It was a 25-seat luncheonette in Waycross, Ga., called The Green Frog and promised “Service with a Hop”. He went on to open the first Olive Garden in Orlando, Florida in 1982. Olive Garden continues to be the number one full-service Italian restaurant company in the country with more than 850 restaurants bringing Italian hospitality to hungry people around the world.

I have not been to an Olive Garden in many years until recently and had heard it had significantly improved, unfortunately that was not the case. The food was not the best but the bread sticks were okay.

I have really come to love Olive Garden over last several years. I really like their salad dressing. They have these crispy lasagna bite appetizers that are amazing! The soup & salad deal is great when it's offered. I usually have great service so it is a very pleasant dining experience.

I know this is not supposed to be "authentic Italian" food but their soup and salad really hits the spot. Problem with this location is that it seems like there is ALWAYS a ridiculous 45 minute wait. Sorry but I don't like to wait. Also since they are so busy, it's like you are being rushed through dinner just so that they can get more people in. Plus side the salads, bread sticks and pastas are always on point.

Meh! That's how I feel about Olive Garden in general. The food, the service, the parking....there is nothing to write home about, but it's acceptable when my kid asks to eat there. I do like the eggplant parmesan and it's a good size to share with my 8 year old.

Wasn't too impressed with them. I was vegan at the time and they weren't knowledgeable about their menu. I explained my food restrictions and my soup still came with cheese on top. Although the the minestrone soup was one of the best I've ever had.
