always good meal!

Clean and well laid out restaurant with booths and tables for larger groups. The food was good quality and a fair price. The staff were very helpful and friendly. We went back on two more occasions. Highly recommended. Great place to eat..

We are in Orlando, FL and went to dinner at Olive Garden, 8984 Internacional Drive. We didn't even get to eat because we were given a terrible reception and after 18 minutes of sitting at the table, without any service and even though we had spoken to one of the girls who passed by our table, no one served us. We got up, 3 people, we headed to reception and left. In fact, we are having dinner at another Olive at this very moment and we are receiving extremely good service.

Visited here while on holiday, staff were really good. Two had soup on one start with others had salad, which were all good. All main course where spot on service was good and the price was excellent, great food and value for money.

The food was great, the service sufficient, where we got everything we wanted correctly and in good time. The soups are delicious and who doesn’t want grated cheese on everything? For me the breadsticks were waaaaaaay too salty though…

Very good service. Excellent quality of food. Hearty dishes. Nice setting. Prices in line with the Quality.

Lots of choices on the menu and everything we ate was fresh and very tasty The staff were knowledgeable and friendly Restaurant itself was clean and good decor I would definitely recommend visiting

We was really looking forward to trying this restaurant after hearing good things. There was a queue when we got there but as we were happy to sit outside we got sat really quickly. We had our order taken really quickly so it was a good start. Half way through our food we got asked if we wanted to box up our meal? Erm no, we are still eating... We hadnt even put our cutlery down for a break so no confusion there! About 5 mins later we get approached again with 'you won't be wanting desserts?!' we replied with 'we will see how we get on as we might still want desserts!' in the meantime chairs and tables were being dragged about around us to make a larger table... Just pick the table/chairs up when you've got people dining! It's just plain rude. 5 mins after that the waiter - Richard I believe then brought out our receipt while I was still eating!! At this point I did say do you want us to go because you are giving us that vibe! Apparently he had a big table coming in and had to prepare for that! Well it shouldn't affect our dining experience especially when we were the only table sitting outside at 6pm? Shame as we would of liked to have ordered more drinks and desserts. The food was fab, just the service was a complete let down. If you want a good outside dining experience head over to Uncle Julio's! They have a fantastic customer experience!

Had some really nice meals here during my trip to Orlando! All the dishes I had (pizza, various pastas and lasagne) were all really good

Been to Olive Garden a couple of times before, first time back for 4 years. Monika the waitress was hilarious and really looked after us. The food is decent, the breadsticks I could eat forever. We enjoyed the night.

PJ was a great server and very attentive. She even gave me a free desert for my birthday. Food was amazing, prob the best I have had at an Olive Garden. From start to finish we had a great dining experience

A first time visit to Olive Garden , a dull miserable server. The food was equally dull . Rather dry lasagne and two other pasta dishes the whole thing lacked freshness and fresh herbs. The" tour of Italy " meal was very average. If this was supposed to represent Italian food I wouldn't visit Italy. Not a restaurant We would bother visiting again

Very nice lunch, just made the lunch specials and the food was good quality Raphael “the server” was very friendly and the service was extremely good 👍

Great value for money as it has a snack menu which is lunch for us for up to 12 dollars including soup or salad and delicious pasta, as well as other dishes on the menu, the food is plentiful and delicious, it's worth going

Came across this by chance whilst out looking for a restaurant as it is one we had not noticed before. Hadn't booked so had a short wait in the bar area having a drink before our table was ready which wasn't an issue for us. Not sure what to expect from here but pleasantly surprised by the restaurant. Good food and good service with a good atmosphere. Can't remember the exact mains that we ordered but they came with unlimited salad and amazing breadsticks which were like a starter! I-pads available at the table to use for a small charge which we used and enjoyed doing quizzes etc and games - a bit of fun and something different. Love the fact that every restaurant we visited brings you ice cold glasses of water without you having to ask for them (even top ups without asking, unlike the UK)!!

This is a lovely restaurant The staff are very friendly and welcoming The food is lovely and the atmosphere is great I recommend a visit if you're in Orlando

Breadsticks were nice and so was the soup, but my lasagne was nothing like an Italian lasagne and was disappointing…I ordered a second bowl of soup instead!

I sat at the bar and had a good experience. The bar tender, Christian, was really nice. He made sure I had everything I needed and was well taken care up. The area was just very crowded.

We visited the Olive Garden Italian Restaurant during a recent stay at a nearby hotel on International Drive. Having never visited before we were very impressed by the service and standard of food. Our server was friendly and recommended food from the menu which I then decided to order and was not disappointed. The portions were very large and reasonably priced.

The restaurant is great. Good service and good food. At the entrance comes a huge and very, but very good salad, in addition to some very tasty hot little loaves. In my opinion, individual dishes end up serving two people, because they are quite large. We stayed 7 nights in Orlando and were there three times! Super recommend!

