Traditional dishes and all -you-can-eat salad, soup and bread sticks are the draw at this upscale-casual Italian restaurant..
In Short
Established in 1982, this chain gained a following for its laid-back atmosphere and generous portions. Patrons settle into comfortable booths and tables in dining rooms with
plants, artwork and décor reminiscient of the villas in the Tuscan countryside. Starters include scampi, sausage or pepperoni pizza, and several soup choices, as well as a signature seafood dip (crab, shrimp, cheese and marinara). Entrees include classics like lasagna, fettuccine Alfredo and chicken parmigiana. There are also "Garden Fare" options, which promise 30 percent fewer calories.…
If you have to watch your salt and fat intake, don't eat here!. This is low-rate food for sure. The food at the Garden in Beachwood is not completely inedible, but there are plenty of other Italian restaurants that do better, so why bother? Every course was overly salted and was probably at least 50% fat. I'm a salt-lover, so I'm not afraid of it, but this food was almost painfully salty. I bet even the desserts (which we didn't have) are salty! The risotto was really disappointing. Besides being almost too salty to eat, it was gummy and seemed to have heavy cream in it. That's not how you make a good risotto. The table cover and all the menus were sticky, which is gross. The place was not completely filled, but we still had to wait at least 20 minutes for a table. The host and hostesses were only minimally responsive. On the plus side, the waitress was very nice, and we tipped her well.…
yuck. Every time I have been to the Olive Garden the food has been awful. Everything comes in frozen, from what I understand, and it always taste awful. The pasta is gross, the salad is like any other and the breadsticks are the same as you can get in the frozen food isle at the local food store. They overcharge for food that is gross.…
are you kidding me?. Clearly some people need to be educated in authentic Italian cuisine - The Olive Garden comes no where close to this!!
Yuck. Olive Garden is a chain... plain and simple. Thier food is bland and uneventful...who needs a never-ending pasta bowl when it tastes like show leather.
