I recently had the pleasure of dining at the Olive Garden Italian Restaurant in Houston, and I must say, it was a truly delightful experience! From the moment I stepped through the doors, I was welcomed by a warm and inviting atmosphere . The staff at Olive Garden were exceptional. They greeted us with genuine smiles and made us feel like honored guests throughout our entire visit. Now, let's talk about the food. Olive Garden truly exceeded my expectations. The menu offered a wide variety of Italian classics, and each dish was expertly prepared and bursting with authentic flavors. The breadsticks were warm, soft, and accompanied by a delicious garlic butter sauce that left me craving more. The soups and salads were fresh and vibrant, perfectly setting the stage for the main course. We opted for their Cheese Ravioli and their signature Fettuccine Alfredo, and oh my, it was heavenly! The creamy sauce was rich and velvety, perfectly coating the perfectly cooked pasta. It was a true symphony of flavors that left me wanting to savor every last bite. The portions at Olive Garden were generous, ensuring that no one leaves hungry. The value for money is remarkable, especially considering the quality of the food and the impeccable service provided. Additionally, the restaurant was clean and well-maintained, further adding to the overall pleasant dining experience.

Jordan... Let me tell everyone about our waiter Mr. Jordan. If every server was half as good/professional as Mr. Jordan this world would be a much better place. Jordan goes above and beyond to serve his guests, he was very attentive and knew the menu front to back. Not once did I have to ask for anything and if I even thought about wanting/needing anything Mr. Jordan was already on it. Olive Garden should hire Jordan as a personal trainer for every new waitstaff trainee because he's flawless and cares about his job and his guests. The food As we already know the salad at Olive Garden is the best (IMO). I normally order chicken or shrimp entrée but decided to try something different today and ordered the spaghetti and meatballs with the meat sauce. I didn't care for the taste of the sauce and the meatballs were a bit mushy. The sauce tasted like the spaghetti-o's in the can, maybe it was just an off day, or my taste buds were off. I will make sure to ask for Mr. Jordan every time I visit my Olive Garden for another wonderful meal.

This location was getting better, but the last two visits got worse and worse. Last time there was a hair in our food, this time we were seated in the back and literally forgotten. The people in the booth next to us experienced the same, but were given all this food to take home at the end that made them question why. We on the other hand were given lunch portions of food when we didn't order a lunch portion. I thought lunch portions were for weekdays anyway and not the weekend. The salad had almost no dressing on it. The soup was cold. A server walking by decided to help us after seeing us still waiting for someone to help, and numerous servers as well as the manager walked by without saying anything to us. We almost left until someone took our order and someone else took our table, both saying it wasn't their table. Two people were helping a big table and that's it. When the guests at that table left, he kept coming and vacuuming by us when our floor wasn't even in the vicinity of that table and wasn't dirty. It was absolutely ridiculous and when I tried to fill out a survey on the kiosk, it said something was wrong with it, so Idk if they saw it but someone needs to fix these issues ASAP. I felt bad I even suggested going here for lunch today. We thought this location was the best but it's headed in the other direction.

We went to have lunch and were given such a hard time if we asked for something. It was always a charge. It's a charge for extra pack of croutons or cheese packets. But there's a homeless man with a cart eating in front of the restaurant. Do I have to be homeless to get customer service? The management was kinder to him. I'm supposed to be grateful for whatever they give me, like I'm homeless and I'm a paying customer!! I'm a PA at hospital and if I'm paying for something I except to get what I paid for. We kept this business going during COVID in 2020 by getting to go catering for the entire unit at hospital. They give the paying customer a hard time. I believe we should of been treated better. They served us without a smile, because they were stingy with small items. They treat to go badly. They overcharge and still don't want to give us but a very small amount and get a attitude if we point out a error or ask for extra condiments. It's exhausting coming here to get service. I do not like the staff and management here. They are not friendly and overcharge for everything. Won't go back!! Other olive gardens are not that stingy. Or maybe they're prejudice?? AND I NOTICE WHEN THEY HAVE OTHER REVIEWS FOR TO GO THAT'S BAD, THEY DON'T COMMENT AND I DON'T NEED A COMMENT. WE JUST WANT PUBLIC TO KNOW.

