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 800 restaurants bringing Italian hospitality to hungry people around the world.

Typical flash frozen re-heated...

Typical flash frozen re-heated food. Breadsticks and salad were awesome. Our server was the reason I give this a two star rating:

Brianna, the male server was very rushed and honestly seemded like he was on some type of upper (drug).

He checked on us after we were waiting over ten minutes for our salad and breadsticks to be re-filled and seemed to have 'disappeared' for awhile.

He asked us if we needed a few minutes while making menu decisions then came back ten minutes later.

He also only gave us three mints upon leaving (four of us); a minor detail but after waiting so long it was annoying.

He gave my friend the wrong thing.

He took forever to bring us our bill and when he did, he did not ask us if we wanted dessert and literally dropped the bill on the table.

We felt rushed and hurried the entire time on a Thursday night.

Definitely will not go there again.

Great food!

My family and I enjoyed a great night out at the Olive Garden recently. Food was great and service was even better. My daughter was celebrating her birthday and they were great to her. Fettucine alfredo was out of this world.
