The wait is WAY TOO LONG, don't w/o calling 1st and make a reservation ahead of time, I waited for 1hr and 30 mins and they still were unable to get me a table and told me to wait...

Editorial review from Citysearch 4/2/2013

No, longer my first, second, third choice for eating out. We had dinner tonight at the Olive Garden, the service from our waitress was worse than awful. She came to the table, told us her name and ask to take our order. We overheard the waiter serving the table next to us explaining the order/take home deal as well as the 2 for 25. Not our waitress - after taking our order we never saw her, until she brought us the check. When I spend my money, I want good food and as good service.\r \r Just a reminder for the manager, we were seated next to the wine racks in the back of the restaurant, the smell from the dishes, and dirty rags was not appealing! more

Bad Service 10/8/2011

The wait is WAY TOO LONG, don't w/o calling 1st and make a reservation ahead of time, I waited for 1hr and 30 mins and they still were unable to get me a table and told me to wait for another 10 more mins for only a party of 4. I don't think I was being unreasonable. more

Best Bar Area Service 8/4/2010

My grandma and I enjoy going for lunch and everytime we have gone for lunch we have recieved the best service from the bar area. Timely and delicious, it's always too long of a wait for the dining room. more

changes? 10/22/2008

Now that management has changed, this Olive Garden is a little better. There are still troubles with stocking but there have definitely been fewer incidents where the restaurant was out of a certain food. more

Don't go there for lunch unless you are not hungry! 2/25/2008

I have been to a lot of Olive Gardens before, who hasn't, I have even been to this particular one before. Must have been a bad day for the place because, they were out of everything and so I was left to order a sampler appetizer for lunch. Pros: poor service Cons: poor service more

Olive Garden 1/7/2007

After working in the restaurant business for a few years now, and working at this particular Olive Garden in Sacramento, I would not recommend it. There is a reason why this particular Olive Garden has a ridiculously high turn over rate; management. How can a restaurant run smoothly when the kitchen staff are all illegal immigrants from Mexico and cannot speak English? It is also difficult to have motivation to work as an employee when your boss does not care about you and does not have any type of loyalty to the employee. Pros: too many to list Cons: none more

A good experience 2/9/2005

With a group of seven for lunch, I had a pleasant experience. The waiter was very friendly and prompt in responding to our requests. The food is standard Olive Garden fare, so it's just Italian food with nothing special in particular. We did enjoy the endless salad, and the waiter made sure that every time we came close to finishing our bowl, he brought a new one. Pros: plenty of parking, friendly staff, quiet more

Not my first choice in Sac restaurants.. 6/1/2002

I have been to this place a number of times... out of those times my party has been forgotten twice... once being at my 21st birthday party! The food is okay... I believe that you pay for the atmosphere and not so much for the food... The soup and salad is the best thing to order but I think that if you must hit the Olive Garden do youself a favor and go to the Modesto location... Cons: sucky service, long waits more