  • Carlos Bahena

I have actually never had a problem ordering from here up until today. My mom had ordered the food to-go 30min in advanced. She had ordered the tour of italy and chicken alfredo. As she arrives and gets the food they have got the whole order wrong. So she had to wait another 30 minutes just to get the right order. So what is that like an hour wait just for 2 dishes? Keep in mind she's just trying to come home from work and eat but she has to deal with all that. So she finally comes home with the right order and we check the food and of course there's another problem. When we look at the tour of italy, it seems that the chicken is missing. There was only the lasagna and the pasta present. We thought that they forgot the chicken but as look around in the plate it seems that the chicken was hiding underneath the lasagna. I mean what kind of a joke is this? I had to play scavenger hunt just to find the chicken. In the photo I posted underneath you can see the chicken in the middle that I had to dig out from the lasagna. This was truly unacceptable and I hope no one else will have this experience.

  • Kellie Adams

Great food. But on a Saturday night in Clear Lake, it's a madhouse. We had a new server who was still learning, so I'll cut her some slack. But the alfredo dipping sauce should always come out with the breadsticks, not 10 minutes after all of the food has been brought out. The hand towels in the ladies bathroom should always be on supply, which I had to tell 3 members of the waitstaff, before it was taken care of. And when you push the "call server" button on the table kiosk, someone.... anyone... with an Olive Garden name tag should respond in less than 20 minutes, yes...the red light blinked for 20 minutes before someone came to our table and that was only because, I eventually flagged someone down. Normally the Clear Lake location is on top of things, but tonight the service time lacked. But the food as always was delicious. Other than the untimely service, I still recommend the Baybrook Mall location, maybe just not on a Saturday night.

We were assigned 2 waitresses for a party of 14-16. Waitresses were massively stressing out over the tickets after they took initiative from the start as to over who's child is assigned to who. Additional plates were served without anyone requesting them. One waitress was upset when one of our attendees asked for more more soup and was overheard saying "Thats his third soup". I didn't know unlimited soup had a LIMIT. After a while both waitresses disappeared without checking on us. Empty drinks and a mass amount of finished plates were left behind without ever being picked up. Dessert option never came, we had to get up and seek assistance just for 1 dessert instead of getting everyone something. The service was ridiculous and will definitely not recommend for large parties.

  • Cathy Gardner

I usually love Olive Garden. I decided to branch out from my normal pasta to try the salmon. The flavor of the salmon was very good, but the portion was small and was served with, I kid you not, a good half plate of broccoli. While the flavor of the broccoli was okay, it was overcooked and far too much broccoli - even if you like broccoli (and I do). There really needs to be a starch of some sort and at least half the amount of broccoli that isn't cooked to death. The 3 stars for service was not for the wait staff but rather the young lady at the front. When she asked if a table was okay, I said a booth, please. She literally rolled her eyes in front of me. My husband has some hearing issues, so we always try to sit in a booth or quiter area. Our wait staff was good.

So.......they removed many items from the menu, made portion sizes smaller, raised 2b prices of everything on the menu, and hired some of the worst staff I've ever seen in the restaurant industry. We asked the waitress ( i wouldn't really call her a waitress) if manicotti was on the menu. She gave us a puzzled look, paused ror a minute, then says "i dont know! Food was cold. Entrees tasted terrible. Chicken was severly undercooked, service was unbelievably horrible, Definitely wont ever go back to olive garden.

  • Rj Sauceda

The culinary experience was marred by a discernible decline in the quality of ingredients. The incorporation of pre-made chicken, perhaps overlooked by corporate strategists, was glaringly apparent. It is evident that the restaurant staff, diligent in maintaining the temperature of the dishes, cannot be faulted for this deviation. Regrettably, the erstwhile culinary cornerstone, Chicken Alfredo, has been supplanted, echoing a disconcerting trend reminiscent of other establishments undergoing a shift towards mediocrity. Give a hand to the suits upstairs

The food was great service, was alright. I dont like having to look for my waiter. The evening we went, there were some very loud young ladies celebrating something. Usually, you can relax and converse, but we could not hear each other without getting loud ourselves. I will go again.

  • Deandra Nealy

I recently went to Olive Garden for a Birthday party. It has been some years since I have dined in one. Things have really changed in the quality of food that they serve. What I loved the most was the endless salad and bread sticks. The salad didn’t look appealing at all, and it wasn’t endless. My meal was mediocre and didn’t have any flavor to it. Needless to say, I didn’t finish it. Not a restaurant that I would put on my radar to dine in.

