What diners say — our read

The headline average flatters this listing; the recent half does not. Opinion on how guests are treated is split — those reviews land at 3.9 on average. After that, speed of service appears most often — 46% of the corpus, averaging 3.0.

The split is 10 positive to 3 negative across 13 rated reviews. 5 stars is the modal score, given by 10 of the 13 reviewers who rated.

On the inspection side the picture is cleaner: DBPR graded this kitchen an A (95/100), with 5 basic violations. Whatever the reviews argue about, sanitation is not the weak point. That inspection was on June 16, 2026. Across its inspection history the kitchen is improving, which argues for giving it the benefit of the doubt. That puts it ahead of 61% of graded kitchens in Orange County. Among the items recorded were dishwashing facilities and nonfood-contact surfaces clean.

With both signals pointing the same way, there is little to argue about on this listing. The individual reviews are below, newest first, if you want the raw material.

    Excelente lugar, recomendado. Las porciones son generosas. Aunque en el menú si tiene una versión "lite", pero me di cuenta tarde. Tuve algo de problemas con el menu (solo inglés) pero algo que una celular con internet no pueda solucionar. Sugeriría un QR con el menu en diferentes idiomas.

    Bad review: because when they gave me my plate the first time they gave me only 1 piece of chicken, because of my surprised face the waiter noticed and took the plate again to place more chicken, and when they give me the plate I see that the chicken is tonally burnt, it is a leg with carbonara sauce the chicken should not be so burnt, and little pasta. It should be noted that the day before I ate at another venue and it was great and that's why I was able to realize the difference.

    I dined in here this week! It's probably going to be my last time! While the food is great your prices are getting ridiculous! I'll be ordering takeout next time! Or maybe I'll find a more affordable Italian restaurant! Thank-you! My bill was $36 for one person!

    Einfach super leckeres Essen. Es gibt zu jedem Hauptgericht eine Suppe oder einen Salat wahlweise dazu, ebenfalls ganz leckere Breadsticks. Alleine daran könnte ich mich schon satt essen. Von einigen Gerichten gibt es auch kleinere Portionen, für mich einfach ideal. Die "normalen" Portionen schaffe ich fast nicht. Softdrinks werden auch nachgefüllt. Eine tolle Restaurantkette, die ich immer in den USA besuche und mich jedesmal darauf freue.

    Tonight we had a fantastic meal here at The Olive Garden. All the food that was served to us tasted fantastic, no complaints. The free breadsticks tasted better than the last time we visited a few years ago. The portion sizes are huge, we struggled to eat it all. The free refills of soup, salad or breadsticks with every meal was a nice touch. The server was polite, prompt and well presented. The toilets were spotlessly clean. I can recommend eating at this Olive Garden.

    Very bad attention from the girl at the entrance we asked her to sit us at another table and she made us wait. The tables were empty and then he sat us at a bigger table than normal and served us at the end I had to order the food to go