Went 3 times whilst on holiday. Was excellent t every time food nice prices ok service excellent. As a tip go on the website and go on the waiting list for a table so you’re not waiting in your car for your table as it’s super Popular

Visited here recently when we were on holiday. Food was amazing absolutely gorgeous. Staff were very helpful and friendly. The manager was very helpful he rang for a taxi for us to go back to.our hotel. Our server was really nice. I would highly recommend going here.

Went whilst on holiday with family of four. A great venue and pasta focused restaurant. Staff were friendly, attentive and the food was nice. The big issue was that we were given the bill less than 40 mims after being seated. The service was so fast and so rushed it spoiled the entire experience!! We felt so uncomfortable. We ordered with a couple of minutes of being seated, waitress was on us do fast. Drinks came, literally 5 mins after ordering the appetisers came, 10 mins into appetisers and although we were only half way through and I d barely even had a drink the mains came. The waitress wasn't interested in if we were finished the appetisers, they went on the table which wasn't that big regardless putting pressure on us to finish the appetisers. 20 mins later waitress came back, didn't even ask if we wanted more drinks or desserts and we settled the bill. Never felt so rushed in a restaurant ever. Really spoilt what would have probably been a nice experience. Felt more fast food that a fast food chain. Slow down guys!!! This was an evening family meal!

Staff, food, cocktails, wine and service were all great and really good value too. What more can I say? I highly recommend this restaurant if you’re in the area.

Always love the food here and service is always great. A restaurant we visit all the time when in Orlando!

Wonderful and plentiful food at a fair price! It's very worth it. We are a family of 4 people (2 adults and 2 children) and we ordered two dishes, which were more than enough and we still had food left over. The bread that precedes the main course is very delicious. The salad is wonderful. We liked everything.

Came to Olive to celebrate one of us birthday. The best parts: 1. The server- young lady from Slovakia. She was perfect- nice, knowledgeable, witty, quick. Make us feel really good. 2. The view from the rood was fantastic. Mediocre: Food. Nothing special for the money. Views will not last too long. Drinks. Bar is the weakest point. Drinks are just plain bad. Bloody Marie, Old Fashioned, Lemon Drops- nothing was mix right. Need new Barista.

Great service from Rio and all the staff. Just way too much food! If not big eater share a main.. and opt out of starters.. we were seated promptly followed by drinks, bread and a huge salad, then mains.. however once finished eating we were asked if we wanted the cheque or a dessert opted for cheque..

Edith our lovely waitress could not have been any more helpful, with menu choices and great customer service, the food was amazing and plentiful, great atmosphere and comfortably busy with a great atmosphere - we will definitely return

There were four of us for dinner on January 4, 2024 at 5:30 pm. Food was ordered and came quicker than we had expected. The waiter tried to rush the table, reaching over my face to try to clear dishes before we were done.. We had to tell him we were still eating and to let us finish our meal.It seems to be a trend to rush customers out at restaurants in Orlando. We experienced this three times during our stay.

we decided to go this restaurant on day one of our holidays and no restaurant could compare to this .Absolutely outstanding from the food to the service.The manager even came round and introduced himself which i thought was a nice touch you doing an amazing job there and when we visit on holiday again we will be going to the olive garden first ! Amazing and thank you for making our holiday so special

I had been told to visit this restaurant while I was in Orlando. I went and far exceeded my expectations, food simply wonderful.

A pleasant dining experience. The menu offers a variety of classic Italian dishes. The portions are generous and the ingredients fresh. Unlimited salad and garlic bread are must-haves. Ideal for dining with family or friends, Olive Garden combines quality and comfort in a pleasant setting.

Very nice place, kid friendly, good airconditioning, no cooking smells, and large size of quality food. My wife really likes it here. Only thing that should be mentioned is that TIPS are automaticly added to your bill (18%) it was on ours.

It has a gluten-free menu. I had gluten-free pasta that was very good. The salad is delicious and delicious.

Our family recently had dinner at Olive Garden on International Drive, and it exceeded our expectations. Although the restaurant was busy, the staff remained attentive and friendly throughout. The portions were more than generous, with complimentary soup and salad as well as breadsticks, that tasted amazing. We also appreciated that the kids’ meals were served a little earlier, allowing us to sort the kids out before our meals arrived. Having grown up with Italian relatives, I’m used to authentic homemade Italian food, and I was pleasantly surprised by the flavours and quality here, especially as this is a chain restaurant.

We had walked past this restaurant a couple of times and it was always busy. We tried it and could see why. Great value and generous portions. Michelle was a great host and changed the wine that we weren’t sure was Chardonnay. Lots of birthdays being celebrated too. Would happily return

Oh, bad. Totally different care than the others. There were no waiters. Extremely poorly polite people. Worst Olive Garden I've Known

We always have a great meal in here. Our waitress was great. Great selection on the menu. Make sure you try the breadsticks, they are free! Not a long wait if you get there around 7, but very busy after 8. Loads of parking.

Absolutely loved wish we had it in the UK! Very reasonably priced, great food and service. Will return before I leave !!!