This location is consistent on delicious food and great service. On our most recent visit for a family member’s birthday we had drinks, appetizers, entrees and dessert; all was wonderful. In addition, Anna was our server and was hospitable and very attentive. Kitchen manager as well as dining room manager checked in at our table to ask how our visit was. I highly recommend this location whether for lunch or dinner because it never disappoints, thanks to the entire staff.

Last Sunday this Olive Garden (Bay Area) had their system go down. I paid for an online order and when I got there they refused to give me my food. Even though I had already paid for it AND the payment went through. I still have not been given my refund! I waited for over 1 hour and even though my food was ready and the payment was taken they refused to give it to me. I saw other people given their food except for me. I walked into the lobby to ask for my food and they said they needed to bag it but never gave it to me. DON’T come to this Olive Garden!! Their service is terrible!

My best friend treated me to lunch last week here. We had a peculiar server. I am not saying a name or gender because I don't want to insult them. They did a magnificent job. Every service point was hit. The food was fine, but man...the service sticks out. If management sees this, you know who i am talking about. Hold on to them.

I took my grandma here after church. The food was great. My only real issue was my grandma got a dirty fork. We asked to get a new one and had to wait for a bit until after the food came to get a new fork to eat with. I drink alot of fluids normally. The waitress kept up with my drink demands. We had a great time.

Very clean, very friendly. Originally went to the olive garden in texas city. We had to walk out. The tables were falling apart, the silverware and glasses were dirty and stained. The chairs were horribly dirty. Stained and dusty. It was very uncomfortable to eat there. If the dinning room area looked like that, I could only imagine what the kitchen looked like. Bayarea was a much better choice we will continue to eat there for sure.

Like the new look. Prices kinda high except for lunch. Been going to Olive Garden for over 40 yrs . Need to bring back the wine sample so we can buy more wine and waiter needs to stop at your table and ask how is everything not walk past you and scream do you need anything from across the dining room . Also suggest dessert and don't give your change from the ticket to another waiter and the other waiter says thank you. Ugh. Is lunch lasagna only two layers?

Food was good, but the staff was Amazing! Wife and I came in, and although it was a full house, we were seated right away. There was a very slight (and I mean VERY SLIGHT) delay in being attended to, which was no point of concern to my wife and I since it was extremely busy, but Ms. Clarissa and Mr. Noel came by to apologize and took amazing care of us. I highly recommend this location.

Cleanliness was 5 stars Food was 2 stars and thats being generous Service: our table had 2 servers. The young man was outstanding. The young lady was nice and upbeat but not very attentive to what the table needed. I would give the service 3 stars The food is mediocre and not very appetizing. I would choose an authentic Italian restaurant if you're absolutely craving Italian food. This is not it. It taste like it came out of a box and into the microwave. Over priced for the food

The bartender was great! Food was disappointing. Charged $3 for extra meat sauce. been awhile since I've been to this location thought I'd give it a try. and again was disappointed. I just got the lunch Soup and salad. way too much dressing on the salad it wasn't even enjoyable. first started off with the minestrone soup that was a mistake, it needed salt. tried the chicken gnocchi as my second soup, much better. it has always been my preferred.

It's a shame that all the decorations and dining experience is ruined by having a massive glowing tablet on your table. Let waiters do their job and make it an enjoyable experience. Their food is a bit overpriced for what it is but their brand has a strong carry. If anything it's the McDonald's of sit-down pasta. Over the years their offerings have become more streamlined and corporate.

Sib was amazing. He is one of the best servers I’ve ever had. He’s very personable and charismatic and made some great recommendations from the menu. He never let my drink get below the halfway point. He always had a full drink ready for me before my current one ran out. If you ever dine at this Olive Garden, you should definitely ask to sit in Sib’s section

Enjoy coming here however can be hit or miss when it comes to service and food quality. But the wifey loves the soup and salad so we always come back. The atmosphere is always calm and welcoming. Sometimes the wait can be a bit too much. The staff is always nice but they can get busy and drink refreshed can take some time. Ask for extra breadsticks early so you dont have to wait for them. Try coming here during the holidays and no-go, totally too busy so have some patience.

Now I waited 20 plus mins for my order, also watched several other customers arrive and receive orders drive away.. I finally got out and asked about my order... I was asked who I was and what I ordered, then was told it is being prepared... Online order pointless complete waste of time

Abi our server was fantastic. We went for dinner and had the pleasure of sitting at the Bar as there was a decent wait. She was amazingly courteous and great with the customers. During our meal the servers went down so they had to do manual tickets, she apologized for the wait and did everything to expedite our ticket. We received the receipt later on as promised and she handled everything with aplomb. 10/10 service would return!

