Reviews for Olive Garden Italian Restaurant in Waite Park, MN

I've always loved Olive Garden, but I hadn't been to one in quite a while since our local one closed. While traveling, we... decided to stop at one because we missed it. While the food was amazing just like we remembered, and our server Sam was veryattentive, the atmosphere seemed like it had slid a notch. The table we were at had loose uneven chairs, the restaurant wasfreezing, the salt grinder was empty, and the silverware was so water spotted I initially thought it was dirty. We will goback to another Olive Garden when we pass through a city that has one, but I hope it's taken care of a little better than thisone. Read more

Who doesn't love Olive garden! Love the food, friendliness and accommodation of the staff, and the atmosphere ???? Keep up the... hard work! Prices are often better than junk food as well! Why have junk when you can have quality homemade food in a homeyatmosphere. As always your breadsticks and salads are wonderful ?? Read more

Our overall experience was fantastic! The service started at the host podium and both staff were friendly and welcoming. Once... seated, our server came over and got our drink order and due to us already knowing we were getting the unlimited soup and salad,we ordered right away! Our salad was out swiftly, but she promptly informed us that our soup choice was being made at the momentso we could pick a different one to avoid a wait, which I thought was great service instead of making is wait without knowing.Cannot rave enough about the St. Cloud, MN Olive Garden!

I know it's a chain. I know it seems like it's always busy. But that fettuccine Alfredo was worth it! Delicious! I did... everything but lick the bowl. I will definitely be ordering that again the next time I'm there. Read more

Its fast service, and good food that I like. And that's what we had. Fast service and good food. My wife and I both ordered our... own entrees, and brought have of them both home for leftovers. Wife's soup was really good, as was my salad. It just feels likegoing out for dinner is getting really expensive. $60 for two people, without alcoholic beverages seems like a lot. Maybe it'sjust me.

Tonight’s delicious meal was made even more amazing by our server, Zach, who was attentive but not overbearing, polite, and... personable. His knowledge of the menu was spot on despite his being new to this industry. I really appreciated his genuineconcern that we enjoy our meal. Thank you, Zach! Read more

The decoration of the place is very nice, it is well decorated, everything is very clean, the staff is super friendly, they take... good care of you, the food was fast, we did not wait long, a salad or soup is included with the main course and they give it toyou before your main course is ready and you can serve yourself as many times as you want, the food is very tasty and you feelthat the ingredients are fresh, I ordered a tiramisu and it was good. I give it four stars because I feel that the prices arevery expensive, but is worthy. Read more
