olive garden has really great food,nice atmosphere and is reasonable - you get soup or salad with an entree,and breadsticks,and most entrees are 10-15 bucks,it's my favorite place to go to have a nice time out,and not break the bank. :) stay away from appetizers and dessert to save $,or share one.

The Olive Garden is an upper end chain restaurant on a par with Red Lobster or some of the other chain places.
The food is usually shipped in and most if not all is pre-made, not cooked on the premises. It is good decent food for a reasonable price.
What I think of as really expensive is usually $100 and above for a couple. Olive Garden is not near that ...
but, why don't you check the Olive Garden website since it has a zip code window and can take you to your local OG's menu with the prices and all?

That's pretty good!
For a nice upscale time, it is a good place. For a really special occasion it is not really great unless money is tight, that's my opinion.

I don't know where you live, but I can compare prices. It's priced like Applebee's. Cheaper than Red Lobster. It's less than $10 for pasta without meat, and the dinners are usually around $15 each, with soup/salad and all that stuff.
Good date place, if that's what you're looking for...

It is cheaper than Red Lobster and the entrees run about 10-20 dollars. The appetizers are expensive. The salad is good and you can have as much as you want.

Get the daily salad and 1/2 sandwich lunch special. Everyone gets a sample of wine. Tell all at the table to take it, even if they don't want it. That way, someone gets a free glass of wine!!

It's priced about the same as any other restaurant in that range, like Applebee's, Tumbleweed, whatever. It's not outrageous, but it is a little pricey. Pricier than KFC anyway... :)

It's reasonably priced. I usually order "chicken strips" & a bowl of pasta fagoli soup. Yummy!!!

Olive Garden is by far the absolute worst food you can eat. It's not only an incredibly bad excuse for Italian food, it's a horrible excuse for a restaurant. Even if it cost me $1.15 to eat a full meal there, I would pass. Why would anyone want to go there? WHY?