They took my name and number but I checked yet and when I went up to the counter, I told the gal I name is Randy and she goes Brandy and I said do you know a lot of guys named Brandy. She then got super rude with me and was talking down to me. This employee is a bad representation for your company. It's sad you have people like this working for your establishment. I asked to speak to the manager and she said she would talk with her. I would definitely recommend dining at a different location.

  • chris cochran

This place has the absolute worst service. We arrived and were seated promptly. However, we waited over 25 mins for a server to come and take our order. Now we are waiting over 45 mins for our food to come. I wish I could say this was a one time thing but this has happened multiple times. I have brought it up to Mangement but it seems like nothing has changed.

Sat there for 15 minutes earlier today. & No-one even offered us a drink. It wasn't even that busy. The waitress just kept checking on others asking if they needed more bread or water, but left us dry and hanging. Me and the misses politely walked out & took out business elsewhere. The only reason I'm here on this review is because it was highly inconvenient, as I was really craving their Shrimp Scampi, but had to settle for other food. Hopefully they get it together

  • Victoria Pinon

Probably came at the worst time (lunch) But it sucked. My coworkers and my husband were all hangry. To be honest they need more personnel during mid shift. Food was great but it took almost 25 minutes for us to get our drinks and then 30 after that for our food. We kinda just chugged it all and left. But we had great conversations and laughs.

This Olive Garden has consistently been very good. The food is always hot and delicious, the service is great, and the prices are somewhat reasonable. The prices have definitely gone up in recent years, but I feel that you get good value here. The unlimited soup or salad with your entree is always a nice bonus. Never tried the drinks or dessert here so I can't speak to that.

This is my best experience at an Olive Garden. The food was on point and what you remembered when they first opened. The managers Ashley and Vanessa went around to make sure everyone had what they needed and were enjoying their experience. On top of that, our waiter was the absolute best. Please ask for Jordan so you're experience can be as good as mine.

It was a busy day during lunch time and I had a 14 minute wait but it went but quicker than that. Food was good, service was outstanding and the place was clean. Price is very affordable. The breadsticks are to die for... I had the Italian Margarita, and make your own pasta. Great place for causal Italian cuisine. I would definitely recommend this anyone look for a nice place to dine.

Something went wrong in the kitchen the day we were there, we didn't get any appetizers and our food wasn't great. They did take 30% off the bill after I let them know we never got salad or breadsticks, but this visit was really disappointing in general.

The food has been tapering down in flavor the last few times. The wait staff was good until we couldn't get a refill on our drinks. It's kind of a bummer. We used to enjoy a meal here.

Went to dinner with my family and we had such a great time. We waited only about 5 minutes to seat 7 of us. Our waitress, Eleni, was absolutely fabulous. We received quick and friendly service. She checked on us often to see if we need anything. The food was also very good.

I was pleasantly surprised they were able to seat 7 of us quickly on a Saturday night. Our waiter John was amazing, the reason of this review. He was super diligent, kind, kept up with the drinks, the order, checking on us. He was such a nice guy. The chicken I ordered was questionable but not the end of the world. Back to our usual Soup and Salad.

  • Tina Smith

We kept the server running back and forth for things we forgot to ask for the last time she was there, but through it all, she stayed pleasant and polite.

Its Olive Garden, if you've been here you know it's good food. What made our experience great was Dom! He was very attentive to the end. There was a mix up at the beginning with who our server was but once Dom came out service was excellent. That kind of service is what brings people back.

The best thing that separates this location from any other Olive Garden is the greatest customer service from the Host and wait staff. Food is Great as usual. I can't express enough the customer service experience is top notch! Five star Host that make you feel like a VIP.

I usually enjoy Olive Garden Chicken Alfredo but this time there was something off with the texture of the chicken. I ended up just eating more of the toscana soup which was still great.

I usually don't care to go to olive garden but this was an awesome experience. What I hate is to go into an older restaurant and the old smell overwhelms me (like TC). Good was good, wait staff was great and atmosphere was good as we were put in a semi- private area.

Out of all of the olive gardens I've been to, this was by far the best experience I have EVER had. We had the absolute best server. Her name was McKenna. Cant believe how satisfied we were! The food was great, and they even gave us a cheesecake with a candle for my birthday. LOVED IT.

We love the Pasta Fazioli and the bread sticks. We do take out usually. It’s easy using the app. Just let them know which slot you are in and they bring it out on time.
